do not reboot as long as you have access somehow ?

#

well, how else would you reboot it without

feral shoal
#

I was hoping that at least some add-on would give me access. But if the Supervisor fails, little to no hope, unless i can do a root logon to HAOS directly. You're right, I was putting too much hope on the central, working well position of my HA box

#

seems only way to fix it is with physical access, as always... Generate the keys, put on USB stick, reboot, use SSH over network or connect keyb/screen locally and get a corrected Supervisor

Hi, can´t update supervisor 2022.11.2 unhealthy system

#

I had a supervisor issue the other day as well, restored the backup, updated again, was fine. shrug. No idea what it was.

#

But it did help trigger me into installing real backups (via google drive backups add-on) so that’s still a win.

#

(PS: with the caveat that I’m using a USB SSD as storage and that there is no SD card in sight, I’ve been fairly happy with my 4 gig pi4 running HAOS. As long as you can get it for actual pricing and not scalper pricing.)

#

(Previous pi projects have entirely cured me of wanting to use SD cards though. Especially Micro.)

HI GUYs currently running
Home Assistant 2022.11.4
Supervisor 2022.11.2
Operating System 9.3

#

I have it in a VM is it possible to run the same version in a docker container ?

#

Hey guys. How can i find out what is preventing HA from leaving the state CoreState.STARTUP?

Is it impossible for me to fix this? I am quiet surprised how hard troubleshooting can be.

Hi! how can I see the reason for the core not starting? all I can se in supervisor logs is ERROR (MainThread) [supervisor.homeassistant.core] Home Assistant has crashed! . docker install on rpi 4. worked fine untill yesterday before an update..

#

I have kind of an emergency. I just upgraded my venv installation and now all integrations are gone. I'm using homeassistant now for serveral years - but this never happend before. Didn't found anything realted in the forums. Help appreciated.

#

I forgot to stop the server before upgrading. Maybe thats is a reason.

#

But problem persists after restart

humble mirage
#

Do you know what version you upgraded from and to?

#

Did you check the log file to see what the problem is?

humble scaffoldBOT
#

If you're having problems with your updates to your configuration:

lethal sleet
#

i resolved the problem pui

#

Almost had a stroke - seems to be some kind of configurtion error - i could checkout my last conf and not the integrations are back 😄

#

sorry for interupter - but so good to know that some people are here 🙂

humble mirage
#

Yeah, always run the check command after you upgrade and before you start

humble scaffoldBOT
lethal sleet
#

in fact i did check

humble mirage
#

My own process on a venv is:

  1. Read the release notes
  2. Upgrade
  3. Config check command (NOT the UI)
  4. Fix issues
  5. Restart
#

The UI check isn't helpful during upgrades

lethal sleet
#

i added 3 mqtt listeners and addes sampling_sizes to statistis sensors - i though it might be safe to do parallel to server upgrade

#

oh i thought the ui config check is as good as console check

#

ah

#

i see what you mean

#

yes

#

very good idea

#

do you think venv is still a good idea - i feel a bit deprecated

#

however i don't want to run a seperate machine just for homeassistant when i already have a bigger debian server

Hmm I'm having trouble redirecting a subdomain to my HA, anyone who can help?
I'm running a webserver on port 443, with the domain example.org.

In cloudflare I have an A record with the name example.com and the content is my public IP.
This all works well and has for a while.

#

Now I've added an A record with the name ha and content my IP.

in my enabled sites I have the config from the guide:

#
  ServerName ha.example.org
  ProxyPreserveHost On
  ProxyRequests off
  ProxyPass /api/websocket ws://localhost:8123/api/websocket
  ProxyPassReverse /api/websocket ws://localhost:8123/api/websocket
  ProxyPass / http://localhost:8123/
  ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8123/

  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} =websocket [NC]
  RewriteRule /(.*)  ws://localhost:8123/$1 [P,L]
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} !=websocket [NC]
  RewriteRule /(.*)  http://localhost:8123/$1 [P,L]
</VirtualHost>```

I get an entry in my access log but not much else

Ahh wait, I get HTTP integration is not set-up for reverse proxies so I suppose I have to enable that i HA as well, will investigate

I have the Let's Encrypt add-on installed and configured. I can see the incoming "GET /.well-known/acme-challenge" on my Nginx proxy server, but it's all 404 - is there something more I need to setup within HA for http challenges? It's as if the directory does not exist.

i have uninstalled home assistant on docker container but in the backup page i can only create backup.. i can't restore.. how i can restore a .tar backup?

brisk willow
#

Extract the HA config from the tarball and copy it to wherever you want your HA config to be at on the host

wooden tusk
#

How can I see if /.well-known/acme-challenge actually exists within HA? This is Let's Encrypt related.

low notch
#

Letsencrypt expects this at http:// and you should only expose ha with https:// so either use a reverse proxy and/or dns verification

wooden tusk
#

I've installed the core-ssh add-in to see if that gives access to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log - it does not. /var/log is empty. Seems I must go deeper.

I'm struggling with home assistant installation on TrueNAS scale
I am aware that @rough falcon is using a regular docker image successfully, but that method disables the possibility of installing other charts (3rd party apps on Scale).
My problem is with the network configuration (home assistant starts and is able to install integrations, and show panels of other apps such as node-red...). Some integrations (e.g. Shelly, LocalTuya) require to receive broadcast/multicast messages for device discovery. I've not been able to properly setup the kubernetes container to pass the necessary packets.
has anyone been successful in installing home assistant in conjunction with other charts in TrueNAS Scale?

rough falcon
#

I don't know anywhere near enough about kubernetes to help with this... I thought you could just enable host network in the TrueCharts version? Maybe you can try installing the docker-compose TrueCharts app and run Home Assistant from there. I've used that in the past with macvlan and multicast worked as far as I could tell.

#

Hey guys. I'm really struggling to understand this, as I'm not familiar with Docker at all. What's the best approach to installing HA in my setup?
I have a rack server with TrueNas Core installed. On that, I have a couple of VMs. Should HA be another VM on truenas?

Well, got it installed on a Raspberry Pi 4, but now it's stuck on a screen that just says "Home Assistant" and nothing else. Rebooting did not help. https://imgur.com/a/JD9xtKr

Hey, I'm setting HA on a x86 box, but it keeps getting stuck on the screen that says waiting for CLI to be ready. I think it's due to the wrong timezones because the time is off my three hours. How do I fix the issue with the timezones syncing incorrectly?

