Scripts Not Working

Configuration
1

G’day folks,

I did a fresh install of Hassio using the installer. I copied across all of my old .yaml files, everything seems to be working fine except nothing in my scripts.yaml works. They are all scripts that I was using to send IR codes from my broadlink device to my TV. The switches I have to turn my TV on/off in my switches.yaml work fine, but the scripts for changing channels and sources in the scripts.yaml don’t.

Here is an example of a script in my scripts.yaml which doesn’t work.

dtv:
  alias: Digital TV
  sequence:
    - service: switch.broadlink_send_packet_192_168_1_111
      data:
        packet: "JgBGAJSTEjgSOBI4EhMSExITEhMSExI4EjgSNxMTEhQRFBEUERQRORE4EhQSExITEhMSOBITEhMSExI4EjgSOBI4EhMSOBIADQUAAA=="

When I execute it, it spits the following error in my log.

Error executing service <ServiceCall script.dtv (c:347ba2115a364177a4c05d8d7ec34230)>

homeassistant.exceptions.ServiceNotFound: (ServiceNotFound(…), ‘Service switch.broadlink_send_packet_192_168_1_111 not found’)

In my configuration.yaml i have scripts set to

script: !include scripts.yaml

I have no idea what else to do, on my old setup before I reformatted it was working perfectly with these settings.

The configuration of the Broadlink component has changed (in version 0.92).

In addition, the service name has changed to broadlink.send.

Oh wow…that easy! Thank you so much mate, it was driving me insane!

It’s been my experience that when the python interpreter barfs out a long trail of messages, the key is to focus on the last line in the ejecta list:
(ServiceNotFound(…), ‘Service switch.broadlink_send_packet_192_168_1_111 not found’)

The entire service was ‘not found’ which is a fairly significant problem. The hint is that you just changed to a new version of Home Assistant so it implies the component (Broadlink) must’ve been subjected to a major structural modification.

Of course, hindsight always makes things seem clearer. :slight_smile:
