Shell commands do not work

[Baujahr70]

Hi experts

I created a bunch of shell_commands

shell_command:
  dm7020_toggle: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=0'"
  dm7020_standby: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=1'"
  dm7020_reboot: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=2'"
  dm7020_restart_gui: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=3'"
  dm7020_go2idle: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=4'"
  dm7020_awake: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=5'"

and made an automation

alias: Dreambox neu starten
description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: time
    at: "05:00:00"
  - platform: state
    entity_id:
      - input_boolean.tester
    to: "on"
    from: "off"
condition: []
action:
  - service: shell_command.dm7020_restart_gui
    data: {}
  - delay:
      hours: 0
      minutes: 5
      seconds: 0
      milliseconds: 0
  - service: shell_command.dm7020_go2idle
    data: {}
mode: single

…but nothing happens

When I use the URLs in a browser, they do work.

Where ist the failure

I think curl command is not available in Home Assistant container… Here is a useful post that can help you achieve what you are looking for:

Curl command_line integration fails

Hi, I am running HA OS on a pi4 I have various other command_line integrations that call a curl: If I call this from the HA command line, it works fine In the logs, it often does not - but frustratingly sometimes it works fine Logger: homeassistant.components.command_line.switch Source: components/command_line/switch.py:133 Integration: command_line (documentation, issues) First occurred: 07:15:15 (2 occurrences) Last logged: 17:15:15 Command failed: curl --retry 5 http://various_urls Any …

I don’t think so.

I have another curl command that works.

My full shell_command configuration looks like this:

shell_command:
  cerasmarter_reboot: "curl 'http://192.168.178.139/reboot'"
  dm7020_toggle: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=0'"
  dm7020_standby: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=1'"
  dm7020_reboot: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=2'"
  dm7020_restart_gui: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=3'"
  dm7020_go2idle: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=4'"
  dm7020_awake: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/web/powerstate?newstate=5'"

and the first entry cerasmarter_reboot works quiet fine.
So I think the problem can’t be a missing curl command

@Baujahr70

dm7020_toggle: "curl 'http://dm7020hd/

Does dm7020hd resolve in the HA container?

[Baujahr70]

it doesn’t look like it

Use the ip address in the command, or fix dns.