Restoring a backup and the moment I clicked go, it just returned to the onboarding screen. I waited a moment to see if anything would happen then tried refreshing the page. No server running and no ports open on the pi. I don't know if it's restoring and I should just wait it out, or if it's failed and I should try again from scratch :/

humble scaffoldBOT
humble mirage
#

That may help narrow down the problem

#

The Profiler integration provides a profile which is a set of statistics that identifies how much time each part of Home Assistant is taking

#

Basically, it'll help you see where all that CPU time is going

Greetings - Anyone got a sec to help me troubleshoot - HA running on a Oracle VM, has been operating fine for over a year now keeping things up-to-date. Suddenly this week I can't connect (browsers, phone apps time out trying to get to local:4357) but the ha console seems to be responding and running fine. Tried rebooting, restarting, etc. Only thing that seems off is that CORE is reporting version 2022.11.2, but when I try to console update to 2022.11.4 it doesn't "take". (i.e. core update comes back with 'Proocessing... Done. Command completed successfully' but the version doesn't actually update).

#

Are you trying to use wifi, or ethernet?

#

Did your router give your rpi an IP address? Can you ping it?

maiden bone
copper steppe
#

your rpi needs to ask your router (via DHCP) for an IP address, which it uses to talk to the internet. Likely your router is also your DHCP server. Can you look in the router config, and see if it assigned an IP address to the rpi as it booted?

#

Do you have any traffic policies/blocking/firewalls etc on your router? Are you doing anything like parental-controls, add-blocking, etc?

maiden bone
#

nvm I think I found it

copper steppe
#

Haven't you ever logged into your router web interface?

copper steppe
#

Do you have a separate device for connecting to the internet (a modem, dsl router, fibre box, or whatever); or is it all in the netgear router?

copper steppe
#

Then the DHCP server could be either on the router, or on the modem, depending on how you set it up.

maiden bone
copper steppe
#

In fact, probably on both, double-NAT hahaha

#

The only one that matters for now is the LAN side. WHich is probably on your router.

maiden bone
copper steppe
#

At the point it's failing, it's not really even up to being HA, it's just trying to be a linux box, and download some stuff.

maiden bone
copper steppe
#

Are there more logs above what you pasted in pastie?

maiden bone
#

its just pastie crashes if I post all of the logs

copper steppe
#

use a better pastebin 🙂

#

The ethernet is probably not setup properly. You need the logs around that part.

#

I assume you don't have another docker/linux box you can check your LAN is working properly?
docker pull ghcr.io/home-assistant/raspberrypi3-64-homeassistant:2022.11.4

#

Feel free to jump in here anytime @manic bane

maiden bone
manic bane
#

And what are they

manic bane
#

What is it specifically?

maiden bone
manic bane
#

Then go to 192.168.1.1 and it should be your router configuration page

#

And will show you whether the pi has an IP

maiden bone
#

It says home assistant and then that IP

copper steppe
#

Looks like it got an IP address OK.

maiden bone
copper steppe
#

I think getting the full logs would be useful. Otherwise, maybe suggest trying HAOS in a virtual machine on your workstation - may be easier to diagnose?

maiden bone
#

I tried it about 3 - 5 days ago

copper steppe
#

Why? What failed?

#

It may be the same root cause.

maiden bone
#

Same thing

copper steppe
#

So, sounds like problem is 100% your LAN/network.

maiden bone
#

Yeah.

copper steppe
#

Can you spin up a machine in virtualbox or whatever, and try pulling docker images? See if you can get the docker logs.

#

Your HAOS is trying to do the command I pasted previously
docker pull ghcr.io/home-assistant/raspberrypi3-64-homeassistant:2022.11.4

#

Which worked for me here, btw.

maiden bone
#

like see if that comes up in logs?

copper steppe
#

I/we have no idea why your machine is not pulling that image. Need the full logs - maybe they have something. And/or reproduce the problem in a more debuggable way (with a generic linux VM). It's a little harder to diagnose haos during setup.

maiden bone

oh boy guys, i think i've got a pickle here... i noticed a few days ago that my addons (and supervisor) weren't being able to take updates, but didn't get to it until today. i rebooted my host (ova inside proxmox), and core never started 🤔

the system had booted, but was throwing some errors from supervisor... so i tried supervisor repair, thinking that may help. it apparently pruned my addon images, so now none of my addons can start 🤬 namely, this is an issue because MariaDB can't start, and my core can't "start" because of that.

i then tried store addons install core_mariadb... and nothing seems to have changed.

i think my supervisor is broken, what do i do?

Looks like it had a problem updating supervisor right at the top. Which image are you using to boot haos installer?

copper steppe
#

which file did you use to write the USB key that you're installing HAOS from?

copper steppe
#

Problem seems likely to be a DNS/DHCP issue, or routing. Do you have a bunch of other devices on your network that work fine?

maiden bone
copper steppe
#

Ummm, are you connected to a switch that doesn't support 100mbit port? (that's all rpi can do)

#

Do you have the rpi set to static IP, or some dns override, or something like that?

#

Did the rpi work before? (using pi os)

#

How old is your pi? I assume it's still 64-bit, so it's not a 32/64 issue....

#

I’m assuming you are having some kind of issue where the install is not finishing

#

Change your routers dns to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 for the clients

#

You are probably having issues pulling from docker hub etc

copper steppe
#

yeah, he was getting problems self-updating supervisor, and a dns/resolver... yes that

raw hedge
#

Or set up a static ip and set up your dns that way with raspberry pi os

copper steppe
#

if you're not doing LAN DNS resolution, there's really no harm in letting devices talk directly to public resolvers.

#

it's not so much load that you'd care about cachign

raw hedge
#

Set it to public for now to troubleshoot this issue

#

Not like it uses a public resolver anyways unless you are one of those people

copper steppe
#

que?

#

(FYI @maiden bone 1.1.1.1 is cloudflare, and 8.8.8.8 is google)

Someone has any advice on how to do something about the extremely slow boot time of the Haos on Rpi4 64bit? It takes over 5 minutes for me... It is becoming a bit unnerving as i'm editing the configuration and rebooting quite often...

humble mirage
#

Why on earth are you rebooting?

