Cannot upgrade HA Core since 2023.1.15

akebono · March 13, 2024, 4:52pm

Hello! This is my first post. I’ve learned a lot reading the topics here and other information. I however cannot find an answer to my issue and I’ve been struggling for a while.

I am using a Raspberry PI 3B.
All updates went fine until recently and they still run OK for everything except the HA core. HAOS is also updating fine.
The update is listed as available and I have been trying for at least 20 times with or without creating backups, from the interface or from supervisor or the terminal add-on.

The update is starting and then it crashes.

I’ve been trying to fix errors, check which integrations could be preventing the update and I cannot figure it out.

I’ve also tried to take it to cmd line and do:
ha core info
ha core rebuild

ha core check
ha core update

I’ve found out that ha core check crashes every single time. Obviously ha core update crashes as well. Where should I look next?

There seems to be plenty of sd card space.

Here are the logs from the supervisor, as this is my first post I cannot post more information … it seems.

Should I try to find the corrupted backup file?

Thank you upfront!

Is your disk full ?

No, I’ve checked that already and posted above.

Hopefully someone will be along who can pinpoint the issue here - that first log doesn’t seem to be blocking anything, and that second one means nothing to me - only it seems to suggest it’s already closing down at that point.

But I do have one suggestion - have you considered running HA in docker?

I had a lot of issues updating HA a few years ago, mostly around incompatible python versions. I switched it to docker and I’ve not had a single upgrade issue since (other than feature and integration deprecations which were well communicated) I appreciate that’s not always something everyone wants to do, but it worked well for me.

Well, yes. Actually I was contemplating going with Proxmox on a NUC or HP Elitedesk, yet I had the RPI3B+ lying around and HA was entirely new for me. It still is, yet a lot of my house runs now through it: solar statistics, lights, central heating and hvac :). Maybe it’s time to consider something more powerful and stable. I am not too happy with so much logic running of an SD card :).

I’ve tried again a “ha core check”. There are a few issues that I am aware of:

ble monitor integration;
one ESPHome is annotating A for energy;

Could they be the culprit?

Then there are timeouts … this I cannot solve it seems.

This error is just a browser that stopped responding. It is an issue at the browsers end and not with HA as such.

WallyR · March 14, 2024, 9:09am

A Raspberry Pi 3 is quite limited on memory, so that might be it.
Try to stop all addons, if any, and then do the backup.

I tried that and it seems I got new errors. For some reason there still seems to be a reference to zigbee2mqtt, which I have removed some time ago. That generates an error in the update process, or so it seems. Thank you for the hint.

Later edit: Success! Thanks to WallyR’s suggestion I was able to proceed as indicated above, then I found out that the updated crashed over the repository from where I’ve installed zigbee2mqtt. I removed it from the repositories list and did a ha core update …

Thank you all for assisting!
