#

anyone have a good list of adguard filters that they use? Just set it up for the bare minimum. Thought I'd ask here before finding lists myself

sly kindle
#

Not all of those are enabled by default, so you could add those

atomic drift
#

Any idea why the "hassio_google_drive_backup" is NOT saving configuration.yaml when selected "HA config folder" ???

#

customize.yaml google_calendars.yaml groups.yaml home-assistant.log.fault home-assistant_v2.db input_boolean report.py
scripts.yaml secrets.yaml

#

those are the only files in the tar

#

despite the add-ons specifically saying it will backup the configuration.yaml
"Home Assistant Configuration"
"Backup the files and folders from your Home Assistant config directory, eg configuration.yaml"
😦

#

only the latest backup lacks the config yaml tho

#

at least i could restore the version from the 11/10 .. missing a few sensors but better than nothing

hi, i'm wondering if anyone gets samba 9.5.1 to work. i cannot edit password or username, changes are not taken into account

viscid orchid
#

yes, it works fine

#

review the addon logs and make sure that your password isn't being rejected as insecure

weary stratus
#

still getting the same failiure as described

viscid orchid
#

what is failing?

#

can't edit and "changes aren't taking into account" can be two different things

weary stratus
# viscid orchid what is failing?

Fehler beim Speichern der Add-on-Konfiguration, Missing required option 'password' in Samba share (core_samba). Got {'workgroup': 'WORKGROUP', 'username': 'homeassistant', 'password': None, 'allow_hosts': ['10.0.0.0/8', '172.16.0.0/12', '192.168.0.0/16', 'fe80::/10'], 'veto_files': ['._*', '.DS_Store', 'Thumbs.db', 'icon?', '.Trashes'], 'compatibility_mode': False}

#

means: failiure while saving the add-on-configuration

viscid orchid
#

enclose the password in quotes, and maybe get rid of the "!"

weary stratus
#

seems like all changes are ignored to the config

viscid orchid
#

I would copy the config out, remove and reinstall the addon, and then paste it back

#

i had to update core and ha firmware..

I maintain a modbustcp to MQTT bridge called "modbus4mqtt", and I had someone ask whether I could make it compatible with HACS. I run an older, self-hosted version of HASS so I'm not able to locally test it. I've set up the github actions to validate the repo, but I'm getting a check failure from the action/pipeline and I'm not sure what's wrong. I'm a bit fuzzy on the distinction between addons/integrations/plugins, too. This is the error I'm getting when running the HACS validator action: https://github.com/tjhowse/modbus4mqtt/runs/3916492541?check_suite_focus=true

viscid orchid
#

HACS doesn’t host addons

dense spadeBOT
#

An add-on is a Docker container with tweaks to allow it to be configured in the Supervisor UI. It is only available in the Supervised installs (#330990055533576204 and #330944238910963714) since if you've used any other install method you're able to install software already.

#

Integrations integrate Home Assistant with devices or services, or provide functionality within Home Assistant. Add-ons provide additional software or services, which an integration could possibility integrate with. Add-ons are for Home Assistant OS and Supervised only, other install methods can install software other ways.

viscid orchid
#

It looks like that generates a Docker container, which could be a candidate for an addon, but not an integration and not through HACS

torpid imp
#

I publish a docker container for ease of deployment, but the main output from the project is a python wheel

viscid orchid
#

Then maybe a library that you would build an integration on. I’m only guessing based on a quick glance at the code

#

It isn’t meaningful to HACS or HA at all in its current form

#

But if the point is to interact with a device and publish to MQTT, then packaging the container as an addon might be more appropriate. Perhaps ask the user what they had in mind

torpid imp
#

I suspect the driver is that they would like a way to run modbus4mqtt as a service, managed by HA in some way. Sounds like an addon would be the best fit for that use-case?

viscid orchid
#

It sounds like it. It would publish to MQTT and HA would discover entities through the topics

#

Loosely coupled

torpid imp
#

righto, thanks for the guidance

Hi. I am trying to play one of several online radio sources using the 3.5 jack of my raspberry pi. But I am confused. I only have speakers with a 3.5mm plug and my Raspberry with HA.
Tell me what kind of plug-in for playing online radio through the 3.5 connector. Or maybe there is a solution for playing sound on 2-3 Bluetooth speakers from my Raspberry pi...
please

Hi. Yesterday, after updating to the new and latest version, my recorder and connection to the local MariaDB stopped working. I tried to look for any changes, but I didn't. Can anyone please advise me? About half a year ago, some changes were in some signs.

Hey,
i try to enable duckdns behind a fritzbox.
The update of the IP works but the HA instance is not reachable from the domain.
above the config i use

median dragon
#

you use port 443?

#

and are you actualy testing from outside? like with your phones mobile connection?

mellow zephyr
#

getting a "ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT"

#

with another domain from fritxbox "myfritz" it is working

median dragon
#

id test with external conection to make sure the portforward actualy works

#

it might not work from within the network without enabling nat loopback on the router

mellow zephyr
#

Did that right now but it didn't work

#

I guess it is related to the domain from duck

median dragon
#

it shouldnt be

#

if it points to the correct ip and your portforwarding is correct it should work

#

does that myfritz thing point to the same ip?

viscid orchid
#

hard to say

#

is this related to an addon?

#

if you're using the SSH addon to generate the keys, then the typical mistakes are not putting the private key in the right place and not pointing to the private key in the SSH command line

coral panther
#

yeah I figured it was related to the specifics of 'ssh and web terminal'. I basically went through the guide above step by step and no dice. -vvvv output shows it at least trying the key but then for some reason says disable method, super weird.
debug1: Offering public key: /config/.ssh/id_rsa.pub RSA debug3: send packet: type 50 debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply debug3: receive packet: type 51 debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password,keyboard-interactive debug2: we did not send a packet, disable method debug3: authmethod_lookup keyboard-interactive debug3: remaining preferred: password

#

but possibly just related to how homeassitant_os is setup so I can ask in another channel if theres a better one. I'm coming from an older HA setup that I'm trying to convert and need some SSH commands integrated into it, and passwordless SSH was how I had it setup before.

viscid orchid
#

What ssh command line did you use?

