ERROR : harmonyWebServiceLogin : Logitech web service response does not contain a login authorization token

[Ron Witkamp]

I got a

LOGITECH WEB SERVICE LOGIN : FAILURE
ERROR : harmonyWebServiceLogin : Logitech web service response does not contain a login authorization token

error running HarmonyHubControl on my Windows XP as well on my Windows 7 PC. Hub is pingable, username and password for Myharmony.com are correct. Any idea what can cause this error???

Regards,

Ron

Nobody else with this problem???

[Tloram]

I am getting the same error, did you figure out what the issue is?

[Ron Witkamp]

Hi Tloram, no, I did not solve it yet. I have a feeling nobody else is reading my cry for help :-) So again for all readers or better the developer of this program: Help!!!

hi! my productive binary is some month old so I tried to reproduce your problem with current master. (un-)fortunately I don't have that problem - it just works.
under which os are you trying and did you compile your binary yourself?
are you sure your commandline args are completely correct?
( as in
HarmonyHubControl [email] [password] [harmony_ip] [command (optional)
)
did you try to reset your harmonyhub (mine rarely lost wifi connection through a lousy wifi repeater and didn't work correctly afterwards - a reboot fixed this.
I hope logitech didn't push a $destructive firmware update, but I'd guess the hubs will pull those on their own, no matter if you want that or not(?).
I'm not very often in here so I hope someone else tries to help as well.
good luck so far!

Even after several reboots of the HUB is cannot get this software working. I can ping the HUB without problems by the way.

I just wanted to tell you:
Compiles well on Raspberry Pi by simply running make.
Commands like get_config, list_commands or list_activities take a minute or more, but running commands is fast.

I tried the python version from jterrace but could not get it to run (failed somewhere after authentication).

Your C version is running well.
If you have a glue why it waits so long after the successful login, you might give me a hint ;-)

Thanks!

Just for info:
I had exactly the same error after I created the binary by "make" (on Linux) and copied it elsewhere. You do have to copy the "*.o" - files, too. I also created a "HarmonyHub.Authorizationtoken" - file and made sure my script has write permissions to it.

Just copying the binary does not work

Maybe this helps some one.

Hi!
I've got the same error. I tried to change password and others.
While compilation I've got pair warnings. May be this is a problem.

I've been using this on a Raspberry Pi with Home Assistant, and it WAS working fine, but now I get the "Logitech web service response does not contain a login authorization token" error if I run a command line from any directory that does NOT have HarmonyHub.AuthorizationToken in it. If I copy that file into another directory, that directory will then work.

The problem is that my Home Assistant scripts are not working, which execute the exact same command. So I think I need to know what directory to copy HarmonyHub.AuthorizationToken so it will, or how to include the HarmonyHubControl path in a configuration file someplace.

Any ideas?

Has anyone got this or any other variant of HarmonyHub software working recently?
I've built and tested and cannot login.
