I thought planes had starlink or some decent air fiber stuff nowadays
news to me
LORA it is
pretty sure pigeon net has a faster data transfer rate
fwiw the issue I created against tplink_ess is at https://github.com/lyricnz/tplink_ess/issues/22
I think it's more than a POC. It's been properly sold, hasn't it?
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2549 always a fun reference
the 10.0 callgrind actually looks better than than 9.5 one
so the problem is likely outside of core (which makes sense)
but was still worth a look
Given that HAOS was changed, and not core... how different were the kernel versions? I haven't gone though the release change log, but I wouldn't know what I was looking for
5.15 -> 6.1 if I recall correctly
starlink_grpc is surprisingly expensive as well
almost looks like its doing blocking I/O in the event loop
something calling async_get_data is taking the bulk of the time
query in file called network.py
ahh its your issue https://github.com/lyricnz/tplink_ess/issues/22 above (which finally did load)
I feel like maybe the profiling tools are not dealing with async io too well. I'm 90% sure tplink_ess is all asyncio
I used qcachegrind and snakeviz
the profiler only profiles the event loop
you need py-spy if you want the other threads
112x calls to recvfrom taking 18% of the run time seems suspect
Some airlines have better sats than others, like domestic australia we can get easily 15mbps per person on a plane, but others will barely manage 500kbps for a plane
Hmm, although the underlying library has async methods, it's still using self.s_socket.sendto() and self.receive_socket()) which is probably synchronous
I'll raise an issue against the lib, so we can look into that. cc @wicked rivet
I think it will get better in the next few years. most of my flights are TATL or TPAC so we get all the old stuff
that lib has no async code
its all sync
Oh yeah as airlines slowly upgrade it will continue to get better
Even if they can only manage 10mbps per passenger on average, would go a long way to making flights better for communication, etc
no loop.create_datagram_endpoint or setblocking
Yup, I was just rtfm on async io datagrams in python
but thats likely not the cpu problem
Agreed
all the code can be used with hass.async_add_executor_job
but better to convert it to asyncio
ANything sticking out with that issue bdraco? I don't even know where to look.
I don't know how I'd use py-spy with HAOS which is the issue I was originally investigating...
you may or may not run into this issue when installing py-spy
https://github.com/benfred/py-spy/issues/552
if you do, you may wish to follow or comment on that thread
hello! I'm helping out a friend (who is not technical .. and I am "somewhat" technical) .. for him to test out Homeassistant. We already bought the zigbee/zwave dongle for him. I personally use a Windows Server (used as a plex + blue iris) and put my own HA in a vmware workstation instance, which is working fine for me. I have a decent hardware that allowed me to do that. For him, its just an old laptop which is very limited.
I'm thinking of doing a Proxmox and put HA on a VM there. Then probably put a Windows VM for blue iris (just incase he wants to do that) OR put a Frigate on LXC.
My question is -- is HA in Proxmox any good? Can you install Addons like MQTT, HACS, etc? That is how I do it in my own HA vmware.
It's fine to do that
Presumably you're installing HAOS in the VM, so yes, it supports addons
HACS not being an addon, it works in any installation type
alright cool . thank you!
its the qcow2 format probably in proxmox
I mean in HA .. the qcow2 format VM Ill be using in Proxmox
Hi, q question regarding moving from http to https. Am I in the right place?
you can just ask, and will be sent to the right place if not
OK. All works fine while I'm running on HTTP.
a port forward from ext to int 8123 to the right IP was created and worked OK (also on my iPhone App).
Using duckdns ofcourse.
Now moving to HTTPS using Let's Encrypt, was done OK ( now internally I'm using the same local URL https://192.168.2.117:8123)
A port forward from ext 8123 ---> to int 8123 updated to to ext 443 ---> to int 8123, just wont work.
Do I miss something ?
https://internalip is not ideal
use a proxy to do the ssl communication, run HA in plain http
@low notch can you please explain ?
When did Home assistant completely block for the supervised version to run on raspbian?
Many many months ago
Because it's not supported
And hasn't been for years
Yet... people ignore that, get themselves stuck, and blame the devs
I have a version running version 2022.6.6, so it cant be that long ago?
So you cant run home assistant on raspberrys anymore?
Sure you can
unless you use normal debain
Well then I dont have access to all of the addons?
HAOS is the original project with add-ons. Not "supervised"
yea but from what I understand it doesn't have all of the features as raspbian?
I use my rasberry for other containers too
Now you're on a swing. Pick what you want.
If you want control over containers then choose a docker install and forget add-ons
okay thanks
does home assistant core have plugins
There are no plugins
I'm on the installation step to Write the Image to your Boot Medium. I'm using a live Ubuntu USB stick. I ran the command to add the HAOS boot section but it doesn't show up in the target list of Etcher. When I select the Windows drive it gives me a warning about the system drive and fails when I try to flash it. I'm on a usff PC. Any ideas what I need to do?
I went ahead and installed Ubuntu on the PC and it's still giving me the warning when I select the primary hard drive and it fails when I tell it to go ahead. What am I missing?
what is problem?

how to install correctly
Do you want to run other software on that computer, or are you happy to dedicate it to Home Assistant?
If you want to run other software then either https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/linux#install-home-assistant-container (no add-ons) or https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/linux#install-home-assistant-operating-system (in a VM)
@broken meadow I converted your message into a file since it's above 15 lines :+1:
After you set that, did you restart HA?
From that diagram, Not to use https at all ? (only routing it as HTTPS from internet side?)
Yes
yes, https only to the reverse proxy
so my home assistant suddenly decided not to properly boot anymore so I checked the SD card and bam a ton of failed sectors, I think I made a proper copy of the card using ddrescue but it accidentally aborted while trimming the backup, now I want to know why some big region of the card just got obliterated and if I should just clone it to another card or stop using an SD card altogether
I am using a raspberry pi 3b with a 32gb Kingston SD card
sd cards are not meant to be used as a pc hard drive
flashing the sd and restoring a backup is probably your fastest choice
don't have a dedicated server for Hass at the moment but as soon as I get one I will of course switch over to a proper drive, and with the backup you mean the one I made with ddrescue right?
Um no i mean your config backup, no need for a full disk backup but if thats what you have then that is also in there
A pi3 is really the minimum, i run on a pi4 with nfs boot from nvme and also hit the limits with my rather big but very optimized setup
It doesn't need to be dedicated. HA runs perfectly fine as a VM (or container maybe) in another host OS
Hey guys, I'm doing a small project, im a beginner, and i could use some help with floor3d plan, can anyone help me with some issue, real quick...? It would mean alot...
lo, nebbie needing advice, using rpi4 4 /w gigs ram, debian 11, installed docker and HA containered. I plan to uses ESP8266 Wifi Relays to control the lighting in the house I'm building. It appears I might want to start over and install HAOS for supervisor. Any thoughts or advice?
chirp chirp.....
if you don't need the box for anything else, HAOS is way easier
And be careful with using sd-card for storage: HA includes a database (sqllite) which is very hard on sd-cards, and they will ultimately fail. Better to use a ssd.
Hi. I'm just getting started with HA. I've installed the server and the HA app on an Android and iPhone. The app works well on Android but fails on my iPhone. Here is a screenshot of the HA app config points on my phone: Location: Always; Local Network: ON; Motion & Fitness: ON; Focus: ON; Backgroup App Refresh: ON; Cellular Data: ON; Allow Cross-Website Tracking: OFF. Any pointers here?
You should probably describe what you mean by "fails"
OK, HA isn't being updated with my location. Also, both the Android and my iPhone are showing up as Devices but only the Android is showing up as a Mobile App in Integrations and my iPhone isn't.
oh you're right, well I cloned the card from the img I made and the partition table looks fine and there are no bad blocks

It seems like the Home Assistant OS 10.1 (beta) is either not a beta or not released as beta. In the release notes it states that it is on the beta channel but it looks like it isn't.