#

The other typical issue is wrong permissions on the local or remote .ssh directory

coral panther
#

I used Putty once the add-on was enabled. Tried from both the session given initially from Putty as well as through running docker exec -it homeassistant bash, both unfortunately prompted for password.

viscid orchid
#

Are you trying to ssh into HA or out of it?

coral panther
#

out of it, into it was fine. I've got another PI i'm using as a test.

viscid orchid
#

That’s why I was confused with the mention of Putty

coral panther
#

ah, my bad haha. yeah in is fine, out is giving me grief though.

#

tried ssh-copy-id and even manually copying the pub key over just to be 100% and even the verbose output basically just says 'nope'

viscid orchid
#

Ok, I understand

#

What ssh command line did you use?

coral panther
#

?? Like the actual command I'm using to try and connect?

viscid orchid
#

Yes

#

The one that’s requesting a password

coral panther
#

ssh -vvvv -i /config/.ssh/id_rsa.pub pi@raspberrypi

viscid orchid
#

You’re passing the wrong key

coral panther
#

I tried both and they both shot me down. Lemme try real quick

viscid orchid
#

Remove .pub

#

No random tries 🙂

coral panther
#

yeah, no dice on that either.

viscid orchid
#

Then:

#

The other typical issue is wrong permissions on the local or remote .ssh directory

#

700

coral panther
#

thought I disabled strictmodes check but thats a good call, lemme double check it

viscid orchid
#

Not with that command line

#

The private key needs to be 600

coral panther
#

yeah priv key is 600 and just changed dir to 700, still prompted.

#

Figured it'd explicitly say a perm issue in -vvvv output too if it was a perm issue. Maybe something with the actual sshd_config?

viscid orchid
#

dunno

coral panther
#

hmm, just noticed early in the output it says Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config which I believe is different than the normal sshd_config that the plugin uses.

Thanks for the link and the hand though, I'll dig through to see what I can find.

mild osprey
#

@coral panther do restorecon -Rv in the ssh folder and on the ssh folder, you might have screwed up contexts

#

Tag me if you still have issues with this, ive dealt with ssh issues in my job so much I will likely be able to help out

Does anybody have experience with the Assistant Relay add-on from Apipa169? I'm trying to send a command to Google Assistant to turn on my ViewSonic projector which is (kind of) supported by Google Assistant. If I tell Google Assistant "Talk to ViewSonic to turn on" the projector turns on. If I try the same with Assistant Relay it does absolutely nothing. Even though asking about the weather does work in Assistant Relay so there is a working connection with Google Assistant. Is it even possible what I'm trying to achieve with Home Assistant? If this is better placed in another channel, please let me know so I can move myself to the correct channel 🙂 thanks!

viscid orchid
#

Assistant Relay is very unreliable for anything other than voice announcements

#

@mild osprey Thanks! Very much appreciated. Would you mind if I DM you?

coral panther
#

welp, nevermind, I'm a dummy. Turned out to be bad perms on the server in /home/pi. Didn't realize the perms had to be applied to that parent directory as well, especially considering that it worked fine with other nodes on the network prior to the perm change.
In case it helps anyone else out, running sudo /usr/sbin/sshd -d -p 2222 on the server and connecting from HA showed the error which was Authentication refused: bad ownership or modes for directory /home/pi .
Running grep 'sshd' /var/log/auth.log will also show it but may not be as clear as doing the debug mode.
Thanks again robc and coachsylvester for the hand.

how can I get full log from specific addon?

in the logs tab it keeps showing only part of it I want to see it all

sly kindle
#

@sly badge did you click on "refresh"

#

you have to keep clicking it to see more

sly badge

Yes

#

but stuff from before goes away

#

I want it from start to finish

#

it's long log

you could output the addon log to a file using the ssh terminal

Hello guys,
i'm currently running several HomeMatic IP Components with Debmatic, connected to Home Assistant.

As I have many issues with Debmatic, i tought about moving to the HomeMatic-Addon, is it compatible to the RPI-RF-MOD (via HB-RF-USB-TK module)?

I installed the addon, connected the device, its shown in lsusb on hassos host, but not in /dev/ I guess

Hi everyone, I'm running HA in a VM, have influxDB and Grafana, and I'm able to display most things in a dashboard, however, I have some sensors that don't seem to update consistantly to influxDB. If I check their logs in ESPHome, or look at the sensors in HA, everything seems fine, but they don't show data points in Grafana consistantly (meaning some 5min segments don't log a datapoint.

Any suggestions?

#

Hi all, new to HA, abit confused about the supervised/hasio stuff. I have HA running in docker on my ubuntu server, and another docker container running frigate

vocal juniper
#

It was also confusing to me. In the end I switched from PC -> PI4 and then to and ESXi VM. It depends on your needs but for me the VM (with supervised/HAOS) works best

#

You simply press a button insite HA - of course you can try starting all sorts of docker containers outside ppl have created (which hives you more freedom - that you almost never really need)

eager abyss
#

Honestly, I don't want to go through that effort, I just want to install the frigate proxy in my own container and call it a day, but I'm not experience enough with docker to understand how

vocal juniper
#

I totally agree with you. But the add-on containers are sweet and simple and integrated with haos - anything else you get from docker hub requires heavy manual integration steps

#

also add-ons comes in two flavors - some are just a Dockefile - others have an entry in the config file to download a prebuild / streamlined images from docker hub

eager abyss
#

feels wrong to run HAOS in a VM imho

vocal juniper
#

Well - I didn't invent the add-on system. HASO offers a level of integration that the plain docker approach doesn't have (at last I don't know how to add it if it exists).

sly kindle
#

Now, esxi on a pi....meh

#

Why not just run HA OS on the pi?

Using a NUC atm, may switch to a VM

Are you running ha os directly on the nuc right now?

Does anyone know why Let's Encrypt keeps stopping itself? I had it going with DuckDNS on an older iteration then I moved and started from scratch and am just now getting outside access going again. I can get to it with http: but not https: and every time I check Let's Encrypt it's off.

@crimson cliff let'sencrypt doesn't need to run except to get and renew the certificate

#

Are you using the duckdns addon?

crimson cliff
#

@sly kindle Yes. It works with the duckdns url but not with HTTPS, just HTTP

sly kindle
#

If you're using the duckdns addon you don't need the LetsEncrypt addon

#

It has it built in

Oh, I didn't know that. I just copied my older setup. Any idea why HTTPS doesn't work then?

