lavish shard
#

I installed a nextCloud custom addon. And it requires me to edit config.php file

raven tinsel
#

XY-problem 🙂

lavish shard
#

So i need to get access to the files within the container

raven tinsel
#

That doesn't work, as that is not persistent

#

anything editted in an add-on container is lost later

#

So, my guess is you are misunderstanding the instructions

lavish shard
#

You mean lost at an update

raven tinsel
#

do you have a link to that add-on for me?

raven tinsel
lavish shard
#

The original repo is abandoned

#

This is a fork

raven tinsel
#

You mean this part?

lavish shard
#

No. Config.php

raven tinsel
#

The documentation you linked of that add-on doesn't list that?

lavish shard
#

I'm having this issue

#

That requires editing of the config.php which is inside of that addon container

#

nextCloud configuration is mostly manual for stuff like enabling https

raven tinsel
#

Right, that should be exposed in the add-on instead

#

editting files inside the add-on itself is not right and not how it should be solved

#

(as you already noticed by my responses above)

lavish shard
#

So when i reboot HA, my nextCloud configuration will be wiped?

raven tinsel
#

?

lavish shard
#

You said that files inside the container are not persistent

raven tinsel
#

Correct

#

in the container itself it will not presist

#

It applies the config by env variables

lavish shard
#

Then what i can do is make a docker volume

raven tinsel
#

No

#

you can't that part is handled by HA Supervisor

#

if you need manual stuff you have 2 choices:

#
  • Fix the add-on
lavish shard
#

Oh the data is stored on the share dir

raven tinsel
#

?

#

omg

lavish shard
#

The link you sent sets the config folder on an smb share

#

This way it doesn't save the config inside the container

raven tinsel
#

why does it even handle env variables in that case? :S

lavish shard
#

For first time setup

lament otter
#

I'm going to just say it:

#

This add-on sounds absolutely terrible, you shouldn't use it

brittle night
raven tinsel
#

Yup that might be a good source as well

#

Having to go into containers to edit files means either of the following:

  • Adding needs to be fixed or extended
  • One is doing it wrong 😬
  • Look for a better one
  • You are wanting something excotic, an add-on might not be a solution to go for.

With the Grocy addon. It turns on my torch whenever it attempts to do the barcode scanning. Which is then blinding and causes it to fail to scan anything, any ideas on turning it off? I've searched through the menus best I can. Hidden config item maybe?

There's also FEATURE_FLAG_AUTO_TORCH_ON_WITH_CAMERA which is a config option, you should be able to configure that

Hi all, I've been searching for a good source of actionable information for a layperson on InfluxDB.autogen downsampling.

#

The InfluxDB web repository refers to a completely different version nowadays as compared to the add-on in HA, making it difficult to translate functionally.

#

Has anyone encountered a how-to on setting up appropriate queries to down sample existing data, modifying the defult autogen database and setting up buckets for everything?

So what's the deal with Z-WaveJS lately??? A year or so ago everything worked tickety-boo but these last 4-6 months or so, I've had several devices go ☹️ . Today I restarted my host ODROID and I had 6 of them come up ☹️ - 2 locks, 3 iBlinds and 1 switch. A simple ping restores them but I have repeatedly had a Zooz dimmer and one iBlind which have frequently gone ☹️ several times a week. I've made no changes in z-wave, zigbee, BT or my wi-fi for almost a year now... 😥

trying to get the amcrest add-on to work. I am getting login error but my credentials work for the amcrest app. are they're different credentials? ```
amcrest:

  • host: 192.168.xxx.xxx
    username: !secret amcrest_username
    password: !secret amcrest_password
    name: Garage Doorbell
    binary_sensors:
    • motion_detected
    • online

That looks like an integration

#

Most Amcrest devices use “admin” for the username, even if you’ve configured another username in their app.

@woven vault if you have the add-ons it's all in the documentation tab of the add-on. At least try somewhat before spamming a very vague question

#

The cloudflared addon doesnt need letsencrypt

#

What are you reading?

#

Didn't you say you had your own domain? You would make use of that at cloudflare and follow the rest of the instructions

Hey, I wanted to ask you which addon you use best and easiest for creating the flow.

analog bridge
#

Any idea why I can access Raspberry Pi HAOS interface fine over a site to site VPN but not the MotionEye interface?

#

I can't directly see the camera feed for some reason over the VPN.

bitter skiff
#

It really doesn't sound like you're following the docs. You can use additional_hosts in the Cloudflared addon to expose additional services beyond HA and if you need to, there's a config for Nginix Proxy Manager if you're looking to go that route, but neither of those require you to do any certificate or TLS set up. Cloudflare will take care of that on the external side.

#

To my knowledge you need to access it over a secure connection, I don't believe it itself needs control of the certificates

analog bridge
#

They are connected with remote homeassist.

bitter skiff
#

I'd imagine it shouldn't if ssl: false

#

I'm sure it does... but with out additional details on what it "doesnt do", it's difficult to see where you've gone wrong

#

Adding an additional certificate won't magically make cloudflare do anything

@zinc terrace have you made any progress? My MariaDB just completely collapsed again during the day with nothing to explain why.

#

None of the backups are working, and there doesn't seem to be anyone able to assist here, so I am slowly devolving into madness, losing data every day.

#

I'd love to take all the long terms starts, drop the current states and move to a brand new installation but doing it through myPHPadmin is also not working.

#

If anyone can offer any assistance how to get out of this vicious cycle, I would greatly appreciate it.

#
  1. HA OS in VM
  2. I have VM snapshots but these are every 2-3 days, so I always loose a day or two
#
  1. MariaDB seems to be corrupted somewhere or my HA OS is, but I can't move to a brand new VM becuase MariaDB backups are not working at all, they are always corrupted from a working DB.

I'm trying to move files to my media folder from my iPad using the Files app connected to the Samba share. I keep getting an error 100093, and people seem to believe it's related to readonly permissions. There are some configs people have used to tweak their Samba setup, but I can't find the "global" config.
Has anybody moved files to a samba share using the iOS Files app before? Any hints on configuring samba a bit more?

Hey Guys, i have a problem with my mosquitto broker add on. the integration didnt show me my tasmota hichi ir wifi reader for my electricity meter. i have set anything... did anyone have an idea what can i do?

jade wing
#

For everything else you have to define them manually

#

If you're not seeing the Tasmota device publish the payloads to the broker, that's a different problem

#

(still, if that's Tasmota, you should be using the Tasmota integration, not MQTT Discovery)

rich gull
#

but when i use the tasmota integration, data will updated every 3-4 minutes

#

and the reader send information every second

jade wing
#

Are the MQTT topics being updated every second?

Hey so bad news. It looks like the backup is restoring fine now. This was failing on my test server which has more constrained resources. Particularly it's likely that the disk space was the problem. I'm going to resize the VM image now before I stand up my test server and see if that fixes the issue. But after standing things up on my desktop where there are plenty of resources, it seems like mariadb is restoring OK now

#

So you might be on your own :/

#

You said your prod DB seems fine though? Like no errors in logs anywhere?

#

Just problematic when you restore?

