In November 2018, I was trying to get Home Assistant running on my Server 2012 R2 . I went through several re-installations but was unable to get to the HA interface. I could login but then could never connect to the interface. I tried various suggestions from this and other forums, but could never get it to work.
One day my son who has computing and programming training insisted that I remove my security software. Reluctantly I did so, and the problem immediately disappeared to my surprise. Thinking back I had changed to a new security system from Iolo not long before this issue began. The installation included System Mechanic Pro and Phoenix 360 which had performed very well until this HA problem was discovered.
I contacted Iolo and described the situation in detail and asked them to help me find a way to let me access HA without removing their software. The next day I relieved an obviously auto generated response assuring me the they would get back to me soon to resolve the problem.
That was about 6 weeks ago and I still have not heard from them and am now interested if others have found a good security system that is compatible with HA.
Please weigh in with your thoughts.
