Dear Comunity,
since today my Home assistant core is not starting anymore on my Proxmox VM installed with the helper script.
I expanded the file system from 32G to 64G and updated the HA core. After restart the core is not starting anymore and i get a crash notice in the HA CLI.
“core logs” gives me a uncaught exception with KeyError “previous_unique_id”
Would be great if someone could give me a hint what to do.
Hi Fabian,
did you try setting up a new VM in Proxmox and restore a Home-Assistant Backup there?
Hey Floo,
Thank you for the reply. Unfortunally i don’t exactly know how i can get the backup out of the old VM. I never activated the SSH server and it seems like its not possible to activate SSH through the CLI. If possible to get the files from the old VM i would try to restore the backup in a new machine.
That’s a pity.
Maybe you have a Proxmox Backup from the VM (before you made your changes)?
Then you could restore the old Proxmox backup (to a new VM) and try to download the Home-Assistant backup from there.
Got it back running.
Mounted a USB Stick to the VM to transfer the backups off the machine. Backrolling on the original VM worked but Updating the Core to the newest Version always did throw the same Errors.
Installing the backup into a new VM works like a charm.
Now i learned - Backups should go on my NAS… No (proper) backup no mercy
Happy to hear that you could restore a backup.
Yes, Backups should go on some external storage. And ideally also one off-site backup just in case (following the 3-2-1 rule).
