Same here!

vMeph · August 6, 2018, 7:25pm

was getting exited about update but same problems, this use to be so cool with addon hassio, now cant even get it to work!!!
hopefully will come up with a resolution

kdavidson · August 6, 2018, 7:37pm

I’m guessing this all has to do with trying to run the Alexa support on top of HassOS. I have my setup working fine in Hass.io running on top of resinOS. I just installed a fresh copy of Hass.io with HassOS on a separate SD card, copied my snapshot onto it, and started getting all the same errors that people are reporting. HassOS doesn’t appear to be able to install the lxml support that is required, so ends up spitting out a flurry of errors.

This isn’t the first time I’ve had problems with HassOS breaking features that work fine on resinOS. I won’t be making the switch anytime soon.

vMeph · August 6, 2018, 7:39pm

ya im using HassOS

7even · August 6, 2018, 8:47pm

I am running Hassio. on Docker on a NUC and get the same error. How did you get it to work?

I get this error; no captcha box even.

It’s complaining about a unicode quotation mark in front of the “a” in "amazon. Does your url: setting have quotation marks? Can you try removing or switching to single quotes?

Finally its alive thank you so much for everyone that has worked towards v8.0 this is the first time I have been able to get it to work. So much better then google.tts

Getting the same error as you on Hass.io 0.75.2, running on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Odroid XU4).

Same error for me running HassIO 0.75.2 and Alexa.py 0.8

caple · August 7, 2018, 6:45am

Mine was working with alexa.py ver 0.7.1. and HassIO 0.74.2 Then I added an Amazon Fire TV Cube in the mix and it stopped. That was the only new variable I can think of but it should not matter.

Now I’m running alexa.py ver 0.8 and HassIO 0.75.2 on a Raspberry pie and still not luck

Chewee · August 7, 2018, 6:51am

Can I have an example of someones config, like the syntax please?

alandtse · August 7, 2018, 6:53am

@gazzaman2k
New PR submitted that should resolve lxml. Finally got myself a hassio install for testing.

@phantomdarkness: I added a dependency requirement for simplejson that may resolve this for you if you’re on hassio. If you’re not, there’s probably a little more logging before that point that will help zero in.

Now i’m just getting a timeout reading image error, I think the amazon emailing a verification code is my problem.

It should be where you typically would log in to Amazon. I’ve found that if your’e out of region, you may get less functionality out of your devices (i.e., TTS may not be available).
