First time I’m installing HA, I can ping the IP but, on browser, either trying http://homeassistant.local:8123 or the ip returns
This site can’t be reached
homeassistant.local refused to connect.
cant find it either via the companion app, stuck on endles search

yup, no luck. observer is fine but not HA. running a x86 machine with usb-ethernet dongle if that matters.
cant find anything of help on the troubleshooting guide, and tbh i checked several threads before posting.
I cant see whats the problem, I can see the HA on my router devices list but cant access

Has this ever worked? I assume it’s not an update to latest 2024.12.x version which can exhibit exactly this issue and also you have no optional addons enabled?

Yes….I did read you’re post but I was double checking as there is an identical issue in 2024.12.x with some addons blocking the startup for web ui
I would suggest trying ‘safe mode’ but you won’t have SSH access
maybe that will work from the ha > prompt you have above.
ha core restart --safe-mode

returns “unknown error see supervisor”
I now tried on a mini pc and it’s working, tho I was hoping to repurpose that old notebook (still a 2015 i5 with 4gb ram)

usb-ethernet dongle
Something to do with that?
Of course, repurposing that laptop would be good and given that the battery is still OK-ish you get a UPS for free.

from your "ha > " prompt enter login, press return and enter the command
docker ps
Do you see the home assistant docker image running? It will have the version number in the name.
