Get HACS is displayed, now I should install it

#

now it is installed as an addon

novel dagger
#

it is not installed it installed an addon that will install HACS.

dry saffron
#

start now or not?

novel dagger
#

start it. then look at the logs tab

#

log should look like this.

#

log I can post like here?

novel dagger
#

did it show it succeeded?

#

toward then end of the log it will say INFO: Remember to restart Home Assistant before you configure it

#

so assuming all is good then reboot.

I assume PV is meant. Helping with a whole solar system would be a challenge shksKEKW

dry saffron
#

i know that the german language is more complex than english. That's why a lot of things are translated strangely.

#

i have found an alnleitung that i understand. but i don't understand ha well enough to understand or add the identities.

#

Does anyone understand that?

#

If I understand correctly, my PV system has interfaces that can be read out with the broker.

dry saffron

mqtt_broker_user: null
mqtt_broker_passwd: null

the two are still missing, if you can tell me how to fill it in, then it's already done 🫶

#

The credentials of your MQTT broker

dry saffron
#

and where can I find them?

tender wren
#

In the MQTT broker you have installed

yes, it's working. thanks

Hi all, I'm having trouble selecting my wifi adapter as being the primary/default adapter through UI/ha cli. I have ethernet connected to my regular LAN and Wifi connected to a dedicated IoT Wifi network. Through the UI the wifi adapter is not selectable as default and the ha cli does not seem to offer a method for switching default adapters, at least not that I can find. Any suggestions?

#

(I'm trying to get multicast traffic working this way)

slow dome
#

Just a follow-up, after removing the ethernet port and rebooting the wifi adapter becomes selectable

slow dome
#

And after plugging the ethernet port back in and rebooting, both adapters are selectable

#

Well, I'm biased, because I made it

#

But it only shows one install

It’s a trick question cuz the answer is yes but ya I just realized the other pic is showing the multiple installs per ‘circle’

I don't quite understand what they do there. Having HAOS and Generic Linux both seems like it covers OS and Supervised, but then the docker connection isn't quite right.

#

Yeah, I guessed

crude inlet
#

It used to say ResinOS

at one point

#

But how is the docker connection not right in either case?

ResinOS? damn

It both is and isn't.

I don't use it, but I understand it requires specific host software as well?

No. That's what makes "supervised" installs an issue

#

Heyy, back in the Day i make an home assistant account. I used 2 step verification. No after a few weeks and want to restart with HA but the 2step doesnt work anymore. Is it possible to reset my account and start over ?

#

With the same e- mail

crude inlet
#

@random ember 2FA is for the HA user accounts. There is no 2FA for the Nabu Casa cloud accounts if that is what you mean

#

Where are you having an issue?

jade spade
#

Hello. Now sure if right channel. I have my HA installed in Proxmox.

#

We had a power failure and server stopped.

#

When Proxmox came back all started but HA VM.

#

No error. Just time out.

#

I have done a full VM restore from last backup (one per day) and again that one doesn't start.

#

What would be best way to debug this? Currently I am thinking of fresh installation and restore from the night full backup.

crude inlet
#

@jade spade it is hard to debug "not starting". What are you referring to? The VM?

jade spade
#

Found it. Problem was with usb. If I remote usb device that I send to VM it will boot. But I have no ziggbe as I can not pass the zigbee dongle.

#

lsusb command on the server also freezes.

#

Now looking how to solve this.

#

Proxmox doesn't see any USB devices.

#

I do have USB HDD mounted and that one workes fine.

jade spade
#

Needed to upgrade proxmox. And restart it all again. It seems one of the kernel upgrades crashed the USB stack.

#

Now HA is back up and Zigbee2mqtt also.

#

If this helps someone...

wild garden
#

hi, can I install Home Asssitant on esxi 6.5 server without internet connection on vlan for HA?

crude inlet
#

@wild garden no. HA OS is going to need internet to download itself

#

And it will need internet to download any addons you might want, updates, etc. It is not a good install choice if you don't want to allow it access to the internet.

wild garden
crude inlet
#

@wild garden I do not.

glossy mason
#

My HAOS on RPI will not boot without a monitor attached to HDMI. This happened after an update. It was no issue for two years previous. If I try to boot without monitor, nothing happens. If I plug in hdmi the kernel immediately starts booting.

crude inlet
#

@glossy mason Are you using any external drive or other peripherals?

acoustic dirge
#

hey every one ive been messing with home assitant in a virtual box for a while. i just got my odroid n2+ from ameridroid with everything already installed. i didnt log in i just tried to load a partial back up. now i cant get in using my nabu casa or the ip or the home assistant.local. i plugged a monitor in and it is running i'd like o just reverse the back up...any one have any ideas?

glossy mason
crude inlet
#

@acoustic dirge the old IP address doesn't come over with a restore. Are you using the new one??