Does anybody know if DNS over https or TLS is possible with the AdGuard addon and nginx proxy manager addon?

Hello 🙂 Apologies if I am being stupid but I have installed the Adguard into HA and I am getting "502: Bad Gateway", did I miss a step? 😄

waxen plume
#

rapidly reaching the end of the tether here so i'm gonna ask here as a last ditch in case i'm missing something obvious. ESPHome, broken pipe on almost every firmware OTA, what few references i can find to this are either "solved" (their solution doesn't work) or "locked to collaborators" with no explanation as to why this problem is being ignored. Am I alone on this?

sly kindle
#

@waxen plume what is the error?

#

You have the new release and are trying to update the devices?

tepid path
#

Weird, the Adguard now shows up but doesn't actually block anything lol

sly kindle
#

Your devices need to be using the HA IP as DNS server, or your router/dhcp needs to be handing it out

tepid path
#

All point to HA IP

waxen plume
#

It's just any OTA update I try to do, i've had this problem for months now and it carries through every update of ESPHome so far. The error is "Broken pipe" after a paralysingly slow OTA update gets a few percent in and then fails

#

@sly kindle ^

#

maybe 1 in 100 attempts is successful, so far my update process consists of sitting watching tv while hitting "retry" until it works

sly kindle
#

a quick search at the esphome discord shows me too much for a single answer

@viscid orchid Ah ok so it needs to be.
peers:
pre_shared_key: KEY

I find only one way out .. it is a complete reinstallation and data loss. Because these are glitches and before backup it was required to stop all addons

before writing here, I searched for several hours for answers, and the solution always converged to one thing - removing the add-on and reinstalling. But I have a backup file, maybe it will be possible to restore something outside the system, I need statuses and events for analytics and dissertation

weary stratus
#

@viscid orchid Ok so I'm still having issues, I followed the docs again and here is my config:

#

in the logs under peers it shows: preshared key: (hidden) but it's not actually in the config file so I must have something else wrong. The above key is just an example one

viscid orchid
#

Unfortunately, I don’t actually use the addon or a preshared key in my WireGuard install

weary stratus
#

hmm ok thanks for the help! do you run a separate wireguard server?

viscid orchid
#

Yes

weary stratus
#

I'm curious because I might actually look at moving wireguard to a dedicated rpi3

#

you just running it on ubuntu as well?

viscid orchid
#

I did, but now in pfSense

weary stratus
#

ah nice, yeah I mgiht go that route as well actually. you using duckdns or some other domain? I really want to use Stream (cloudflare) but it's a paid feature

viscid orchid
#

My own domain

weary stratus
#

ah ok well thanks!

amber perch
weary stratus
#

@viscid orchid you don't have to answer but are using a registrar like cloudflare to host your domain? the reason I ask is because the only way to host a domain in cloudflare is have it direct and not proxied(which I don't really like)

viscid orchid
#

I just use Amazon Route53 for DNS

weary stratus
#

hmm I might have to look into that then. thanks

#

is AWS Route53 expensive for you or no?

viscid orchid
#

$1/month

weary stratus
#

wow that's super cheap lol do you have it on your phone all the time?

viscid orchid
#

have what?

#

oh, Wireguard connected all the time? no

#

my DNS hosting is unrelated to Wireguard

I'm looking to explore home assistant as an automation solution for a client. I'm feeling dumb because I do not see a simple get a home-assistant with add-ons support up

viscid orchid
#

not clear what you're looking for

#

how to install Home Assistant?

#

the sane option is Home Assistant OS installed on some device

oak otter
#

I am a software guy, not traditionally a hardware guy. Developing POC on my dev laptop

viscid orchid
#

right

#

that's why I recommended Home Assistant OS

oak otter
#

Do you have a recommendation on which to pick for ubuntu?

viscid orchid
#

or use a Raspberry Pi

#

but yes, if you're planning to support a client, you'll need to do some research

oak otter
#

If the POC works, I will acquire the pi's and install home-assistant on there, as you suggest.

But sans having the pi's on hand, I need to learn one of those technologies to attempt the POC.

#

Do you have a recommendation on which to use?

carmine bear
#

Hi guys. I configured Nabu Casa and linked alexa to it but home assistant isnt seeing any of my devices even tho alexa can see them. any idea why/?

viscid orchid
#

depends on the OS and hardware you do have on hand. there are relatively detailed instructions there for each

viscid orchid
carmine bear
#

so any idea how i can see the echo device and other devices alexa has access to on HA?

viscid orchid
#

but again, you won't be able to directly see or control devices that are linked to Alexa. You can, through that integration, send commands to Alexa as though you were speaking to it, and you could control devices that way

carmine bear

Hi! I'm having some trouble setting up PLEX with my HA. I have my HA running behind a reverse proxy. Just installed the add-on and when I press "Open Web-UI" it redirects me to my.ip:32400/web and just times out. Is there some setting I need to change or do I need to port-forward 32400? Any help really appreciated

#

Using supervisor on bullseye btw if that makes any difference

Hi, i see no one responded
i am no superuser my self but i am starting rom scratch on HA and found google search usually gives you what you need. In your perticular case let me give it a go and see if i can help you
when you say "it redirects me to my.ip:32400/web" my.ip is ur external IP (public) or interal (192.168.x.x / 172.x.x.x)? if it is public then yes, it needs to be port forwarded on your router

I'm looking to use the HDMI out on my HA pi4 that lives behind my TV. Set up a slideshow off my google photos album. MagicMirror seems like a nice idea. All documentation references hass.io and adding the repo gives me an error on installation. Ideas?

Hi. I was referred here from the Zigbee channel due to some z2m issues. Since z2m is an external add-on is this channel welcome for questions about it or should I head to a different server for this? The question is specifically about the Error: Failed to connect to the adapter (Error: SRSP - SYS - ping after 6000ms) error. Which persists after trying all the FAQ options as well as a re-flash. The stick works fine on ubuntu z2m docker, but not on the Hass Add-on.

Hello.

Could it be that the hassio-addons/ubuntu-base image has issues currently? If I'm trying to build an image based off of it, I get an error that /bin/bash doesn't exist.

I also tried to look into the image itself and it seems that /bin/bash indeed does not exist, even though SHELL is still set to that path. Not sure if I'm missing something or this is a bug?