#

There's the phpMyAdmin addon where you can look at your data

#

Not sure what that would help with but just an idea

#

Otherwise you might want to get pretty familiar with mariadb

#

Try bringing the table or w/e files over to a standalone mariadb instance and see if it works there

#

And just read up more on the underlying architecture of mariadb to understand what those different file types are that it said were corrupt

Should InfluxDB 'install' for 10-20 min just downloading the image?

#

I've restarted HA, removed InfluxDB

#

Tried again, same story

#

When restarted it again it was listed in the addons, but corrupted, so I removed it again.

#

Tried rebooting the VM (plenty of space on the virtual drive - 100GB), still downloading for 10 min

#

Is there any way to check if it's an upstream issue with the image?

#

And finally Failed - unknown error....

I want to try and make an add-on to take readings from my water meter. Getting it running on a pi without ha needs the dev environment, rtl-sdr, rtl-wmbus, wmbusmeters, MQTT + usb access. Is it possible to do all this from within an add-on or do I need to get root access to hassio to install some of the stuff outside the add-on?

tiny zodiac
#

they're containers

#

you can pass the usb device to the container

i didnt realise someone had already worked on it thanks, ill give it a try

steep zealot
#

Works like a charm, as long as you can keep your adapter rebooting (since they often lock up).

#

Depending on your water meter, there are even auto-discovery scripts for MQTT

#

I've created one for IZAR meter, but it's still a PR and not in yet.

#

@zinc terrace have you ever seen this - I am really at my whits end. Tried 10 different ways to go from a working DB to a new instance and always get corrupted DBs both in influx and maria
https://i.imgur.com/2O0Sy99.png

#

I seem to be extra 'special' that no one else is having any such issues.

zinc terrace
#

Did you try just doing a partial restore of only maria?

steep zealot
#

Yes - 4 times. Doing it right now again with slightly different process.

#

Making small changes to my process and trying to figure out where the hell the issue is.

#

Just purged it to 3 days and left 500mb in it, just long term stats.

#

If this doesn't work, I have no idea what to do next

#

I am starting to believe it's the influx DB that is causing it

#

If the InfluxDB fails to backup correctly all the time and cases the backup files to be corrupted, this could explain things

zinc terrace
#

So if you just backup and restore maria it's fine?

steep zealot
#

Before it would fail every time

#

It's 530mb and it went through.

#

So there is that.

#

I will probably have to get the InfluxDB gutted to the absolute minimum and try then.

#

Do you by any chance know how to graph long term statistics? I'd like to check their integrity by can't figure out how

MotionEye is not uploading to the sftp server. I am getting no errors at all and I can add files just fine when I log into the sftp server myself.

marble oasis
#

the main document seems to indicate adding it to a conf file, but the add-on doesn't have any conf files to edit

steep zealot
#

I don't want to be one of these people - but google is your friend here. There are step-by-step guides you can use.
This said, since you are using IZAR meters, if you want I can upload the auto-discovery config I've created and you can just put it in, restart and have it autopopulate everything... 😉

#

You need to create an izar.json file in this folder

steep zealot
#

You need to identify which IDs are yours and which are for your neighbors. I use 2 meters, hence two entries.

marble oasis
#

I saw that information, ive no idea what to do with it though. I have added whats needed to the configuration.yaml at the end

#

The issue seems to be too specific to the add-on to get an answer from google

steep zealot
#

1st link from the top that isn't the actual addon

#

Step by step

#

I am being thick sometimes and can't follow what good people here are trying to tell me but that's just lazy...

marble oasis
#

it doesn't help because i don't understand where to add the meter information, I must have spent about 2 hours trying to figure it out

steep zealot
#

I've given you my config which is matching exactly the documentation and both of the step by step manuals, I really do know how to help you any further but to remote into your PC and copy paste the code from these websites into your addon config:
https://i.imgur.com/od7h5bg.png

marble oasis
#

the other addons i installed to adjust files only allow editing the config/yaml files, they don't give access to anything else

#

dont worry about it then, thanks for the help so far. I am just missing something major somewhere which is supposed to make this easy 😦

steep zealot
#

This couldn't be any simpler!

#

You have to understand that the process here is in many steps:

  1. The radio signal is detected
  2. The telegram is decoded
  3. The telegram information either matches the meters listed above or not
  4. If yes then this information is passed onto HA as a JSON
  5. You can then either create a manual MQTT sensor (as described in these two manuals) or use my autodiscovery JSON file (as described above) to have the entity auto create a nice meter
#

If that is not detailed enough, I must ask that you read through the information in these manuals and figure out what you don't understand. Then look for that answer, and so on until you get what you need.

marble oasis
#

I think I have it, my options page was different to yours, i needed to click the dots and choose to edit in yaml for it to swap over

steep zealot
#

But that is the same as any addon you've ever installed....

marble oasis
#

im quite the novice to this, its the first time ive needed to do it

steep zealot
#

You can also add the meters from the interface, if you see fit, but that is in my opinion more error prone.

marble oasis
#

one other thing, my electic/gas meters are similar design, are they likely to be getting picked up as water meters by the addon?

steep zealot
#

The addon doesn't pick up 'meters'. It picks up telegrams which give you the information in the logs of the addon what brand of meter it is.

#

Then you specify the meter by giving the addon a template - the driver, to decode this telegram

marble oasis
#

thanks again for the help, I should be ok now I know how to edit the config files

@zinc terrace, I've narrowed it down to large MariaDB and large InfluxDB being a culprit. I've downsampled influx to half it's original size (it's at 5GB now -yes I know it's still massive) and I can at least transfer mariadb alone.

#

Now working on creating continuous queries for Influx to downsize it even further to about a 1-2gb

#

This should allow influxdb to backup correctly and I'll finally be able to transiton to a new VM

#

The old one is now such a joke - it crashes every few hours spiting out errors every hour about something different. It's like a 30 year old tractor held together with zipties and luck..

I am migrating from docker ha to haos and I'm moving mqtt from ext server to mosquitto broker add-on. Is there anything to moving the mqtt integration to the internal server?

#

What is the URL to the local mqtt server?

#

According to the mosquitto broker docs, the MQTT broker should appear as a discovered integration. But it don't. I guess its my existing external mqtt server config that blocks that discovery

#

The internal server will be the same ip address as your HA machine, just port 1883

Mosquitto Broker on HA OS question: by checking the logs of the Mosquitto Broker addons on HA OS (x86-64), I noticed that the docker supervisor (172.30.32.2) tries to connect each 2 minutes endlessly, flooding the logs.

2023-01-28 18:54:43: New connection from 172.30.32.2:55520 on port 1883.
2023-01-28 18:54:43: Client <unknown> closed its connection.
2023-01-28 18:56:43: New connection from 172.30.32.2:33074 on port 1883.
2023-01-28 18:56:43: Client <unknown> closed its connection.

Is that a normal behavior?

oblique leaf
#

I see some of that in my logs from 20+ minutes ago, but it's not a crazy amount. ~50 over the last 2 hours

spice moat
#

here it's at every 2min, so 30 per hour, 60 for 2 hours. Is it the same for you?