#

Or you could try homeassistant.local:8123

acoustic dirge
#

No idea at all what the problem was I finally learned how to refresh ha on it and started over. All good now

#

Reflash

#

I think I did the wrong partial backup and it wouldn't start up right

#

Now I'm having a blast fixing all the integrations that stopped working

grim onyx
#

I've flashed the latest HA OS image on an SSD but it's not recognized as a valid UEFI, bootable disk (not even listed). Anyone by any chance on a Fujitsu Esprimo q920 i5?

Hi

#

Can somebody help me?

#

How can I install Release 2021.6.6 - June 20 version?

grand pivot
#

Why would you want to install an 8 month old build?

zenith fog
#

Because I need exactly that build

#

For test at VM

#

I just can't find download link

grand pivot
#

Hmmm..ok

#

It depends on how you installed Home Assistant

zenith fog
#

Thanks I'll try

#

It's about update, I have no version installed now

#

I just don't understand how to install it. I am bad in Linux

grim onyx
#

I bet I found a Barebox corner case.

#

I repeated the same flashing several times. Same results. It’d be nice to have some debugging info from Barebox.

#

Also, having read about the future plans for Generic x86, I’m a little worried if it makes sense to continue to insist to have my HASS migrated to this “NUC” instead of leaving it to the RPi. The only reason why I’m migrating is that the “NUC” costed me as much (if not less) than the RPi + SSD + PWM + SSD expansion + case, which looks a bit like a patchwork, BTW.

crude inlet
#

@grim onyx which NUC is it? And where did you read about future plans?

crude inlet
#

That's "supervised" and generic linux

#

That's not the same

grim onyx
#

Ah. I figured I always confuse supervised vs OS

crude inlet
#

Generic Linux meaning, any random distro

grim onyx
#

Anyhow, I’m now determinated to fully debug this case, as I think it’s just a small bit in the Barebox part.

#

@crude inlet Any hints of what I could try, maybe change something in the “cmdline.txt” file under the barebox directory in the boot partition?

crude inlet
#

No idea. What's happening in the logs?

#

Oh no logs

#

I'd check BIOS I guess?

#

Is this a sata SSD?

grim onyx
#

Yes @crude inlet - SATA SSD, no logs. BIOS set to support both UEFI and Legacy (also tried UEFI only). Nothing else.

high token
#

and secure boot is disabled? Or not such an option?

grim onyx
#

@high token there is secure boot on the BIOS, but it’s disabled.

grim onyx
#

I’m thinking about booting off USB and keeping the SSD for the data partition.

manic bane
#

@grim onyx does the usb show up? Or does anything else installed on the ssd show up

Hi. I'm trying to figure out why my HA server sometimes going down. I think is after some power failure. Last time it ran about two months, current setup is Router LTE (TP-Link Archer mr200), Rpi4 + SSD , Haos.( But before it was Supervised+SSD, supervised+SD card and also collapsed). Last time it happened due to power failure, or internet failure, because my camera went unreachable also even with it's native app. Camera went back online , but the server didn't . I bring it to my home, connected to HDMI, and it started up (without any network connected) but I'm not sure, if it did it after i unplug SSD, booted Pi without any disc, and connected USB SSD back again.

#

Are there older logs saved somewhere? I think i saw them when I was digging through backup image some time ago

raw hedge
#

I ran hassos for a bit… keeps on going down so I switched back to raspberry os and good old docker

grim onyx
#

USB shows up correctly (tried with both HA OS, Ubuntu, and Win10x64 installer), but SSD only shows up and doesn’t boot (black screen).

left kraken
raw hedge
#

Does normal Debian work?

raw hedge

#

Maybe. Only difference between my instances is that crashing one has ESPHome and custom component called Tapo Camera

grim onyx
raw hedge
grim onyx
#

You mean not a live USB @raw hedge ?

raw hedge
#

Correct

grim onyx
# raw hedge Correct

I think the correct test is to install on the SSD (which HAOS doesn’t boot from) and see if Debian boots. Right?

raw hedge
#

Sure

grim onyx
#

Or maybe image the SSD with Debian’s live (not the installed Debian) and see if it boots?

raw hedge
#

Anything but haos

#

Do a install

high token
#

Might be worth trying another version of HAOS apart from latest as well

grim onyx
#

Win10x64 installs and boots fine, but that’s not Linux. Yes @high token I wanna try that one too.

raw hedge
#

Could be haos is missing some important driver

high token
#

But first try one of the stable versions

#

was it 7.2 you tried ?

Hi!

I'm just on my road to a fresh install. (My old backup & install got corrupted, so good time for a big cleanup). Only this time no smooth sailing 😦

I'm trying to re initiate my Zwave network.

upon adding the "Zwave JS" intergration, i get a "Failed to connect". Though the zwavejs add-in is looks working.

Cant find any good logging, where should i start looking?

Please use a code share site to share code or logs, for example:

Please don't use Pastebin, since it can randomly add spaces to the main view. Please also don't share text as images since it makes it harder for people to help you. Remember that others may have colour blindness, impaired vision, etc.

Hi! Dump question. How I install older core version on dashboard?

nocturne orbit
#

do you know how to fix it?

