[Solved] Samba stopped working after upgrade to 0.85.1

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

I just upgraded to version 0.85.1 and Samba doesn’t even start.

All I get is this log:

[INFO] Read hostname: hassio
addgroup: illegal character with code 33 at position 7

My config is pretty standard I’d say:

{
  "workgroup": "WORKGROUP",
  "username": "secrets! smb_urs",
  "password": "secrets! smb_passwd",
  "interface": "eth0",
  "allow_hosts": [
    "10.0.0.0/8",
    "172.16.0.0/12",
    "192.168.0.0/16"
  ]
}

In CLI, the “hassio hassos info” command reads:

board: rpi3
version: "1.13"
version_cli: "8"
version_cli_latest: "8"
version_latest: "1.13"

This really sucks. I’m a beginner with HA, started about 3 weeks ago. Thanks for any suggestions and help.

I don’t think secrets! is supported in addons. Try it without and see what happens.

Well, this has been there from the very first time. But I’ll try.

Yap, it works! Strange. NodeRed, Spotify and Alexa plugins work with secrets!. Anyway, thanks again.
