oke, its not really my area of expertise, so i asked for the wrong thing :wink:
there were quite a few connection problems in this thread (and in the beta2 thread)
i suggest you start reading this thread from the top and see if there is 1 thing that complies to you too.
untill now all connectionproblems were solved. so unless you have a problem that is new, the answer should be there.

but please feel free to ask again if you still cant find it. even i cant provide the solution, someone else will :wink:

well so I read through the whole long thread. but the only real thing I could find was to downgrade aiohttp. Which I did but still the same problem. I’m also wondering why it takes so long to start up… couple of minutes on an RPI2.

And CPU utilisation remains low during those minutes so I suppose there is some kind of time-out happening.

However I’m making progress:

I enabled debug logging and get the following:

tail -f log.log

    os.makedirs(conf.compile_dir)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.4/os.py", line 227, in makedirs
    makedirs(head, mode, exist_ok)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.4/os.py", line 237, in makedirs
    mkdir(name, mode)
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'conf'

2017-05-08 14:17:53.520603 WARNING ------------------------------------------------------------

Although the configuration directory is writable. So I appdaemon is actually trying to write somewhere else

584

No I included the full path to the configuration directory and what I get is:

right, appdaemon tries to write the compiled files there.
so the downwards settings for the conf dir need to be writable for the appdaemon user.

586

yeah I figured. So now the mkdir problem is solved but and it seems appdaemon can write the compiled versions. But now it terminates with the above log.
appdaemon seems to be creating css and javascript in the compiled directory but those are empty. so I suppose the compilation might be failing?

587

at least you got a decent error now :wink:
to bad it is not an error i have seen before :wink:

i guess AD is trying to compile and that error makes it stop.
what did you change that it isnt retrying to connect?
or is this an reoccuring error?

588

It’s not reoccurring.

I called AD with the full config dir like so:

python3 -m appdaemon.appdaemon -d -c /home/homeassistant/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/

before I just used -c ./conf

589

now that you have set the right permissions try

python3 -m appdaemon.appdaemon -c conf
when you are in the dir
/home/homeassistant/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon

590

well the permissions were always right. I suppose however that the wrong directory was somehow tried writing to.

When I call AD like you suggested (python3 -m appdaemon.appdaemon -c conf I get the permission error again:

permissions seem oke.
you could try to run it with sudo, to see if it runs then.

592

i did some reading.
i use just -c conf but in the instructions andrew says pathtoconf
i looked back what you used and it could be the / at the end.

so you could also try:

python3 -m appdaemon.appdaemon -c /home/homeassistant/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf
593

Thanks a lot for all the help. But That does not change things. I have to stop for today. Will try more tomorrow…

All anyone has to do is give you a challenge and you find a way!

can you verify which user is being used when you try to start AppDaemon? There were a couple of things up there that made me wonder.

I was just about to paste that in!!

(BTW, you may want to edit the reference to ‘brightness’ in the docs.)

Nonsense! Everyone knows that brightness is a synonym for temperature!