#

maybe it's a kind of healthy check, pretty weird behavior if you ask me

oblique leaf
#

It stopped about 20 minutes ago, but yeah it's mostly every 2 minutes

spice moat
#

same, my last is 21:26. It's the refresh that takes some time. the big question is why it does that

oblique leaf
#

oh, it's probably the watchdog

Even when I reverted to an earlier backup, the add ons arn't working. After googling, I thought maybe my firefox tracking protections might have been the culprit, but even after disabling them for home assistant didn't fix the problem.

my log from studio code server ends with:

[2023-01-29T21:11:47.813Z] info - Authentication is disabled
[2023-01-29T21:11:47.813Z] info - Not serving HTTPS

thanks for any help.

anyone ever had the issue of running addons (green status, logs show that they are running) but their icons stay gray like they are stopped

#

weird, their color just came back after like 20min of reboot

Has anyone else experienced this issue with MariaDB?
Full backup runs at 4:00 am and recorder does not resume when backup is finished? The Logbook will display new entries as they occur while it as active but it cannot retrieve any historical events since 4:00 am. I can see the DB being locked and released when backup starts/finishes but logbook/history are unable to retrieve events since it was locked. It's as if they are still being queued after the DB is unlocked...
Do I need to re & re MariaDB???

how can i set the mqtt addon to not need auth?

bitter skiff
#

Any reason why?

somber heart
#

i am migrating from docker to HAOS and i have a tonne of devices setup with the old one and i dont want to reconfigure them all (i have given the new VM the same IP as the old one)

bitter skiff
#

Was your old MQTT set up using allow_anonymous?

somber heart
#

yes but i cant figure out where to put that for the addon

bitter skiff
#

That says it's for ACLs, but that enables the /share/mosquitto dir as an include_dir where you can put additional configs

somber heart
#

thanks

#

is there anything i need to do to be able to ssh into the VM other than install the ssh addon and give it my public key?

bitter skiff
#

set the username

#

but that's about it

somber heart
#

where?

bitter skiff
#

you using official or community

somber heart
#

official

#

is the community one better?

bitter skiff
#

Yeah, it has more features but they both allow SSH

#

Community one lets you disable protection mode and issue docker commands if you need to

somber heart
#

ok ill try the community one

bitter skiff
#

ah looks like official maybe is just always root?

#

For the official, password also needs to be empty if you've got a key set Docs say that, but that's not true, it prefers a key it looks like

somber heart
#

ok neither want to let me connect, might be my ssh client, will try on my mac later

#

ok what sort of file do i need in /share/mosquitto for extra config stuff again?

bitter skiff
#

anythingyouwant.conf

#

and you can put additional Mosqutto directives in there

somber heart
#

so any idea why this didnt work

#

oh crap no attachments

#

give me a sec

bitter skiff
#

/root/share != /share

somber heart
#

ah, thanks

#

apparently it does

bitter skiff
#

ha, look at that they are linked

somber heart
bitter skiff
#

You added the customize section to the addon config and restarted?

#

anything in the log file?

somber heart
#

yes

#

and no

#

it says it is loading that file

#

Loading config file /share/mosquitto/mosquitto.conf

#

should i just go edit this file that it loads 3 messages later? Config loaded from /etc/mosquitto/mosquitto.conf

bitter skiff
#

That won't survive any restarts

#

The config file is templated

somber heart
#

and apparently dosnt exist

bitter skiff
#

It'll be in the MQTT container

somber heart
#

yep, just realised

bitter skiff
#

You may have to do something w/ an acl_file

#

I'm not terribly familiar with that though to give guidance on it

#

ok, im just gonna use the external mqtt server till i get this sorted

Hi all, whats the best way to externally connect to HA, Nextcloud and Jellyfin (all installed via HA addons)? I do not want to expose each port and already use DuckDNS and Nginx for HA

hushed steeple
# jade bay Hi all, whats the best way to externally connect to HA, Nextcloud and Jellyfin (...

Just in case you don't know, the best way, if you ask me, is to use the Nabu Casa subscription. https://www.nabucasa.com
Not opening a port was a requirement for me too, and considering that the subscription solved my problem quickly and allowed me to support HA, that was a win.
I'm curious to hear about DiY solutions. My guess would be a VM hosted on a cloud instance with a reverse proxy to your HA IP, and a set of rules to restrict access to the port on your IP from the cloud instance only.

no purchase necessary and nameserver change propagated in a few mins

#

if i have addons that are servers (eg node red) can i access them directly?

viscid orchid
#

If they say you can in their docs

#

Some offer the opportunity to specify a port, some only support ingress

brittle night
#

specifically nodered, yes just hit it at its ip:port

viscid orchid
#

If you gave it a port, the answer is 'yes'

somber heart
#

thanks

#

i prefer to have node red in a dedicated tab, otherwise i keep absentmindedly clicking on another HA tab and loosing changes

#

actualy, that was with an external server and a custom full screen dashboard loading the webpage, is that still an issue with the addon version?

oblique leaf
somber heart
#

ok ill stick to using them in their own tabs

#

how do you embed Grafana graphs in other dashboards with the addon version?

#

i was doing it by just using a url embed before but that had some issues with remote access, is there a more intergrated way with the addon?

oblique leaf
#

If you assign it a port, you can access it from anything

somber heart
#

ok so still using an iframe card to embed it into other dashboards?

oblique leaf
#

I have Grafana in anonymous auth mode and then I can access it on that port from any device in my house without needing to deal with HA auth

somber heart
#

what about external?

#

i have HA behind nginx but i couldent work out how to use HA auth for Grafana so i have to use the nginx auth and that dosnt work with the app

#

in a browser i just go to my main nginx page and login but in the app that dosnt work because the cookies dont transfer from the mobile browser to the app

oblique leaf
#

Using the separate port doesn't share auth, but if you go to Grafana from inside HA it uses Ingress to proxy the connection and handle authentication

#

Your Grafana URL would look something like https://homeassistant.mydomain.com/api/hassio_ingress/

somber heart
#

ok

#

could i proxy a normal url, say https://homeassistant.mydomain.com/nodered to the ingress url so that it uses HA auth for login?

oblique leaf
#

Is the goal to just have Node Red open in a separate tab?

somber heart
#

yes

#

while not on the home network

brittle night
#

it would make more sense to just proxy another subdomain for it..

somber heart
#

why?

#

i am only using subdomains for HA, everything else is /service

oblique leaf
somber heart
#

yep its the ingress link i need

oblique leaf
#

That URL won't prompt you for login though, it just gives a 401 error if you try to visit it unauthenticated

somber heart
#

so i can just use a url rewrite in nginx to change https://homeassistant.domain.com/nodered to https://homeassistant.domain.com/hassio/ingress/a0d7b954_nodered internaly

somber heart
#

i assume this will also work for grafana graphs if i use the ingress link to embed them?

oblique leaf
#

Yeah. The only quirk you can run into is if your HA session expires then you'll get a 401 on the Ingress link until you refresh the HA page and it renews the session. At least I think that's what was happening to me

somber heart
#

at the moment i get this https://imgur.com/a/VfiaFWl if i am not logged into Organizr (what nginx is using for its auth backend) and that means i cant use those graphs for people (like my dad) who have HA logins but dont use Organizr, it also dosnt work in the app

Same issue with duck dns..

#

Can’t access my HA now 😦

#

Must have it configured incorrectly as I can only access it via duckdns url on a good day even

#

And not local ip or homeassistant.local

#

Would be nice if Duckdns had a network status page at least 🤦🏻‍♂️

somber heart
#

ok just thought i would follow up on the discussion from earlier about proxying the ingress URLs to get a neater url for external access. it sort of works, it breaks down if you try and remove the /api/hassio_ingress from the domain because the cookie that stores the ingress auth is tied to that path. so while you can shrink https://homeassistant.domain.com/api/hassio_ingress/8FB_tIHi0ElfdrghyzbhwOh_KYejUO0uaWBXZby-JEi down to https://homeassistant.domain.com/api/hassio_ingress/nodered, you cant go all the way to https://homeassistant.domain.com/nodered which is what i was aiming for

normal elk
#

So what do we jump ship to from duckdns?

lament otter
normal elk
#

Seems duckdns is back online? @neat crypt and co

#

Yes it is, at least for me

sly kindle
#

@normal elk you connect locally using https://

#

You would see a warning in your browser which you then advance through

normal elk
#

Doesn’t work for me. Maybe my urls are setup incorrectly as both are duckdns for local and remote urls

#

Anywyas seems duckdns is down again at least for me

normal elk
sly kindle
#

You still have a local IP address and port

#

The URL settings do not override this

normal elk
#

never worked for me unfortunately. really don't know why

Hey all I've spent days now and cannot seem to find a way to enable websocket support using the NGINX add-on. Have a Shelly HT Plus and the device connects to HA, but with no entities. Tried with wss and ws, with IP, and hostname. The only thing that seems to connect is ws with hostname. ( NGINX is being used for SSL and that works fine. Based on all my reading web socket support needs to be added to nginx. I can't seem to figure out how to do that using the add-on version though. I think perhaps a custom file of some sort... #add-ons-archived

Shelly device does also show connection from HA when adding. mg_rpc.c:314 Shelly.GetStatus via WS_in 10.X.X.X:48848

# glacial needle any solution to it?

They try to conserve IPv4 adresses by bunching you in with other customers to one ip adress and doing some routing on their end before traffic arrives to you. That unfortunatly makes things like fowarding ports and accepting outside connections near impossible, that is for IPv4. You can however use IPv6 as those arent as limited and are used to tunnel the IPv4 to you. You should already have a static IPv6 address or even a whole adressspace assigned to you if you are dualstack/dualstack-lite customer. Therefore you can use IPv6 to connect from the outside (that is if your outside connection is IPv6 capable).

radiant notch
elder geode
# radiant notch Assuming their isp supports IPv6. A lot still don't

Well its pretty likely they support IPv6 if they are using CGNAT. Because routing the traffic from the CGNAT to the consumer is done using IPv6 in almost all cases as its already implemented commercially available and doesnt require them to adapt a new protocol and works on the existing infrastructure of the ISP/Whole Internet

radiant notch
#

In the similar way of how mobile phones work given they use CGNAT and IPv6

Hey everyone! 🙂
I am running the MariaDB addon as the DB for my recorder. Is there a way to migrate the DB from that addon to a new instance?

viscid orchid
#

it should be part of a full backup

patent copper
#

Sorry, my bad. To clarify, I want to run a MariaDB instance outside the HA ecosystem, so not an addon.

#

I see that there is a mysqldump tool that seems to fit the bill, but I guess I have no console access to the addon?

viscid orchid
#

if you can't use that from within one of the ssh addons, it looks like you can specify a port in the MariaDB addon for external access from somewhere where you can

patent copper
#

That seems to work...

patent copper
#

Hmmm... It seems I have to stop the DB before exporting it using mysqldump. I get an error warning about corrupt DB when importing it again...

#

Is there a way for me to stop the DB application inside the container?

viscid orchid
#

stop the addon

#

well, then you can't get to it 🙂

patent copper
#

Exactly! 😉

viscid orchid
#

if you stop HA, it should be in a quiescent state, right?

#

it's the HA database, after all

#

I don't know what it means to "stop" the database

patent copper
#

Yeah, maybe... I suppose on a VM you could do systemctl stop mysql or something, but as the addons doesn't expose a console...

#

But, I can try with HA stopped.

#

That is a good idea.

viscid orchid
#

yes, just do that. anything else is probably fraught with peril

patent copper
#

I feel like I am dangerously close already!

viscid orchid
#

the point is that you care about the data, right?

patent copper
#

Precisely!

viscid orchid
#

it's easy for me because I don't care about the data and am fine with blowing away the database if necessary

#

I have been like that, but I finally have managed to gather a complete set of energy usage statistics for the entire year of 2022. I'd like to keep that streak going... 🙂

Anyone have updated the MariaDB Addon before when Home Assistant is using it?

brave basin
#

I just did it an hour ago

#

Had to to install 2023.2

brave basin
#

why?

patent copper
#

@viscid orchid Just to let you know that using mysqldump works perfectly! But it seems stopping HA before doing the dump is essential.

#

Also, restoring the backup file is straight forward even without access to the DB application or console of the container.

#

Only requirement is that the DB is accessible over your network...

brave basin
#

Ok so it seems VSCode works fine when I'm using it locally, but when I'm remote (through Cloudflare) it doesn't work. Where do I start looking for the reason for this?

patent copper
#

It is not possible to configure recorder to use sockets to connect to a DB running as an addon, is that correct?

meager anchor
#

It seems to fix itself tho

#

So what happened is I press upgrade it just keep updating for over an hour

#

So I end up restarting HA

#

And it's Recorder seems to failed after restart (Probably due to unable to connect to database?)

#

But it seems fine now after another restart tho

Hi everyone, apologies if I post this in the wrong section. I am struggeling with Zigbee2MQTT in combination with the Sonof Dongle 3 Plus V2. I was able to setup everything and also was able to join devices and even create automation. For some reason after a random amount of time. Sometimes days sometimes minutes devices seem to leave the network and do not come back. I have to join them again and after sometime they leave as well. What I recognize is that at the same time when I click on Zigbee2MQTT to check on the devives I am getting an error 502 Bad Gateway. I hope you someone can point me in the right direction

Note: Due to limitations, you will need to set this option to root in order to be able to enable the SFTP capabilities.

Raspberry Pi Remote GPIO
The rpi_gpio integration is the base for all related GPIO platforms in Home Assistant. For the platform configurations, please check their corresponding sections.

The remote Raspberry Pi and the control computer where Home Assistant is running must be prepared to run remote_rpi_gpio, see details here.

Note that for virtual environments you may need to set an environment variable when starting the environment to set the pin factory, example:

Environment = GPIOZERO_PIN_FACTORY=pigpio PIGPIO_ADDR=YOUR_RPi_IP_ADDRESS

2023-02-04 07:40:38: Client rtl_433-a90dffff already connected, closing old connection.
I have tried rebooting pi, stopping and restarting mosquitto broker, stopping and restarting HA, both HA and VM it's running on, changing pi IP, and restoring to yesterday's backup. Can someone direct me to some expertise? Thanks for your help!

hey,

had aguard running for weeks in rasp3b+ and worked fine. Since last week i cant bring it back up.

Hi all, how would I go about deleting a /var/lib/influxdb/data/_internal inside the influxdb addon container?

#

The addon is currently failing to boot, so I cannot just backup the database and restore it in to a newly installed influx add-on unfortunately so this is my best bet.

#

If not I have to go back 4 days of data, which is why I am still trying not to do that.

#

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

steep zealot
#

Conversely, is there any way to prevent the influxdb container from stopping on its own in case of the a failure to lunch?