Release notes say otherwhise: https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/releases/tag/10.1

ℹ️ ℹ️ ℹ️ This release is currently on the beta channel ℹ️ ℹ️ ℹ️
We'll find out... I've flagged it up to the powers that be
I see there is also a discussion on github about it so it is already known :S, sorry for the double reporting: https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/discussions/2512
Update 10.0 to 10.1 failing
Is there a good guide on installing coturn for webrtc?
I managed somehow to destroy my installation. Wanted to install beta in docker, after installation i got stuck on initializing mjpeg or sun or uptime. Tried to revert to latest image nothing changed. deleted all the config files and restored a backup from duplicati and got to onboarding page asking to add new user. did that and now every second i got a "a login attempt or request" from my laptop
anyone that can help?
- It sounds like you didn't backup or restore
.storage/in your config folder, you want to check on that - What's running on your laptop that's trying to log in?
.storage is also included and restored
Then you wouldn't have seen the onboarding page
my laptop is running windows, i have cleared the cookies on chrome
which files from .storage are critical to restore for no onboarding procedure? i see some of them are not reverted
exactly the files that didn't got restored
so if the .storage folder is partially restored what can i save from my installation to have a running system and near to it's last running condition?
Well, everything you do in the UI is written there...
If "all" you've lost is the auth then I suspect everything else will be fine
Mostly
should i just restore everything except .storage?
because now i can't have any good running system
I'm curious how you managed a partial backup like that
Is it running as a user other than root?
i was pretty sure that it was running on root but it seems not
i will just restore my .yaml files and see if everything works
Well, nothing you set up in the UI will work
Including every integration you set up in the UI
i still get: Login attempt or request with invalid authentication from DESKTOP-VKVJSG0.fritz.box (192.168.178.45). See the log for details.
that's my laptop
and of course safe mode
So... something is running there, some agent or other software
Did you install the Android app?
Something else?
where in .storage are the helpers stored?
hey everyone, got a few questions. tried installing HAOS on Proxmox, which is running in Debian 11. Tteck's script to install completed but I still can't access HAOS landing page, any thoughts?
I'm not exactly sure if it was properly installed or it's an issue with my settings with the network bridge
Noticed I cant access UI or observer URL
You might want to share some screenshots and information of your setup. Summary, Hardware, Console, Console after typing network info, etc
Maybe also the System -> Network page of your node and ip a from its Shell if you're concerned the node's setup is wrong
ah sure! one step at a time haha I'm quite new to this
heh, guess I can't upload photos
Please use imgur or other image sharing web sites, and share the link here.
Image posting is blocked in most channels to discourage people from sharing text as images. Sharing text as images assumes that everybody sees the world as you do, which isn't the case. Some people are colour blind, or have visual impairment that means they can't make sense of an image of text.
I'm confused. I wanted to see screenshots of proxmox's web interface. Did you install proxmox on a desktop OS?
i installed proxmox within Debian 11
i can't as of right now completely wipe my drive so i went this way
Now it makes sense why you asked about the bridge. If you show me screenshots of proxmox's web interface pages I listed above and your /etc/network/interfaces file I can probably tell you more.
You can find the default contents of said file here: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Network_Configuration#_default_configuration_using_a_bridge
I personally use DHCP instead of a static ip though
That looks okay to me. Did you try http://192.168.100.29:8123?
If that doesn't work, can you show me the output of the ip a command and the /etc/network/interfaces file of the host
i was just trying to ping 192.168.100.29 to no success, let me show those two files
the ethernet connection has been giving me issues, on reboot it looses configuration and the host at times can't connect to outside internet or anything so I have to reconfigure, not sure if it is due to my static configuration within GUI network settings of Debian
guess I could just go back to DHCP on that
My guess is that the desktop environment uses network manager or similar instead of the interfaces file and sets different things which conflict.
The interfaces file has no ip defined for the bridge, for example, and vmbr0 has no ip assigned either in ip a's output.
See the link above for an example how it "should" look like
I think I could make both /etc/network/interfaces file and what the network manager is doing in the background and reboot
I'll base it on the link you sent
Unfortunately I'm not familiar with the gnome GUI (at least looks like it) so I'm not sure how exactly it configures the network
heh it sort of not worked at all
had to delete all the config and try again, lost connection to proxmox server on host
ah I remembered I switch NetworkManager config to allow unmanaged networks to be managed. Switched that back to false, and even though my /etc/network/interfaces file is correct, I think during the installation of proxmox-ve it removed ifupdown and now I can't reinstall it
Why not? Proxmox recommends ifupdown2, btw
Let me try with ifupdown2
So far by remanaging with Network Manager, I could verify that ifupdown2 was already installed and up to date. So I changed back /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf to managed=false and by deleting everything and rewriting the /etc/network/interfaces my host has access to internet again and server is up and running
So ifupdown2 seems to be doing its job then
update: when creating the bridge, i lose all communications except access to proxmox server even though all network devices are up in ip a
Can you show the ip a output and the interfaces file again. Might make sense to stop the network manager or configure it instead of that file. Not sure what happens if you use both
I'm having an issue right now that even though ifupdown2 is installed, i get a bash: ifreload: command not found error
I deleted all info from the network manager and stopped the service from managing my network interfaces. After that with the use of /etc/network/interfaces I recovered connection to the internet from the host, but any attempt to configure the bridge breaks it
Try a ip in the 192.168.100.x range. Strange that ifreload fails
yup, fofr some reason ifupdown2 just doesn't wanna work properly haha just ifreload from time to time, and definitely doesn't work when all coms are down, I hve to reboot then to apply network changes
Try apt install --reinstall ifupdown2
Did reinstall, still wonky at times
https://imgur.com/a/tmy3dsi never thought I'd get to see this screen...
Yay
I swear I feel I went through a couple of these configurations once or twice and didn't work haha
Oh man...thank a lot Impact!
Greetings! I have an issue after the lastest (aprox. 2 days ago) update. I wonder if anyone can help me out.
I never had any issues with updates, so as it appeared, I hit install. But it never came back online. I said np, I do a quick reinstall and restore the backup from google drive. In Windows, I format the drive and reinstalled the HA OS, and it booted w/o issue. Uploaded the backup file and hit restore and the same issue. It won't come back online. Tried to sever times in several configurations but had no luck.
The hardware is a pi4 with ssd in an Argon case
Connect a monitor and keyboard and check what it says
It's showing what is usually shown after a fresh install.
on what IP can i access
but can't connect to it, the observer link works fine
Type login in the prompt, then check the logs: https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/operating-system/debugging/#checking-the-logs
It looks like I'm facing this: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/home-assistant-os-10-update-has-broken-my-pi-4b-4gb/561918/19
Somehow it booted, but I can't remember what I selected at the restore menu, I don't have the addons. I will try to restore those separatly from the backup, but sadly the system is still in startup state for minutes now
I give him couple more minutes, I guess it's not advised to reboot it in this stage
it looks like it's not fully starting because of these
Invalid config
The following integrations and platforms could not be set up:
recorder (Show logs)
logbook (Show logs)
history (Show logs)
energy (Show logs)
default_config (Show logs)
Please check your config and logs.
and
Recorder
The recorder could not start, check the logs
What do the logs say?
Since lots of addons are missing it's kinda messy.
still stuck in "Restoring a backup is not possible right now because the system is in startup state."
and can't access addons cause of 401 errors
Well yeah, recorder doesn't work because maria isn't there
it seems that raspian and arch-arm do not have support for apparmor, which i need for hassio which i need for the addons menu
what do i do?
