Complete beginner here that has been googling and foruming for hours.
I was doing the HA install and got as far as adding the HASS Configurator (not very far). I pasted the first few lines of code in the yaml.config (that HA setup told to try as a test) and now I am unable to go into any of the add-ons.
The only options on my sidebar are overview and configurator now and clicking on overview shows nothing…
In the home assistant log it says there is an incomplete core configuration? It can’t detect latitude, longitude, time zone, etc.
Sounds like you have syntax errors in your YAML configuration file. Have you tried deleting the stuff you added so the configuration.yaml is exactly like it was when you first setup HA?
Double check your indents in your configuration.yaml file. No tabs, each indent is specifically 2 spaces.
I highly recommend you also do a configuration check before restarting. Ya never know when you’re going to fat finger something.
you replaced all the config information with only the iFrame. You needed to ADD the iFrame, not replace everything else with it.
Try this:

# Location required to calculate the time the sun rises and sets
latitude:
longitude:
# Impacts weather/sunrise data (altitude above sea level in meters)
elevation:

Enter YOUR latitude, longitude and timezone at the top.
This is as close to the default config yaml file as I can get.
Ok. That definitely makes sense and I changed it to what you recommended and I’m still having difficulty. Is there a way to completely restart this process?
I tried taking the memory card out of the pi to re-flash HA, but it will no longer recognize the card…
if you want to reflash, you will need to delete the partitions on the card first. If you use Etcher that might do that for you or else you can use MiniToolPartitionWizard (free) to delete all the partitions and make one large one again and then reflash.
Went through a long and convoluted process, but I got everything reformatted and went with hassbian and putty instead. Much easier, thanks for the pointers!