#

I could then bash into it and remove the folder or better yet backup the specific DB.

@quaint copper a VM is good. I used to have a Tuya convert SD card I would swap out to flash devices, then swap back to my HA SD card back in the day

Hello. Tried to update mqtt today and apparently 1024-bit keys aren't secure enough anymore (openssl security_level=2) and the daemon won't start. ESP8266 barely work with 1024, so longer is not an option, and the worst legacy nodes I have are pinned to this cert as well, so I need to find each of them and move them to port 1883 instead..

Is there a way to set the security_level of the mqtt addon down so I can stand up my current 1024-bit key while I find and fix all the nodes that will not cope with things changing?

Hi, I'd love to get some help setting up automated backups to dropbox. I've been following this explanation https://maartendamen.com/how-do-i-back-up-home-assistant/ but when I press start, the service flashes on and directly back off again. I've tried to set up the automation anyway, and it runs but no files end up in dropbox. Any input?

Just moved my installation from a Windows server running HAOS in VirtualBox VM to a Truenas Scale running VM HAOS. Imported backup, everything seems to work perfect except zigbee2mqtt that shows me a 502: Bad Gateway when trying to access web UI. Any ideas ? (I run zigbee2mqtt as an addon)
The only thing in the log I can find is and that doesn't really tell me a lot 🙂

Hello knowledgeable people 🙂

I have a question about DHCP on HA.

Can it provide DHCP services for several different subnets over different LAN interfaces?

I am aware HA is not a DHCP server, I was thinking more about the DHCP addon, or the DHCP module in the AdGuard addon.

I know this is a very niche use-case..

I need some help, i'm the creator of the DSMR Reader addon: https://github.com/sanderdw/hassio-addons/tree/master/dsmr_reader. Suddenly i can't create new versions as Supervisor complaining about the image missing:
"
Failed to install add-on
Can't install sanderdw/ha-dsmr-reader-aarch64:1.9.5: 404 Client Error for http+docker://localhost/v1.41/images/sanderdw/ha-dsmr-reader-aarch64:1.9.5/json: Not Found ("no such image: sanderdw/ha-dsmr-reader-aarch64:1.9.5: No such image: sanderdw/ha-dsmr-reader-aarch64:1.9.5")
"

But images are created correctly and uploaded to Docker hub just fine: https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/sanderdw/ha-dsmr-reader-aarch64/general

Anybody an idea? Strange this is it worked for a long time, also the current version in master is still working.

languid roost
#

or pulling. not sure of the lingo

sullen night
#

What do you mean by that? What ive tried to debug is creating a branch of master and only change the version number. But even then then it fails to pull.

bitter skiff
#

You sure you've got enough free disk space on wherever you're pulling?

#

You could try docker pull sanderdw/ha-dsmr-reader-aarch64:1.9.5 to see if that gives you a better error

languid roost
sullen night
#

tried on 3 different HA instances but i will check the manuall pull indeed

#

"no matching manifest for linux/arm64/v8" in the manifest list entries"

bitter skiff
#

Weird, no issue for me on that image, works fine

languid roost
#

is the manifest complete?

#

might be worth pulling that again too

sullen night
#

Not sure if a amd64 system works

bitter skiff
#

Does docker pull sanderdw/ha-dsmr-reader-amd64:1.9.5 result in the same issue?

sullen night
#

EDIT: Don't know as that's the amd64 variant, it pulls fine on a generic docker machine though (WSL)

bitter skiff
#

Does the aarch64 pull fine on that machine?

sullen night
#

Yes

bitter skiff
#

You try restarting the host (or at least the supervisor)? Seems odd.... wonder if there's any level of caching of the responses that come back from hub

sullen night
#

will do

#

Same error, but even then it should work on at least one machine 😦

#

But to be sure, can anybody pull the 1.9.5 tag directly on a aarch64 machine?

I'm running Z2M 1.30.0-1 . I just tried restarting from a totally fresh HA with no backup installed. Same issue.

According to documentation for zigbee2mqtt as add-on it states that if I am using MQTT broker add-on I should not fill out anything in the mqtt field

I just tried to log in to Ngnix Proxy Manager for the first time in a while and I must have changed my password and not saved it in my password manager at some point. Is it possible to reset the password or do I need to reset the database?

#

I'll look into this now, thanks

proud cipher

what would cause me to not be able to start my addons? i installed file editor i hit start it doesnt start. i did a restart and same thinbg

bitter skiff

If you go to log... anything interesting?

proud cipher
#

nmothing red all white

#

but nothing i see that stands out

bitter skiff
#

Otherwise, did you happen to do a restore? Have you tried rebooting the entire host (not just a dev tools restart)?

proud cipher
#

i did have to do a restore

bitter skiff
#

Yeah, something is up w/ add-ons after restoring, you've got to restart the whole host (either the RPi or the VM, etc)

proud cipher
#

ok can i do that from the browser or no?

bitter skiff
#

Settings->System->Hardware-> dotsvertical ->Reboot System

proud cipher
#

thanks ya i was restarting just the dev tools i guess

bitter skiff

Yeah, that only restarts the Core of HA

so i'm reading over some of the posts on that thread about resetting the password for NPM, but since I'm still new to MariaDB, I'm not even sure how to connect to it first

bitter skiff

The easiest if you're not familiar w/ other clients is probably to use the phpMyAdmin addon to connect to the actual DB

naive grove
#

I'll start there then. Installing that addon now.

#

That addon just made my life a whole lot easier, thanks!

#

I was dreading having to reset NPM, but that just took all of 5 minutes to figure out after installing phpMyAdmin

bitter skiff
#

Nice, glad that worked

naive grove
#

I'd definitely like to start digging into MariaDB a bit now though

proud cipher
#

if i used nginx and duckdns and can access HA remotely now should that work for the app on my iphoine or browser only?

sand hinge
proud cipher
#

odd my app cant find the server

#

at least when im on lte, wifi no problem

sand hinge
#

Are you using the external ip?

proud cipher
#

i was using my duckdns.org domain with the port at the end for the browser and my app is just blank black screen with a settings button

#

got it

#

i didnt realize i had to enter the url in the app as well for external

sand hinge
#

Welp there ya got

proud cipher
#

if i change the port from 8123 to 443 and then use canyouseeme.com and it cant that must mean my isp blocks it ya?

You can't just use ssl like that, try using port 80 instead and try going to it

# sand hinge If advise you setup nginz proxy manager

i had that installed and there was no difference. i used my 30 days of nabu and am hoping freenom will come back by then so i can use cloudflare method or im going to try and find a semi decent priced router on marketplace

sand hinge
#

get a cheap domain name

proud cipher
#

i was just trying to avoid the .99 for year 1 and then 20-30 after unless im looking at the wrong sites

lament otter
#

It'll show you the prices for every year. Don't buy cheap, buy smart. Spend a little more this year and the same every year

bitter skiff
#

@proud cipher FYI, Freenom won't work w/ Cloudflare

#

There's plenty of domains < $10/yr

proud cipher
#

so new router needs to happen first and foremost

bitter skiff
proud cipher
#

maybe cuz the site is down right now? i dunno i was literally told on a facebook group by multiple people to use that as they currently have it working

bitter skiff
#

Maybe so... seems not worth a headache to save $10/yr though if that's true?

proud cipher
#

well when your scraping by 10 a year right now is alot unfortunately hence why im not in a rush to get the router or pay for a domain

bitter skiff
#

What's wrong w/ your current router if you want to go the port forward route

proud cipher
#

the port forwarding is done through an app they literally ask me the device (i pick ha) then the port (i put 8123) but then i cant set it up to use port 443 to 8123 as well to incorporate google/alexa device. the interface is terrible i can pm you a picture if you want to se it since i cant upload a pic

bitter skiff
#

You can upload to imgur or another sharing site and paste the link

#

You're saying they only let you forward the port number you specify to the same port on the internal device?