That overwrites the /bin directory, because it is a symlink to /usr/bin

Sorry if this is the incorrect place to ask, but what is the difference between the integration that shows up in the add on store called "matrix" and this component(https://github.com/home-assistant/core/tree/2021.10.6/homeassistant/components/matrix). To which I mean, the first one seems to deploy a whole matrix home server locally to your HA server, and the later should just be a Matrix client for sending notifications....but if that is true, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install just the later component. TIA.

Hey everyone, I'm having a lot of trouble with Z-Wave on a RasPi. At first I was using the HA version of Z-Wave JS, but I'm trying to switch to "Z-Wave JS to MQTT". Even though I uninstalled Z-Wave JS multiple times it keeps on coming back somehow. I've searched Google for a while, and I found someone that seems to have had the same problem and he resolved it by editing /root/config/.storage/core.config_entries , adding "use_addon": false to the entry for Z-Wave JS. Sadly that didn't solve my problem either. Any suggestions?

SAMBA add-on. Still seems broken in that it won't prompt for credentials when the Windows logged on user account is different to the configured account (typically when using someone@maildomain.com, like a regular Win10 user would to hotmail or gmail account). Previously, this used to pop the regular credential dialog up and you'd type the configured user and pass; now, no prompt, just a crash as per a few threads in github (https://github.com/home-assistant/addons/issues/2055) but they seem to all be closed and no responses to getting it looked at / fixed. Anyone with thoughts ?

I still dont understand I guess

You removed the credentials completely in credential manager?

There's no entry for the ip address at all?

#

I think removing it completely would be the only way to get it to prompt

# sly kindle I still dont understand I guess

I think you have figured it out... that's the problem. it used to prompt, but after updates, it no longer prompts (but should) and reports the server-side crash. I can't tell you when it stopped, but there are lots of people reporting the same issue... So really I am not trying to work around it I am trying to see how to get attention on fixing the issue

I installed 2 fresh installations recently and I got prompted both times after setting up samba. connecting from windows and linux

but I wasn't using email addresses as user names

lyric prairie
#

thats the common theme...

windows with email address is a common win10 pattern

sly kindle
#

that's why I advised not using the email address

#

I don't think the samba server supports that

#

the @

lyric prairie
#

sure, but it's then supposed to prompt 🙂

sly kindle
#

and it does for me

lyric prairie
#

do you have and email address user name yourself tho? So the problem might be the @ now is not handled and crashes it, rather than initiate the credential request

Hi, I am trying to connect to the Grocy addon API through Home assistant, I can connect to the HASSIO Restful api using a long term token, however I can't figure out how to then connect to the addon.
I have a authorization and the grocy api key in the header file
It looked like I had to use the supervisor api to ingress to the addon, but the api page wasn't clear on that, I couldn't figure out how to authenticate against the supervisor.
I am receiving this error when I try to connect to the Grocy addon restful api, "21-10-27 20:59:46 ERROR (MainThread) [supervisor.api.middleware.security] Invalid token for access /ingress/......."
I did try including "X-Supervisor-Token" in the header with the contents of the system variable $SUPERVISOR_TOKEN, but that didn't work either
When authentication with the long term token in the authorization header and setting the X-Supervisor-Token header to the $Supervisor_Token value the response is 403: Forbidden

❓ When installing add-ons that have a http/web portal e.g. esphome, does HA provide any proxy or security layer or does the the add-on simple get served on another port?

Ok, SAMBA add-on again, there's another report today that appears to have no (a) sign in the user ID. https://github.com/home-assistant/addons/issues/2246 is the issue. That probably means it's a bug when the presented username doesn't exist/match one in the directory. I poked around the SAMBA project and can see it's a fair way ahead in supported versions and at a minimum the add-on would need to move from the current 4.13.8 to 4.13.13 (today's release) to be considered for a security fix, but should move to the 4.15 branch which is the current stable branch...

ok, gotcha i will see if i can find it

#

how do you determine the add-on network?

sly kindle
#

all the add-on containers are going to be 172.30.33.X

but you could verify that if you want using the community ssh & web terminal addon

with protection mode off

vale fern
#

do you have a good link to read about it?

#

And just how the add ons are managed in general by the os?

sly kindle
#

they are managed by the supervisor

That was definitely it btw, problem solved!

sly kindle
#

oh good

#

I wasn't sure if there was going to be another thing to check

vale fern
#

nah made it easy for you 😛

sly kindle
#

ha network info in the ssh terminal would show the supervisor ip

vale fern
#

pretty neat, never used the ha cli before

sly kindle
#

but to see the others you would need to use docker commands

#

which ssh addon are you using?

vale fern
#

Terminal & SSH

sly kindle
#

you would need to use the other one

#

"SSH & Web Terminal"

#

similar names, but different features

#

when you turn off protection mode, you can then use docker commands

#

and then you could use this ridiculous thing docker ps -q | xargs -n 1 docker inspect --format '{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}} {{ .Name }}' | sed 's/ \// /'

#

I don't know why docker doesn't have an easier way 🤷

I’m pretty sure I set it to 1.1.1.1 when I set it up, but I remember trying other dns’s and those didn’t work either. I can try it again. I initially set it up with wifi and thought it was that but gave me the same error on Ethernet. Thought it was strange since File Editor installed but nothing else would

So if add-on installation fails, then updates to Supervisor and Core should fail similarly. Do they work? Or is it an intermittent thing? Sometimes work sometimes not?

I am having an issues installing HACS

I have repeated this several times

None of this is an addon

HACs is an add on right

and that worked

It is not

ahh my bad

#

thoguht it was

viscid orchid
rose summit
#

ha fair enough

#

of course there is a support doc 🙂

vocal juniper
#

Is there an easy way to tell HA when to check / download add-on updates?

