Widget display "App not ready"

Dashboards
1

Hey

I’m not sure if I’m under the correct Topic but I’m developing a new app for Homey.

The new version has a widget. When running the “homey app run”-command, the widget is working.

But

  1. If I run the “homey app install”. The widget section has been removed from app.json so that no widgets can be added to the dashboard.
  2. If I run the “homey app publish”, move the app to test, and install the app from the dev dashboard, the widget displays an error message: “App not ready”. Not even after I have re-added the widget.

Any advise how to fix this?

I’m not a dev, but I would post it under the section “Developers” on the mail Community page! :wink:

Did you create the widget using homey app widget create? The “App not ready” message means that your app is not running, but it is installed and the widget exists. There can be several reasons:

  • You have disabled the app (check More→Apps→[your app]→Settings (top right corner))
  • The app is still starting
  • The app has crashed (you should automatically receive an email with the crash details when installing from the test version)

I fixed. I’m not sure how, but I had double-registered the capabilities and flow. I cleaned up the code, and it worked
