HADashboard - Dashboards disabled

Third party integrations HADashboard
1

Hi, I’m a newbie with Home Assistant but have some computer and programming skills.
I’ve installed Home Assistant using Hassbian.
Now I’ve installed HADashboard using Hassbian script

sudo hassbian-config install appdaemon

This is my appdaemon.yaml file
log:
accessfile: /home/homeassistant/appdaemon/logs/access.log
errorfile: /home/homeassistant/appdaemon/logs/error.log
logfile: /home/homeassistant/appdaemon/logs/appdaemon.log
log_generations: 3
log_size: 1000000
appdaemon:
disbale_apps: 1
threads: 10
api_key: ****
plugins:
HASS:
type: hass
ha_url: http://hassbian.local.mak:8123
ha_key: ****
HADashboard:
dash_url: http://hassbian.local.mak:5050
dash_dir: /home/homeassistant/.homeassitant/dashboards

and this is the resulting log file
2018-10-25 09:20:18.102340 INFO AppDaemon Version 3.0.1 starting

2018-10-25 09:20:20.417256 INFO AppDaemon: App initialization complete

the problem is that I cannot access dashboard at /myip:5050
I think the problem is on
Dashboards are disabled
and
API is disabled

Can someone help me to found the issue?

first of all it is hard to read your yaml if you dont present it as codeblock.
but i see you use HADashboard and not hadashboard in your config, so you probably did use some old instructions from somewhere.

the official docs are here:
https://appdaemon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/INSTALL.html

if you have api key set in HA and indention is right, i think your only problem is the capitals.
dont worry about the disabled api, you dont want to use that.

Thakyou very much Rene. I tought to have formatted the log file but I didn’t.
My first appdaemon.yaml used “hadashboard”, then I tried with “HADashboard” but nothing changed.
Now I’ve tried to use again “hadashboard” but log remains

i see. thats why its important to show yaml as codeblock :wink:

hadashboard shouldnt be a sub from appdaemon.
so remove the spaces before hadashboard.

2 more other things:

  1. you dont use appdaemon api, so you dont need to set api_key. for connection to HA you set the HA api key as ha_key
  2. its not disbale_apps but disable_apps

:scream:
How foolish of me. Stupid issues are sometimes worst issues!
Tankyou very much, now I have a connection and Dashboards are enabled.
I can see just a blank page…but …one step at a time.
Enjoy your day, Rene!
