I have been struggling with homeassistant for a few days now. I’m trying to restore my system to a previous snapshot. Unfortunately the snapshot’s config folder is incomplete. Luckily I make offsite backups besides automated snapshots. So I have a complete (and working) config directory. Did some research on restoring homeassistant. From what I have read it is just a matter of drag-and-drop the config folder from the backup to the config folder of my new setup. That didn’t work. I was unable to get it to work. What are the steps to fix this? This is what i got from the log file after restarting HA from terminal.
I would recommend just extracting the snapshot, and then shutting it off and plugging the storage into your computer. Manually copy the config folder, put the storage back, and power on.
Or simply issuing the home assistant stop command (leaving the addon containers running).
Copying your entire backup config folder over to the system using samba or SSH.
Then issuing the home assistant start command.
Stop home assistant
ha core stop
Start home assistant
ha core start
Just to be clear. Should I delete all the files (including those in hidden folders) inside the config folder before copying?
Couldn’t hurt but I’d keep a copy off the system. Just in case your ‘complete’ replacement has worse issues.
Deleted my config folder before copying the backup and used the ha core stop and start command. Got all kinds of errors after restarting. Some were database related so stopped HA again. Removed home-assistant_v2.db. Restarted. That resulted in less errors. But still…not a working HA GUI. Lots of component errors this time.