#

in integration

meager rover
#

Thanks!

#

Okay, only way is via CLI.

nocturne orbit
#

and how i can do that without supervisor?

meager rover
#

Btw... I had same problem. 2022.2.9 got stuck on startup...

#

I run it on VirtualBox (Mac Mini).

nocturne orbit
#

ok i'm not alone

#

so we can just do a recovery

#

from 2022.2.8 or older

#

because without supervisor we can't install older update

#

no?

humble mirage
#

Yes you can

#

You just follow the instructions for your install method

meager rover
#

2022.2.0 works like a charm... now I try to jump 2022.2.8

#

It seems to work also.

#

So 2022.2.9 is the problem.

abstract hearthBOT
#

Want to see what issues are open (or were open and are now closed)?

Don't forget to check for any alerts

If you think an upgrade broke something then:

  1. Downgrade to the previous version to check if it works correctly there
  2. If it does then change the logger settings for that integration to debug
  3. Upgrade to the new version again
  4. Look in the logs for errors
  5. Open an issue, following the template provided and including the log information

Hi everybody. I've searched online and can't seem to solve my error so here I come!

  • I'm running HA:latest through Docker on TrueNAS Scale (debian)
  • I'm using network_mode: host and privileged: true as recommended and no other particular settings

Then when booting, I get the following error:

  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/zeroconf/_utils/net.py", line 248, in new_socket
    s.bind(bind_tup)
OSError: [Errno 98] Address in use

I have tried pruning networks, checking the ports, and nothing pops up

rough falcon
#

Did you install Home Assistant using TrueCharts?

leaden crane
#

No, directly using docker compose

#

Easier to handle bind mounts and such that way

rough falcon
#

I'm doing the same thing... I have it working using macvlan so I could assign IP addresses matching my previous jails

#

that is macvlan and NO network_mode: host

leaden crane
#

Using TrueNAS Scale though so there's no jails or anything, it'l really just raw docker

rough falcon
#

I know, I switched from CORE to SCALE -- Sorry I didn't mean to confuse the issue

#

But I'm using docker-compose on SCALE as well

leaden crane
#

Ah ok, so what exactly should I do there? Haven't looked at macvlan networks ever actually despite using docker daily 😅

rough falcon
#

I'm not an expert but it was just an entry in my compose file

leaden crane
#

Looking at this it looks like macvlan should actually be the recommended way to use Docker + HA since HA expects a lot of freedom in how it attributes ports and listens

rough falcon
#

Glad I can help

jolly talon
#

Anyone here have Home Assistant installed on UnRaid? I'm trying to decide between installing it on my existing UnRaid machine vs buying a RPi and installing it there. If you did it on UnRaid, did you do the docker method or a VM? I'd be curious to hear the benefits of each installation approach.

manic bane
#

Recommend trying to use unraid rather than a RPi, the latter is unreliable

uncut dove
crude inlet
#

@jolly talon the unraid app store can replace the supervisor addon store. Otherwise, you can run a VM

jolly talon
crude inlet
#

@jolly talon I'd say yes.

Well, i can't reproduce my issue at home. Tried to suddenly power off, then restart , restart without working network and reconnect it later, always goes fine

mental merlin

oh noooo, they unify all installations 🙂 that means docker install is the same as os install? mindblown

placid sage

I installed HASSIO from an standard rpi image. Hoe can I get SSH access outside of the docker to the underlying system?

You don't, not really

Why do you want that?

mental merlin
humble mirage
#

Well, not really, the thing that was called hassio years ago does use Docker

sonic tundra
#

My Home Assistant observer states my host as "Unhealthy". According to https://www.home-assistant.io/more-info/unsupported/software I should see which container is responsible for this in the supervisor log, but I don't see a related log entry in my supervisor log... Does somebody know how this would look like?

#

Is there like a blacklist of containers somewhere?

high token
#

Apart form Observer, has the Supervisor itself marked your installatio unhealthy?

sonic tundra
#

no! Just unsupported

#

I didn't know there was a difference

high token
#

But I mean you have that there right?

#

Not just in Observer

#

and that buttton took you to that link?

sonic tundra
#

So my observer looks like this:
Supported: Unsupported
Healthy: Unhealthy
I'm running some third party containers, so I get the "Unsupported" part and it's visible in my System overview (https://hassio.local/hassio/system) too
But the "Unhealthy" status is not visible in my System overview and I don't understand why it's there

drowsy briar
sonic tundra
drowsy briar
high token
#

If you click on Learn More on the Unheatlhy message it should tell you exactly the reason it thinks it's unhealthy

#

same way it tells you for the unsupported

sonic tundra
#

I think I got the symptom but not the source: every time I visit the observer page I get a “ERROR (MainThread) [supervisor.api.middleware.security] Invalid token for access /supervisor/info” message

high token
#

That's why I asked earlier if you only say Unhealthy in Observer or also in Supervisor

sonic tundra

#

@sonic tundra try ha core rebuild

sonic tundra
high token
#

I also have that one too actually

grim onyx
#

Now I'm going to check wether Debian has been installed as Legacy or UEFI.

