I’m currently using Double Take along with Frigate and CompreFace for facial recognition. I’ve been running CompreFace successfully for about a year without any issues. However, after updating to Home Assistant Core 2025, CompreFace stopped working. Frigate and Double Take are still functioning correctly.
I’m seeing a lot of log entries.
When I try to access the CompreFace web interface via its IP address on port 8000, I get the following error message.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I implemented your solution and was able to get it working, thank you very much!
I only have one question as, for some reason, whenever I power off my home assisntant server or whenever I install an update and need to restart the system I loose all my configuration for compreface and need to reconfigure the compreface instance, create a new user, create a new recognition server and, again, train all my faces.
I have tried using chatGPT to find solutions to this issue but it has not been very helpful.
yes, I did i fixed it now i have these:
