Hi everyone,
I’ve had a big problem with Home Assistant OS since the latest upgrade to core-2021.2.1
Some parts still work, but the core cannot finish starting up, it’s locked, and many plugins do not autostart & their features do not work anymore.
I’ve been looking into supervisor & host logs, but couldn’t find anything relevant to help fix the issue.
When I try to restart the core, it says:
21-02-07 22:16:59 ERROR (MainThread) [supervisor.utils] Can’t execute restart while a task is in progress
Even waiting 24h doesn’t help ; Many (cold & hot) restarts haven’t fixed a thing however, disconnecting USB devices & disabling some addons didn’t help, but I’m blind as to where to look.
I’ve also tried to do the “restart supervisor”, I get a simple warning about the core still starting up…
21-02-07 22:26:21 WARNING (MainThread) [supervisor.jobs] ‘Supervisor.restart’ blocked from execution, system is not running - CoreState.STARTUP
Do you have any clue of where to look to find which “task” is locked (in an addon or other) ?
I can provide logs from core & supervisor, but they only have seemingly benign warnings at most.
Thank you for your help !
PS. this is the standard [Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB and 8 GB model) 64-bit] installation from https://www.home-assistant.io/hassio/installation/, but it was updated, it has been working for almost a year, almost flawlessly before this incident.
PS2. For anyone still interested, I managed to fix it (at least for this HA version)
no errors logs pointed to any useful direction unfortunately.
I had to delete Zwave integrations, no “automated” transition could be done with the new Zwave (or Zwave JS) => recreating it manually worked well, and unlocked the “core starting problem” (didn’t even try to understand why in the current state of the solution…)
