Dashboard Loading Error

the i can only hope that @aimc has an idea how to solve this.

Decided to start from scratch today using the docs including the initial test. The test failed to run HADashboard.

I’m at a loss to what i could be doing wrong at this point and can only assume its to do with running on Synology.

Command Ran:

docker run --rm -it -p 5050:5050 \
  -e HA_URL="<HA_URL value>" \
  -e HA_KEY="<HA_KEY value>" \
  -e DASH_URL="http://IP:5050" \
  acockburn/appdaemon:latest

Output:

create the dirs:

/conf/compiled/javascript
/conf/compiled/css
/conf/compiled/html

und make sure that appdaemon has writing access to those dirs.

Ok its official i’m a fool. I finally found the cause of my problem i had not filled in entity_ids correctly for some of the widgets. It seems i’m back up and running once again.

Thank you so much for sticking with me @ReneTode

your welcome.
