Need Help with Unavailable ESPHome Devices

ESPHome
1

I have several devices that I’ve flashed with ESPHome but have since been disconnected since I am either not using them or I am looking for a place to put them. I am running Home Assistant in Docker for background, trying to run on v 0.101.1

Lately, my Home Assistant logs have been flooded by these error messages and today I can’t get home assistant to start because of these failures. It doesn’t seem to ever time out and move on when an ESPHome device isn’t available. Here are the logs:

Those failures will not stop home assistant from running.

You’re right, I rolled back to v 0.100.1 and it comes up. Sadly these errors are so frequent I can’t see what is actually failing.

4

Just a suggestion but have you considered reducing the noise by adjusting the logging level? It can be done globally or with a little finesse by component.

It may help to pinpoint the issue.

5

I’ll try that, thanks @skutter!

6

Did you ‘update’ to esphome 0.14.x? If you did that might be why.

7

I haven’t updated esphome in at least 3 months, so it should have been updated.

8

Didn’t you ‘update’ to esphome 0.14.x? If you did’t that might be why.

9

0.14 works fine for me.

10

I figured out the issue thanks to @skutter 's suggestion. I had an entry for the legacy password in HTTP section that was a breaking change in 0.101.0, but since I don’t use it I didn’t think to check my config.

11

I’ve had terrible WiFi disconnects constantly on a variety of ESP8266 devices which used to be rock solid every since I “updated” to 1.14.X. What’s causing it and any ideas of fixes? Driving me nuts.

Their can be only one issue #455

Look into . storage folder. Looks like a config file of esphome stays there even if the integration was deleted. I had tons of old files there. Had to manually clean up.

This seems to be still a bug.
Leftovers in the .storage folder even after deleting the ESPHome configuration.
