HI,
I updated from 2023.5.4 to 2023.6.2. Update went fine but afterwards I cannot connect to the web UI.
Device can be connected via SSH. Observer says everything is healthy, but I cannot connect to web.
Any advice what I can do ?
The log says following

I have same issue, my logs are cleaner I don’t see any fails to load core. I am actually connected to the core directly, but I can’t connect to web after update.
more info:
I run my install on RP4, on the SSD. Everything was running fine for a year or so. I can connect with monitor and keyboard and see the system running, even some automation (like motion lights) work. But I cant connect to UI not from browser not from the app.
I tried downgrading to lower version that was working, but I still can’t connect. The IP of the HA didn’t change, I can see it in my router settings and I can see it in the HA.
Same problem here after the latest 2023.6.2 core update: web connect impossible
(my RPI4 runs also on an usb ssd)
basically you should be holding your breath on every update and crossing your fingers…
the result will again be a lot of extra work to get it up and running again
I would also prefer to see fewer updates in the future, but then the updates that are there, that they have been properly and thoroughly tested in advance
edit: see also this thread, similar I suppose…
and the comment of user “prj”

Every time I update HA I ask myself, why did I do it? It’s almost always a mistake and ends in tons of wasted time… over the last few years, I think 1 or 2 updates went smoothly and 4 or 5 caused HA to be completely unreachable. Can’t complain about free software of course, but I don’t know any software that has this comical of a track record.
I know it is tempting, to grab every update as they become available.The monthly releases (year.mo.1) are functionality(enhancement) releases, the others (year.mo.2-?) are primarily fixes/cleanup of the monthly release. Only update at the end of the month. If you running a test system go for it (and report problems), if you are running a ‘production’ system, stability is your #1 priority.
Same issue with me too. If I try the duckdns url it shows initialising. If I try thorough the direct one it says “Unable to connect to Home Assistant” Retry in x seconds.
I have my HA set at port 8443 and https only.
Have any of you guys hard-restarted HA ? … as it(this update) clearly stated for me, after install(and what seemed to be a restart) a popup stated that i actually had to manually restart HA … so i rebooted, just in case … on the other hand, i dont run PI
Same for me. I can revert to 2023.5.0 at the CLI of the VM on TrueNAS Scale and WebUI and Android app connect.
The upgrade to 2023.6.x works but Port 8123 is no open.