#

e.g. I want them to happen at 3 am and not when I am working

viscid orchid
#

I don't think so, but the check alone shouldn't in any way affect your work or other stuff going on

#

if you've set them up to auto-update, that's just generally a bad idea

vocal juniper
#

well I don't care about breaking stuff - the plugins do nothing of (real) value for me .. I just care about breaking a Teams call when 3 of them decide to update (this costs money)

viscid orchid

how could that break a Teams call?

vocal juniper

viscid orchid
#

you must have some tin cans

The link I posted creates sensors for them

viscid orchid

just don't have them auto-update

vocal juniper
#

(I asked a question about an update time) - lot's of other plugins have that

viscid orchid
#

alright, there isn't one

vocal juniper
#

e.g. the google drive backup

viscid orchid
#

ok

#

actually, I'm wrong: hassio.addon_update

vocal juniper
#

Maybe scrapting + creating sensors + creating a curl cmd might be the way to go (that is what the link is about) - a bit crazy of course

viscid orchid

do that

Hi. at first I'm not a beginner at least when it comes to a home server with backup and file sharing, a working home media server, watching / recording IP cameras, a torrent client ... Everything works on Windows. I worked as an IT professional in the Windows environment. Because I don’t work anymore and I have more time now and because we are renovating the house, I came across Home Assistant on the internet that caught my attention because I had been thinking about a smart home for a while, but I don’t have the time. The problem arose because Home Assistant is based on the Linux operating system, where I am a complete beginner. If at all possible, I would like to achieve that I only have a Home Assistant and that everything that works for me in Windows works on it, plus home automation in one system. Do you have any suggestions
What I was thinking was how and if I can activate in Home Assistant for the first time, a home server with timed backup and file sharing, a working home media server, IP viewing / recording cameras, a torrent client.

grizzled gyro
#

all of the above is possible

Hi,
I installed Tailscale and restarted 'Server Management' but when I try to open the WEB UI
Tailscale returns error: 502: Bad Gateway so I can't complete the authentication to couple with HA.
I run HA on an Odroid Blue.
I have a Tailscale account .

Any help is appreciated.

google search is of no help so far.

grizzled gyro

@mortal blaze i have had this before from other addons, when you install a new one and do a server restart the first place you goto is the new addon and it throws up a 502 error everytime. Sometimes you have to wait for the docker container to be " ready " if you have checked that its not a config or auth problem to start with...try restarting the server then waiting 15 mins before checking the new addon

mortal blaze
#

Just in case I have also cleared the browser cache with no improvement.

Tailscale doesn't allow user configuration.

Why do add-ons have auto-update default off? Or perhaps my question is better asked as is there a reason I shouldn't put that on for everything?

viscid orchid
#

You shouldn’t auto update because you should review the change log and potentially adjust your configuration and understand any changes in behavior bevies updating

#

I’m surprised that auto update is even an option

analog plinth
#

Breaking changes happen relatively often?

viscid orchid
#

You should be aware if/when they do

You asked if there was a reason not to turn it on for everything, and that’s the reason

Sorry poundy, i tagged the wrong person

@sly kindle Sorry, I see this was meant for me since it is the Tailscale repository. Thanks. Stupid clueless question: should I install this repository one instead of the Supervisor-Tailscale add-on in HA?

That's the repository for the addon I have used on an odroid

#

You add that repository to the addon store.

Is that the same one you are using?

Tsujamin?

It's the only one with tailscale that I have known of, but that doesn't mean there can't be a dozen others

The Tailscale that failed is the Supervisor-add-on from the Add-on Store. I will try your suggestion. I think Frenck is the author for the Add-on store one. I really appreciate it.

hi - I'm recovering my HA OS install after a series of power cuts and restarts occurred in a very short period. I may have made mistakes along the way. Although everything is mostly back up and running, the Add-On store is missing some standard repositories. Can I add these back as custom repositories? And if so, do you have the complete list of the standard repositories?

trying to update zigbee2mqtt... auto update not doing what it says on the box

#

any hints? the documentation is unwilling to reveal

#

Zigbee2MQTT is not auto-updating... I install from scratch using the add-ons and it installs 1.18.1-1... the current stable version is v1.21.2-1

There are no instructions for how to install manually... wtaf man???

#

I almost yeeted my rpi4 HA out of a 30 storey window today...

mortal blaze
#

I wonder if Tailscale runs well on Amber?
Tailscale doesn't seem to work with my Odroid N2+ Blue and I have also not been successful with tsujamin repo at https://github.com/tsujamin/hass-addons/tree/main/tailscale kindly suggested by cognito. Tailscale works fine on HA on a Linux Mint Virtualbox VM. My original post has more info: #add-ons-archived message. I'm sorry for the bump but if it runs on Amber and I can't get it to work in Odroid I might buy it.

sly kindle
#

@mortal blaze the OS you run in a VM is the same OS on either of the others mentioned.

mortal blaze
#

BTW I could easily be doing something wrong but I've tried different things for some time now. Just in case: I generated the key for the tsujamin version using Puttygen. I hope that is correct.

#

Permissions maybe? This is what I think is the cause, from the log: ```2021/11/01 09:47:11 logpolicy: using system state directory "/var/lib/tailscale"
logpolicy.Read /var/lib/tailscale/tailscaled.log.conf: open /var/lib/tailscale/tailscaled.log.conf: no such file or directory

sly kindle
#

I started the addon up and it's working fine for me right now. I'm at the login for my HA instance in a browser using the IP address provided by tailscale

#

HA is running on the odroid Blue

#

This is not an odroid problem

#

Not a hardware problem

mortal blaze
#

Ok, Where are you getting the IP from? On the VM Tailscale gives me the IP, but on the Odroid it doesn't or I don't know where to find it.

#

I've tried several ways to enter the key. I believe the correct way is ssh-rsa followed by the key.

sly kindle
#

I have the app installed on my phone and it shows all the devices associated with my account

#

Which, at this point is only the HA instance and the phone itself

mortal blaze
#

On my android phone, the only device Tailscale lists is the phone. So HA is not connected.

#

Then my issue is likely how I'm entering the keyfile. I get this log entry before it prints the key: 2021/11/01 10:21:16 netmap packet filter: (not ready yet) too many non-flag arguments: . Using privkey.pem doesn't work either.

#

The add-on you started just now, was it the one by Frenck or the one you had installed previously by tsujamin ?

#

@sly kindle Yours works, so I just have to sort out what I'm doing wrong. I'll keep at it and don't want to waste any more of your time. Thanks so much.

Zigbee2MQTT is not auto-updating... I install from scratch using the add-ons and it installs 1.18.1-1... the current stable version is v1.21.2-1😩

flint minnow
#

where are you seeing that the latest stable is 1.21.2-1?

#

because I'd guess that is the latest version of the standalone container, and that the addon hasn't been updated yet

#

idk where that sticker came from

#

actually, it does look like it's updated

#

do you have the repo for it installed?

from the github repository

#

-do you have the repo for it installed?

