Vera edge https error

Hi, I’ve run into an issue recently where my vera zwave devices are not working.
Investigation shows:
2024-11-05 18:00:51.486 INFO (MainThread) [backoff] Backing off fetch_events(…) for 0.9s (aiohttp.client_exceptions.ClientConnectorError: Cannot connect to host gateway-2024-XXXX-XXXX.home:8443 ssl:False [Connect call failed (‘192.168.1.231’, 8443)])

Context:
I’m running home assistant 2024.10.4 in docker, port 3480 is open. Both home assistant and the vera edge are on the same subnet and have been working for years.

I’ve noticed that the using either the IP or the local network address gateway-2024-XXXX-XXXX.home for the vera box gives me access under http, but not https.
I thought this might be a new restriction by Chrome (there is some discussion on the vera / ezlo community see this thread.
So I’ve tried the Chrome work arounds suggested in that post, but they dont work for me, I’ve also tried to use Firefox and Safari. This is frustrating as it means I cannot get an admin log into the vera box.

Similar errors are also reported by Nodered:
HomeAssistantError: HTTPConnectionPool(host=‘192.168.1.231’, port=3480): Max retries exceeded with url: /data_request?output_format=json&DeviceNum=73&id=lu_action&action=SetTarget&serviceId=urn%3Aupnp-org%3AserviceId%3ASwitchPower1&newTargetValue=1 (Caused by NewConnectionError(‘<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f5016d2dbb0>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused’)).

Any suggestions for how to resolve?

I am also running into issues with my Vera controller. The error I am receiving is: HTTPConnectionPool(host=‘192.168.1.111’, port=3480): Read timed out. (read timeout=30).

This occurs most often with automations. I am also looking for resolution to these errors.

I’ve decided life is too short to try and resolve these errors so I’ve bought a zooz zst39 and have rebuilt my zwave network on it. It is a far better solution giving much more control and speed compared with the Vera, as well as being about 10% of the price!
Such is progress!