#

Reboots are only required when you upgrade the OS

#

For everything else, you just have to restart HA, not the whole computer

I don't use HAOS, but I'm guessing the Restart option under System is what you're after

@humble mirage since you are being so kind, may i ask you an advice on how to find the correct documentation if i want to create a custom application in which i'd like to make HA connect to my remote backend, possibly with a websocket or using REST apis. In order to have the full control of each device in my custom application

humble scaffoldBOT
#

@torpid niche Generally, don't tag people to ask for help - it comes across as bad manners, you’re demanding somebody answers you. It’s different if you’re thanking somebody, obviously. If you do tag somebody keep it polite and respectful. Remember that everybody is a volunteer, and nobody has to help you, and people may block you.

Similarly, please don’t DM (direct message) people asking for help. It also comes across as demanding, and means that others can’t learn from what you do.

Finally, please keep tagging people in replies to a minimum. That too can become annoying very quickly and should be used only when it's necessary (such as if it's been a long time, or there's multiple conversations going on). When using Discord's new Reply feature it defaults to pinging the person you reply to, click @ ON to @ OFF to stop this - on the right side of the compose bar.

placid sage
#

Sorry for the tag...

humble mirage
#

Every damn time you respond, you either tag or use a Reply with the notification on

#

Stop, or I stop trying to help you

placid sage
#

ok, sorry, i got it

humble mirage
#

Start there

#

You build an integration, and that needs a Python library that handles the communication

#

The other option is to have your custom application use MQTT and then it'll "just work"

Yes

#

You can't restructure HAOS

#

Also, Docker adds no meaningful overhead to the startup

#

Not rebooting will solve the problem in the easiest way, and if you're happy to give up add-ons then switching to Debian + Docker (for HA Container) should be a litttle faster

#

Oh, and moving off of SD cards to an SSD will help more

placid sage
#

Thank you

humble mirage
#

Totally allowed, just ... maybe not a good idea given the questions you've been asking

manic bane
#

I asked because commerical installations of HA are rare and usually result in issues when spoken of on here 😂

humble mirage
#

HA isn't some polished unchanging platform... every month there's a new release

#

You're rebooting it when it doesn't need rebooted

#

You're complaining that a reboot takes too long, when running on sub-par hardware, and likely on an SD card

#

Oh, and you want to refactor a whole platform

manic bane
#

(with the rebooting part. Remember it's all running on docker. Can restart the container without the host needing it, and usually achieves the same goal)

humble mirage
#

Even without Docker, restarting just the one thing you changed is all that's necessary

#

Rebooting the whole host is a sign that you're out of your depth, technically speaking

manic bane
humble mirage
#

Eh, restarting HA is fine... rebooting the whole host however

#

I last rebooted my HA host when I upgraded the OS

#

I restart HA the other day

manic bane
#

I rebooted the host when I did maintence on the server. Next time will be migrating hosts to a 1u server

Time before this restart I may have knocked the plug and shut it down lul

Tinkerer,
1 - i rebooted the device literally a few times in the first hour of usage of mine, just before learning that reloading or reconfiguring my integration would do the job, now i have understood perfectly why it is not necessary, but if you want you can continue stressing it to me.
2 - I have complained that the boot took ''too long'' being used to simpler applications in some products in which i reached the software pack to be decrypted and run in a time below the minute, and i was still thinking that rebooting was useful in the configuration stage (now i know that is not necessary, i repeat).
3 - i do not want in any way to restructure a whole platform, i saw perfectly the docs related to the one you linked to me https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/operating-system, i understood perfectly that is not convenient
Rebooting an host when is not really necessary in the first stage of my learning of a new platform is a sign that i'm out of my depths? Ok, thank you again

humble mirage
#

If you want faster reboots, stop using SD cards, and stop using Pis

#

Do however consider how you're going to remotely support this

placid sage
humble mirage
#

If you're selling this, support is a bigger consideration than for most here, and is more complicated than you think

placid sage
#

The MQTT way seems the more convenient, however, i was thinking on some custom websocket integration in order to reach a more ready and clean remote control. And i'm all alone in this

#

any advice?

humble mirage
#

MQTT decouples things and allows you to have things across networks with ease

#

Whether you do MQTT or custom API makes no difference to "clean remote control"

#

That's ... very much the benefit of HA, it abstracts away all of that - a sensor is a sensor no matter what the underlying communication method and hardware is

placid sage
#

Ok, get rid of the custom API idea, so far i guess that the MQTT integration, pointing to a remote broker in common with the custom backend would be the more convenient approach.
Could i be right? The point is to reach the remote control of at least 50 (to 200) custom ZHA ''smart plug'' ZigBee devices, ensuring their metering and on/off cluster attributes to be read and wrote.

humble mirage
#

For Zigbee just use Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA

#

Develop the required converter (Z2M) or quirk (ZHA) and then it'll work with any install of Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA

placid sage
#

Ok, i have experienced Z2M, (without HA, just it in a container), and i found the external converter part a bit messy, now i'm going to try to create the ZHA needed quirk

humble mirage
#

ZHA's not going to be any less messy 😉

placid sage
#

Nice to know

#

But now i know where to go cry when my 16 endpoints devices will be not recognized properly

#

for now thank you for the useful hints

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.

humble mirage
#

Technically you can run Supervised, but ... just don't, trust me on this one

thick prairie
#

Hahah

#

Okay

humble mirage
#

They're not magic anyway, if you run Container you have everything you need

thick prairie
#

So - my RaspberryPi OS installation, I just need to completely wipe that, start all over again, yeah? Can I use the Raspberry Pi for other stuff still? I still want to be able to access files on my SSD and stuff. Still possible with HAOS?

#

Oh wait. Sorry - I can still have HAOS running as a container?

humble mirage
#

No

#

The clue is in the name Home Assistant OS

#

And no, the things you do with the Pi today you won't be able to do with HAOS, unless there's an add-on for it, and that SSD is largely right out for general use

thick prairie
#

Frustrating.

#

Okay thanks.

humble mirage
#

Add-ons aren't magic, not having them isn't going to mean you miss anything

thick prairie
#

Oh okay. Sorry. There's so much documentation, it's hard to make sure you're looking at the right places. After I read the zigbee2mqtt Docker installation and got that done, the next section down is "Home Assistant addon". Not knowing anything else, I had assumed that was what I needed. I'll keep digging.

humble mirage
#

#zigbee-archived can help if you're stuck, but you do realise that's a long list of ways of installing Z2M?