#

@raw hedge @high token looks like the Debian has been installed as "legacy" as I don't see any EFI partion.

#

So, no wonder why it boots fine.

#

Now flashing Debian mini.iso to the SSD - let's see if the live boots fine from it.

#

Yes, SSD boots fine (but it seems because it's in BIOS mode).

high token
#

BIOS mode?

#

Hi, I have a MiniPC dedicated to run HA and other self hosted tools. I've it installed as a container. Is the VM version (OS) better than the container?

humble mirage
#

It's different

#

That's like asking if a blue car is better than a green one

#

||Clearly the red car is better||

#

HAOS gives you add-ons, for installing software through HA's UI, and backups that stay on the computer by default (so not really backups)

mild quail
#

yes, got it. It's basically everything I do with several containers in a single VM

#

I think my concern is about the VM. Since I already need docker for my other things (self hosted stuff), makes sense to run a VM for HAOS, or continue manually maintaining docker is fine?

humble mirage
#

If you already use Docker, continuing to use Docker makes sense

mild quail
#

it's really tempting to have everything in one place and updates directly from within HA, but yes, it requires a new setup

high token
#

unless what your self hosted stuff already exist as addons

mild quail
#

well not everything, I have several custom things in containers

fervent coyote
#

Hey all, question. I'm running an ESXi environment and was planning on just spinning up another VM to setup core... I'm not too familiar with containers and such, is there really any huge benefit to doing docker in this kind of scenario?

humble mirage
#

Not having to install Python from source every other year

#

If you have the skills to run a Core install then Docker is slightly more convenient since you don't have to worry about Python ever again

fervent coyote
#

Hmm

#

Why is that the case? Is it in the docker image or something?

humble mirage
#

Yup

#

So when Python 3.9 is dropped in another 10 months, you don't have to care since the Docker image will be using 3.10

#

Repeat every December

fervent coyote
#

Hmm ok

#

I suppose I could give it a try

humble mirage
#

Docker is awesome

fervent coyote
#

Yeah, I figure... I guess my hesitation is I don't have any experience in it, and I suppose I could start here

humble mirage
#

If you're already at home on Linux then it's pretty easy to learn to use

#

Just ... use Compose and save yourself pain

merry galleon
#

It will definitely be easier than the VM complexities....the only think you lose is addons with Docker

humble mirage
#

"lose"

#

So you have to add a few more lines to your compose file instead... the hardship

merry galleon
#

still not as easy as having those addons 😜

#

but agree with you. I started with docker cli, but will move to compose and also change the paths so everything can be easily backup

fervent coyote
#

I can run docker on the ESXi, right?

#

or is Docker a hypervisor?

humble mirage
#

No, Docker runs on an OS and does "partitions" of the OS

#

(known as containers)

fervent coyote
#

I mean, I could just spin up a VM with ubuntu server and install docker though, no?

humble mirage
#

Yes

#

Though most of us would suggest Debian over Ubuntu, for stability over bleeding edge

fervent coyote
#

Yall taking me out of my comfort zone. I love it, and I hate it.

#

Though Debian shouldn't be too different

humble mirage
#

It's very similar, just with more sensible policies for servers

ruby patrol
#

I am looking to run Mosquitto broker on Home Assistant running in Docker (on Synology), but it appears I can not run a Supervisor version. Any help?

humble mirage
#

Just spin it up in another container

Got it, I grabbed the eclipse-mosquitto container.

#

I'm super noob and am unsure of the next steps.

placid sage
# mental merlin is is hassio or docker? because those two kinda contradict

I think I installed hassio (haos_rpi3-64-7.4 image) I disabled 'protection mode' from the ssh add-on, but the shell is still a shell inside a container. My HA seemed sluggish, so I wanted to look under the hood and because I am not used to containerized systems I do not trust the numbers I see inside the container.

mental merlin
#

@placid sagetbh i know nothing about hasio my best guess is a hole operating system that if doesnt have ssh open you can do nothing

#

i use docker only

#

docker is easy for me

#

and i can ssh into it if necessary

crude inlet
#

@placid sage protection mode doesn't determine that. It's still a container. You can setup ssh to the host system using the dev docs.

Questions about getting a bluetooth stick to work on the HA blue. Is this the right channel?

This is awesome. Same physical SSD, flashed with HA OS 7.4 x86-64. Hooked to the internal SSD port -> doesn't boot. Hooked with a USB adapter -> boots. 😱

@haughty matrix Are you using docker?

