I have left my add-on with the standard log_level as info. When I in my apps add “self.log” then it gets into the log and I can see it on the Appdaemon add-on page. But isn’t it saved in a file somewhere? Issue is when I try to look back in time and then in the add-on page there is only so many records available - not enough historical data.
standaard goes the log to STDOUT and STDERR.
which are your systemlogs for output and error.
what you see on the addon page is a selection from the last lines in the systemlog that are about appdaemon.
but in the systemlogs you should be able to find way more.
how to get something from your systemlogs i dont know, because i always use seperate logs for everything. 
but i think frenck can tell you that.
I am confused about the version. How does V1.6.0 relate to 3.0.2?
The first post suggests AppDaemn3 should be installed but I think that is old advice? A thread of 180 messages makes it tricky to find the latest advice.
Just checking as I tried installing (into a docker install) hass-apps using the requirements.txt method and it did not do anything.
V1.6.0 is the hassio addon version number
3.0.2 is the appdaemon version number
if you use docker then i suspect that you dont use hassio?
so then you dont have to do anything with hassio addons.
for docker install from appdaemon look at the documents.
https://appdaemon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/INSTALL.html
to know what version you have installed restart appdaemon and look in your logs.

Since few day my appdaemon stopped working, in the log I receive this
12-05 20:00:23 INFO (SyncWorker_15) [hassio.docker.interface] Clean hassioaddons/appdaemon3-amd64 Docker application
18-12-05 20:00:24 ERROR (SyncWorker_15) [hassio.docker] Can't start addon_a0d7b954_appdaemon3: 500 Server Error: Internal Server Error ("driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint addon_a0d7b954_appdaemon3 (915c1a9c3ca1174c20188e4bace5279ead478a25e88ca02217554e7179588c43): Error starting userland proxy: listen tcp 0.0.0.0:5050: bind: address already in use")
which shows that port 5050 is in use (strange I don’t know what can that be). Nevertheless I changed port in configuration (5678), saved the configuration and started appdaemon addon, but it did not start, when I go see the log it gives same error: port 5050 in use, so I guess the addon does not pernmit to change the port??
i think you need a complete restart from your device.
probably with some restart from appdaemon or an update or something, something has kept running that should have been stopped.
Just trying to get AppDaemon add-on up and running, but getting problems in the log when I try to start it out of the box. I’m running hassio and I haven’t changed anything in the configuration. Here’s the snippet of the log, but nothing obvious stands out other than what seems like a problem in one of the dependent libraries…

it seems that the values in HASS are not as expected and in appdaemon.yaml not set.
Thanks. All of these values were properly set in the HASS config under the homeassistant: block. All I did was copy them as-is to the appdaemon: section in the appdaemon.yaml file and now it works. So in my case for some reason it is unable to pull the values from HASS config.
What other addons do you have installed?
Too many lol. A restart fixed it
So I want to confirm my understanding of how this should be setup, because all of the videos and setup instructions I’ve watched seem to make it look like this should “just work”. But I’m not seeing that because after the installation of the add-on and configuration of a dashboard, I’m still getting “entity not found: switch.front_porch_switch” messages on my dashboard. Before I go into posting all the logs here I want to make sure that my process for setting up is correct… The hurdles I’m seeing make me feel like appdaemon isn’t able to communicate with hassio (see steps 3 and 7)
-
I’m running Home Assistant 0.85 (via hassio)
-
Install the AppDaemon add-on (repository had already been added)
-
Start the add-on and check the logs. I get errors that I posted above about not being able to read the 4 values for lat, long, etc even though they are in my home assistant configuration.
-
Add those values and restart the add on. Logs show same stack trace as before, but no messages about lat/long and I get the message “INFO AppDaemon: App initialization complete”.
-
I open the hello dashboard and it loads.
-
I add a switch from my /dev-state URL in home assistant, copy paste into layout of the hello world dashboard “switch.front_porch_switch”, save, and reload the dashboard url.
-
Dashboard shows “entity not found: switch.front_porch_switch” message. Clicking the widget on the dashboard puts a message in log:

Am I missing a step here in my setup?
- shouldnt happen
- shouldnt be neccesary, and it would be better to find out why it happens. it also shows that the connection is still broken, because you still got the error. thats probably also why you did get the errors about timezone
- even with the errors AD was able to start. AD is evolving to be able to run with several plugins, so if 1 doesnt start it should still run.
- off course it cant load the entity, because the connection is still inactive.
please 2 things:
- show your appdaemon.yaml
- restart appdaemon and show me the log from the start untill it has finished initialising.
I’ll make two posts… one with default config and one where I put the 4 config values it complains about not finding.
For this one… completely uninstalled the add-on and deleted the appdaemon directory. Reinstalled and started the app which created this appdaemon.yaml config:

do you have SSL setup in HA?
if so you might need
cert_path: <path/to/root/CA/cert>
cert_verify: True
in the plugin section.
and then the url should be https://hassio/homeassistant i think
i would expect that if you have that, that the addon would take care of that, but i do know to little about hassio and what the addon does or doesnt.
the error is to unfamiliar to me to make anything else from it.
maybe @aimc knows more about it.
I will try your suggestion, but one of the debugging steps I tried was to turn off SSL in HA and I believe these same errors were still in the log.
if you try such things its wise to clear logs, turn of the power from your device and reboot with the changed environment.
then you can be sure that the settings from that moment actually are the working ones.
often we forget what the order is of changes that we actually made, and just the right combination falls through.
maybe you installed appdaemon with SSL off and did you turn it on again afterwards.
when you have ssl in HA you need to have the settings in AD
when you dont have SSL in HA you need to have no settings in AD.
I had a conflict with Traccar. That addon opens a huge list of ports (of which one is 5050) for all potential devices to track so had to move the mapping of port 5050.
