Cant get esphome to load, defaults to nothing

[david1 (David)]

i see it try to load, but nothing shows up to add a device…

i followed this guide, Getting Started with ESPHome and Home Assistant — ESPHome

i dont have any esp.yaml files created… per the guide it didnt mention one? can someone help please!!!

id like to be able to load a esp32 device from here to try their version of esppresence

Go to Configuration → Addons, Backup & Supervisor, then to the ESPHome addon page.

Is it started?

[david1 (David)]

i think so!

[tom_l]

Yes, that’s started. Does clicking on the OPEN WEB UI link take you to the same blank page?

[david1 (David)]

yes! Appreciate the response, but just to make sure i dont need any sort of esphome.yaml file right? according to the documentation its not listed as a requirement…

[tom_l]

It may be a bug that prevents the page loading if there are no device config files. Try adding this to a new file called config/esphome/test.yaml

esphome:
  name: test
  platform: ESP8266
  board: d1_mini

wifi:
  ssid: your_ssid_here
  password: your_wifi_password_here

api:

logger:

ota:

See if having that file in your esphome folder helps.

[tom_l]

Go to your Supervisor addon store repositories and delete the duplicate repositories for ESPHome, leaving only one.

uninstalled both, restarted and reinstalled one of them, no go

You appear to be running an unsupported supervised install. Only Debian is supported. Not Ubuntu.

[david1 (David)]

damn, can i migrat this over?

[tom_l]

Yes you can copy a full backup off the system and load it into the new system.
