Despite being a software developer and a daily MBP user my comfort levels with Unix is low low low. I’m setting up my first HASS system and obviously it’s very much trial and error.
I know I can restart HASS through the UI, but if my config is so bad that HASS fails to start back up, how do I tell it to start again once I’ve fixed the config issues in cat /home/hass/home-assistant.log?
I’m on a pi, that’s the default location after using the AIO installer. I feel like I’m using a flamethrower to start a match - the only solution I’ve worked out is a sudo reboot…
For some reason I didn’t think that would work with it running under its own account instead of pi. Will check next time I kill it with bad config, thanks
you can always add a sudo NOPASSWD line in /etc/sudoers giving that user the right to do that w/o a password. You can even specify that its the ONLY command he can sudo.