As in you're trying to install supervised?
i am trying to get the addons menu, but yes
You don't need them... if you do a Docker install, there are containers to run to host Z2M or whatever you want
where do i find them? so far i have used ghcr.io/home-assistant/home-assistant:stable
Right, that's for home assistant core itself
What Zigbee software are you going to use
Home Assistant has started!
progress
Restoring addons from backup now
no idea yet, any recommendations? i have a pre-existing raspi that is used but not heavily so (it does some minor automation scripts and a very small website) and now a sonoff 3.0 usb dongle, plus i bought and installed a smart Zigbee lightswitch. and kinda figured my years of python and linux experience would carry me through ^^ So far i am getting discouraged from how bad it feels to work with home assistant, it seems optimized for an entirely different culture :D i am doing my best to learn though
Have you excluded HA OS entirely? Presumably you're wanting to use your Pi for other things?
yup, i have a heavily customized arch running on there for all my other tasks, it just uses less than 10% ram and pretty much 0% cpu on average, so there should be enough room to run anything that runs on a normal raspi
Then yeah, you'll want to run Docker if you're going to use that same hardware
I'd suggest Zigbee2MQTT, but I'm partial to that, as that's all I've ever used
sounds good enough :D
For that, you'll need an MQTT Broker and Zigbee2MQTT itself set up alongside Home Assistant
https://medium.com/geekculture/home-assistant-docker-zigbee2mqtt-3d8e0ba02d10 does this guide look ok to you?
if so i will follow that
I think I'd pick this one over that: https://sometechy.website/smart-home/home-assistant-in-docker-4-add-ons-mqtt-and-zigbee2mqtt/
One thing specifically is to make sure you use the static path to your coordinator (by-id) instead of the /dev/ttyUSB0 (or whatever) path
The actual docs for each piece of software would be best though
at least this is getting me some more familiarity with docker :D
i assume the /dev/serial/by-id/usb-1a86_USB2.0-Serial-if00-port0:/dev/ttyACM from the guide is the coordinator, i have found my equivalent (/dev/serial/by-id/usb-ITEAD_SONOFF_Zigbee_3.0_USB_Dongle_Plus_V2_20230220180004-if00) but it is missing the tty descriptor which teletypewrite am i using and why? (alternatively where can i read up on that?)
hello, i want to add a map of my house with this:Your HA Digital Twin floor3d-card downloaded with hacs . When i add my file and my folder gives me this error:http://paste.debian.net/1278882/ can someone have any idea: Thanks
Anyone have any ideas why my full backups would fail for core? That is with built in backup. When I try and use Autobackup integration it says another backup is running, but there isn’t one running as far as I can see.
Be aware this broke today for Debian 11 users...
Heads up if anyone uses Debian 11 + Docker and uses the /dev/serial/by-id to map their sticks seems a recent update to systemd from today broke this functionality. You have to update your configurations to reference /dev/ttyXXX or do some custom udev foo and make your own devices.
good evening
I am installing HA at proxmox
do not complete
is it not possible send screens here
no you need to use imgur
but you might not need a picture at all. what is your exact issue?
the instalation does finish
which install type? haos in a vm or docker container or lxc or?
just write this command
bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/raw/main/vm/haos-vm.sh)"
at promox shell ?
yeah
my BIOS does not have support for virtalization
Sucks
do I have to change some itens after this script finish ?
download finished
extractiing kvm disk image
creating HAOS VM
✓ Created HAOS VM (haos10.1)
- Starting Home Assistant OS VM...KVM virtualisation configured, but not available. Either disable in VM configuration or enable in BIOS.
[ERROR] in line 430: exit code 255: while executing command qm start $VMID
So you need to enable vtx/ vtd in bios or your shit is too old
I disable KVM hardware virtualization at the VM created
start again
waiting....
stop here
@robust cypress I wrote a complete Proxmox HA install guide using the tteck script: https://www.derekseaman.com/2023/04/installing-home-assistant-on-proxmox-quick-start-guide.html
my BIOS does not have support for virtalization.
will it work fine?
Your BIOS and CPU must support virtualization. Proxmox uses virtualization.
😞
If you can't run Proxmox, then you can bare metal install HAOS on the computer.
how can I do it ?
Just write HAOS to a USB stick (using something like Balena etcher), boot from the USB stick, and install HAOS.
@robust cypress https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/generic-x86-64/
the BIOS at computer I am using does not support UEFI Boot mode i
do you think it will work ?
Just try it and see....I'm not sure.
can I use ventoy?
I agree..go to ebay or amazon used thin clients and spend $50-$100 on something more recent
including haos_generic-x86-64-10.1.img.xz inside pendrive
you can even find something >50 if you know where to look
I can use this hardware install debian 11 and after install HA with docker?
do you have howto for it ?
No I only do HA OS ..sorry
just a curiousity if you know the answer. im running ha through promox, but my proxmox decided to instal as legacy boot. my machine supports uefi, is that why im not having issues?i kinda woulda expected to have issues
I can't say I know all of the details but the requirement for HA is just for itself, so if the VM is set up to boot UEFI, then you're fine even if Proxmox itself didn't boot that way
Is it a 64 bit processor at least?
ye that explains it, thought maybe so but wasnt sure if it actually worked that way. cool
@robust cypress if you have money to spend it’s better to buy a mini pc or thin client depending on $ available
then, I can install and it will work ?
Otherwise starting out with docker is fine
using debian 11 ?
which address?
I have other computer here that support this feature, I you try on it.
Can I use ventoy to start HA installation with img instead of iso file ?
No. HAOS has no bootable installer like that
I recently installed HA to a NUC, away from a VirtualBox VM (I had constant thread hangs and desync errors that ruined reliability in VBox) and imported a full backup. Awesome! Everything works!
Except - trying to do updates, all but one of them fail with this line:
WARNING (MainThread) [supervisor.jobs] 'HomeAssistantCore.update' blocked from execution, no host internet connection
- There are no repairs available, including hidden
- I have rebooted both soft and hardware
- I have changed my internet settings from DHCP to static and set DNS servers and back without luck
On this last point - I have two devices in the NUC, en01 and WLP0S20F3, the latter I assume being the wireless card. I can't enable the device, it throws an immediate Unknown error, see supervisor logs, so if I am somehow using the wrong device, I'm not sure how to change that.
Anyone experienced anything like this or have some tips? My router isn't blocking the device as I can access it through LAN just fine, and all it is doing is giving HA a static IP (the same as it was doing on VBox).
(This didn't seem applicable to hardware, that seemed to be more about things to control with HA, but if i'm in the wrong place, i'll move)
HA is going through a simple switch to the router along with another device that has internet access, also.
Hopefully this log helps? Looks to my uneducated self like core.py has an error in calling the update API. (Go figure, idiot, I guess?)
Hopefully this gets line converted because I don't want to overload here too much
@runic venture I converted your message into a file since it's above 15 lines :+1:
nice
I have updates for Core, Supervisor and two addons due, all throw the no host connection error.
If you ssh in, does internet etc work? What device is it using? What dns settings? What routing?
If the LAN works, but the internet doesn't, it sounds a bit like your default gateway isn't working/set
Or (more likely) DNS
@runic venture ☝️
I've been trying to setup HASS* on WSL since I recently moved and haven't unpacked my server stuff but I am endlessly in a cycle of
ImportError: cannot import name 'html5lib' from 'pip._vendor'
- I got past couple recent ones but this one is endless. I tried some of the SO posts but then I'm getting
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Anyone experience these issues with WSL?
you will be way faster just using a containerized ha, any reason why you explicitly chose a pyenv install?
Nah was just following the WSL install guide.
yeah, that is not a very friendly way to install ha
Alright, I'll go VM then. Wanna set some stuff up before I unpack. Thanks.
Well, I manually set a static IP and DNS, but I can't know if it actually updated or not (it takes minutes to save that change, also)
Great question, have no idea how to SSH in. I'm assuming putty?
no idea why they only show core and vm install, docker container install should also be possible in wsl
I debated going docker but I remember last time I did I had a lot of issues with network access. I never tried Docker for Windows, though.
do not do docker for windows
its a bit to learn (docker/linux) but incredibly useful for your further linux adventure to set up and get apps/services going very fast
You need to enable a ssh integration first
If you set static ip, did you set gateway/default route also?
Yeah, router as the gateway and 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8 as the DNS hosts
It appears to set those details fine but makes no difference to internet connectivity
I believe I have SSH enabled to use the addon you can get to show the console in HA - I don't know if that would count here?
I have the Terminal addon
iirc when i looked a year ago they were simply unsupported instals
Does internet work in there? Ping curl etc?
I'm not good with linux commands - I'll give it a try and let you know
Try “ping 8.8.8.8” and “curl -v google.com”
To curl:
- Could not resolve host: google.com
*Closing connection 0
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: google.com
To ping 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes
[]
No progress beyond that point - looks like it's waiting for a reply, I think?
What does “route” output?
Dumb question (probably) but how can I copy+paste out of terminal? It doesn't pick up text if I hold it highlighted
It's probably a good idea to run these commands on the host, not in the SSH container
Your computer is not getting to the internet which breaks everything
Hmm, can I change location in this terminal session or would I need to do this right on metal?
Hmm - so it does seem DNSy then
Broken dns is caused by broken routing; not the other way around
Two destinations, default and 172.30.32.0 - default shows core-samba.local(?), genmask 0.0.0.0, and the second dest shows * for gateway and 255.255.254.0 as the genmask
What is core-samba host?
Ah - I have a samba addon that lets me get to HA's local files over network via windows share
It was/is necessary to copy and edit things in HACS oftentimes
this very much depends on what device/terminal youre running ssh through. theyre all annoyingly different. some let you right click, some let you ctrl c, some copy on highlight, you get the gist
I’m on my phone. It’s hard to type.
Rrr, I see - this one only highlights text if I hold LMB and doesn't remain highlighted, or copy with any normal control
Pain in the ain
I use file-manager addon to view edit ha files, not samba
I'm more than willing to switch, I used what I think was in a guide on the HA forum somewhere
Or under a HACS addon github
Sorry I can’t really help. Typing on phone too hard
What does ha network info say?
Thank you for helping this much, @copper steppe !
Lots and lots - anything specific in here to look for before I write it all out?
The DNS for docker is definitely wrong though
Unless, wait
is 172. internal?
Either use something like putty to connect via SSH and copy paste the text or make a screenshot
I always forget
Yeah this server blocks images which is a beach
Let me try putty
Please use imgur or other image sharing web sites, and share the link here.
Image posting is blocked in most channels to discourage people from sharing text as images. Sharing text as images assumes that everybody sees the world as you do, which isn't the case. Some people are colour blind, or have visual impairment that means they can't make sense of an image of text.
my networking skills are very much reading-off-the-manufacturer's-instructions
Yeah, i'm familiar, that's just a bit of a pain
I'll try putty first, bear with
Man networking's a pain
So ethernet is set up correctly but docker isn't
Looks like some unreachable internal IP
That's fine. What's more concerning is host_internet: false and supervisor_internet: false
Yeah, they have no net. But why?
I would assume having a valid ethernet connection would do the magickery
I can get to it from the LAN, so it's outbound connection seems like it should work
Not sure. Everything else but this looks okay to me
Hmm. Do those conditions change on their own once internet is up to HA, or would it need to restart or something? I can try restarting the router to see if it's something there
Actually I'm noticing that my router doesn't list HA in the wired devices section
It's definitely there in the ACL list and clients lists
I'm not familiar with HA's code base. I'd try re-plugging the ethernet cable and maybe cycling power. On a "normal" linux OS I'd probably run ifreload and/or dhclient
I've tried full restarts of the HA device so maybe I'll restart the switch and router and go from there
Thanks - I'll report back here
Appreciate the help from everyone so far!
Running into an issue with the latest debian packages in my containered HA installation. After drilling down further - the issue exists in the hotplug management daemon package update. This causes the attached Sonoff Zigbee dongle serial port to not show up in the vbox vm
so if you have a usb zigbee stick on your windows machine being shared to your debian vm - that would fail with the latest debian packages update....
Does it make sense to restore from a partial backup on a freshly installed system? Also, should I be expecting to see more than one item in the checklist?
Help... Getting stuck on starting Homeassistant in a DEV-Container in VS-Code. After Creating Useraccount/Language/Currency i'm stuck... Alreads restarted HA, Cleared all Data, recreated docker, tried different browsers, cleared cookies...
i Only got a screen with a HomeAssistant Badge, no buttons, no actions
i followed these guide for setting up
If you need help with a dev container, for developing, then #developers is a better channel to ask in
thx.. thought, it was a general problem since i found multiple documents on google referencing that problem - but non solution worked for me.. Still stuck on onboarding...
the strange thing: it formerly worked for me very well but suddenly it stops workign
Hey, getting the below error sometimes on my HA installation. Am I right in assuming the machine I'm running it on is having issues?https://imgur.com/a/p2ucPBv
Hard to tell with a shrunken image... but probably
I mean unless you wanted to start from scratch and you weren't having problems I don't see why you wouldn't
It's only one item because you probably only specified core in the partial backup
is it possible to install home assistant supervised on a pine a64+?
Supervised is only an option on actual Debian, and it's not a good option
Why not
Because it's fragile and easily broken
All you have to do is either ignore the requirements, or not keep on top of changes to them
Do you know which one I need to select when I get prompted which device I have
Are you running actual Debian?
Not a Debian derivative, or something based on it, but actual Debian
Dietpi so a Debian based distribution
So, not Debian and not supported
Okay then I will install Debian
Google suggests the A64+ uses the same CPU as the Pi3, so maybe try that
because the A64+ is the same cpu as Pi3 can you also install HASSIO on a A64+?
Hi guys, I've been trying to install Home Assistant in the docker container for a few days now, and the only thing that pops up in the console is
s6-rc: info: service s6rc-oneshot-runner: starting

I created a container through Portainer with this text:
version: '3'
services:
homeassistant:
container_name: homeassistant
image: "ghcr.io/home-assistant/home-assistant:stable"
volumes:
- /var/lib/docker/volumes/homeassistant-data/_data:/config
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
restart: unless-stopped
privileged: true
network_mode: host
The site doesn't open, what should I do? What else should I add to the information?
When you say the site doesn't open you are using a web browser to connect?
A web browser
I would say that your choice of volume location is highly unusual
- /var/lib/docker/volumes/homeassistant-data/_data:/config
However... have you looked in there for the log file?
I created a volume in Portainer and took the path directly from there
I don't know how to check if there's a log file, I'm told that the volume is Unused
Look in /var/lib/docker/volumes/homeassistant-data/_data
Portainer is also known for being ... a bit weird
What do I need to find there? I think all the homeassistant files are there
There should be a log file there
There are log files, but they are all empty, should I restart the container?
I restarted container, but size = 0 bytes https://imgur.com/FCs9ctx
Check the container logs, in Portainer
It's entirely possible Portainer is being weird again
I ended up reinstalling 'portainer' and corrected the homeassistant installation script by removing network_mode: host and adding ports: 8123:8123, everything works!