#

you may have to update mutidict manually.

haughty matrix
merry galleon
#

pip3 install --upgrade multidict

haughty matrix
merry galleon
#

yes

#

terminal

#

how did you install HA?

haughty matrix
#

running supervised in a VM

merry galleon
#

I do not have much experience with supervised, but do have access to terminal?

haughty matrix
#

yes

#

i have a cursor after [core-ssh ~]$

merry galleon
#

try that command

high token
#

[core-ssh ~]$ that sounds like the SSH addon. You'd just be installing multdict inside the SSH container

haughty matrix
#

ill have to hook up a screen to the pc i have the vm running on to get to the actual terminal screen.. will report back

crude inlet
#

@haughty matrix I would skip the config check addon. If updating fails or breaks things, then fix things. If you can't fix things, roll back to previous version

that is the default connection name, yeah

you don't see others if you use nmcli con show ?

Hey everyone, Can someone link me to a good quality touch screen display aroun 8-11 inches for Raspberry Pi 4?

#

hmm, when I type print on nmcli the ipv4 entry I'm looking for scrolls up too far on the screen and I don't know how to scroll it back down to see

#

...okay so it did take, I just couldn't see it

crude inlet
#

@sand plover HA OS doesn't have any UI to display on it if that's your intent

#

You're better off using such a screen on another separate pi, which connects to your HA install

#

@bronze stream is it connecting successfully now?

sand plover
#

Oh, i cant paste a photo

#

Isnt the frontend a HUB style display?

crude inlet
#

@sand plover it's a server with a frontend that your reach from any browser on another device

sand plover
#

@crude inlet So can’t I connect a display to my raspberry pi which is also running HA & go to the local host from the browser?

#

Sorry I’m pretty damn new lol.

crude inlet
#

@sand plover not using HA OS. It is a headless hub.

sand plover
#

@crude inlet thanks, so what should I use?

humble mirage
#

For a Pi acting as a display, Raspberry Pi OS is hard to go wrong with

sand plover
#

Ok so I need two raspberry pi’s? One to run HS & one to actually run the front end?

humble mirage
#

Well, one to run HA and one to display the front end

sand plover
#

HA* that’s a typo yep

humble mirage
#

It's a web service, so any web browser is all you need

sand plover
#

But shouldn’t run the browser off the same pi running HA?

humble mirage
#

You can't if you use Home Assistant OS

sand plover
#

Oh gotcha

humble mirage
#

(or Supervised, but nobody should use htat)

#

Think of HA like a server, since it is, there's no local UI

sand plover
#

Understood. So if I want to create a HUB for my new house, I should buy two raspberry pi’s and just fit them both to the back of the display I want?

humble mirage
#

Well, you fit the one that drives the display there

#

Not the one that runs HA, that goes somewhere sensible

sand plover
#

True, like beside my modem or something hey

Hi, I currently have HA running on my desktop but wanting to move to a Pi. I have a Pi Model 2+ available. Is it possible to get Supervised running on it or will I have to get a Pi 3 or 4?

humble mirage
#

Supervised is a terrible idea

#

HAOS will work, but it's not exactly going to perform well

#

A Pi3 or better is advised, and really if you're buying new then buy at least a Pi4

coral lily
#

Excuse my ignorance but why is Supervised a bad idea? I Can't get a Pi4 at the moment as they all seem to be sold out. Pi3 is possible though.

humble mirage
#

Because it requires you to manage a Debian install to a very specific set of requirements

#

If you run HAOS then the OS is managed for you, and if you run Container then you can do what you want

#

Supervised is a tightrope

#

(and a trap)

coral lily
#

Gotcha. I may tinker with HAOS on the Pi2 and see how it performs. Would it be the Pi3 version to download for installation?

humble mirage
#

There's a Pi2 version on GitHub

coral lily
#

Excellent...found it. Thanks 👍

humble mirage

Do expect the initial setup/install to take a while, maybe an hour or so

I want to forward 8123 to my pi running HASSIO so I can tinker with it when I am not home. I am trying to gauge the safety risk, but I am pretty new to HA. How solid is the HA track record?

humble mirage
#

HA itself is mostly fine, the weak point is usually the end user

#

If you have a strong password and MFA then the risks are minimal. Even if you don't have MFA the risks aren't high if you're using a strong password (and not naming your account something obvious).

placid sage
#

Always strong passwords, always 2FA when available. my 1password contains over 1600 items. I have had it for very long

#

thanks for the link

jade apex
#

If you want to secure it further you can A) run a VPN such as WireGuard B) limit access by host/ip through a reverse proxy like Nginx C) some modern routers allow a limit on source connection by IP before forwarding to a destination port

That would be a problem for sure.

Can somebody help me with a couple of points regarding HAOS?
I have a dedicated machine (Intel Atom E3950 based fitlet2) and right away I noticed that Haos fails to boot if I install it on SD card (it fails somewhere in the middle of device initialization). Other Linux distributions work just fine, like Ubuntu or OpenSuse.
And if I install it on a USB drive then Haos does not use Intel P-state active governor - even though it is the default behaviour for other distributions.

#

How can I fix these things?

crude inlet
#

This isn't a traditional distro, but an embedded OS targeted at particular boards. If the generic image isn't generic enough for <random mini pc device> then there is probably something that needs to be added in order to support it.

leaden quest
#

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to add anything into this image. And what exactly to add....
It uses intel_pstate driver, but it just does not set it active due to some reason.

