I downloaded the VMDK and i was able to get homeassistant running on my esxi 6.0 host but its asking for a login. what are the default credentials?
you don’t do anything from the console session.
I did this a while ago to try it out on my PC. I believe the username root
got me to the hassio utils page from the console - but everything should be working without having to do that.
okay thanks. I am getting an IP of 172.17.0.1 and thats not my ip range for my dhcp pool.
That looks like a number given out by docker - it has a process for giving out IP addresses for its internal interfaces. They aren’t accessible to the world outside of docker.
That’s an internal docker ip.
okay… so how do i access the web gui
Should be http://<address of your esx>:8123
.
http://hassio.local:8123
may work, if the mDNS protocol gets through the docker/vm blocks, and your router supports it, but my experiments failed at that.
Neither worked.
Look at your router for a DHCP entry that’s assigned to your VM and use that IP:8123
No it would be the IP of the VM, not the ESX
Still nothing…
