Hi All,
Just getting started with HA and while many things are going smoothly, there’s one very issue that’s driving me nuts.
I noticed my elevation will stop updating and will not resume until I restart the server, and without elevation working correctly, a few of the most basic automations I’m trying to trigger with lights are not executing.
I’m running Hassio on an older mac in virtualbox:
arch
x86_64
chassis
vm
dev
false
docker
true
docker_version
19.03.11
hassio
true
host_os
HassOS 4.12
installation_type
Home Assistant OS
os_name
Linux
os_version
5.4.56
python_version
3.8.3
supervisor
240
timezone
America/Los_Angeles
version
0.114.3
virtualenv
false
I don’t see anything in the log file and my config is still pretty basic. I added sun2 thinking it might fix the issue. I added timezone and location to make sure that wasn’t the issue either.
config:
# Configure a default setup of Home Assistant (frontend, api, etc)
default_config:

I have just trying using sun.sun, but it will also not accurately reflect the current position in terms of the horizon.
This seems like it’s probably something extremely obvious and yet searching around I haven’t been able to find anything about this issue. Hopefully someone has some thoughts to help guide me to a solution.
Thank you,

Remove this from your config and restart:
#sun
sun:
monitored_conditions:
- azimuth
- elevation
- max_elevation
- next_dawn
- next_dusk
- next_midnight
- next_noon
- daylight
- next_daylight
- prev_daylight
- sunrise
- sunset
scan_interval:
minutes: 1
The sun integration is included in default config (which you have). Also even if you weren’t using default config monitored condItions is not a valid option.
@tom_l , Thanks for taking a look and replying!
I removed the redundant sun from the config and will monitor to see how it behaves over the next few days.
I’m not super optimistic, because I added that in when I started trying to find solutions and troubleshoot. That’s also why I’m overriding default with
#location
homeassistant:
time_zone: America/Los_Angeles
latitude: 37.732201
longitude: -122.482315
elevation: 46
unit_system: imperial
which I don’t think is helping/doing anything different from default.

That is part of onboarding and not part of the default config.
Less the 24 hours, both sun2 and sun.sun have stopped updating (although at different times?)
Sun.sun:
{{ state_attr('sun.sun', 'elevation') }}

I stepped away from HA for a few months, just did a clean install from the current VM image and still same things