So, I can't use File Editor anymore. I know this is an addon and should probably be posted to the according channel, but I feel like this is more of a docker (or connection?) Issue (tinkerer asked me to post here):

Can't install homeassistant/aarch64-addon-configurator:5.3.3: 500 Server Error for http+docker://localhost/v1.41/images/homeassistant/aarch64-addon-configurator:5.3.3/json: Internal Server Error ("layer does not exist")

Is this somehow known and I've missed it? Searched the forum and found the ha supervisor repair command, but that didn't solve anything.
Also, the only thing happening was a restart of the host (via settings, not via unplugging power)

HA OS 2022.2.9 running on a raspi 4

did you restart the host after removing file-editor?

Actually yes, for basic troubleshooting I did that

This is actually the output when trying to install it after host restart

Doesn't mean much, you can get a dead SD card in hours

I mean, it's possible and I am open to check but I would be dumbfounded

I would try reflashing and restore. Faster than trying a fix

That's the way to do it

you can have a bad sd anyway, this just makes it fail even faster

Okay I'll check.. uhmm, stupid question and probably out of scope, but how exactly would I check SD card health?

It's not like those things have S.M.A.R.T.

crude inlet

I just keep a handful at the ready. Whether it is HA or camera storage or whatever...they go bad and I don't bother looking into it. Stuff starts halfway working and behaving erratically. Even if you reformat one and it seems to work, it will likely stop working again soon

#

Once I moved away from the RP3 and used just about any other install method (yeah even the one that you shouldn't run) and hardware, I was free of the power and SD issues

Hey friends - if anyone has a second, was pointed here by Tinkerer for an issue I'm having with my file system - here's the original message I sent - thanks in advance!

Hey ya'll - can anyone point me to some literature on the file system hass.io os is built on? After reflashing, starting fresh and setting everything back up, I randomly got some notifications when I tried to edit my configuraiton.yaml that the file-system was read-only and I couldn't make changes - restarted core and then couldn't reconnect, but ssh was still up so I restarted the host and the entire pi went offline - are there any tools to diagnose/verify the file-system from OSX? Don't have the means to plugin a monitor to the pi currently, but I can go that route if it's necessary.

yeah

Have you checked that you're using the right IP?

Why not linux + docker

vivid nacelle

I'm not overly familiar with dockers. I suppose I could go that route.

if you don't know what you're doing nor do you want things that aren't available as addon, you should go with HAOS

I am familiar with linux mint and raspbian.

Both are debian derivatives.

Morning guys, i'm sure ive already asked this before i think. At the moment im running a beautiful server that does exactly what we want/need. But, in the future we are going to move to a new house, there will be some camera's involved etc, so i expect a bit more load on the server.

Right now i run a i5 7400, 8gb ram and 10tb (raid0) headless ubuntu server.

Is it (at al possible) to migrate this whole system to a new computer? And how would one go about this?

#

@vast turtle I assume HA Container then?

#

copying over everything from /config including all hidden files (.storage) is the way

If I plan to start running HA and Frigate on my UnRaid server, what installation method would you recommend? Would I be able to set up an HAOS VM, and just run Frigate within that? Or would Frigate want to be separately run in a docker container or something?

placid sage
#

Hello all,

Is there a way to stop all HA operations so that I can safely export a backup to migrate from my Pi to a VM? Every time I try, the database is corrupted after importing the backup to the new HAOS.
I assume this is because the database file changes while the backup is being created. Can I prevent this somehow?

#

Also just in case. I have been reading it is not possible. But if I would take this migration as an opportunity to switch to MARIADB as the database, I guess there is no way I can keep my past sensor data? Like room temperature, humidity sensors, etc?

would it be better to use the rpi

#

i could try and setup pihole on fedora

#

which would be better do you think?

#

like i know you probably dont have a lot of information to give an answer

#

but like

#

guess

#

idk

low notch
#

depends on <server> details

open hull
#

wdym

#

like

#

fedora's specs

#

here lets refer to fedora server as "fedora" and the rpi as "rpi"

low notch
#

what versio rpi? what cpu? how much memory?

#

you dont need a new line for each word

open hull
#

oh alright my bad i just talk like that sometimes its a bad habit lol

#

im sorry

#

and the rpi is a 4b 4gb ram

#

fedora has an intel i5-3470 14gb ram

#

and i would do usb boot if i did rpi

#

sd card boot is slow

low notch
#

both can run pihole and homeassistant

open hull
#

yea

low notch
#

please. stop with the newlines

open hull
#

sorry

grand pivot
#

I was enjoying the haikus

open hull
#

lets try one message. what im asking is which would be better to run homeassistant on, should i run it on fedora server or should i run it on the rpi. would docker be a pain? i dont like docker all that much

#

i do need to learn docker eventually though

buoyant yarrow
#

I run Fedora Server 35 on a Pi4 with an external SSD for my zwave server. Seems to run fine.

