I’m totally new to Home automation. I tried OpenHab on a linux mint machine, got frustrated and thought I would try Hassio.
Goal: Get Hassio up and running on new Pi 3B+ with new Sandisk 64G card and new power cable recommended on Amazon for Pi.
Yesterday I got Hassio running but could not get SSH running no matter what I did to try to put an SSH text file in the boot directory, I could not make it happen so elected to just reinstall everything.
Well, I’ve been working on and reading about this all day with no success getting it going again.
I followed the steps to reformat the card,
I tried downloading a new image (the recommended one)
tried 2 brand new 64G Sandisk cards
I’m having no joy today.
I’m using a brand new Xfinity Gigabit router…I see Hassio in connected devices…it tells me it’s on 10.0.0.11
I see on FING a “generic” device using 10.0.0.11
and i’ve tried everything i can read about to get it running without joy.
Http://hassio.local:8123
hassio
10.0.0.11
10.0.0.11.local:8123
every combination of http, /, //, , \ coupled with the above and nothing will bring Hassio back up on my Windows 10 laptop that was working with it just fine yesterday.
I can’t find the connection w/ a ping, or putty…
I don’t know what else to do and it’s a bit frustrating to say the least.
Thanks for the quick reply Tinkerer I saw the change in SSH during my research and plan to try that if i can get hassio up and running again. This is an ethernet connection…i would LOVE to have a look at the pi and see what is going on but the information i found on the web involved the use of special cables i don’t have to hook up a monitor and have not found an easy way to do that.
I spent all day yesterday working on learning MQTT and Yaml language but today i’ve spent all day just trying to get this hassio running on pi so i can view on my windows 10 laptop. btw, my laptop is wifi but as i said, the pi is hard-wired if that matters.
Thanks David…yes, I tried every combination of address i could think of 10 times each and that was one of them…i just shoved an HTML cable into the back of a TV and into the pi, but “no signal HDMI” is all it returned so far.
OK, a restart of the Rpi w/ an HDMI cable run to a small extra TV i had around here has resulted in me having video…so let me run with this awhile and see if i can sort it out…hopefully i can get it done…i get a bit bogged down and can’t see the forest for the trees and i appreciate Tinkerer stating the obvious about getting video from the pi…i’ll keep y’all posted.
OK, it hangs at 1 minute 6 seconds…i can watch everything starting up just fine until it gets to a line that says:
"A start job is running for Network Manager Wait Online (25s / no limit)
then it says
[FAILED] Failed to start Network Manager Wait Online.
See ‘Systemct1 status NetworkManager-wait-online.service’ for details
[ OK ] Reached target Network is Online.
Starting Avahi mDNS-SD Stack…
Starting Docker Application Container Engine…
[ OK ] Startingj Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD Stack.
then it fills the screen with a lot of information about audit type and proctitle and filter famioly and ADDRCONF and
hassio: link is not ready
docker0: link is not ready
[ OK ] Starting Docker Application Container Engine.
Starting HassOS supervisor…
[ OK ] Starting Update UTMP about System Runlevel changes
Welcome to HassOS

and lots of other stuff i have no idea what is is about and then it just hangs at 1 minute 6 seconds into the load.
the last information i see has to do with brcmfmac: power management disabled
I can send a video or pictures but i’m guessing it’s the failed network manager?? whatever that means…any help on how to get this working would be appreciated.
OK, so i downloaded the 64 version for my Rpi 3B+ and the exact thing happened. I’m stuck…any idea what i need to do to get Hassio running on my Rpi? I’m a beginner is there another version i should be using or another procedure? I appreciate all input…thanks!
Hey David, yes, thank you. I’m aware of that. I’ve been trying to get 32 bit running and the only option I knew of for my Rpi 3B+ was the save software in 64 bit which, as I said, crashed the same as the 32 bit so not exactly where to go from here.
Here is a link to a *.MOV file I took while trying to get HassIO uploaded to my Rpi…if someone who knows what all this information means can have a look and tell me what I need to do to get this Hassio file loaded onto my Rpi 3B+ I would appreciate it. I have run out of ideas on how to get this running on my pi.
So, for anyone having this same issue, here is what I found.
It appears at this point that Rpi and/or Hassio is NOT playing nicely with the Xfinity Gigabit Router when connected directly to that router (which shows up in Fing as Arris TG3482G). Or, it could be other way around, Xfinity router not playing nicely with Rpi and Hassio.
Anyway, this morning I plugged in an Asus RC-AT3200 router to an ethernet port on the Xfinity router. Ran the Rpi to the Asus router as a subnet and Hassio loaded fine and i was then able to get it to run on my windows 10 laptop via wifi.
I do note that while my dsl speed on the Xfinity “gigabit” router is no more than 200mbps, the Asus on the subnet does not ever seem to exceed more than 3 Mbps.
So, not sure exactly what is going on there but the quirky connection via Xfinity ethernet plug may be associated with my Hassio install issue and is something i need to figure out with Xfinity and Asus.
So, now it’s back to learning Yaml and MQTT commands.
Had a similar issue where the Raspberry PI did not obtain an IP from my router since it was connected through several switches so got the ‘Failed to start Network Manager’. Resolved by connecting the Raspberry PI directly to the router.
