Odd condition issues after update to 2023.8.2

Configuration
1

Hello all

here is an interesting one

My automation to turn on light in the stairwell goes as follows

trigger
aeotec motion sensor begins to detect motion

Condition
aeotec illuminance sensor read lux below 3

action

if time is between 08:30 and 23:59:59
then turn on selly nlight to 60 %
wait 30 seconds
turn off shelli light

from 00:00:00 to 08:29:59
do the same action but intensity is only 30%

This automation has been working for 3 years and it was working yesterday perfectly

today the illuminance sensor during the day show a reading of 46 lux

when the motion sensor detect motion during the day the light still turns on.

For your information only

Thank you for opening this issue.

That is unrelated to this topic which is about home assistant not loading the automation integration and generating an error at start up.

Please start your own topic and post the actual automation yaml rather than just a description of it.

Hello @tom_l

Normally i would agree with you however this was just to give you addition information that may ort may not be relevant.

no need for new topic

Nope, definitely a seperate issue with completely different symptoms. Please use the automation trace to debug your issue and post in a separate topic.

Hi @tom_l

I agree that it may be a separate issue. however because they work this am i beleive (may be incorrectly) that this instability my be related.

Just the same, thank you for p[ointing me to this tool i never used it

It is a separate issue, please do as Tom says and create a new thread. This whole thread is related to issues firing service calls causing automations to hang and you’re here talking about a missed condition.

Hello @petro

As mentioned here above

I know that this is a separate issue and i do not need help on this issue as it resolved by itself.

My mentioned of this incident was only to further add to the ammunition that @tom_l will escalate.

the upgrade to 2023.8.2 is creating inconsistent behaviour in automations not only the disappearance of the automation in the GUI that started this thread (and i think i resolved it as mentioned above).

but communications between device (this i will open a different thread) for example in my light control automation (the one mentioned above) at dusk when the first instance of the detection of the condition (lux less than 3) the shelly light will take up to 4 second to light up. after that the light turns on immediately)

As i said this is a seperate item an i will open an other thread for this. However I still smell the footprint of the upgrade to 2023…8.2, Because it was working fine before the upgrade

Stay tunned for the new topic

thank you for your patience