low notch
#

run it on fedora. you can try migrating to pi and see if the performance is alright for you afterwards

buoyant yarrow
#

Running the pihole container (podman is preferred over docker for Fedora) is the recommended method for Fedora, but I've never tried it.

open hull
open hull
low notch
#

docker-compose, use it. look up how to use it. love it.

buoyant yarrow
#

No, I only run a zwave server on it. I wanted it centrally-located.

open hull
#

its been awhile since ive messed with it lol

buoyant yarrow
#

podman commands are almost identical to docker. works with docker container images

open hull
#

alright

#

thanks!

buoyant yarrow
open hull
#

thank you

#

again

buoyant yarrow
#

but as I said before, I have tried pihole

#

haven't

open hull
#

i would reccommend it, more for the local dns rules and stuff than actual ad blocking

#

although ad blocking is very nice

Sorry no have zero experience with unraid

#

I run on a separate machine just Debian and there all docker containers I want including Frigate

#

then HAOS is on each own hardware. Currently on a RPi4

#

I suppose that's also an option

#

I always prefer not to do that

vast turtle
#

I see…. Hmmmm

high token
#

but also I never needed to do that either

#

aren't you anyway only changing to a better CPU or?

vast turtle
#

Well, cpu would do the job. It’s just the motherboard that’s really limiting. But I’m also reading about pci cards that give me more sataports. In that case I could very well just only upgrade the cpu

high token
#

if you aren't changing to another drive then there's nothing to clone to 😛

vast turtle
#

Well I was having wild ideas of cloning from ssd to m.2

#

But i suppose I could spare myself the headache and just only exchange the cpu

jolly talon
high token
#

Nothing crazy really

#

an SSD with the OS and therefore docker

#

and just pointing Frigate's data folder to a 4TB HDD attached to it

jolly talon
#

I see. In my case, I have an overspec'd unraid server that runs all my dockers right now. It has enough horsepower to throw HA and Frigate both on it (either as containers or inside a VM). Unless there is a reason why I'd want to invest in separate hardware to fragment things out

high token
#

Well no in that case it's more than enough

#

I don't have enough power on one machine to run everything together

jolly talon
#

I see. In my case where power is not a limiter, which installation approach of HA and Frigate do you think would give me the least amount of problems on the software/setup side of things?

#

i.e. a VM containing both, a mix of docker containers and VM, or all docker containers, etc.

crude inlet
#

A VM would in a sense extend it further. You would have the addon store from HAOS in addition to the app store of unraid.

#

They are both templated docker "app stores"

#

But really it's just about whatever works best for you

low notch
#

If you are capable in running containers all you need is docker imo

#

i even use docker to control my kvm‘s

Good morning, I am having an issue with my Home-Assistant installation which leads to the situation, that I only have the file system left. The underlying OS is not working anymore. I am using hassos and I was asking myself, due to the fact that my scheduled backups did not work, how to get the latest settings and maybe images from this drive. Is that possible?

#

I have for example a volume "hassos-data", "hassos-overlay" etc.

#

your data would be in hassos-data

Hello all, my updater entity says there is a new update and the
config/info page says my version is: Home Assistant 2021.11.5

#

i'm on raspberry pi 3

high token
#

docker pull alone will not actually install anything though right?

#

I could run multiple docker pulls of images and all say they're up to date. But that refers to the pull

covert granite
#

nevermind i figured it out, i'm actually using raspberrypi3-homeassistant:stable

#

but i was checking for homeassistant:stable

high token
#

I'm only just using homeassistant/home-assistant:stable

covert granite
#

is it save to use on raspberry pi 3? what are the differences?

high token
#

biggest difference is whether you pull from ghcr or from dockerhub if you'll be specifying that in the beginning

#

the other part it's just letting it work out the hardware itself I guess

#

you're explicitly telling it to grab the rpi3 image when you pull

glass bobcat
high token
#

yeah /mnt is if you're doing it on linux

#

but the path is the same

#

for the folders

#

in the homeassistant folder you'll find your config files

#

if you have backups you want to get too those are in the previous folder

if not I would take the backup file so you at least can easily restore all your addons at once even if slightly outdated

Hello guys, Is it possible in any way to install HA Supervised (instead of CORE) on a TrueNAS server?

#

Should I install docker on my TrueNAS server and use the docker installation documentation? Or this just wont work too??

#

Thanks!

brazen herald
#

I would always recommend Docker over Supervised.

winter summit
brazen herald
#

It depends on what you do, but if you set up docker now you can use it for the myriad of other things you will also need at some point.

#

Supervised is only supported on vanilla Debian, so it’s highly likely you’d end up with an unsupported situation making life much more difficult and bug prone. But it’s your choice.

crude inlet
#

@winter summit HAOS is an ecosystem which comes with docker and everything runs in containers. "Supervised" is a copy of that ecosystem on a different OS (Debian for supported status).

A vanilla docker install of HA is better because it is simple to update, supported, and you manage your own docker containers.

