I had this app running successfully for months. I recently reinstalled it, and recreated several child apps, as before. Unfortunately, now I am having multiple devices respond (3 of 6), even though only Follow Me is the chosen playback device. My log for the Virtual Follow Me device is a long list of this: "java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke method driverToChildApp() on null object on line 463 (method sendFollowMeSpeaker)"
All trigger devices are motion sensors, which are working fine. Echo Speaks is working fine, and no ES Zones are currently created.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot? I really enjoy using this app. I have reinstalled Echo Speaks as the latest attempt at troubleshooting, but no luck.
Hmmm. After a few hours, I went in to one of the child apps and had it create a new virtual device. I changed all of the child apps to point to that new vdevice, and now everything appears to be working as expected. We are once again up and running with this great app! Thanks!
Really excited but having trouble getting this going. When creating the child cannot create a virtual device (see error below), nor can I create a virtual device with the follow me driver manually. I hope I'm not way off...
EDIT: Just reboot the Hubitat and it's working - I'll leave this here in case others get the same error app:4582022-09-17 01:33:21.259 pm debugFollow Me unable to create device - java.lang.RuntimeException: java.sql.SQLException: Connections could not be acquired from the underlying database!
Heya! Thanks for all these great apps. I have Event Engine configured to send a standard Push notification to mobile app devices, and the notifications don't ever send even though I can tell the events are right. I realized there was a note in the "speaker options" section indicating this app was necessary for audio alerts - is it needed for push notifications too?
Actually, come to think of it, how can I confirm the automation triggers are right? I turned on debug logging in the cog but I can't tell where it's writing those logs to. Maybe a question better suited to an Event Engine thread but the two apps are related here for me.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply! I am not sure where to find the debug log, I can probably figure out the issue on my own if I could. I enabled debugging and the debug log but don't see where that data is routed. I looked through the system logs and didn't see anything. Where could I look?
Also, here's the cog description:
Event Engine Cog (3.8.5) - You left the garage door open! (43) Conditions
***** Cog will fire when ALL Condition are true (Using AND) - By Contact Sensor: [Garage Door] - ClosedOpen: true, ANDOR: false
The idea is that if that garage contact sensor is open, and both presence switches toggle to inactive (indicating nobody remains at home) a notification will be sent. Pretty straightforward in concept.
Oh, well that's weird! It was there before. Maybe I messed something up. I did have the "include cog name in message" toggle turned on though. Anyway, I added a message and it still didn't send anything.
Event Engine Cog (3.8.5) - You left the garage door open! (43)
Conditions
***** Cog will fire when ALL Condition are true (Using AND) - By Contact Sensor: [Garage Door] - ClosedOpen: true, ANDOR: false
Howdy again @bptworld - I noticed just now that though this new release you built fixed the notification errors, the notifications always include "null" in the push alerts now. Whether text is specified in the notification or not, whether "include cog name" is checked or not.
Description:
Event Engine Cog (3.8.6) - You left the garage door open! (43)
Conditions
***** Cog will fire when ALL Condition are true (Using AND) - By Contact Sensor: [Garage Door] - ClosedOpen: true, ANDOR: false
Screenshot of debug log attached with the message highlighted - it's set to %time% now just as a test, but literally any string in that message area is ignored and replaced with "null"
Also, the "voice setup option" summary isn't correct. Appears it's repeating the first item "voiceFun" but the item values are correct for each. I can't get the voices to work yet though.
