Cannot add Tradfri Gateway

Vans · February 7, 2018, 7:17pm

Hi,

I’m using HASSIO 0.62.1 and Im trying to configure IKEA Tradfri Gateway with latest firmware - 1.3.14

I’ve assigned static IP in the DHCP server for the gateway, configured the remote control and bulbs. Even got Alexa (Echo Dot) to work with it. I’m encountering problems connecting it to HA. I’ve tried rebooting HA, rebooting GW, resetting GW (both from iOS app and from reset button). Still no luck.

This is the HA log file:

2018-02-07 21:08:16 ERROR (MainThread) [coap] Exception CancelledError() can not be represented as errno, setting -1.

Also noticed that after hitting the ‘Configure’ button in HA and this is thrown at the logs, I cannot connect from iOS to GW. I’m succeeding after power-cycle the GW. I guess when I try to configure HA it is stalling the GW…

I am having exactly the same problem. Did you figure out a solution?

Vans · February 18, 2018, 9:11pm

Hi @alvar0rodrig0, sadly, I’m still unable to connect HA to Tradfri GW.
There is an update in the ‘pytradfri’ module on github (HA is using it in this plugin). If I’m not wrong HA is using version <4.something> of pytradfri and on github there is 5.3.1 and it says ‘NB: Latest Gateway version tested and working - 1.3.14’. So I guess it is a matter of time to be updated on HA.

Bumping the thread - still have the problem with Hass.IO 0.65.6 and Tradfri 1.3.14:

Vans · April 15, 2018, 7:32am

And again bumping because in latest Hass.IO - 0.67 there is ‘Update tradfri v5’ in the changelog but again receiving same error when entering security code and hitting ‘Submit’

Hi!

Got the same problem after HASS update. Did you get it working?

Reseting the gateway didnt fix it for me.

Vans · July 4, 2018, 11:48am

Hi, actually I’ve reset my Tradfri Gateway like 10 times - at one period it looked like bricked - keeped flashing and could not get network address. Left it like this for few days and almost forgot about it. Then one morning I had ‘Configure Tradfri’ in Home Assistant and since then it is working fine. But really cannot reproduce how it got fixed…

Just in case someone else is having issues with the discovery-based Tradfri setup, I managed to correct the problem as follows:

Log in to SSH
Navigate to /config
rm -rf .tradfri_psk.conf
Re-add security key in web UI. -> Profit.

Why this works? In my case I had tried doing the setup once and it didn’t seem to work. I then realized I had the gateway on a dynamic DHCP lease, and added a fixed IP on my router. This changed the IP, and caused the psk file to get all goofed up.

Solved [maybe]
see _https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2017/11/04/release-57/
my Tradfri Gateway has not updated, is version 1.0.0008 whereas the latest version is 1.4.15 (release v. 1.6.0)
so, maybe the new api calls are not in the older version(s) of the firmware, which would explain why the gateway won’t connect?
next problem - update the gateway, despite the version being very old, check for updates says up to date!

oldfart101 · August 8, 2018, 11:50am

Update of Tradfri gateway solved.
From phone app - clear all settings, that reboots the gateway.
Reset gateway (pin in top)
It updated (took about 10 mins)
then reinstall all devices.
Now up-to-date
And the configuration from the main screen of HA now works.
