Hello, pretty now to HA, but loving it.
I shutdown HA, and moved the VM to a different drive letter on my Windows Server. Started okay. The Overview shows current values, but history display nothing for every single integration.
What did I break?
Likely your recorder.
Check the log for errors.
That’s the Logbook right? Nothing I can see. I tried to filter entity or device for recording and nothing matches.
No. Logbook is just a representation of your state history. System logs are what you want:
Settings → System → Logs → Core
Okay, this looks useful. Can I re-initilise the db?
Logger: homeassistant.components.recorder.util
Source: components/recorder/util.py:292
The system could not validate that the sqlite3 database at //config/home-assistant_v2.db was shutdown cleanly
That shouldn’t stop it writing to or reading from the db unless it is corrupt from a hard shutdown.
Did you shutdown from within HA or did you just stop the VM?
Within HA.
There are no other log rows with a keyword of recorder.
What about “sqlite” or “database”?
None unfortunately.
Apologies, all history has returned. I’ve changed nothing and not restarted. I don’t understand what happened. Anyway, thanks for the assistance @tom_l