Well, by removing host networking you've broken many integrations
good afternoon
I am trying to install HAOS bare metal at my old laptop
I record the files at my pendrive
according this instruction
nevertheless my laptop does not recognize the pendrive to boot it
when I enable UEFI at BIOS this screen appears
You don't write those files to the pendrive, you write them to the boot drive
okay, thanks. Can I write it in HD or just SSD ?
Yes, either
thanks let me try again
can I do it directly from windows or must I run linux live CD and run balena etcher fron there?
You have to be able to access the drive
So, up to you - do you have a way of accessing it from Windows?
yes, but balena will write files correctly from windows? I mean, windows is running in HD and balena will write at same HD
will it works?
Well... are you trying to write it to the drive you've booted from?
yes
no, it won't write to the drive Windows is running from
I am preparing ubuntu live usb
Flash Ubuntu live to your pen drive, boot into Ubuntu, download the HAOS xz file, open ubuntu's "disks" utility and choose the laptop HD. Then select to restore the HAOS file to that HD.
You can skip downloading balena
How can I restore restore the HAOS file to HD ?
hello. currently am testing a proxmox install on j3455 which has 4 cores and 8GB RAM. did a fresh install and let it sit for over 12 hours. is there a reason why it's running literally nothing yet the CPU is 40%-60% at all times? meanwhile my existing install on a raspberry pi 3 is using under 20% cpu (and thats with all my addons running)
In Ubuntu, open "disks"
Should be <10% unless you have crazy addons
Is it installed or stuck installing?
its completed and running for over 12 hrs
What does it say on console? Check logs too
My proxmox is 3% with many integrations and addons
are you running latest version of the OS? 10.1
Latest is bad (high cpu) for done people. Wound suggest revert to 9.5 see if problem goes away
done people?
Some people, I assume
gotcha. how do i revert to 9.5? i can clone this instance and downgrade it to test
Hey that's what I'm about to do heh
so thats the issue huh?
For me, and some
my install with high CPU is 100% fresh and brand new, i havent even installed or loaded a backup yet
all i did was create an account
Try downgrading os
yeah im doing that now
It’s easy and safe
Otherwise problem likely in logs
Sorry one finger phone typing
yeah im cloning the vm to see what happens. i wanted to get off my pi..
Cloned vm from rpi? But they’re different arch??
cloning the proxmox VM to downgrade the clone
im aware, just being safe. doesnt bother me that much
Ps suggest tteck script for one line haos install on proxmox
whats that?
Google tteck proxmox
i see. i just created and loaded the image manually.
Sure. Ymmv. I use tteck for all kinds of things on proxmox
How did that go?
good evening
I wrote HAOS using balena etcher at my computer
but when it boot HAOS does not start
I change my BIOS to UEFI
please, what I am doing wrong ?
it's still running around 40% cpu on version 9.5
Need to view logs. Maybe try a parallel tteck install in case you muffed a setting?
which logs are you referring to? system > logs ?
Ha logs
I’ll be on a computer in 15 mins might be able to help more then. Try tteck in parallel - it’s possible you made mistake in vm settings or something
sure ill look at it
OK, on a computer now
you want me to try this - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox ?
it's just an idea, for a repeatable no-human involved install.
TLDR open the shell on the proxmox node, and paste:
bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/raw/main/vm/haos-vm.sh)"
its up. just created an account.
Mine seems to be running fine with ~5% cpu
Status running
HA State none
Node pve2
CPU usage 7.04% of 1 CPU(s)
Memory usage 93.67% (1.37 GiB of 1.46 GiB)
Bootdisk size 32.00 GiB
what you type to get that
That's from the summary panel within the VM in proxmox
maybe the hardware im trying to run it on just isnt good?
Status running
HA State none
Node proxmox
CPU usage 75.71% of 2 CPU(s)
Memory usage 89.54% (3.58 GiB of 4.00 GiB)
Bootdisk size 32.00 GiB
It was some j-thingy?
@distant jungle I converted your message into a file since it's above 15 lines :+1:
would have thought it would have been better than using an old pi3
Looks like the J3455 is about twice as fast.
well thats a bit messed up then that my cpu is 30%+ for no reason lol
im trying on my NAS now to see how it compares
are you running latest proxmox kernel?
its a new install, so yeah
You disabled all the subscription repos, did the updates, cleaned old kernels, etc?
You could try edge kernels, see if that's any better
again tteck scripts for all this 🙂
disabled subs, i hid the popup box, checked for updates
The newer, low-cost Celeron processors seem to require some adjustments, such as using "Host" as the CPU model and the more recent 6.2 kernel.
Here's the man himself 🙂
oh? let me look here hmm
now where the heck do i change the cpu model
oh i see - https://i.imgur.com/ChBORPu.png
my kernel version on the VM creation says 6.x - 2.6 Kernel
I assume he means on the host
check the summary panel on the proxmox node.
eg: mine is "Linux 5.15.102-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.15.102-1 (2023-03-14T13:48Z"
CPU(s) 4 x Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU J3455 @ 1.50GHz (1 Socket)
Kernel Version Linux 5.15.107-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.15.107-1 (2023-04-20T10:05Z)
PVE Manager Version pve-manager/7.4-3/9002ab8a
Repository Status Proxmox VE updates Non production-ready repository enabled!
Try the edge kernel
you mean reinstall proxmox completely?
Nah, just the kernel, which is one part of the underlying OS. Use the tteck script: /Proxmox VE tools/Proxmox VE Edge Kernel Tool/
It will require a proxmox reboot though
By utilizing the mentioned script and choosing the "Advanced" option, a dialog box will appear, presenting various options.
Use the kernel from here, https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/opt-in-linux-6-2-kernel-for-proxmox-ve-7-x-available.124189/
6.x is for future proxmox versions
Here's a recent guide to look over:
https://www.derekseaman.com/2023/04/installing-home-assistant-on-proxmox-quick-start-guide.html
I just install my HAOS bare metal but the system did not recognize my wifi adapter and did not get IP address
I haven't bothered updating to edge kernels. Any point on old hardware tteck? i5-6500T
do you know how can I solve it ?
use ethernet? 🙂
im loading on 6.2 kernel now
okay at the beggining but after I would to use wifi network
the computer will be far from the router
It’s a terrible idea
whats the best way to reboot proxmox? select the proxmox node and restart? or is there a higher up level to restart?
just did that, here is what i got now:
CPU(s) 4 x Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU J3455 @ 1.50GHz (1 Socket)
Kernel Version Linux 6.2.11-1-pve #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC PVE 6.2.11-1 (2023-04-20T09:59Z)
PVE Manager Version pve-manager/7.4-3/9002ab8a
Repository Status Proxmox VE updates Non production-ready repository enabled!
ok, you're running a newer kernel now. and "host" mode cpu in the vm?
does it look any better?
gotta edit the host mode on cpu still
you dont think i would need to rebuild it from scratch with those new settings would ya?
Did you look over the guide I linked?
slowly am
probably no need to rebuild it when you change CPU type; it's like moving the disk between different computers.
looks like using host as the cpu mode and the latest kernel. still seeing cpu at 40%. throwing 4 cores at it and 6GB of memory. going to recreate the vm but i doubt itll make a difference
I got access to my HA homepage using ethernet
is it possible fix the wifi connection from HA webpage ?
nope, it's too low-level for that. See link above, or google it
the link above the commands were changed
so search the forums, man. HAOS is intended to be appliance, it doesn't have great ootb support for wireless because it's so thoroughly recommended against
I just install Home Assistant onto my Raspberry Pi. I got my Apple TV connected through Home Assistant but can't figure out to add a remote card into Home Assistant dashboard. There isn't any steps on the docs page. Any ideas?
you want #integrations-archived for the integration itself and #frontend-archived for the card questions but in general you should get a media_playerand a remoteentity, using this lovelace config should get you going https://community.home-assistant.io/t/apple-tv-remote-implementation/194317
Howdy folks, hope this is the right channel. Having some issues with my HA install on a virtual machine on an OptiPlex 5050.