#

What router is it

proud cipher
#

as far as i can tell

#

It’s a Shaw blue curve gateway

bitter skiff
#

what's the next step in that sequence

proud cipher
#

You hit next and then that’s it your port is set up

#

So I had set it to 8123 and I could remote access, then I tried adding google but it didn’t work cuz the 443 couldn’t be set up

bitter skiff
#

You said you had Nginx Proxy Manager installed?

sly kindle
#

forget waiting for freenom, do a little searching, and find a cheap one

bitter skiff
#

The retail is concerning though... need to watch out for "Hey, 90% off", then it's $30/yr after that

sly kindle
#

.98 to 2.88 or 1.78...

bitter skiff
sly kindle
#

yeah, i don't know if it's an agreement for more than a year

proud cipher
bitter skiff
#

With NGinx presenting an SSL cert? or no

proud cipher
#

Would that be using https as address? Sorry I’m very new to all of this as well

bitter skiff
#

Yeah

proud cipher
#

Ya that worked and I was able to go to a browser use https:// .duckdns.org:8123 and that worked and if I went to canyouseeme .com it saw it

bitter skiff
#

Did you try that w/ Alexa/Google? They may not love the port at the end, not sure

#

You can configure the port Nginx listens on though

proud cipher
#

I did with google and it didn’t like it, didn’t try Alexa cuz apparently that one is even more challenging then google lol

bitter skiff
#

Was there an error associated with it?

proud cipher
#

It was like when you see the page a connection can’t be established

bitter skiff
#

Hmm, if you can get the details, that'd help

#

So your prior set up may work

proud cipher
# bitter skiff Hmm, if you can get the details, that'd help

i can try again tonight and see, ill just disable the nabu casa access i have would be nice to figure it out before its up lol. ill @ you the error i get and see what you think. I followed everything smart homes video which looks just like the steps in this document but i wonder if maybe he changed 1 or 2 things for his setup? ill give it a go and post back later thanks

bitter skiff
#

Could be... the Google Assistant set up is a bit tedious too

#

But make sure you get SSL external access working before you screw around w/ that

proud cipher
#

oh is that seperate from this doc?

bitter skiff
proud cipher
#

and ya if ssl is just having an address of https then i forsure had that working

#

i appreciate all your info/advice/suggestions and help lol ill give it a go again tonight if i can stay awake after work lol. was up until 4am the last 2 nights trying to get it working lol

When using cloudflare addon for tunnels what security measures should I take, apart from 2fa, strong password and this generic things

bitter skiff

I'd suggest blocking countries you don't expect traffic from

I already made that, I made a waf rule to block everyone country except mine

also made https only access

and strict encryption option from cloudflare

not sure if that would be enough

Hi, I have a issue with configuring my Let's encrypt addon. I try to fill the Domains field but then when I click to the other field to fill (e-mail), my input disappear. It actually look like drop down, but it's empty. How do I fill it?

#

Also tried the edit in yaml option but when saving, it fails

#

And same issue is with duckdns addon

bitter skiff
#

I think that's one where you need to do it in YAML

#

what's it fail w/ when you do it that way

near falcon
#

It says something like "Saving addon configuration failed, invalid list for option 'domains' in Let's Encrypt (core_letsencrypt). Got {'domains': 'xxx.duckdns.org', ..."

Ok I found it, it works if you input the domain in brackets in yaml [xxx.duckdns.org]

I recently installed Loki and Promtail to help manage my logs. I can query the logs in Grafana, this is an excellent solution. My objective is to receive a notification if I get an error in my Node Red logs. I’m going through Loki rules, just curious if anyone has been able to get this to work yet? I suspect the rule will have to call a web hook. I’m running HAOS so my options to access the Docker logs are limited but I feel like I am heading in the right direction.

I have installed home assistant on ubuntu through docker, but I can not install any add-on as the tab dedicated to them is missing. How do I fix it?

I'm using Visual Studio Code Server add-on to edit my yaml files. I just start experimenting with !includes to clean up my main configuration files. Here is a snippet from configuration.yaml

#########################################
# Crestron Integration
#########################################
crestron:
  port: 16384

light: !include crestron-lights.yaml
climate: !include crestron-climate.yaml

What I have found is that when I Save one of the include files, crestron-lights.yaml for example, VS Code removes the leading spaces on each line. I thought that would break the yaml but it does not. Just an FYI. No question here.

bitter skiff
signal fulcrum
# cyan lotus I have installed home assistant on ubuntu through docker, but I can not install ...

Not possible. Addons are docker container loaded by the home assistant OS. Since you run already on Docker you can't run a container in a container. See https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/:

  • Home Assistant Operating System: Minimal Operating System optimized to power Home Assistant. It comes with Supervisor to manage Home Assistant Core and Add-ons. Recommended installation method.
  • Home Assistant Container: Standalone container-based installation of Home Assistant Core (e.g. Docker).
    You are on the second option without addons.

I'm editing my yaml file for the first time ever using the studio code server. I'm watching a youtube video and he has spaces after the ":". When I do that, I get an error. Should there be a space after or not? Elsewhere in the default file it seems like there is a space.

bitter skiff
#

Yeah, like between keys and values? service: lock.lock not service:lock.lock

gritty urchin
#

I'm sure it is way too advanced and I'm just using it wrong

bitter skiff
#

Hmmm, it really isn't all too advanced for YAML. It's got schema validation, which is nice to see when you screw things up

#

It shouldn't be doing much else to mess things up

#

If your indentation was messed up, or you were missing spaces, it could collapse those lines

#

whitespace is significant in YAML

gritty urchin
bitter skiff
#

File editor might not automatically merge lines.... but if Code was doing it, it's basically the same way it'd be interpreted one way or the other

gritty urchin
#

It was taking these two lines:

#

influxdb:
host: 192.168.50.5

#

and merging them into one.

#

Then when I went to check on the "check configuration", it would error.

bitter skiff
#

If that's how you had it, w/ host indented by 2 spaces.... that seems fine, shouldn't have reformatted it

gritty urchin
bitter skiff
#

error w/ what

gritty urchin
#

Hmm, I can try again in a min. I'm trying the influxdb/grafana install and unlike the youtubers, I need to reboot my system every time to get the services to start. not sure why

bitter skiff
#

When you change the configuration.yaml, you'll have to restart

gritty urchin
bitter skiff
#

click Log

#

see what the log says

gritty urchin
# bitter skiff see what the log says

I did that the first time I had a problem with influxdb...I didn't see anything stand out. It just refused to start. But when I rebooted, it was fine. Same thing just happened again with grafana.

bitter skiff
#

A reboot shouldn't be required to install an addon

gritty urchin
#

I don't know. But I am positive it wouldn't start otherwise.

