Advanced SSH & Web Terminal init fail

Configuration
1

The Advanced SSH & Web Terminal is failing to start :frowning: it was working before and I can’t figure out what is wrong with init commands. Any suggest?

The Log:

Looks like you abused the SSH addon to increase the available swap space, for whatever reason?
Well, it fails…

@koying most people have a reason for increasing their swap space. Usually with many integrations, the default swap of HAOS does not suffice.

@knorst please post stuff like this in my thread for quicker help. The simple answer is the error clearly tells you what the problem is. Resource busy means take a reboot so it’s no longer busy. Secondly, you can try removing the entire INIT_COMMANDS line, take a reboot, DELETE that file and try again. Good luck!

I won’t enter that debate, but it’s more problematic when people forget or don’t realize that trick causes issues, like in this instance :wink:

Definitely won’t argue that… it’s obviously a workaround and I’m way more interested in an official way of controlling this. Sadly, the problem hasn’t gotten as much attention as it deserves. Older RPi 3 will choke running HAOS without this modification — having said that, even my virtual HAOS struggled with speed and crashes until this was introduced.