#

The one after that is for OpenHAB...

I hope you're not going to install OH next zany

Hi all. After a couple of days of trying I am looking for some help if possible. I am a huge fan of HA and have been running it for 2 years with 30+ devices.
I was keeping with updates until 2022.6.6. I tried to upgrade to 2022.11.4 and it throws errors with building dependencies with orjson. I am on a RPI with Home Assistant Core. I tried searching and stuff like installing Rust. Also tried from a clean Raspbian image running 5.15. Same issues. After installing rust, it now hangs for hours (6+) building dependencies and I see rustc running. I can install orjson 3.8.2 with pip successfully in the venv. HA is trying to build 3.8.1. I believe it is hanging on building maturin. Can I do anything to build/install/configure prior to the HA install so it finishes.

humble mirage
#

Are you running Python 3.10.x?

spare rock
#

Well, I have 3.10.x installed, but the venv is in 3.9. Python3 runs 3.9.

#

I don't have 3.10 on the last version of troubleshooting.

humble mirage
#

You want the venv to be on 3.10 soon

spare rock
#

yes, it installed them in 3.9

humble mirage
#

Any reason to not use Docker?

#

(I say this as somebody running Core too)

spare rock
#

lol, no. Just never went down that road.

humble mirage
#

Unless you need to run stuff directly from HA on the host it's the simplest approach

#

(even then, SSH works)

#

I've got one program that I call from a command line sensor that's be ... annoying to get working with Docker, that's the only reason I'm still on Core

spare rock
#

I do have a bunch of custom scripts that I can look to eliminate if it will solve my problem. Just not sure what happened between 2022.6 and 2022.11 that would cause this. All other upgrades have been smooth. I may have to try a docker install.

humble mirage
#

I built a fresh venv with 3.10 the other day (using the awesome pyenv) on Debian 11, it ran 2022.11 fine shrug

spare rock
#

I successfully installed 3.10 on a clean image. When i installed the dependencies it installed them to 3.9. 3.10 was a manual build. Is there a way to install the core dependencies to 3.10?

humble mirage
#

When i installed the dependencies it installed them to 3.9
Then you didn't rebuild the venv with 3.10

#

Or, worse, you didn't use venvs at all

#

(which would be very unsupported, and the cause of many problems)

spare rock
#

I did use venv, but 3.9 because of the dependency install. 3.10 was looking for python3-venv on 3.10. so I created a new 3.9 venv and tried a clean install.

#

I was trying this all on an existing 5.10 kernel with python 3.9 and HA 2022.6.6 and a clean install of 5.15 kernel with 3.9 & 3.10 to upgrade python. I was struggling with getting the dependencies installed on 3.10.

humble mirage
#

The kernel is largely irrelevant

#

I used https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv to create a fresh 3.10.8 venv a couple of weeks ago, on Debian 11, and then installed HA 2022.11.2 without issue - let me upgrade it to 2022.11.4

spare rock
#

agreed. so any help with the dependencies on 3.10?

humble mirage
#

What version of Debian/Raspbian are you on?

spare rock
#

ok. thank you. I will try that

#

I have one with 10 buster and one with 11 bullseye. Both are producing the same results with python 3.9. Also same results with upgrade and fresh install. I am going to try the 3.10 info you posted

humble mirage
#

Yup, upgraded to 2022.11.4 without issues on 3.10.8 shrug

#

It is just a dummy install, nothing's configured, so it may be that there's something lurking ... but I doubt it

spare rock
#

well, as you said, I need to go to 3.10 anyway, so I should get my 3.10 venv working anyway since it will be needed. I will try the info above.

#

Thanks again for your help. I am going to start building a new 3.10 today. Have a great rest of your week.

I added a second network interface to my home assistant vm, I have one for each of the vlans that I need it to be able to access from home assistant; one with client/media devices and the other with iot stuff. What are things I can run into? And how do I set the default interface? It seems to pick it automatically now.

I'm trying to migrate HA from my RPi3 running docker to a Lenovo ThinkCentre running proxmox. When I try and restore the backup, the spinner spins, it consumes all the CPU and RAM for a bit, then the CPU stops, but still nothing happens. Any ideas what I can do to resolve?

fair nebula
#

hi guys quick question what type of file is the HA Supervisor you add to a VM ?

#

is it a iso or script used to install

humble mirage
#

Neither, it's part of Home Assistant OS

#

You don't "add" it to a VM

fair nebula
#

so how have i got it in a VM

humble mirage
#

Because you used HAOS

fair nebula
#

hassos_ova-5.11.qcow2

#

ok cheers

i could not remeber

humble mirage
#

Next time you forget... eh, I'd tell you where you can look to find out, but would you remember? 😛

fair nebula
#

i asked badly i am trying to find out is it a kind of file type it is howit is made up like is it a Linux Distro

i try this

I am so incredibly lost. All I want to do is connect my Ikea Tradfri to my Xiaomi home and humidity sensor.

floral gull
#

i download the latest version os-agent 1.4.1

#

when i try to install it i get the message "system has not been bootet with systemd as init system

low notch
humble mirage
#

You're also ignoring the ADR

#

I am so incredibly lost All I want to do

humble mirage
#

Either replace the whole OS with HAOS, or use the Container (native Docker) install that has no add-ons

floral gull
low notch
#

many best ways, run haos in a vm or use a dedicated box for it. or learn some docker and run all of it with your custom configuration

#

you need a vm if you want to run haos on your current machine

floral gull
#

the machine is only hardware, MX linux can be removed

#

i only want HAOS in the machine

humble mirage
#

Then you want to flash HAOS

floral gull
#

this i tried, but i only run it from usb, i want to run it on my Harddrive

low notch
#

you need to select your harddisk then in balena etcher

floral gull
#

ok so i will try

low notch
#

and be careful not to overwrite your desktops harddisk while at it

floral gull
#

so run the system with a live stick an overwrite the harddrive with balena atcher an HAOS image?

cinder marsh
#

@floral gull MX Linux ships with systemd present but sysVinit is still the default init system by default. Thanks to the systemd-shim system, users can choose to boot installed systems whichever way they choose.