I'd like to, but the README offers no such method for doing so

That's nice...

#

Was that supposed to mean something?

flint minnow
#

I offered you a method for doing so

snow granite
#

Alright.,.. thanks for your effort but I'm obviously too stupid fopr thie program... It's yeet time

#

If you're asking if I downloaded, extracted, and replaced the files in my zigbee2MQTT folder then yes...

#

Bubkus

flint minnow
#

that's not what I was asking lol

snow granite
#

But if you're telling me there's a secret spell I have to use in the process, then yeet

flint minnow
#

nor would that be the recommended way at all

#

no secret thing...

#

in your supervisor, in the addon store, clock the three dots in the top left

#

then you can choose to add a repository

#

paste the url I gave you there

#

and then you'll have added the repo

#

similar to the process described here

snow granite
#

Bless you, sir... I'm standing down my yeet army

#

Why was I getting a stuck zigbee2mqtt 1.18.1-1 from a freesh install?

flint minnow
#

usually reading some docs or asking direct questions is a good way of getting information you require

#

no idea, did you add the addon repo?

#

if not, then I'm not sure how you installed it in the first place

snow granite
#

I'd have to recall from memory so the short answer is ¯_(ツ)_/¯

flint minnow
#

is it listed already when you go to add the repo?

snow granite
#

Yes

#

I'm getting a port already in use now... is that from my ZHA integration... can you not run both at the same time?

#

I installed an egony zigbee gateway after Zigbee2MQTT went bye bye

#

I still have my old texas instruments zigbee stick... the ZHA integration is... well... unreliable... missing various entities... My xiaomi wireless switches for example...

#

Power yes, but nothing else

flint minnow
#

I'm honestly not sure if you can run both

#

not from the same stick at the same time I don't think

snow granite
#

raspberry pi4 running off a PoE hat

#

I was thinking, run both and what doesn't work on the ZHA integration, try it on the zigbee2MQTT add on

#

Seemed a reasonable guess...

flint minnow
#

I'd pick one and use it for everything

#

that's just my opinion though

snow granite
#

I'm getting this "Port '8485' is already in use by something else on the host." so I think you might be right

#

Time to yeet ZHA and roll the dice in zigbee2mqtt... again... haiz

I am having issues with MQTT currently and hoping someone might be able to help me out. I am running Home Assistant on an RPi 4 that I just recently set up(ran from Synology before).
I have three Sonoff devices running Tasmota that I would like to get into Home Assistant.

Thinking I could maybe do without MQTT altogether, as I only use it for these three devices, I tried installing "TasmoAdmin" from the Add-on store, but that add-on seems to be dead. When I start it, it simply dies and cannot access the web interface. I do not even know if this add-on, if it worked, could integrate with my Tasmota devices, so I decided to look back into MQTT.

I succesfully installed the Mosquitto broker from the add-on store. Afterwards Mosquitto broker showed up in my integrations where I added it. Now I basically have no idea how to get the Tasmota devices to connect to the broker. I entered my Pi's IP as host, kept port at 1883 and it wouldn't connect. I tried making a new user for MQTT in Home Assistant, along with a password, and also added that to the Tasmota config, but not joy.
Any clues?

sly kindle
#

have you tried the tasmota integration?

urban path
#

I did not know there was one to be honest

#

It seems it requires the MQTT stuff too

sly kindle
#

you still need to configure them to point to your ha ip /mosquitto broker

urban path
#

Yeah, so I need that working first I guess

sly kindle
#

for the mosquitto addon, no config is needed. start it up, watch the logs

#

sounds like you have that

urban path
#

Yes, that seems to be running

sly kindle
#

you found the integration, and added that

#

did you check the box for discovery?

urban path
#

I don't think I see that anywhere

#

In the add-on or integration?

sly kindle
#

when you added the integration

urban path
#

Not sure, I think I did

sly kindle
#

ok, and then on one of the tasmota devices

#

you might go to the console and enter setoption19

#

confirm what the setting is

urban path
#

It's ON

sly kindle
#

ok for the tasmota integration you want that off

#

so setoption19 0

urban path
#

ok that's off now

sly kindle
#

and next, when it comes back up, go to mqtt config

#

on the tasmota device

#

host is ip address of HA

#

port 1883

urban path
#

Yep. It's still connected to the MQTT broker on my Synology.

sly kindle
#

oh

#

well which do you want to use

urban path
#

Trying to move it over to the new broker was what did not work

#

I will try now to change the host

sly kindle
#

ok. set that to the HA ip then

#

user should be any HA user you have existing

#

and the password which goes with that

#

if you created a new user just for mqtt that's fine

urban path
#

Hmm that seemed to work. Maybe it was the option19 thing

sly kindle
#

you got it showing up in the tasmota integration card?

urban path
#

I will add the tasmota integration now

#

But I don't see it failing to connect anymore in the Tasmota console

sly kindle
#

ah ok

urban path
#

what do I put for Discovery topic prefix when I install the integration?

#

It defaults to "tasmota/discovery"

sly kindle
#

I dont change anything

urban path
#

Ok

#

nothing is showing up on the card it seems

sly kindle
#

it might take a minute

#

you may see it discovered and get a notification in the lower corner of HA

#

lower left

urban path
#

Ok

sly kindle
#

you could also try restarting HA

#

depending on how you feel

#

lol

urban path
#

Hmmm

#

One of my tasmota devices now showed up, but not on the Tasmota card, rather on the Mosquitto broker card

sly kindle
#

do you have a mqtt config entered for it?

#

or was it discovered?

urban path
#

I guess it was discovered. I didn't manually add it in Home Assistant. I just entered the HA brokers ip, user and pass on my Tasmota devices

sly kindle
#

this wasn't the one you were just editing?

#

above?

#

I'm thinking if you restart the broker addon, and maybe the tasmota device too, you'll have that one showing up in the tasmota integration

#

Then you could compare and decide which you want to use

#

mqtt discovery vs tasmota

#

though tasmota is not updating mqtt discovery anymore, so I believe manual mqtt or tasmota integration are what you want to choose from

foggy haven
#

Hey, I'm also having a problem with MQTT, but I may just be missing a step or something. I've installed and started the Mosquitto broker add-on and now need to add the integration, but it isn't being auto-discovered. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the broker add-on and restarting the server, neither worked. Is the MQTT integration that you can manually add the same thing? Can I just use that one or is the automatic one special in some way?

