barrygordon Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Feb 16 2018 11:22 Alexa has stopped responding to UDI related (ISY Portal) commands. Alexa works for strictly amazon things. Anyone else seeing this Link to comment
ScotnTim Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Yes, also cannot connect using the Mobilinc app. Can connect to module locally. Its appearing to be the server. Link to comment

gweempose Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Just checked, and it's working for me. Link to comment
barrygordon Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thanks Michel please post when you believe it to be working. Thanks Barry. Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Barry, Please send your UUID and error log to support@universal-devices.com. Everything seems to be working fine on the portal/server side. Perhaps DNS related? With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
barrygordon Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 No need. It is working now. Thankws. (Just take credit or fixing it ) Link to comment
Kevin Cannon Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 As at 12:50 February 16 2018 I am receiving not responding errors from Alexa for any device I try. Link to comment
Kevin Cannon Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Appears all is working as at 3:40 PM for me now ! Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hello everyone, The server on which one of the proxies is running is intermittent. We are still in contact with Amazon. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
sdcrane Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Is this still an issue? I am getting "not responding" by Alexa for every one of my ISY devices. Worked fine a half hour ago and nothing has changed on my end. Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Hi sdcrane, One of the proxies was down between 10:44 and 10:57 UTC ... around the same time as this post. Do you still have this problem? All these intermittent issues revolve around one proxy the hardware for which was replaced (based on Amazon accounts). We will terminate this instance completely and recreate everything on a new hardware ourselves on Sunday. Cannot afford all the intermittent issues. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
strahan001 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Hi there, Odd item here, around 1130 CT all was good, then all of a sudden Alexa wouldn't turn anything on. I rebooted the Echo, the ISY, removed and re-added the switch, same thing. I say "Alexa Kitchen on" Kitchen does nothing, if I turn it on, then repeat "Alexa Kitchen on", the kitchen turns off. Wicked odd. Link to comment
stusviews Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 After you re-added the switch to the ISY, did you update the device in the portal (delete and add back)? Did you update the device in the Alexa app (delete and add back)? If not, then delete the device from the app first and the from the portal and go through the adding process again. Link to comment
strahan001 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I sat down and methodically went through the steps and documented them below.. Using the Alexa App, I "forgot all" and clicked discover Tested Alexa by Saying "Alexa Kitchen on", the light did not turn on, however as before, if I turned it on manually then asked to turn it on, the light actually turned off Result Fail Using the Alexa App, I "Forgot All" Using the ISY Portal, I removed the device, readded the device to the ISY Portal Using the Alexa App I clicked discover Tested Alexa by Saying "Alexa Kitchen on", the light did not turn on, however as before, if I turned it on manually then asked to turn it on, the light actually turned off Result Fail Using the Alexa App, I "Forgot All" Using the ISY Portal, I removed the device Using the Admin Console for the ISY Device I removed the device, then readded the device Using the ISY Portal, I added the device Using the Alexa App, I clicked Discover Tested Alexa by Saying "Alexa Kitchen on", the light turned on This points to that something occurred with the ISY? Am I going to need to go through and redo all the lights in my ISY, scenes? Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 strahan001, You should not have to do that. The questions are: 1. Is ISY Portal reflecting the correct state of your devices (name/address)? 2. Can you control these devices from the Admin Console or from the Web Interface on ISY Portal? With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 All, update on the recent issues with the portal: As per Amazon, there's a bug with a specific type of instance we use (m5.large) whereby it stops responding to health checks and then it will have to be rebooted (and moved to a different hardware). The problem is that we recently migrated to m5.large because of bandwidth problems with Alexa and cannot go back. We are actively working with Amazon to find a resolution. In the meantime, the load balancer is working properly: in case any of the instances go offline, the other will take over. On Sunday, may add another proxy to the mix just in case. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
strahan001 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Michel, The ISY Portal reflects the status of the device, as does the Administrative console, as does Mobilinc, and in all three cases I can toggle the devices off and on. Very odd.. Link to comment

It looks like your Alexa requests are coming in today successfully. Are you still experiencing problems? If so, would you have a specific device that you are trying that is not working? Please let me know which one. Also, I notice that you are still using the Alexa V2 skill. I would recommend switching to V3. Thanks, Benoit Link to comment
strahan001 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Hi there Benoit thank you for looking into my issue. I upgraded to v3, forgot all devices and re discovered, same issues. The one that is working "kitchen" due to me removing it completely from the ISY and re-adding it. Kitchen Table is one that is not working. Link to comment

Do they actually work, or do you still have an issue? If they still don't work, the issue is not with ISY Portal. If so, please try turning it on/off from UDAjax or the admin console. If they don't work, this needs to be fixed. Michel could help. Benoit Link to comment