#

sorry, looks like I was replying to an old message

floral gull
#

ok start live system, mint 21, Balena etcher started but now flash failed ebusy resource busy or locked open /dev/sda

humble mirage
#

Run it with sudo

#

It needs to run as root so it can access the device

floral gull
#

now it is flashing, i removed partion with gparted

#

running HA without flash drive, thanks for help

HI everyone, I'm trying to build my own HaOS image, I've already built a core docker image (with customized frontend to make it "dumber"). I'm trying to figure out at which stage the HaOS build process pulls the core image, so I can replace it with my own. Could you give me a hint?

humble mirage
#

Why?

#

The HAOS build doesn't pull the HA container though, that's going to be handled by the Supervisor

whole flare
humble mirage
#

You could just use an alternative UI

#

Heck, build an add-on that does that, give it a limited access user account and do it all over the API

whole flare
#

Alright, thank you for the suggestions, these seem to be better ways to proceed 🙂

humble mirage
#

It'll be a lot easier than entirely managing your own fork of HA, and HAOS, and the Supervisor, and ...

#

Of course, the other option would be to get involved in the development of the frontend, to support the features you want...

GM all again. Tinkerer, thank you for all of the help yesterday. I am at it again and decided to go back to a clean/clean/clean install. Clean Raspbian, Clean Python 3.10.8 and clean HA install. HA install still fails building dependencies for orjson 3.8.1. I will post some snippets of the log.

It might be a pip version problem, based off of

            error: failed to get `anyhow` as a dependency of package `maturin v0.13.7 (/tmp/pip-install-oqndlvjc/maturin_bac6337ce6d24978bf8657b2cff28328)`
#

Try updating pip to meet HA's requirements

spare rock
#

Yep, I checked that. Requirements say pip>=21.0,<22.4

#

I am at pip 22.2.2

humble mirage
#

I'd track down that error, since it's the real problem here

spare rock
#

Thanks. I am off to more googling.

#

if I am in the 3.10 venv, can I manually pip install orjson 3.8.1 to troubleshoot instead of going through the entire HA install?

humble mirage
#

Sure

spare rock
#

ok, because I am assuming I can go through the HA core requirements list and manually pip install each one to verify before running the HA install.

humble mirage
#

At the versions listed, yes

spare rock
#

Looks like I found one reference directly to the issue I am having. I am running on a RPI2 (never needed something more until maybe now). The post says that orjson "depends on maturin which does not have wheels for that platform." Any workarounds?

humble mirage
#

Pi 2 ... ablobgrimace

spare rock
#

I know. It just always worked for the past 2 years so there was no need to upgrade.

humble mirage
#

Docker should work there, at least support for the Pi2 hasn't been dropped for the Docker images ... yet

spare rock
#

That may be my interim path. If I need to take the plunge for new HW, what is the popular upgrade path - Rpi 4, NUC, something else?

humble mirage
#

The Pi range are great toys, and a Pi4 on an SSD isn't terrible. If you can upgrade to almost any PC hardware from the last decade you'll not regret it

#

I run HA, and a bunch of other things, on a 9 year old i5 laptop that draws only a little more power than a Pi4, and is way faster

spare rock
#

oh, I have an i3 laptop, 4GB with an SSD that is not being used...

humble mirage
#

A Pi4 has a CPUmark of about 900, if your i3 is that or higher you're on a winner

spare rock
#

I have nothing directly connect to the RPI. everything is over IP, so I am going to stop fighting the RPI2 and try the laptop install/upgrade. I can probably stick with HA core on something like ubuntu, right?

humble mirage
#

Sure

#

IMO Debian is a slightly better choice for servers, but Ubuntu works

spare rock
#

I like both. Debian it is. I read the rest of the post and it said that the RPI2/Zero maturin build went 15+ hours and then still failed for a couple people, probably because of the 32bit platform. Not worth it or an HA issue. I need to move on to better HW platform. Thank you for all of your help.

spare rock
#

I am up with Debian and completing the core requirements and python install now. The speed is insane compared to the RPI2. What was I doing? I can probably count the many hours I lost with the old hardware. 😢

Hello, I just installed home assistant OS for the first time on a PI 4B (it's still preparing). I have a question though: is that Pi only used as a server for HA or can I use it both as a server and the UI (since I have a screen connected to that pi)

low notch
#

haos does not come with a gui, you only get a cli. ha is made for webui / text editor access

fossil harness
#

So basically the Pi 4 is only a server?

low notch
#

yes

fossil harness
#

Then how would I get a GUI since a lot of people have that. Would I use my phone or tablet?

humble mirage
#

Yes

#

It's a web UI after all

fossil harness
#

I see. I thought I could just connect my Pi 4 to a touch screen, install HA and set up a UI all on that one device

humble mirage
#

Only if you went with something like Ubuntu desktop and HA Container (no add-ons)

@placid sage I migrated (haos) rpi -> proxmox just using the backup/restore. Does unraid support VMs not just containers?

#

Otherwise your addons will break.

storm sluice

ups

#

settings-> about shows which version you are running

#

if it manages itself its probably homeassistant os. so like @copper steppe suggested i would just install homeassistant os as a vm in unraid, then make a backup on the pi installation and restore it in the unraid vm.

crude inlet
#

@placid sage

  • you can restore your HA config to the unraid HA container config, losing any add-ons (but you could use unraid's own app store to replace those)
    or
  • you can restore the backup from your current system to a vm of HA OS in unraid, which would include whatever add-ons you have

hi guys

#

looking at a suppervised install of HA

#

i would go HAoS

#

BUT

#

my spare "server" isn't UEFI

#

HP dl320e G8 V2

#

SO im stuck going the linux route

#

now my question is...

#

do i go with Buster or Focal Fossa ?

brisk willow
#

Debian 11 is the only supported OS for Supervised

#

However, I would recommend considering HA Container instead of Supervised

glass ruin
#

im trying to wrap my head around this..

