Goal:
I need to restore stable access to my Home Assistant frontend. After the August update, HA works for 1-2 days then becomes inaccessible with 404 errors for all frontend files.
System Information:
Hardware: Dell R720 running Proxmox
HA Setup: Virtual Machine (4 CPU cores, 16GB RAM)
Access Methods: Both IP (192.168.0.101:8123) and homeassistant.local:8123 fail
Network: nginx URL redirect also stopped working
Problem Details:
The frontend becomes completely inaccessible with multiple 404 errors for core files:
GET http://homeassistant.local:8123/frontend_latest/core.bd9c1ce6d715c8c0.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)
GET http://homeassistant.local:8123/frontend_latest/app.f02cd80838f98ca8.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)
GET http://homeassistant.local:8123/static/translations/en-9f8bf7fa59c9365c18926c3480483dfb.json net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)
What I've Observed:
Issue started after August 2025 HA update
Works fine for 1-2 days after restart, then breaks
Both custom components (card-mod, dwains-dashboard) and core files affected
Backend seems to be running (VM is up and responsive)
Same 404 pattern occurs with both IP and .local access
What I've Tried:
