Action collection error

Code: Select all
   Action Collection Error         couldn't set brightness of device id 1361545668, check to make sure it's still available.

This isn't messing anything up, but it does pop up in the log now and then. I just went through every one of my Hue devices and could not find anything with that device ID. How can I track this down?

That's the Indigo ID, not the Hue address...

Hmmmm... OK. My question remains though. Also when I search my Devices for that ID, no result. When I sort all my devices by ID, no device with that number is in evidence.

Well, that's the error message isn't it? Something in the action group is referencing a device (with that ID) that no longer exists.

Absolutely. Trouble is the deleted device seems to be in an action group (or something else) that doesn't show any activity in the log. So I can't find the bit of code trying to to reach the deleted device.

You can open the Indigo database file in a raw text editor and then search for that ID number in the XML (recommended you do this on a backup of the database). Then you can try to find the <Name> for the enclosing object in the XML. If you need help then copy/paste a chunk of the XML around the ID, including a few dozen lines both before and after the ID.