#

but all the time it confuses the crap out of me

brisk willow
#

If you do decide to go the Supervised route, just make sure to follow the requirements exactly

glass ruin
#

been reading through the glossary

brisk willow
#

What do you need help understanding?

glass ruin
#

the installation method chart looks confusing as hell to me

brisk willow
#

What is confusing you

glass ruin
#

my interest in supervised it the fact its self maintaining

#

i dont want to spent time trying to constantly thinker and manually do software updates

brisk willow
#

Well, not really

#

HA OS is, not Supervised

crude inlet
#

Supervised is a copy of HA OS where you manage it

#

it's for big fans

#

don't do it

vestal lake
#

Not super clear what kind of install I have (I used the tutorial on The Hook Up to create a Virtualbox install on Windows... I do have a supervisor and... its all in a docker container.... I guess? When I go to Settings-> About all it tells me is that I have "Home Assistant 2022.11.4, Frontend 2022 1108.0 - latest") . Anyhow days ago after nearly a year of running fine, the UI / app stops loading even using the IP address on the local machine. I thought my problem was that the web UI just started timing out one day, but after fiddling with it, it seems like HA loads up for about 10-15 secons before something inside of it runs away and hangs the system. I can still use the SSH client and HA console to issue commands - but none of the logs seem to tell me what might be causing the hang. I can run "ha host restart" and have it reload to give me another 10-15 seconds to "do stuff in the UI" but I don't know what to test :/ help

glass ruin
#

plus need the add-ons as well

brisk willow
#

Add-ons are just pieces of software you can install standalone

glass ruin
#

so that can be added to the install after the fact ??

brisk willow
#

Not in HA, but on the same host

glass ruin
#

ohhh

#

im trying to keep it as simple as possible

#

im the only one that will be interacting with the programing / setting up

#

and my "learning curve" has been flattened a while back lol

#

so the simpler the better

#

lol

brisk willow
#

Supervised is going to require more maintenance in the long run compared to HA Container

glass ruin
#

but that also requires 2 more add-on's to achieve what i need

brisk willow
#

What?

glass ruin
#

i may not be getting this right

#

if i do go with the container route

#

im missing add-on store

#

that has to be added separately and available externally ?

#

or is the add-on store available inside HA

brisk willow
#

No

#

You would just need to install whatever other software you want just like you install HA

glass ruin
#

and in this case i can run any verison of debian ?

brisk willow
#

Whatever Linux flavor you want, really. Debian is a good choice though

glass ruin
#

I been messing with 20.04 server and starting to get a hang of it

#

one last question

#

Docker or Docker Compose ?

brisk willow
#

docker-compose is a tool for docker

#

And it's way easier than using docker run as you run more containers

glass ruin
#

well... only looking to run HA, Frigate and Observium on this server

brisk willow
#

Still easier to maintain IMO

glass ruin
#

its only an E3-1220 V3 with 16GB of RAM and 4Tb of storage

#

it does have a Intel X520DA dual port SFP+ network card

#

@brisk willow are you going to be around for a bit ?

brisk willow
#

Probably

glass ruin
#

may need a hand in understanding the docker compose script:

#

version: '3' services: homeassistant: container_name: homeassistant image: "ghcr.io/home-assistant/home-assistant:stable" volumes: - /PATH_TO_YOUR_CONFIG:/config - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro restart: unless-stopped privileged: true network_mode: host

#

so /PATH_TO_YOUR_CONFIG:/config is the directory where your going to have HA installed ?

brisk willow
#

/PATH_TO_YOUR_CONFIG is where you want to store your HA configuration on the host

glass ruin
#

so probably best for that is /opt/config

brisk willow
#

Wherever you want, really

glass ruin
#

or just give it its own directory ?

#

/ha/config

brisk willow
#

Probably overkill, but again, it's up to you

#

The path on the host also doesn't need to end in config

#

I tend to keep my container configs in directories in /etc, but I've seen people put configs for docker containers in directories in /docker

#

It's ultimately up to you

vestal lake
# vestal lake Not super clear what kind of install I have (I used the tutorial on The Hook Up ...

Extract the config from the backup and move it to wherever your HA config is at

I'm running the home-assistant/core. When I go to setup the HA extension in vscode it says it cannot connect to my server. In all the examples I see they use a htttps connect, but the docker is exposing http. Is this why it is not connecting? I created the long-lived access token and enable that.

HACS i don't think have a container

manic bane
#

HACS isn't an add on

#

So of course it doesn't

#

HACS can be installed on any installation type

open urchin
#

duckdns is a container too?

red lichen
manic bane
#

Use google

#

Its the top result

high token
#

what's your end goal here?

open urchin
#

trying to figure out if i should demolish the frankensteined HA supervised installation i pierced together and go a different route

manic bane
#

Yes

#

Supervised is never a good installation method. HAOS if you want a supervisor

#

Or docker container if you want to use the host for more than HA

high token
#

That's a no brainer yes

open urchin
#

i mean you have to configure the integration of those plugins too with HA no?

manic bane
#

If you really want a supervisor then just run HAOS

open urchin
#

like how does a non-plugin mosquitto even send mqtt messages to HA?

manic bane
#

Since with supervised you've already dedicated the machine to HA

manic bane
open urchin
#

yes, but if you need to install a plugin it's because it doesn't natively handle MQTT messages?

manic bane
#

All that happens is it communicates over a port. So instead of whatever supervised is, it's just [IP or domain name]:[port]

manic bane
manic bane
#

An integration is not a add on. Integration is your mqtt, etc

high token
#

Put too simply HA uses integrations to talk to services/devices. Nothing is native (again too simply put)

manic bane
#

Those are all integrations in my screenshot

high token
#

Addons are "programs" that run in parallel to your HA like programs in a computer. They can run anywhere, whether that is addons alongside HAOS /Supervised or in other hardware entirely

manic bane
#

If you're going to struggle without a supervisor then given you should've already dedicated the install to your supervised install it is easy to swap to HAOS

#

I went container because I want to run other things than just HA, plus I want to learn docker better

open urchin
#

i don't have that option currently, it's a cloud VM

#

and sadly it doesn't even have debian 11 as an option that i recall off

manic bane
#

Then supervised isn't supported there

high token
#

That is potentially even worse than a Supervised installation

manic bane
#

Also why on earth are you running HA on a cloud VM. The major point is local control

#

May as well just use google home or whatever then

open urchin
#

scripting? personalization? unified interface?