A few weeks ago I noticed my automations weren't running. When I would get onto my machine and check the HA instance to verify it was running, it would have a slew of "watchdog timeout" errors. I also have issues connecting to the UI, and nothing seems to help that except just repeated attempts? Two things I did around this time:
-
Setup a Minecraft server on the same computer
-
Connected an external SSD to be used as a home network drive.
I've already disconnected the drive but no change, so I'm assuming there's an issue with the Minecraft server? Anyways, I'm curious where to start looking for troubleshooting and finding the most useful information, as I'm pretty new to all this so don't want to bother you all with handholding me through it!
Can you tell us a bit about your setup? What hypervisor do you use, what host OS, what HA installation type, etc. What are the exact errors?
It's generally a good idea to check the system logs. Usually with something like journalctl or dmesg.
Also see here in case you use HAOS: https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/operating-system/debugging/#checking-the-logs
Like I mentioned, Dell OptiPlex 5050. Host OS is Windows 10, HAOS running on Oracle VirtualBox. I just changed a few things and restarted so now the errors are gone, but I will post with them as they come up.
Thank you for the link, that is exactly the kind of point in the right direction I was looking for!
Where to read about setting up duckdns and home companion
Home Companion?
Hi. Looking at this documentation - https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/linux#install-home-assistant-container. I am wondering if the backslash is to indicate a line change or is it part of the command. e.g. --name homeassistant
--restart=unless-stopped \
That'd be there for the line breaks to facilitate ease of copy/paste
Running HA on docker. I think a messed up with setting up the volumes. Is there a way to check where HA is saving data?
The software in the container itself doesn't know what you've mapped. It would be clear from what you mapped in the docker run or docker-compose.yaml
You ... probably didn't map anything then, not as far as HA was concerned
yeah, what you tried to do there is wrong and didn't work
your config directory is sitting in the container, which is a bad thing
You can get it out, but if you're new to Docker (and Linux) then it's going to be "an experience"
hehe everything is a experience with HA
so docker exec -it containerid /bin/bash
?
It's trickier because you need to map an external directory properly to be able to copy your config directory out of the container by doing that. You're better off making a backup, downloading it, extracting it into a directory of your choice, and properly mapping it
okay, so stopping the currently running HA after backing up and starting a new docker HA with correct mapping?
After downloading and extracting, yes
docker cp should work
That would require more explaining
I will start over. Thx
Can I install HA directly on a PC or do I have to install linux first then install inside that?
Running native on linux will give you a lot more options
does that support the supervised method?
if so, once i get a linux variant on there, what method do i use to install HA?
supervised is a trap, don't go that route
you can run it in docker, also kvm is possible for haos and pyenv is also possible
im running supervised on my raspberry pi right now, i would like to repeat the same style
as when i reload my backup i want it all to work the same
if you need addons go haos, not supervised
sorry. maybe i got them mixed up
well haos is a (almost) complete os, you will need a virtual machine or install it bare metal
https://i.imgur.com/30I6yfs.png
Home Assistant 2023.4.6
Supervisor 2023.04.1
Operating System 9.5
Frontend 20230411.1 - latest
this is what im running right now
yes, you will need a vm or bare metal install
can i bare metal install that on a regular intel based PC?
i tried a VM on it, but the hardware is so low-end, that a fresh install pegs the CPU at 40% CPU usage 24/7 with no backup loaded yet. so i was wondering about bare metal.
i guess my question around that...can you install it via USB? or do i have to flash the image directly onto the drive that will go into the PC?
a ssd is clearly preferred, you should be able to install wherever you want though
yeah i have an SSD in that mini PC, but i cant take it out, image it, and put it back in
would i have to boot to a live USB and then write it i guess?
you can boot a live linux on it, write the image to the ssd
yeah sorry i just thought of that or i wouldnt have wasted your time to read it
ill give that a shot.
what's your hardware?
that j3455
4 cores 1.5GHz
8GB RAM
how are you running it
vm on proxmox, gx-415ga, 1.5ghz 4 cores, but no hyperthreading
how much CPU does yours idle? i tried proxmox but i had 40% CPU on idle with fresh install nothing configured yet
Should be fine. That’s a bit better than a rpi
yeah i just wish it wouldnt run to high in the CPU. is there any way to see what processes are causing that?
@amber iron how much does your CPU idle at?
i have a lot going on in ha, and it sits at 20% most of the time
are you doing anything special when creating the VM? like i said, mine sits at 40% with nothing installed yet. still cant figure out why.
not really.. i set it up with this script here
bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/raw/main/vm/haos-vm.sh)"
but pretty sure it sets it up with mostly defaults
yeah i tried that also. insane how mine just doesnt work better even though its a better cpu
you have all your cores assigned to haos?
yeah
not sure, 40% sounds a lot, but are you sure it wasnt still setting stuff up in the bg
100%. i had it sitting idle for over 24 hrs
actually was this haos 10
well, heard a lot about 10 increasing cpu use for some people but, if its 9.5 iunno, sounds odd to me
is there a way to see what process is using the CPU?
in haos?
yeah. like how can i see what is pegging it at 40% cpu?
glances would probably be the easiest way
It's an addon. You install it and press z to show the processes Iirc. You can also configure it to always show them but that uses more CPU usage itself
gotcha. going to look at that quick.
hmmm maybe i see a problem
hassio_dns using 141 cpu
i think i ran into this before
ha. i wonder if my custom DNS setup is the cause
sheesh. i need to fix that
@raven forge lifesaver
glances helped me see that hassio_dns was the issue
i have a firewall rule that blocks dns for port 853
once i added an exclusion for it, its fine
@copper steppe see above ^
it was trying to talk to DNS and getting filtered 10,000+ times a second
now my CPU is at 5%
10,000+ times a second
👀
hassio_dns has a well documented history of behaving badly, sadly
There's at least a few forum threads where posters discovered it to be the cause of their system being overloaded
bruh
glad u figured it out tho
i totally forgot i excluded it in my firewall rules to allow the fallback DNS to work. it was tanking every fresh install i did and couldnt figure out why
once i installed the glance addon it showed me right away what the problem was
https://i.imgur.com/CJoCet1.png this was 0.5 seconds of monitoring
Hello guys,
I am currently having an issue with my HA setup.
It wont Start after a reboot and only the Command 'banner' fixes it. Does anyone Else have such an issue and any solution for it?
Are you sure it doesn't actually start. How long do you wait before you consider it to be not started
30min
But with Supervisor repair it now seems to work
This is an excellent article that demonstrates how to use the latest procedures to set up HAOS on Proxmox.
https://www.derekseaman.com/2023/04/installing-home-assistant-on-proxmox-quick-start-guide.html
The hostname warning is a bit dramatic though. I don't see a reason why you couldn't change it later on
Although it is possible, it can be quite challenging. It is much simpler to take some time and consider the hostname beforehand.
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/proxmox-node-name-change.14327/
Ya I tried to change the proxmox hostname once, and even with a lot of googling, Promox died on me. Faster to wipe and re-install.
Can I host this on Windows???
Yes
There's a link in the channel topic
oh
That looks like a rehash of the previous article? That you linked some guy to a day or two back?
Ah the microcode update
Hi guys! Following up on the replied-to post. I've restarted everything involved in the network and no success. Anyone have any new ideas?
I still feel like those public-looking (or at least, not-the-same-as-my-internal-LAN-subnet) IPs need updating in Docker, from a networking perspective that seems to be a problem.
