Occusim Error (Local variable 'i' referenced before assignment

do you also have occusim adapted for AD 3.01?
and what do you have setup in your yaml?

Well I thought I had it adapted for AD 3.01

i dont know enough from occusim to see what might be wrong with this setup.
the best thing i think you can do is remove everything and test part by part.

1 thing i think can cause trouble.

using morning_off as name is not a good idea.

step_morning_off is part from the morning step
so i would at least change step_morning_off_off to step_morningoff_off

same with room_off diner_end etc.

Ok I did as you suggested and started commenting out things until they worked. I am pretty sure it has to do with the sunrise and sunset items because when I change those to actual times it all works. I am guessing there is something wrong with how my longitude and latitude are set up within AD because I had to input this data into the appdaemon.yaml file manually for AD to work but also it has my sunset at about 23:55 tonight which is completely wrong for my location so I am guessing occusim is saying that some of my start times are after my end times so it errors out is my guess.

that should normally not be neccecary.
but if you have that set and the device settings are wrong then also the AD timesettings are wrong.

what didnt work when you didnt set that in the yaml?
it should only be set if you got a race problem with HA.

please show me your appdaemon.yaml and the log from AD right after startup (and if you dont mind also without the longtitude and latitude settings)

I was going to post my log files but my computer just crashed out on my so i will have to wait until i get home to reset it so that I can post the log files. Here is a link to an issue I filed awhile ago and if I didn’t have the longitude and latitude info my AD wouldn’t connect. I am not sure it will work with a local ip address but I can try it when i get home.

Ok if I take the longitude and latitude out of the appdaemon.yaml file it seems to work as long as I don’t have sunrise or sunset in the occusim file. It looks like my time is off by 4 hours in the log file though as I ran this a 17:13 not 21:13.

Here is my appdaemon.yaml file:

log:
  logfile: /conf/log/logfile.log
  errorfile: /conf/log/errorfile.log
  diagfile: /conf/log/diagnostic.log
appdaemon:
  threads: 10
  app_dir: /conf/apps
  plugins:
    HASS:
      type: hass
      ha_url: http://XXX.XXX.X.XXX:XXXX
      ha_key: Password

without that set in AD it should take the time from HA.
do you have time configured in HA, so that you can see time and date as a sensor, so that you can confirm that HA is running with the right time?

edit and did you configure longtitude, latitude and timezone in HA and how?

yes I confirmed my HA does output time and it is correct. Also my HA log shows the correct time as well.

Here is what I have for HA

homeassistant:
  # Name of the location where Home Assistant is running
  name: Granger New
  # Location required to calculate the time the sun rises and sets
  latitude: 39.76852
  longitude: -86.15798
  # Impacts weather/sunrise data (altitude above sea level in meters)
  elevation: 274
  # metric for Metric, imperial for Imperial
  unit_system: imperial
  # Pick yours from here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
  time_zone: America/Indiana/Indianapolis

i just realised.
AD takes the times from HA for its vars.
but it takes the device time for its logging.
so your device time is 4 hours off.

So you are saying the device HA and AD are running on. That shows the same time as HA so I am not sure why it is off. I am running this on Unraid.

hmm, cant be.

but you can check that with a small app.

import datetime
class sound(hass.Hass):

  def initialize(self):
    localtime = datatime.datetime.now()
    self.log(localtime)
    hatime = self.get_state("sensor.date__time")
    self.log(hatime)
    utctime = datetime.datetime.utcnow()
    self.log(utctime)

that gives you the different times. (off course when you configured the datetime sensor in HA)

Ok i figured it out. there was just a typo.

Ok here is the output of the log:

2018-09-15 18:21:44.613956 INFO Date: 2018-09-15 18:21:44.613951

2018-09-15 18:21:44.614700 INFO Date: 2018-09-15 18:21:44.614695

just as i figured.
your datetime.now() gives the same as your datetime.utcnow()
that means that your device settings are set to utc
so the internal clock from your device is set to utc.

thats not something that can be helped inside AD.
the fact that HA shows the right time is because that is a recalculated time.
HA takes UTC time and recalculated that to local time.

but in AD you have to deal with plain python, and python takes the local time from the device.
so you have 2 options:

  1. find a way to change your device time
  2. edit every app to change utc to utc - 4

Thank you. I will try to figure out how to subtract 4 hours from each app. I am not real familiar with python but i will try to figure it out.

i think its more easy to find out how to change your device time. (its in the real device settings, not in a clock that you installed)
when you dont, your logs will always show wrong times

it might be worth googling for

changing time for the_device_you_own

Well I thought I had this figured out because I changed the clock in the BIOS however when I ran the date app again I got this

2018-09-18 12:52:01.304806 INFO Date: 2018-09-18 12:52:01.304800
2018-09-18 12:52:01.339797 INFO Date: 2018-09-18, 08:51
2018-09-18 12:52:01.340050 INFO Date: 2018-09-18 12:52:01.340036

I have changed the time in BIOS twice now and it seems like it gets reset somehow.

some bios have a checkbox that it controls the time according to a website. so then everything gets reset based on the location settings.

also possible that your operating system has clock settings and overrides the bios.

it must be somewhere in the device or OS settings.

Ok I will keep trying. I have set the time in the OS (Unraid) and it didn’t seem to fix it. I am assuming it is being set by the OS but I haven’t quite figured out where to change it.