#

i have node red that runs things in background

manic bane
#

Please tell me you actually securely tunnel mqtt to your home network though. And not just expose it to the internet

manic bane
open urchin
#

there's a VPN from my router to that VM

manic bane
#

At least there's that

high token
#

don't you also need to pay for that VM?

manic bane
open urchin
#

nope, 4 cores 24GB all free to you

#

yep oracle free tier

manic bane
#

In which case I hope you make regular backups to your home network in case they pull it

#

Or to google drive

#

Or whatever

open urchin
#

tbh i'm considering just buying a server and call it off but the damn power here is pricey as hell

manic bane
#

Just don't trust that you'll always be able to use something hosted on someone else's network

open urchin
#

oh trust me i hate the cloud

manic bane
open urchin
#

the point is that i'd like to run other things besides HA if i call it

manic bane
#

Then docker install is a great one. Otherwise VMs

open urchin
#

put an actual firewall instead of the shitty router, i work in IT so i use VMs a lot too

high token
#

You can easily get good prices for 2nd hand SFF PCs these days that are more than enough to run multiple things on

#

on top of having ability to easily upgrade parts in the future

manic bane
#

Dell optiplex's are great for that

#

Well not that

#

They have proprietary shit in them

#

But are a great starting point

high token
#

I've ended up with an HP Elitedesk with Proxmox

#

Day and night compared to HA on an Rpi plus can run whatever you want in parallel

manic bane
#

I'm finally upgrading to a 1u server. Will be fun to have dual xeons and 64gb ram to begin with

high token
open urchin
#

because for what i would like to run low power isn't really an option

#

if I pull the trigger many things will need to run

red lichen
#

I'm on the other side, running in docker in unRAID on a server I built from scratch. Definitely not on the efficient side though with a Ryzen 5700 and Nvidia 3050

manic bane
open urchin
#

so i very much doubt so

manic bane
#

What are you even running

spice swift
open urchin
#

test environment, depending on the day but many things, domain controllers, database, PBX and so on

manic bane
#

That could stay in the cloud if it's a test

red lichen
open urchin
#

no that's not a cloud per se, more like "this is what we got use it and no we can't upgrade it"

spice swift
#

DCs, databases and PBXs are super-low powered things when they arnt done at scale.
The Xeon setup is vastly overkill for a lab setup....but i do understand the fun on having that kind of hardware to play with. :p

manic bane
#

Also just did the maths. If my new server hovers around 200w idle it'll only be like $30 a month. Not bad

open urchin
#

the idea is if i pull the trigger, i want to have those on my hardware at my own accord and not be capacity constrained

#

i just paid around uuh... 400 dollars? of power bill and i don't have anything strange besides my computer and a laptop

spice swift
#

400 on your power bill? Not in the UK are you? :-p

high token
#

or Greece lol

open urchin
#

no, italy

manic bane
#

What's your per kwh rate

open urchin
#

no nuclear power and dependant on russian gas for power production

red lichen
open urchin
#

god i don't remember the price per kwh

spice swift
#

Exponentially higher than the US.
A friend of mine in the UK, doesnt even do anything 'techy', just 'normal' house stuff, got a 300 quid bill 3 months in a row for his electric.

#

insane

manic bane
#

Oh shit monthly

#

That's insane

open urchin
#

oh it's 0.0227 i think, plus taxes and the likes

manic bane
manic bane
#

Wait

#

Yes it is

open urchin
#

except the 8.11 euros of taxes on top of it for what i see

manic bane
#

8 per kwh?

high token
#

Here it changes per month.. 0.48 , 0.78, 0.59 last 3 months

manic bane
#

Also why on earth isn't it included in the rate

high token
open urchin
#

it isn't super clear it says "taxes on kwh 357 at 0.022700 €/kw"

manic bane
open urchin
#

maybe that's just the tax wait

manic bane
open urchin
#

should be around 0.501 according to the internet

#

the bill doesn't say

manic bane

Ouch

Hello, im fighting with HA installation on windows, using virtualbox. Seems that internet connection not working, have you any tips ? Tried a lot of things from google

#

It stuck on preparing

storm sluice
#

how long did you wait?

sand meadow
#

More than hour

#

I see in logs that connection is blocked and installation just restarting

storm sluice
#

how is the networking configured?

woeful wave
#

did you have other client on your VB?

sand meadow
#

Its auto connection

storm sluice
#

yeah but i the vm. its a bridge to a ethernet nic?

sand meadow
#

yep

#

cant post a screenshot, but its set to bridged and wifi is chosen

storm sluice
#

that mostlikely the problem

#

bridge to a ethernet nic

#

not wifi

sand meadow
#

grr, i dont have a lan port in my laptop

#

for sure there is no option to connect via wifi?

woeful wave
#

Here is my config (ubuntu host here:

#

ha. No upload image allowed? 🙂

storm sluice
#

you can setup a nat network in virtualbox and use that instead. but that will have a whole lotof other problems involving discovery of things as then homeassistant is not in the same network so to speak.

sand meadow
#

ok, thanks, i will get lan adapter tommorow

#

I have clicked the wrong button (upload file) for my new zigbee hub. When i click configure, it allways show me the upload controll. Did someone know how can i undo this and restart the configuration from start? Thx!

I had a random crash today where I could no longer access my HA VM. The Observer URL worked but the port for the web interface would not start. SO I decided to restore a backup to a new instance but for some reason I am getting safe mode with this error.
"ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.bootstrap] Failed to parse configuration.yaml: in "/config/configuration.yaml", line 75, column 8: Unable to read file /config/scenes.yaml.. Activating safe mode"

I'm sure I could fix this but File Manager wont start and neither will samba share. Is there any other way of accessing the configuration file to cix the yaml?

#

i have the same problem as malySzu i tried wifi and ethernet but installation never ends up it just keeps say downloading docker image

#

if I use an older configuration it seems to be working but no update possible and it says unhealthy

for me changing device + using eth cable fixed everything

hey guys

#

followed the guide on the site for linux with docker compose

i created a compose.yml file as per instructions

copied the contents from the site into the file using copy and paste commands so nothing gets left out

#

then attempted to get it up and running with the docker compose up -d

#

then i get :

#

sudo docker compose up -d unknown shorthand flag: 'd' in -d

#

so i go check the verison...
docker compose version Docker Compose version v2.5.0

with the hyphen

thats the one !!!

#

Thanks @raw briar !!

not tie to fire this up and start messing with it

hey guys

how can i ssh into my container ?

brisk willow
#

How did you install HA?

glass ruin
#

Docker Compose

#

nice to see you again @brisk willow

#

🙂

brisk willow
#

You would just SSH to the host then

glass ruin
#

im already ssh'd into it

brisk willow
#

What are you trying to accomplish?

