Automation component fails after upgrade from 0.30 to 0.32.3

Archive All-In-One Installer
1

Upgraded last night from 0.30 to 0.32.3 using the manual instructions for All-In-One (Getting started - Home Assistant). This is my first time updating HA and … has not gone well for me :frowning:

After upgrading, things started falling apart. I received a message on the frontend that the automation component failed to initialize. From the log:
homeassistant.bootstrap: component automation failed to initialize

Played with my automation scripts a little to see if I could find an error with no success. This was all working on previous version of hass.

Relevant line in configuration.yaml looks like this:

automation: !include_dir_merge_list automation

automation directory currently only has one file: dooropen.yaml

dooropen.yaml:

    alias: DoorOpen
    trigger:
      platform: state
      entity_id: binary_sensor.schlage_ecolink_dwzwave1_sensor_4_0
      to: "on"
    action:
      service: notify.gmail
      data:
        title: "Someone is here"
        message: "Just sayin"
    hide_entity: true

Don’t know if it is related, but I am also seeing random Z-wave errors in the HA log. Doesn’t seem to effect the devices through hass, but I never saw these errors prior to upgrade:

Did you read the change log for 0.31? There are breaking changes for z-wave.

I had not before I ran the update. In hunting down the problem I did find I had to update the names of all my z-wave devices. This already been done in all my yaml files. Sorry, should have mentioned that in the original post.

I don’t know if that error message is directly related. I have been getting this message on start up since going to 32.x and yet all my ZWave devices are reporting correctly and any automations with using them are also working exactly as they should.

I’m still searching through Issues and PRs to see if this is being looked into.

I think this needs hyphens

- alias: Automation 1
  trigger: ......

- alias: Automation 2
  trigger:
    platform: state
    entity_id: binary_sensor.schlage_ecolink_dwzwave1_sensor_4_0
    to: 'on'

To use as is with no hyphen try !include_dir_merge_named automation

and each automation is in it’s own individual file in the folder with no hyphen.

automation1.yaml

alias: Automation 1
      trigger: ......

and
dooropen.yaml

alias: DoorOpen
trigger:
  platform: state
  entity_id: binary_sensor.schlage_ecolink_dwzwave1_sensor_4_0
  to: 'on'

Also, not sure if it matters but I think I read somewhere that I should use single quotes

to: 'on'

rather than

to: "on"

That was it Barry. Thank you!

I think in a recent update Hass started checking for errors like this and became a bit more strict about letting things slide, or perhaps that should be load. It probably would have failed prior to updating as soon as you had more automations in that folder.