Maybe this question does belong here:
I have 2 VM's with HAOS. One of them gave me an update notification for Core and OS. One I updated and it's running HAOS 7.4 now. The other one is still running HAOS 7.1. But there is nowl update notification. Can I force the update somehow?

Hello, I am having issues with the supervisor on my HA OS install on rpi3. The panel won't load.
This morning I noticed because the zigbee lights didn't turn on. (deCONZ)
The observer shows that it's all good, but the system health won't show the health. I can access the system via SSH and tried the repair, that succeeds, but doesn't fix it. A reboot helps, temporarily.
This afternoon it happened again, so I downgraded HA OS because that's the most recent upgrade I did.
Unfortunately it happened again, just now, with HA OS 7.1 (before was 7.4)

hi

#

i plan to do the following:

#

i want to use 2 zigbee coordinator usb sticks at 2 buildings

#

but i want just one frontend.

#

i will install one raspi with hasos, one stick and just z2m configured to use the mosquitto ob the main installation

#

is that possible?

#

what do i have to change (exept the url of the mqtt server)?

#

will the zigbee devices of the 2nd installation automatically appear in the main view of the main installation?

#

@halcyon whale It should work just like any other container really. What network setting are you using?

#

And are you forwarding to port 8123?

halcyon whale
#

i have a static IP from my ISP

#

no im not forwarding port 8123 since im using nginx proxy manager it forward through 80 443

#

i tried forwarding 8123 but it didnt work either

steel sky
#

I mean network setting for the HA container. network: host is recommended, but that can mess with some proxies sometimes.

halcyon whale
#

yes network host

#

its the setting im using

#

i tried setting up swag but was unsuccesfull

#

im also using cloudflare

#

as dns provider and domain

steel sky
#

I mean making sure nginx forwards 80/443 to port 8123 on the container

halcyon whale
#

Yes that i made sure off in the nginx proxy configurration i forwarded the local ip address of the pi to 8123

#

i did the exact same configuration i did for nextcloud omv and portainer for remote access, all work fine except for home assistant

steel sky
halcyon whale
#

Should i change anything in the configuration.yaml file or something? even on the home assistant UI i changed the external url

#

but didnt work

halcyon whale
#

http:
use_x_forwarded_for: true
trusted_proxies:
- 10.0.0.200 # Add the IP address of the proxy server
- 172.30.33.0/24 # You may also provide the subnet mask

@steel sky what exactly should i populate in the ip address of the proxy server? my static ip provided by isp ?

#

or the network ip on the rpi?

#

in portainer?

high token
#

@halcyon whale the IP of the proxy manager

#

172.30.33.0/24 this would be if you were running HAOS where the proxy has an internal docker IP

#

in your case I don't know what it would be

halcyon whale
#

Im not running HAOS, im running bullseye with portainer and docker

#

nothing seems to work, is there any step by step guide ?

orchid pebble
#

Use the lan ip for it instead

crude inlet
#

Is that 10.0.0.200?

halcyon whale
#

proxy manager on docker also

#

172.0.0.11 is my proxy manager ip

#

tried it ddnt work

crude inlet
#

That's what the config needs. None of the others.

#

Can you share the http: config with formatting?

I just blew everything up and my pi is no longer booting im going for a fresh install

once i have it up and running will share with u

Hi, I have been moving over my home assistant install from Docker to a HAOS install on kvm. I have installed and have been trying to get networking working. I created a NAT on the kvm which forwards to a bridge on my host device that includes my ethernet adapter. Everything looks good from the ha cli with network info showing everything. I am still unable to access from a separate device on local network. The host machine running the kvm is able to ping homeassistant.local but other devices say unknown host. Any ideas on how to access from devices on network?

humble mirage
#

What about using the LAN IP, does that work?

distant cobalt
#

As far as I can tell, using the ipv4 ip from "network info" on HA cli does not work and using the ip from host machine does not work.

humble mirage
#

Are they on the same subnet?

#

You didn't end up creating a separate subnet, but actually correctly bridged the adapter?

distant cobalt
#

It does look like they are on different subnets.
Host machine ip: 192.168.0.24
kvm haos ip: 192.168.90.157

humble mirage
#

Yeah, so you need to fix that

#

Once you do that should solve your problem

#

Thanks! I'll go redo bridges

Hi everybody, im trying to get my home assistant running on virtualbox over to a wired ethernet connection from wifi. But after i changed it, i dont get a ipv4 address in the commandline window. And i also cant get up and running on wifi anymore when i try to go back.
Anybody that maybe have seen the same?

low notch
#

your host is on wifi?

boreal pilot
#

No, it is wired right now.

low notch
#

whats the issue then?

#

bridging a wifi host is not trivial, stick to wired

boreal pilot
#

When i write nmcli in cmd, i get that enp0s3 (my wired connection) is disconnected.

low notch
#

check virtualbox settings?

boreal pilot
#

I did, its in bridged mode, name is eno1 which is the wired connection, adapter type is intel pro/100 mt desktop promiscuous mode = allow VMs, cable connected checked.
It worked 4 hours ago, when it were on wifi...