#

If you actually want to drop into a shell in the container, you can do docker exec -ti home-assistant /bin/bash (replace home-assistant with the container name if it's not that) but I suspect that's not what you need

crude inlet
glass ruin
#

want to add the fridge to HA

brisk willow
#

You just need to add the appropriate lines to configuration.yaml like those docs say

glass ruin
#

yes

#

but i dont have the add-ons to add the file editor

#

and have to do it manually

brisk willow
#

Install a text editor of your choice then

crude inlet
#

There are many file editors

glass ruin
#

suggestions ?

brisk willow
#

Again, add-ons are just pieces of software you can install standalone

#

I use code-server

glass ruin
#

like in HA ?

brisk willow
#

For more than just my HA config though

glass ruin
#

man

#

this is becoming a hassle

glass ruin
#

this is frustrating the crap out of me

#

i do not understand this

#

what masochist came up with the idea of tiered installs ???

manic bane
#

Otherwise edit the files as you would normally on a Linux install (eg how you did the compose file)

#

You shouldn't need to ever enter the container to edit files

Good Morning friends.
Yesterday i have installed nginx proxy seems all ok,, until now after (12hours later) cameback and cant access to HA neither by ssh/putty 😐
Just get "Congratulations!

try access WinSCP get this warning "Try turning Off 'Optimize connections buffer size".
completly lose access to my HA remotely 😐

Need find my issue and access physically. should i force restart RPI before all?

humble mirage

Can you still connect directly to HA (http://1921.68.1.191:8123/)?

Well... it's Docker

If you follow the docs then you'll be fine, unless Ubnt screws you over

junior vortex
#

yeah, i guess it's that part i'm wondering about 🙂

#

but with schoutsen currently employed at ubnt, i find it strange that nothing like this has emerged officially from them yet

#

the controllers from ubnt has applications for network, talk (voip), protect (cameras), access (door control).. so why home assistant hasn't been launched as a "smart house" application

grand pivot
#

He hasn't worked for them for many years

#

'Several' perhaps. I thinking 2019

junior vortex
#

so he was just employed for a short time?

#

got fired? spent too much time on his "hobby project"? 🙂

grand pivot
#

My guess is a combination of deciding not to continue to fund HA and Paulus' desire to start Nabu Casa anyway

manic bane

Also all of those things are proprietary unifi things, HA is the opposite to that and doesn't seem along their path

I don't know if the best channel to ask, if wrong, please tell so. I moved my mysql database from server X to Y (first shut down hass). Exported the database. Restart hass, change the connection string in recorder, restart again.

So the connection works I would say, just no more new entries after that initial dump at startup.

My HA runs on a Intel-NIC server. The server is connected to my home network with a fixed ip adres. I have configured a separate IOT network. Both networks have a separate Vlan-id. In the present situation my router only sends untagged packets to my HA server.
Is it possible to connect to wifi devices in my IOT network?
I could configure my router to send vlan tagged packets to the HA server…
But i’m not sure if my HA server is a vlan aware device…

I feel like I might be using the wrong setup for running Home Assistant. I'm running HAOS inside of a qemu VM via the downloaded qcow2 image. I'm using PCIe passthrough to run Frigate with a dual Coral accelerator. All of that seems to work. But I don't really have a storage solution for Frigate. Is HAOS the wrong approach here? If I PCIe passthrough an NVIDIA GPU, will it be able to do hardware video decoding?

is that ip the one of the device?

i believe in the readme it says there is apparently a bug with those devices which makes them not respond to local control after some time and that only powercycling the devices solves that, maybe a builtin feature to prevent third party local control

#

it also says that controlling the device using their cloud thing works fine, so maybe integrating that into ha via ifttt might be the best option

I'm getting a nuc to run home assistant on. The plan is to install debian and then use docker. I'm currently doing the same with Ubuntu and I get unsupported installation warnings. Using debian would fix that?

humble mirage
#

Well, not if you're going to keep using Supervised it won't

#

Either install HAOS, or go pure Container - Supervised is going to keep causing issues when you ignore the requirements

Ok I'll try to read up. I thought docker was the container path

You're getting unsupported because you're using Supervised

If you ditch Supervised and go Container you'll be fine

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.

I wouldn't be able to install things like zwavejs, nodered, etc

humble mirage
#

Sure you can

#

You do realise the world existed before add-ons were around?

#

That people who run those pieces of software don't always use Home Assistant?

#

I might be confusing the naming. It may not be something that I will miss

humble mirage
#

It's just a way of installing software

#

Software that exists outside of HA

Gotcha

I think I’m in over my head. I started with Rpi and moved to HA blue about a year ago. Recently the system stopped functioning. I’m lost with docker. With that, I posted the following in #general-archived :

I’m not sure where to post so this is the start. My HA blue stopped functioning correctly. Addons in General would report not running. When attempting to start nothing would change. Within the log it’d report already running. I set all addons to not automatically start, no change. I updated supervisor from the local screen. Now a get the I initiation screen. “Takes up to 20 minutes” and is stuck there. Can anyone please help? Thanks

This issue began with an upgrade to HA 11

Im having issues trying to set up my HA on a Dell Optiplex. I'm pretty sure its an issue with the BIOS. Has anyone been through a similar journey through Dell BIOS?

Yup. OptiPlex 7050 Micro. The instructions on Home Assistant did mention to make 2 changes in the BIOS. I did that but am getting the same time Kernel sync issue

I,m about to install home assistant on a linux machine that I want to use as media pc and nas.. so I don't think I want a VM or a dedicated home assistant os.. but I won't be able to install add-ons unless I do so?

oh

#

my current HA install is on a pi and it randomly breaks (needing a reboot) so I,m trying to fix this

humble mirage
#

I should just bot message add-ons are not magic, the world exists outside of Home Assistant

timber willow
#

also it was slow and got stuck last time I tried creating custom cards..

#

I think that was using HACS.. so this would work in a core app installed on linux?

humble mirage
#

HACS ... that's an integration

#

integrations work with any install method, because they're for HA itself

timber willow
#

ah ok thanks for clearing that up.. in many projects, those would be called add-ons

humble mirage
#

Home Assistant's glossary is your friend

timber willow
#

ah it's written right there on the install page.. all methods support integrations

#

yeah I,m just not familar with everything yet

Hello I'm attempting to install HACS and I get errors in SSH terminal that the address could not be resolved in the wget command

#

The HACS channel directed me here to fix DNS issues

#

I'm able to download and install Add Ons from the built in Home Assistant Add On Store, so the machine has connectivity

#

HA running in virtualbox