#

Just tested it on a random Add-on:Chrony

#

Clicked install. Waited for it to install. Clicked start and nothing

bitter skiff
#

log file?

gritty urchin
#

Hold on, I'll do it again

gritty urchin
bitter skiff
#

looks started to me

gritty urchin
#

it isn't

bitter skiff
#

You said you've rebooted your hardware multiple times at this point? Not just HA Core?

gritty urchin
bitter skiff
#

Odd, I know people have had issues where they'd restore from a backup and it'd appear that addons weren't started, but a full reboot would solve that problem then going forward

gritty urchin
#

I have an odd ball situation right now where I got distracted and lost where I was in the install process. I see Graphana in the side bar but when I go to the addon page, it isn't listed.

bitter skiff
#

When you click it in the side bar... does it load

gritty urchin
#

It seems to (I don't know what it is supposed to look like). But when I hunt down the add on in the store, it doesn't have the bar above it indicated it is installed and when I click on it, it says it is turned off.

bitter skiff
#

Hmm, really seems like the supervisor is confused some how.... just for fun, have you tried fully powering off the hardware and then turning it back on. I don't really expect a different result, but that's an odd mismatch

gritty urchin
#

I can try that. It is under Proxmox.

bitter skiff
#

Gotcha, yeah just try shutting down the VM and bring it back up

gritty urchin
#

One thing I like about hyperv is that it has a power off command. An actual pull the plug and not wait for the guest.

bitter skiff
#

Stop will do that

#

Not recommended

gritty urchin
#

No, I've already run into that yesterday where stop didn't work

#

It hung when I was playing around with a different install.

#

Uh oh, I'm in safe mode....this is a new one

bitter skiff
#

Did you mess up your configuration.yaml? 🙃

gritty urchin
#

No idea. Time to nuke and restore from the backup.

bitter skiff
#

After the restore completes, give it the old power down and boot up again 🙂

gritty urchin
#

Will do

#

Hmmm....I don't like this restore...it shows the addons I installed since I did that backup

#

I thought it would take me back completely

bitter skiff
#

same backup file?

gritty urchin
#

yep

#

Luckily I had 2 brain cells floating around and did a snapshot right after the first restore

bitter skiff
#

No

#

don't do that

Dear InfluxDB user, did you make any adjustment in the precision parameter for your DB? It's indicated as a good step to make the database a bit more managable.

#

Are you running the default nanosecond timestamps or have you made any changes?

#

As per documentation

precision string (optional, default: ns) Set this to specify the time precision sent to influxdb. Setting a coarser precision allows InfluxDb to compress your data better. If not set, defaults to ns.

#

Please ping when responding - thank you!!

paste to somewhere like pastebin so you can just paste the whole thing and link it

mortal panther
#

ok

#

This is on a clean install of the addon (i.e no configuration changes)

bitter skiff
#

Yeah, log seems fine

#

You're just seeing the Start button still on the Info tab?

mortal panther
#

The addon does not read as started

#

Yeah that's correct

bitter skiff
#

Have you done a restore recently

mortal panther
#

Not recently

#

Maybe a week or two

bitter skiff
#

I've heard of a couple other people saying their systems won't show add-ons as running until they do a full reboot (Restarting the entire Pi not just HA).

#

I'm not sure why... I don't see that behavior (I don't have a Pi though, either)

#

May try giving the Pi itself a reboot and see if you see it indicate as started then

mortal panther
#

I've rebooted several times, I don't think I've restarted the entire PI

#

Ok, I'll do that now. Is the suggested way just cutting power to the PI and plugging it back in? Or is there a better way

bitter skiff
#

Settings->System->Hardware-> dotsvertical -> Reboot System

#

Not advisable to pull power, as that can cause data corruption

mortal panther
#

Thanks!

#

OMG that worked!! Thank you so much!!

🥳 Glad to hear

After upgrading to the latest version of HA + MariaDB, all my data is gone + it's stuck in this mode. Any suggestions on how to get it to work again?

Has anyone figured out a way for us to update our local Tailscale Add-on to a version without CVE's yet?
https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-tailscale/pull/133 appears very quiet. The add-on seems stuck on a 9 month old version, which doesn't feel very safe for security focussed software like Tailscale.

How can I restart an addon from the cli?

Hi Guy's, i have MariaDB running on my Synology nas. Is there a way to migrate back to the Maria DB addon in Home Assistant. i just want to keep my energy data. I have already MariaDB running for Nginx Proxy addon.

supple grove
#

Just export your db from your nas to a file and import it again into your new db

jovial wagon
#

Export file is 1.2 Gig

supple grove
#

Not sure what you use to export/import. You can also use a MySQL client like HeidiSQL

jovial wagon
#

I used phpmyadmin for the export

supple grove
#

It's probably a web server limit you're hitting while uploading

jovial wagon
#

Is that a limit from phpmyadmin?

supple grove
#

No. It's how the web server serving it is configured. I'd import via a client, otherwise you probably have to mess with its configs

jovial wagon
#

Oke thanx, I'll try that.

I agree that that code you had doesn't appear to have ever matched even an old version of what AppDaemon would expect

It looks like maybe you did something to the line after if new == 'on': ?

That line should read what I pasted

(I don't know of a better app, but that's because I've not used AppDaemon before 🙂 )

#

Alerts can be done more easily through standard HA automations

Whatever that code did it partially fixed my problem. I am now getting notificiations!! However, I'm getting notifications for EVERY entity that is open for longer than 10 seconds. lol!!

bitter skiff
#

as in not just the front door and garage entry, but others?

void prawn
#

Nope. . . I'm getting it for the roku remote, the t9 motion sensor, the browser dark mode, etc.

#

I just restarted AppDaemon and will see if that fixes it. If not, I will do an entire system reboot

Question. Using Code Server. Is this something in the Docker Container It's asking me to fix or in HA? Unable to watch for file changes in this large workspace folder. Please follow the instructions link to resolve this issue.

I'd flip self.listen_state(self.tracker, entity=door) to self.listen_state(self.tracker, door), see if that fixes it

Is there any way to install minecraft server on a HA installation? I run HA on a way to big machine, so plenty of resources for wife and kids server. Or, an add-on for OpenJDK or Java?

Well, there's only one log statement in the app, and that's about trying to cancel a non-existent timer

If everything is working as expected, there are no log statements

I don't need a ton of logs to know when something worked so I will leave it as-is! Thank you so much for your assistance on this one!! You are a life saver!! Now I can add more entities as I add door sensors and be all set. . . though, I do have one last quick, easy question on that. How do I add the additional entities to my yaml?? I know and see where to assign them correctly in the .py file so I am good there. It is in the apps.yaml that I am a bit fuzzy on.

Hi! I have a third-party add-on that crashes at boot, and crashes so bad that I can't even access the supervisor panel to fix it. The observer says:

Supervisor: Connected
Supported: Unsupported
Healthy: Unhealthy

#

Is there a way to fix this through ssh on the command line?

bitter skiff
void prawn
#

I want to add entities to monitor for my door notifications app; as in another door. I have one already listed in the door_notifications.py code. . . .but how do I reference it in the apps.yaml file?

the apps.yaml is listed at this link at the top: https://pastebin.com/9stdygzj

void prawn
bitter skiff
#

Nah, I don't, all good.

