AppDaemon had issues and restarted itself

Third party integrations AppDaemon

Has anyone seen AppDaemon do this? Yesterday when I got home, I noticed my outdoor lights were on in the daytime. This could only mean that my automations were not firing and all my automations are in AppDaemon. So I went and checked the logs, and it appears that appdaemon started getting errors prior to sunrise and fixed itself sometime around 3:35 pm.

Has anyone else seen this? What could have caused it. Unfortunately, I don’t have the logs from when the issue occured, only when it fixed itself:

It looks like it somehow lost credentials mid use?

Hello @petro,

It was not Appdaemon but Homeassistant.

For some reason it seems it could not connect to HA, and that’s when you began to get those errors. AppD did nothing wrong here :slight_smile:

That’s why this showed up

2018-07-24 17:34:58.802727 WARNING AppDaemon: HASS: Disconnected from Home Assistant, retrying in 5 seconds
2018-07-24 17:35:18.827817 WARNING AppDaemon: HASS: Disconnected from Home Assistant, retrying in 5 seconds

Then this

2018-07-24 17:35:58.907516 INFO AppDaemon: HASS: Connected to Home Assistant 0.74.0
2018-07-24 17:35:59.441563 INFO AppDaemon: Processing restart for HASS

i think that’s what was referenced here Appdeamon stopped working after duckdns cert auto updated

Regards

Right but the issues before hand occurred out of the blue. I understand why it restarted, i’m failing to understand why these errors occured for upwards of 12 hours when it was working find the night before.

requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 401 Client Error: Unauthorized for url: http://hassio/homeassistant/api/services/homeassistant/turn_off

Mind you, I had not restarted the system since last wednesday and these errors started occuring sometime overnight from monday to tuesday this week.

EDIT: These errors were causing all automations to fail for that duration.

Yeah they will fail.

I honestly have no clue about what’s making it behave weirdly. I don’t use Hass.io, so I am well ignorant of it to a good extent.

is it possible you updated anything within before these issues started? I know after the last Rasbian kernel update, it broke my docker containers and I had to re-install it. Now Hass.io doesn’t use Rasbian, but I don’t know if it could be linked in any way

Maybe @ReneTode could shed a few more light on this.

Regards

It’s likely that duckdns updated silently because duckdns addon is up to date, but I have appdaemon connected through a proxy so it shouldn’t have been affected by duckdns. And without config changes you can see it automatically reconnected and is working as intended.

6

Very good point.

Well at least its working now. but if I may ask, why go via a proxy between AppD and HA? Isn’t that just looking for trouble?

7

I’m doing that because I want to access HA from an outside source but I want my automations to work without needing internet.

8

Oh ok makes sense, should have figured that out.

Thanks for explaining :slight_smile:

this is what i see:

hassio has something called supervisor and that gets updated automaticly.
the update from supervisor did cause a problem with autentication for AD and node red.

some time ago i did see a simular thing happening, and from the conversation that followed i remember that there is no way to remove the auto update from supervisor.

if that is true i would advise people to get away from hassio when you can and dont want outside people to be able to cause trouble in your home. if it isnt true i would be glad to hear that, because it is a very bad thing in my eyes.

auto update is something you NEVER want in a homeautomation environment.
