Is anyone else having issues with Home Assistant since updating to 2024.3.0 and above
Everything works brilliantly like it has, and when I try to start 2024.3.0 all appears to go fine until it loads everything and then it just gets stuck on Connection lost: reconnecting…and gets no further.
Tried rebooting the VM and the whole machine it runs on…but nothing changes…yet when I rollback (proxmox snapshot) to my prior backup…which is 2024.2.5, it loads instantly and has no issues…this is the same on every device trying to run HASS including, Echo devices with FKB, phones and computer browsers.
Just had a quick scan through the breaking changes and couldn’t see anything that would affect me…at least not in this way…so wondering if I am alone in this.
Interestingly, as soon as its updated, the first startup of 2024.3.0+ is fine, but then when it’s restarted, that’s when the issues crop up
The next thing to try is a brand-new build with zero config at all.
Where my router (UDM SE) has set a fixed IP for pretty much all my devices including my instance of HASS, HASS itself had always just been set to automatic and has always worked without issue.
But read elsewhere changing this to a static IP will help…and doing so has fixed the issue…no idea why and more importantly why this is an issue 2024.3.0 onwards
Hope this helps someone else out if they experience the same
This is most likely something to do with your HA instance (an integration, add-on, HACS component or YAML). There are no issues with HA DHCP instances and Proxmox. Your ’ solution’ is a workaround, not a solution. I suggest you try to resolve the issue instead of working around it.
i totally agree with your thought process and I checked all of the logs and no error was showing…it starts up exactly the same as it does with 2024.2.5 and then goes to reconnect…it just makes no sense…I have snapshots kept in case it crops up again and will continue to dig further…but is is very odd that it only happens on 2024.3.0 and onwards and that there were no breaking changes mentioned AND no one else seems to have the same issue
I had a problem this morning, I started the update and after a short while I got a message telling me the update was no longer available. Now not much works on the display and it tells me that configuration.yaml is no longer available. I can’t SSH to the machine from another computer or use the terminal. The absence of the configuration.yaml is preventing me from doing anything.
This is a Raspberry Pi image written to a Pi 4 (with an SDD) and 8GB RAM.
This was a new installation I started a couple of days ago, my previous one failed with a corrupt Micro SD. I shut it down as I was going to loose power and it would not restart as the file system had become corrupt and it looked like Docker couldn’t start the image.
I tried to get this recorded quick in case it was a bigger problem. Any suggestions as to a fix.
If I was in your shoes I would try to troubleshoot. Create a VM copy, rename the HA instance and get the HA net as it was when you experienced the failure. Reboot and see what happens. If problem persists start with deactivating one-by-one HACS components, then add-ons, then integrations.
I would also look into configuration.yaml in case you have entries which have been migrated to the UI.
Lastly if all above fails start disabling automations, scenes, helpers, etc one by one.
I can’t do anything with the live instance, it won’t shut down or restart because of the absence of the configuration.yaml. It only lets me see the Home Screen and I can turn my lights on and off with that. The Logbook and To do list pages are the only ones that show.
I can get into settings and I can see a message that says:
The following integrations and platforms could not be set up:
intent (Show logs)
I can’t get to the logs via the Web interface or via SSH, to see what the problem is.
I was really just wanting to record something in case it was a wider problem.
All I have really done is the install, that set up my lights, adjusted a few visual things such as adding rooms. I have added HACs and installed a couple of devices from it.
I have physically turn the Pi off and restarted and that hasn’t resolved it.
So I think starting again from the down loadable image should get me back to working more quickly and I’ll use a different SSD in case that was the problem.
Has anyone found a solution for this please, I now have the issue, if I click on anything to open a page it gives Error while loading page system or Reload UI which does not work.
I can only get into settings but no further so I cant even see the logs
Then if I refresh, I get cant reach the page although I can ping the Pi
I too started having the connection issue a couple days ago. I have been running the same hardware with no hardware/device/yaml changes in months. Only changes have been installing released updates. HA loses connection and typically requires a power reboot to re-establish. Works fine for about 5 minutes and then down again. I have done some of the “fixes” I’ve gleaned from others such as static IP annd repotted into OS app. When HA loses connection, I cannot access from NC either. Any help would be appreciated.
Same issue “Connection lost. Reconnecting…” error for weeks now. Changed hardware and isolated the network.
I’m convinced that this is related to the actual install. I found another post which pointed to the error triggered by the front end. Looking at a Wireshark trace the error seems to start when a WebSocket closes. HA realises and restarts (not sure which part) but after a while the UI comes back.
So my effort will go either into disabling add-ons/integrations one-by-one as @os.habitats.tech as this will probably solve it. Another approach in my head is to start with a fresh instance and then install add-ons/integrations one-by-one and see what (if any) drives this. As a point of reference my frontend is built on Homekit-infused which hasn’t been maintained for a while. Not sure this has any impact