You could change that entity_id to something like

entity_ids:
  - binary_sensor.garage_entry_door
  - binary_sensor.other_door

and update line 8 to fetch from the config https://pastebin.com/XBJpHS7z

#

Then, you'll have to list everything you want to listen to in the YAML

#

Oops that still has the error in line 12

#

have to nuke the entity=

void prawn
#

I just copied line 8 to a notepad++ file and then duplicated the other code and pasted the new line 8 over the top. Now I have both versions saved and can potentially rename one and use both side-by-side to control a certain number of entities with one set time under 'ttl' and another entity or entities under a different set time under 'ttl'.

bitter skiff
#

Sure... you could also add a default TTL and make it different based on each entity.... obviously more config and code updates needed to do that

void prawn
#

As you can tell I know enough coding to get me in trouble!! I can't thank you enough for the help!!!

bitter skiff

You bet, glad it's working!

hello, im new here and new to using Home assistant. i ran into a new problem today where File editor will not start. It was working fine until i tried to install Studio Code Server and it would not start. I have uninstalled both add-ons and reinstalled File Editor as well as reloading a backup from earlier today and it still will not start. Can anyone please help?

bitter skiff
#

Does it error? Could you share the log file

lethal harbor
#

I do not see any errors

bitter skiff
#

If you click Log at the top, could you share that

#

How are you running HA? VM? Desktop/Laptop? Pi?

lethal harbor
#

Im using OS on x86

#

I sent you 2 files in DM

bitter skiff
#

Could you paste them in somewhere like pastebin.com and share the link, I'd rather not download files 🙂

lethal harbor
#

sure

bitter skiff
#

Hmm seems fine... and so when you click start.... does it spin and just go back to saying start on the addon page?

lethal harbor
#

it just does nothing

#

no spinning or anything, almost like i didnt even click it

#

but get this when i try to open it

#

File editor
Add-on is not running. Please start it first

bitter skiff
#

Could you try rebooting the entire device. The PC itself, not just Dev Tools-> Restart. You can do that by going to Settings->System->Hardware-> dotsvertical ->Reboot System

void prawn
lethal harbor
#

yes trying now

bitter skiff
void prawn
# lethal harbor yes trying now

I had issues with both file editor and sudio code server when I switched from a raspberry pi to the Odroid N2+. I had to reinstall EVERY back up in order to get them to work. . . but that fixed it for me.

lethal harbor
#

i hope i dont have to go back further than today and especially yesterday, Might as well just start a fresh install

sly kindle
#

thing is, neither of those really need backups. File editor? What's there to save

#

Install as new and have the same thing

bitter skiff
#

Hoping the restart does it for you.... I'm not sure what's up, but there's been quite a few people lately that install an add-on and then supervisor seems to go haywire thinking nothing is started, even though things are starting fine.

lethal harbor
#

looks like the reboot gor it back up and running for now. Thank you @bitter skiff

sly kindle
#

Rebooting gets everything starting as it should

lethal harbor
#

of course it was that simple! lol

sly kindle
#

Restarting HA only restarts ha

bitter skiff
#

But you shouldn't need a restart to get an addon started, but that always seems to be the fix here

sly kindle
#

So the supervisor and add-ons have the same miscommunication going on

Make the whitespace match in the new function, Python (like YAML) is very particular about whitespace

#

Type (tab/space) and amount

lethal harbor
#

ok next question, is there a better editor than file editor, Im having issues with indenting on everthing hanging when i copy and paste code

#

also it would be nice if the file tree stayed up on the left

void prawn
bitter skiff
#

Otherwise, you can install Samba and edit it remotely, too

lethal harbor
#

i have samba, but how to i access it from windows? i only saw a tutorial for mac

bitter skiff
#

Just like any file share \\homeassistant.local , or use it's IP

void prawn
# bitter skiff Type (tab/space) and amount

I saw where it said that and the code even showed the arrows for tab usage. I just pasted your code into the notepad++ before copying the entire thing over to make sure I had spacing correct. . . .now I know what to keep an eye out for 🙂

lethal harbor
#

ok ill play around some more with it

#

thanks yall

void prawn
lethal harbor
#

as in do I connect on RDP, set it up as a network drive? i havent been able to get either to work

bitter skiff
#

It'd be a network location, not RDP. If you want to map a drive, you'll need to specify a specific share, most likely \\<yourHAip>\config

#

and then the credentials you configured

#

Also make sure the client you're using to access HA is within the allowed hosts networks

lethal harbor
#

That is what i needed... thanks again

HELP! Restore from backup caused both Studio Code Server and File Editor to fail!

To undo a failure with a Home Assistant core upgrade (reported in a separate post) I reverted to a full backup I had made a month earlier. That fixed the problem but now neither Studio Code Server nor File Editor work.They both say that the add-on is not running and needs to start. I press the start button but nothing happens.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. That did not help and in the File Editor case removed it from the sidebar as well.

I tried different backups (in which I know at least Studio Code Server was working) but that did not help.

So, I have no way of editing files in a week when I was planning to do a lot :frowning_face: I need to fix this urgently!

Any ideas?

It is a HASSIO installation.

Reboot the entire host, not just HA

@bitter skiff I now have 3 different python programs to notify my of certain doors being open after a set amount of time and they send me a different message based on my set time. . . thank you so much for the help!!!!

bitter skiff
#

🎉 Awesome, glad to hear it, you're welcome

void prawn
# bitter skiff 🎉 Awesome, glad to hear it, you're welcome

One last question. If I want to change seconds to minutes do I simply change the one place seconds shows in the python code to minutes and then change my number in 'ttl' accordingly? I obviously have to change the wording in the message that gets sent out as well.

bitter skiff
#

This line would need to be self.door_timer_library[entity] = self.run_in(self.notifier, int(self.args['ttl'])*60, entity_name=entity)

#

That second argument is in seconds, so if your input is minutes, you'll need to convert it

Hi all. I have Mosquitto broker running and Frigate installed. When I start Frigate, I get a bunch of errors that say, "ERROR : Unable to connect to MQTT server: MQTT Not authorized". However, I can still see the stream in the Frigate web UI. Does this make sense?

Will this be a persistent notification? What I mean is as long as something is open longer than 2 minutes will it continue to notify me or will it only fire once?

Looks like once

Good! That's what I want. I don't need to be reminded repeatedly. I can set that up via another .yaml configuration

I have the Tailscale add-on running on my HA Blue and can access HA via my android phone Tailscale and HA apps. I would also like to access HA via my Windows10 laptop while traveling. I installed and can access Tailscale on the laptop but all I have found so far is how to install HA on Windows10 instead of just the HA app so I can use it with Tailscale as I do on my android phone.
Does anyone have information or a link that tells me how to remotely access my home HA instance via Tailscale on my Windows10 laptop?

bitter skiff
#

There's not an actual app for your desktop, you'd just access it through the Web UI as you'd normally

mortal blaze
#

Does that work outside the range of my wifi like when traveling? (I have no clue)

#

I'd prefer to not open any ports to my network.

#

That is why I use Tailscale.

bitter skiff
#

That's what Tailscale does... it's effectively a VPN, makes it like you're on your local network
