I was concerned about my system being hacked so I changed the password in my configuration.yaml file and rebooted home assistant. I ended up getting all sorts of HTTP errors, I didn’t think to copy any of them, but should this be expected by just changing the password?
I changed it back to the original password and it booted fine. Shouldn’t I be able to change the password? Has my system been hacked to the point that changing my password blows it up?
SparkyDave, Thanks I believe that is what happened. I went back to the old password and seemed to remember there wasn’t any space. When I tried it again I made sure there was a space and didn’t have any issues.
Tekki, I normally use the config check and it has saved my bacon a few times. I just figured what can go wrong with changing the password… I guess I found out…
Solved, I missed the space after the ?, formatting in yaml is critical as I am sure everyone has found out at least once while changing config files.
