Have sunset triggers stopped working again?

Automation trigger at sunset…nothing.
Core 2024.12.3

Just found an updated: 2024.12.4. Will try that.

Post the trigger please, working over here on both versions you listed

Can you check the automation trace and verify it did not run?

Moved out of WTH since this doesn’t at all appear to be a WTH

I’ll have to wait until tonight. I deleted the non-working automation and made this one, exactly as before. I hasn’t run yet.
But thanks for your attention.

My sunset activation trace shows it activated at 6:42 am this morning. Strange. I’ve checked my time zone is correct.

Are you in a VM? Is 6:42am the correct time (seems unlikely)?

You have a trace, so it’s running the automation.

Are you sure the entities you’re turning on/off still work?

No VM.
I noticed shortly after 6:42am that the switches had turned so that must be correct.
I can manually activate each switch, so that part is working.

What are you general settings set to? Specifically elevation

EDIT: I just noticed you said Core. So you’re only running HA core?

And you’re sure that the current location of Home is correct?

Duh. You prompted me to check location; still set at Amsterdam! I’m assuming this will sort it out for me. (so, sunrise/sunset is by location, not time zone. Didn’t know that.)

Thanks for your guidance.