I need some docker help please
please just jump to the question
i'm trying to implement the ibeacons and am having problems understanding how to make ethe dbus available to HA.
The system says if I'm using the run command do one thing and if I'm using compose do something different. I just installed it and can't figure out where to add the necessary arguements to the command line.
Is this the right channel to post about installing Home assistant OS?
I hope so
I’m trying to install the latest stable version on a hp elitedesk computer, I checked the website and it meets the system requirements. It installs perfectly fine until “Waiting for home assistant CLI to be ready…”. After a minute or two it prints “[WARN] Home Assistant CLI not starting! Jump into emergency console…” and I don’t know what to do. If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.
Any more info that I forgot to give just lmk
It’s installing on a SSD and secure boot is disabled
It then puts me into a console and I don’t really know how to proceed
loginand check if you can ping google ?
Hello,
I'd like to install Home Assistant on my NAS-Server which runs Truenas Core, which doesn't officially support it anymore.
What other possibilities do I have? I only have that NAS-Server.
I found regression. the tts automation ui does no longer work with google speakers.
there is no option to set. entity_id: media_player.googlehomeSOMETHINGSOMTHING

oh a other name.. almost same yaml. that works i guess
Am i correct in thinking theres no way to use the internal wifi on my x86 box because the standard kernel modules werent included and theres no way to ad them? And thers also no way to partition data between 2 networks?
*on home assitant OS
In 30 years i havent used a worse *nix. Even routers dont store their passwords in plaintext.
one suggestion =- i get you removed LSPCI cos RPi doesnt have it, but generic-x86 do.
a pi has a pci bus like any other pc
he's talking about the cli tool being missing from haos
yes I know but that makes no sense
he's trying to figure out which hardware/driver he has, I guess
use a hypervisor, enjoy whatever hardware that supports
or a container install, which fits 99% of needs
its not due to the pi that haos does not come with pciutils, its because you generally only need it in rare cases like yours
wifi is shite anyways for servers
hence 2 networks, wifi for the IoT devices and eth for the local net 🙂
iirc "some" wifi devices are available, but it's so thoroughly recommended against, I don't think the maintainers go out of their way to add more.
And yeah a hypervisor is whats needed. A hypervisor for a hypervisor thats misconfigured and as sucure as win 98

how to I install influxDB 2.7 on HAOS?
You'd need an #add-ons-archived for that
yes I tried the influxdb addon but the interface is useless
That's your only option if you want to run it on HAOS
I tried the standalone influxdb on window CLI and it looked promising
You can run InfluxDB wherever you want though
how do I get influxDB to run from the same IP address under the HAOS VM?
so I have to not use HAOS and install everything manually?
How long does restore from backup take? And what do I do when it doesn't response after 15minutes...
Depends on the size of the backup and the hardware
20 GB to a Pi on an SD card, takes a long time
500Mb, installed on NUC (beelink) with proxmox vm : 4 x Intel(R) Celeron(R) N5105 @ 2.00GHz (1 Socket)
(starting to sweat 🙂 )
Once the restore is done it'll reboot
(damn latest update to 2023-4-5 did not so great...)
sorry update 2023.5 messed a lot of integrations up)
Hi! I got this error (the first one) during installation on RPi4 (tried both balena and Rpi Imager). Any idea?
ERROR (SyncWorker_0) [supervisor.docker.interface] Can't install ghcr.io/home-assistant/aarch64-hassio-audio:2023.04.1: 500 Server Error for http+docker://localhost/v1.42/images/create?tag=2023.04.1&fromImage=ghcr.io%2Fhome-assistant%2Faarch64-hassio-audio&platform=linux%2Farm64: Internal Server Error ("Get "https://ghcr.io/v2/": context deadline exceeded")

You are using kvm? it cant form a bridge network on wifi if I recall correctly. You can use an ethernet to wifi "black box"
Sorry I took so long to respond, I just installed some packages through the CLI so I assume it’s connected to the network, and ping works outside the CLI ITSELF
CAPS
hi I started facing an issue that the HA OS (on pi4) won't load from datadisk, it loads an old version of HA (os is 10.1) if I do ha os datadisk list I see my disk there
so it's actually allowing me to move my disk from the SD card over the USB drive again (I guess this will overwrite my current config on the USB drive)
Hey im facing an issue after registering account on home assistant, when i login in im stuck on a page(onboarding.html). Im using VM, any ideas?
I've seen somebody else report something similar. You're using Chrome with no ad-blockers?
Yes, but already removed it and it keeps the same state. I tried other browsers as well but the error was the same
Has anyone installed directly to a nvme drive before from a USB? I do not want to take apart the deskpi if i can help it.
If you boot some type of live environment, you could run Balena or whatever to write HAOS to your drive
ok, that is a thought... thanks
I don’t really know how to check in the home assistant CLI if it’s connected to internet but ping works outside it.
If there’s a specific way to check pls lmk
And I wasn’t able to respond because I am an idiot.
Try ip a, ping google.com, ha network info
Pinging Google.com works, ha network info says it is connected, enabled, and using the Ethernet interface Im expecting it to
I can’t really copy it all down unless you want a very dirty and ugly screenshot
Lol
No that's fine. Looks like you have internet access. I'd recommend giving the logs a visit: https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/operating-system/debugging/#checking-the-logs
So there’s no errors or warns under hassio_supervisor but there’s an error under homeassistant that states “[Homeassistant.components components.hassio.handler] Timeout on /supervisor/options request”. There are also multiple warnings that subscriptions/subscription renewals failed and that several setups took longer than 10 seconds
Can’t really format cause I am in mobile sorry
I just got my ODROID-M1 delivered with a 128GB emmc chip. I can't seem to get it to update the petitboot with the instructions from here: https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/blob/dev/Documentation/boards/hardkernel/odroid-m1.md
I downloaded the spiupdate img file and flashed it with BalenaEtcher
It doesn't present a fat partition to drop the spiboot.img file onto
So I created another partition on the SD card that was small and partitioned fat
Put the image on there
It doesn't update it when booting the board
Anyone have any advice?
The version of Petitboot that's on there now is (dev.20220303)
I'm not familiar with the process, but it sounds like something went wrong w/ the etching process if you didn't see that partition created
How does the SD card present after flashing
It creates two paritions
but they arne't windows friendly
I don't have an SD card
It's the eMMC chip
Oh dur.. sorry re-read
Let me share a screen shot
Youll need to upload to imgur and share the link
When I flash the HA image onto the SD card it'll boot up completely.
but I don't want to use the SD card to boot
instead would want to boot the eMMC chip
The instructions indicate that you need to updated petitboot
Right.... so did you flash that initial image on an SD and follow those directions?
Sorry I wasn't very good about being clear..
Downloaded this image: http://ppa.linuxfactory.or.kr/images/petitboot/odroidm1/spiupdate_odroidm1_20220304.img.xz
Flashed it with balenaetcher with a new SDCard
I also downloaded this image: http://ppa.linuxfactory.or.kr/images/petitboot/odroidm1/spiboot-20230328.img
and renamed it to spiboot.img
but didn't have a place to put it on the SDCard because none of the partitions would mount in windows
Gotcha.... it should be that first partition you copy it to
Not sure why it wouldn't be mountable by windows
Tried Rufus as well same result
Tried another sdcard same result
Tried another computer
Same result
Btw the other computer is a mac
Guess I'll break out the ole Linux machine
Home Assistant gets stuck on /onboarding.html page during initial setup. Cannot find a way around. If you search the internet, you will find many other instances of this happening throughout the years, with most of the issues being shrugged off.
I have tried 1) using the official Docker container, 2) booting a VM with the KVM image, and 3) booting the official Hyper-V image on Windows, and all three times I am stuck at this step. I have also tried 1) different browsers, 2) clearing browser cache/cookies/using private windows, and 3) using different login names. Anyone else?
