Python error reloading configuration

Configuration
1

Hi newbe here.

I am getting a python error when trying to reload my configuration.yaml file. I have no idea what is in that file that is causing it to throw that error.

  • [547927401664] ‘<’ not supported between instances of ‘str’ and ‘NoneType’
  • [547920703296] ‘<’ not supported between instances of ‘str’ and ‘NoneType’

I can post the file if needed. But its probably something I did that was stupid.

A little progress
If I remove the sensor section then it loads.

I tried adding one back in and it triggers the error.

Welcome to the forums, andersonas25!
Please post your code.

I restored a backup and got to a point where the error no longer occurs. But I have not put the entire confguration.yaml back. This is the file that was failing.

During reload the sensors have no value, it’s ‘None’. Assign a default value, this would be in relation to the first sensor e.g.


          {{ [ states('sensor.envoy_121736108162_lifetime_energy_production'),
               states('input_number.old_envoy_lifetime_production') ]
               | map('float', 'unavailable')
               | select('is_number')
               | sum }}

and to all |int e.g. |int(0)

Thanks

I made those changes.
