Hi, I am running HA on a raspberry Pi 3 using a usb zwave stick (aeon 7 gen, firmware 20.2) that works like a charm. Unfortunately I am not able to connect the ws server and I cannot see the zwave devices as HA entitites. I do not know the architecture of HA on a rpi, is it working in a docker sandbox? do I need to configure docker also for the ws server?
What’s “the ws server” to you?
well I suppose the WebSocket HA integration that provides communications between HA and Zwave.
But what are the actual symptoms?
You can access HA, right?
How can you tell the zwave stick “works like a charm” if you cannot see any zwave devices…
If you are using HAOS you need to install one of the add-ons, Z-Wave JS or Z-Wave JS UI. If you are running HA in container, you need to install Z-Wave JS UI in container. Any of those provide the Z-Wave driver and the websocket server, HA itself does not.
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/zwave_js/#running-z-wave-js-server
For an add-on install, follow the instructions in the add-on docs.
For a container install of ZUI, follow its installation instructions:

I can see and interact with the devices but I cannot see them as HA entities
I am running HAOS on a raspberry pi 3. ZUI is installed, and I can see the devices through its interface. The problem arises in the lack of integration with HA. How can I have proof of the ws running? how can I test the communication between ZUI and ws server?
Seems you skipped the installation instructions?
Now it is time to set up Home Assistant:
I have tried several times to follow these steps, but as the post title says it is “unable to connect”. What am I missing?
It means the add-on is not running (e.g. there is an error), or the z-wave driver has failed (error) or default settings related to Websocket server were changed.
Thanks. How can I debug/fix this?
Check the logs in the add-on logs tab for any startup errors.
Check the driver logs in ZUI for any errors: https://zwave-js.github.io/zwave-js-ui/#/troubleshooting/generating-logs?id=driver-logs
Undo any changes made to websocket server settings, the default ones are set for use with HA.

Those aren’t driver logs, but it does appear ZUI is working OK. That would leave a problem with the WS server configuration in ZUI. Did you change something?
Yeah, you did. Server Host. Should be blank.

is there any further step to do?
Nope, that’s it.