#

Referring to this part of the setup, by the way:

To use the Mosquitto as a broker, go to the integration page and install the configuration with one click:

    Navigate in your Home Assistant frontend to Configuration -> Integrations.
    MQTT should appear as a discovered integration at the top of the page
    Select it and check the box to enable MQTT discovery if desired, and hit submit.
urban path
#

Hmm after I rebooted HA to see if all three of my Tasmota devices would show up, none of them show up now

#

On neither the Tasmota card or MQTT broker card that is

urban path
#

When I restart my MQTT broker add-on, I can see in the console on all three of my Tasmota devices that they loose connection and manage to reconnect a couple of seconds after. So I assume they are connected?

#

I will try and start over, cause I am not getting anywhere 😦

urban path
#

Oh I found out now @foggy haven . The MQTT broker add-on does not start automatically, when you start it, it should be auto discovered.

foggy haven
foggy haven
urban path
#

Oh crap

foggy haven
#

I did notice that Mosquitto is not listed in my add-ons in the info tab in Configuration, but MQTT is listed as an integration, even though that is the opposite of what is currently installed...

urban path
#

In the documentation it says that there should be a check box to enable MQTT discovery, but that check box never appears. I assume that is why it is not discovering my devices

sly kindle
#

it should be set to start automatically at boot

urban path
#

hmm

#

I notice in the requirements on the Tasmota integration documentation it says "Tasmota devices flashed with version 9.2, or later (tasmota-lite.bin does not support this integration)."

#

My devices are all running "Sonoff-Tasmota 6.6.0 by Theo Arends"

#

So I guess the Tasmota integration is out of the question for me, I have to get MQTT discovery working instead

sly kindle
#

@urban path yeah sorry. you want to update those

urban path
#

Can't I just use the MQTT discovery instead? I don't feel like updating them and risking something going wrong. Those three Tasmota devices (relays) run our homes ventilation system, so cannot risk them going down.

sly kindle
#

sure?

urban path
#

Ok good, then I just have to figure out why the "Mosquitto broker" integration does not pick them up

sly kindle
#

well if you want mqtt discovery, then setoption19 1 for each

#

so they can be discovered

#

you disable that for the tasmota integration

urban path
#

ah

#

That did the trick, now they show up, thanks

foggy haven
sly kindle
#

@foggy haven the mqtt integration is removed?

foggy haven
#

After installing the mosquitto add-on and navigating to the integrations page, there is no auto-discovered integration waiting for me like it says there should be and no MQTT integration anywhere on the page. I've installed the add-on multiple times and it hasn't popped up.

#

Can I just manually add the MQTT integration with localhost as the broker or something?

sly kindle
#

you wouldnt use localhost.

#

but you'd rather it works as it should I think

#

the integration isn't already added or anything?

and when you click on it to add that does it give you any error?

foggy haven
#

And I did partially do this set up in the past before deleting it all

sly kindle
#

or just the usual fields to fill in

#

that's what it should show if it's already added

foggy haven
#

Oh, I don't see anything like that

#

Just normal setup

#

Asking for the broker info

sly kindle
#

yeah ok. so that's good

#

I would leave that alone

#

uninstall the broker add-on

#

then do a full reboot of the host from supervisor > system > host card

foggy haven
#

Alright, I'll give that a shot, brb

#

@sly kindle - Okay, host rebooted. I assume I should just attempt the normal installation steps again from this point?

Under configuration > info > integrations, I'm still seeing MQTT even though it is not listed under configuration > integrations and I don't have the Mosquitto add-on. Just seems odd to me, it might think I already have the integration and not be discovering it because of that? Trying a new install of the mosquitto add-on right now though, we'll see

#

Nothing still, after the uninstall, reboot, reinstall

#

Just added the MQTT integration manually with 127.0.0.1 as the broker and it worked, all my devices got picked up by the Tasmota integration and everything and I turned a light on and off from HA so it appears to be working

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Guess I'll have to see if it breaks on me at some point lol thanks @sly kindle and @urban path!

I have the problem that settings done in the Z2M frontend are lost every time I restart HA (I'm using the HA-Z2M addon). They survive when I restart only Z2M from the frontend. Is this normal? Do I have to take everything over to the addon configuration?

I setup a MQTT discovery switch just like on the https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/mqtt/discovery/ page. It showed up in HA but I am not able to toggle it off. I can toggle the switch and I see in MQTT set= = ON. The toggle then moved to the off position but set still = ON. I can toggle the switch on then off quickly and the set will go to off. Is there something else that needs to be added that is not documented?

plush arrow
#

Never mind. I just figured it out. There is no actual switch so I didn't have a response to the state command. I made optimistic true and it works as expected with my test environment.

Hi all, anyone else had issues with the Adguard addons crashing HAOS on RPI4 to crash? Seems to frequently spike the CPU, then evently die, been happening ever 24 hrs or so.

viscid orchid
#

HACS is unrelated to addons

#

It even says that and gives you a link to the addons

#

Ive managed to install

#

But now when i try do add a dashboard ive get bad gateway error

#

Any idea why?

viscid orchid

It usually means the addon isn’t running

Hi is there any way I can make a backup of my home assistant instance without having add on's

#

I currently just synced my config folder to googlr drive but I don't know if that will work when I want to use it with my home assistant on my thin client running debian

viscid orchid
#

take a snapshot and copy it off using samba

#

or do you mean without a supervised install?

#

currently using the let's encrypt addon and the nginx proxy addon with the tls certificate hooked up between them.. any way to get this to autorenew? I setup an automation daily to start the let's encrypt addon because apparently it doesn't try to renew itself but not sure how to

  1. get the proxy to reload (preferably reload, not restart) on successful renewal
  2. listen for a failure event in the addon and send an alert/push notification to me

I just bought Sonoff B05-B-A60 lamps and I an trying to get them to work with home assistant. I am able to to install the eWelink smart home add-on and in the addon the light switch works. When I add a card to the dashboard however, the switch there doesn't work. In the troubleshooting section is says that i need to add some code to the configuration.yaml file and i did that. After I did this is still get the error ¨failed to call service light/turn_on. Service not found.¨ or "failed to call service light/turn_off. Service not found.¨. I dont know how i get this service to work, can someone help me 🙂

I am attempting to sync my current Grocy account with my new Home Assistant account. I am ok with deleting either one but only want one. When accessing Grocy externally it only shows my non Home Assistant account so have been hesitant to delete that one without asking for some help first.

