Can't add my first accessory to Homebridge
hayesmccarty opened this issue · comments
Current Situation
Downloaded Homebridge on my iMac and tried to add both the ring and ADT accessories. In both instances I got an error message 243 and an error EACCES. Please help. I am not a coder and can't understand what to do next. I have searched all the help and support files on the Homebridge site but can't find any answers.
