Check configuration & restart not working

after updating to 2022.7, the check configuration does not work (continues spinning for hours); also the restart does not work (nothing happens)

any idea what might be wrong and how to fix it

… and after updating to 2022.7.1 i lost all automation (the automation.yaml is there but the automations do not work and do not show up in the ui)?

Check your logs.

Same issue here I think

I had the same issue, Chek configuration spinning for a long time until it actually finished and spit out errors in the config file. After fixing those, like the new changes for the mqtt binary_sensor and disabling broken Tapo plugs integration, the check and restart worked just fine.