Update: Rolled back to 2023.4.6-ls141 and it is working. It seems the latest has broken the onboarding process.
Hi, I am about to download the KVM image of Home Assistant, but cannot find any sha256/512 or even MD5 files to verify integrity with. Can I find those somewhere please?
On Github I find a .raucb file for each downloadable file, but how shall that be used? Please tell me the greatest home automation framework supports a way to verify file integrity... 🙂
Hi all, i install haos to VM Hyper-v. Connect to webpage, create user, fill country etc. And thats all. After new login i have only logo home assistant And that all
There's nothing
:/ Thanks I suppose... There should be imho
Do we know why there isn't a way to do this?
I don't think anybody's ever even raised a feature request for it
Ah, ok. I've seen a few questions, but that may be it. I'll think about it, shouldn't be too hard compared to all great magic dev's already do 🙂
Open a feature request (forum) or develop the required PR 😉
yeah so Im still tryin to do a x86 install, been going through a bunch of my old PCs but I cant seem to have em boot UEFI. They from 2013, thereabouts and just lack the feature. Any chance to make it run without UEFI? Will gladly take the performance hit
had it running through a VM til now but my windows keeps freezing
Install proxmox on it/them and virtualize HAOS
hi there
please guys i am stuck in the "preparing home assistant" tis can take 20 miutes
is there any guide for rockies in installing and run home assistant on a rasberry pi in youtube
What model of Pi, and is it using an SD card?
Have you tried using MQTT Explorer with the same information?
Is it connected?
It looks like it's working
What is it you're entering the details in that's not working?
Where?
In Home Assistant?
In some device?
Ok, check the log
If you're having problems with your updates to your configuration:
- Check the troubleshooting steps
- Check your log file - remembering you may need to set logger to
infoordebug - Explain what the problem you're having is - sharing configuration, errors, and logs
Weird... I take it that you don't already have MQTT configured in HA?
Well, you can't configure MQTT in YAML
In the UI, following the docs...
If you mean "UI" by menu then sure
Click the docs link in the bot message and follow the instructions
Where did you get that error?
Which container is throwing the error?
Check the configuration for it
To format your text as code, enter three backticks on the first line, press Shift+Enter for a new line, paste your code, press Enter again for another new line, and lastly three more backticks.
```yaml
example: here
```
Don't forget you can edit your post rather than repeatedly posting the same thing.
Do you have a config file at /opt/mosquitto/config/mosquitto.conf?
I would also have expected you to map /opt/mosquitto/config:/mosquitto/config
That's what their own docs show you should do
Try that, see if it fixes your error
No
- /opt/mosquitto:/mosquitto
``` ❌
Yes
Well... fix that 😉
Make sure the flie is there and it can read it
Using a linux distro was necessary was able to update petitboot
By default the mosquitto container runs as user 1883 - if that user can't access the folder or files it can't open the confiig file
You're running on Windows?
but thats what I said, it's already virtualized, do you think proxmox would make a difference over a VM? honest question.
for instance I did hear QEMU would be better than VirtualBox though (which is what I have it running on ATM) on account of the instructions being sent direct to kernel
Proxmox is simply for managing many VMs. There wouldn't be a difference i think
Personally I would choose qemu/kvm over virtualbox
Well I don't know why your windows froze. Proxmox's debian might work better for you
Proxmox needs about 1G for itself. How many resources does your host have?
Should be enough to run proxmox and a HAOS VM
No
gah
to go back to my initial question, any way for a generic x86 install to run without UEFI?
You can go the cursed supervised route but if you want to avoid linux that won't be what you want either
interesting
imma probably just buy a new pc at this point :))
but will look into what you said first, ofc
cheers
Hi guys, is it possible to restore a full backup of raspi 4 on a VM homeassistant which is hostet on qnap?
My Raspi is broken and now I'm looking for the easiest way to integrate all the stuff.
My first attempts fail. After the restore, the thing can be reached, but can no longer be reached via 8123 and firefox.
Yes, you can
At present i have Zigbee setup on my HA server using ZHA which connects to a Sonoff Wifi to Zigbee bridge which all works (can't use usb Zigbee as HA server is in loft and i have range issues with some devices) . i need to add Zigbee2MQTT for a keypad i want to install how do i go about this ?
You need a second coordinator if you want to run both. One with PoE so you can place it where needed might be a good idea.
Here's a list of supported ones: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/adapters/
i still have a sonoff usb ZBdongle-E plugged into my HA server which is the keypad will be with in range of or i also have a second Sonoff WiFi To Zigbee Bridge which i am not using. how do i go about install the Zigbee2MQTT
Depends on your setup. Check the docs. The E version is experimental in Z2M. Do not recommend
Any ideas on why this is failing? https://img.sticks.ovh/xMqhLDWiM
How and where is docker installed?
This is in a proxmox container. Ubuntu lts
I saw a few of those errors related to containers. My guess it's LXC related
Hi, I have a problem with the initial setup of HAss after I have installed a current docker container because I had to reinstall my raspi 3b.
When I do the initial setup and create my account, then confirm my location, then specify what data I want to share and click "next" I only have the "Homme Assistant" banner at the top, but the rest of the page is unfortunately empty.
I have already tried other browsers, other devices or even clearing the page cache. None of this has brought me a solution.
Does anyone have any ideas what I can change? I'm running out of ideas. Of course, I also rebuilt the Docker container a few times and deleted the entire config.
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/stuck-on-onboarding-html/567695/12 This is the latest workaround for that
The path will be different for your container, you'll need to go into .storage wherever your /config is mounted
i will try, thanks
big many thanks.... working rn
You might have to install bonjour if you're on windows. Mdns can be finicky
Well, that if you're still running it on Windows, host mode networking doesn't work
That's why the docs are quite clear that Docker on Windows isn't supported
Well... Docker on Windows isn't supported
It isn't going to work
Click the link in the channel topic, scroll down to Linux and read
Remember, WSL doesn't count
You need to run a VM, and install HA in the VM
i couldn't
That's too vague to help. Try again and ask us if you run into problems
Head... head fell off
hello 😅 I just upgraded to 2023.05.1 from 2023.05.0 and now al my tasmota devices are just rapidly cycling between Unknown/Unavailable/<actual state>. (e.g. when I look at the "Overview page) Is there something you can point me to where to look to debug this ?
oooow. the mqtt log is full of "Client <client id> disconnected due to malformed packet."
Hello. I am installing Home Assistant using docker...when going through the onboarding, I configure my location etc and click next, but the page seems to hang on the home assistant logo...I can't progress the installation anymore
Take a look at #installation-archived message
I have tried that but I don't then get the iintegration guided setup
is there a way to get that back? So it auto discovers my devices etc?
Just finish and go to Settings -> Devices & Services
Okay...is there a version tag I can use to use a working version until the issue is fixed ? Or is this the only workaround?
can try 2023.4.6
thanks
after initial setup I keep getting Error returned, (: System is not ready with state:Setup)
sad day
have fresh installed it several times and cant seem to get it working at all
i have installed hass inside home assistant container, but when I go to add the integration it says I can't do that from the GUI, I have to edit configuration.yaml manually, but nowhere I've found what to actually put in there 😦
it has a link to the documentation but that page doesn't actually mention anything about that
What integration?
Hi guys, need some help with my installation. I've been running HAOS for the past year without major problems. But after I applied an update the other day (I think that was for 23.5 version), ha won't start anymore. Seems like the entire web interface/service has gone bonkers. I can still ssh to the rpi where ha is installed, and I'd like to try restoring a backup from there. Can anyone guide me how to do it?