Good evening everyone. Google searching is not resulting in any results for me at the moment. I have a Synology 2419+ and installed HA OS as a VM. I added the MQTT broker and pointed it to the VM IP address and my HVAC devices won't connect. Any suggestions/ideas? Thanks in advance.

Any way to take a snapshot without the supervised install?

#

Or do I just make a backup of the config file and replace it on the thin client I'll be using fir HA?

covert arch
#

you backup the whole config folder

#

including hidden files and .storage

#

but if you're not having supervisor you are not running addons anyway

#

so this is the wrong channel for this question

clever phoenix
#

Ah yes my bad haha

Hey everyone, I'm new to this discord and HASS in general, but maybe someone could help me: I've installed the MQTT/mosquitto addin and I can connect to mosquitto with mosquitto_pub and mosquitto_sub, but I don't receive any message that I've published. I'm connecting anonymously and I set the anonymous flag in the add-ins config, added the allow_anonymous flag in the mosquitto.conf and (I think) added the necessary ACL for it, but it still doesn't seem to work :/

Hey everyone! Since i was searching for a backup solution to Amazon S3 and nothing i found was really working as expected, i created one myself - amazon-s3-backup:
https://github.com/thomasfr/hass-addons/blob/main/amazon-s3-backup/DOCS.md
It uses bash only (with the help of the wonderful bashio lib) and very minimal dependencies (jq and aws-cli). It can be configured to also delete oldest local backups with a configurable amount of newer local backups you want to keep.
I have not yet build and published the docker containers but its possible to locally build it. Feel free to try out. Feedback welcome.

I installes the let's encrypt add-on, and it seems to be working, certs created after AWS Route53 verification. Only 'weird' thing is that the add-in is always stopped (red dot) after a while... Is that normal ?

viscid orchid
#

It probably just needs to run to grab the certs

celest hare
#

@viscid orchid absolutely, but it should run regularly to renew the cert... I suppose when it's red, it doesn't renew ?

viscid orchid
#

Write an automation to start it on a schedule to renew?

celest hare
#

@viscid orchid it's not what I should expect from an official plugin...
But yes, I can do that, but question is: is that normal ?

flint minnow
#

normal in my experience

celest hare
#

@flint minnow should I manually start it then to renew certificates ?

viscid orchid
flint minnow
#

I guess so, if your certificates are bad

Hi, I would like to install the pi hole integration/add-on ?! When i search the integration and click on install, HA asks me for a host. What host do i have to insert there?
I cant find a documentation for the install process

sly kindle
#

The integration does not set up a server. An add-on would.

#

If you can find one for pihole

Is it not possible to use secrets in add-ons?

#

I just get Failed to save add-on configuration, Unknown secret 'hassio_ssh_user' in SSH & Web Terminal
Tried to include the secret in configuration.yaml at some random place and check the config and well it complained about the wrong value, but it did get it.

Hey guys/gals, I have an issue apparently with my nginx add-on. The backstory.. I had no updated my HA core or OS for some time, and the new version required me to add a couple options to my config, specifically use_x_forwarded_for and trusted_proxies. I worked with the guys in the 'Other' section got me squared away.

After the update, although I can connect locally, I can no longer connect via duckdns host externally. Below is my nginx config and log. Any help would be appreciated.

Please see aapparent 'code wall' link above from bot

What's up with the add-on store? How come so many add-ons are made through HACS, instead of being implemented in the add-on store?

sly kindle
#

@pseudo pond someone didn't read any of the boxes they checked when they installed HACs

#

HACS doesn't have any add-ons.

#

The addon store has addons

pseudo pond
#

fine, wrong teminology

#

Question remains, what is the reason that the add-on store is so barren when there are so many programs developed for home assistant

sly kindle
#

There are official integrations and there are custom integrations

#

Compare those two things instead.

#

Addons are services outside of HA. There are no integrations in the addon store. Go to Configuration > Integrations

#

Those are the official integrations.

pseudo pond
#

So the add-ons aren't running locally?

sly kindle
#

They are local

#

Samba is local

#

Ftp is local

#

These are other pieces of software.

pseudo pond
#

Look, I understand the difference between add-ons and official integrations

sly kindle
#

Ok. As a test can you explain it to me?

pseudo pond
#

But for example; Why is it I have to install Local Tuya through HACS, but deConz is in the add-on store, yet zigbee2mqtt isn't, though I can add it through the add-on store through a repository

sly kindle
#

Local Tuya is an integration

#

deConz is a stand alone piece of software

#

Node Red is another stand alone

#

They exist without home assistant

pseudo pond
#

But zigbee2mqtt?

sly kindle
#

That is a stand alone as well

pseudo pond
#

How come it isnt in the add-on store by default

sly kindle
#

You can install these on most systems and never need HA

#

Because anyone can write an addon which adds software

#

What is included is a basic "core" set of add-ons (the official repo) and the community repo.

pseudo pond
#

Is there any reason that z2m isn't featured in the core or community add-ons?

sly kindle
#

Because zigbee2mqtt devs are different people? The Google drive backup addon is also not included by default

#

And many others

pseudo pond
#

So it's by their choice that it isn't included in the community add-ons?

sly kindle
#

The community repo was originally added amd maintained by a specific dev (frenck), so he kind of decides what he adds and maintains

pseudo pond
#

Ahhh, now it makes a bit more sense to me.
I couldn't figure out how so many popular home assistant add-ons weren't featured

#

What I still don't understand is the need for HACS, it seems to me that the programs you can install on your home assistant system through HACS have potentially the same functions as those added through the add-on store.
The google drive add-on for example, seems to me like a "simple" script that uploads files to drive, whereas there are more advanced programs in HACS.

sly kindle
#

HACs is a store front for custom integrations. Integrations are not separate software which exist outside of the HA ecosystem. The official ones are approved and follow HA guidelines. The custom integrations are either in the process, or never going to be approved because they don't meet the guidelines..."hacks"

He still maintains it and stopped adding new addons to the community repo when he joined NC and took on additional responsibilities
