Network UPS Tools (NUT) integration issues errors

Configuration
1

I have configured successfully a NUT server in my RPi and I can get UPS values from a remote client by using upsc.

I added the NUT integration in Home Assistant by adding the following in the configuration.yaml file under the sensors section:

  - platform: nut
    name: "UPS"
    host: 192.168.1.100
    port: 3493
    resources:
      - ups.load
      - ups.temperature
      - ups.status
      - input.voltage
      - input.frequency
      - output.voltage
      - battery.voltage
      - battery.charge

However when I restart Home Assistant the entity is not available and I get the following error in the log file:

2020-07-05 18:51:20 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.core] Error doing job: Task exception was never retrieved

  File "/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/nut/config_flow.py", line 106, in _format_host_port_alias
    host = user_input[CONF_HOST]
KeyError: 'host'

Any ideas what to look for?

Thank you in advance!

So I had this same issue, it was because i had “ignored” the nut sensor originally (from another machine). Try going to integrations, the 3 dots in the corner, show ignored and stop ignoring.

What is the IP address of your NUT Server?
Did HA auto-discover the NUT Server?
