I have no idea Which webserver? We aren't talking abiout Haiku's webserver right? I didn't install another one? I do have the web directory so now what? How can this be so hard. What docs did you follow initially because I feel bad you are holding my hand?
Did you start apache per my earlier message: Here are some instructions <https://coolestguide...-11-el-capitan/>. Once the file is in place and the web server (apache) is running, you can go to the URL (the php file) and it should talk to HH.
The ports used by the webserver (apache), the bridge, and Haiku are all distinct. The Echo talks to the bridge which in turn talks to the webserver (via those urls) which in turn talks to HH which in turn talks to the HAI. Simple, right? (LOL)
Yes I am starting to understand. I got apache running (question will it always restart or is this another manual thing I have to run?) now I need to get PHP working I guess because the php file isn't running or being processed
I don't think I followed any docs, but it did take a little while to work it out. First make sure you have the webserver working. The make sure that when you call the URL that talks to HH, it does what you want. The add the device(s) and url(s) to the bridge. Then ask Alexa to discover the devices.
Ok I uncommented the PHP - which was hard because I am using brackets and i Had to run it as sudo. I will eventually document this for the next shmuck who bothers to try this. The php file now renders nothing so I think thats a good sign. Im going to go try some more stuff. Thanks!
From your Alexa app on your phone, go to Settings, Smart Home, Discover Devices. If the bridge is working, it should say it found devices. At that point you can ask Alexa to turn on/off the device
