Web gui just stops responding after first reboot

on a rpi-3b

initial installation is fine works great. on first boot, after waiting a the 5 mins, the hass gui loads up and i can access via browser.

but if it EVER stop/restart the service or simply reboot, the web gui never comes back.

i can see it is running via the status in systemctl. but i cannot load the web gui at all.

i’ve tried both the hassbian install and regular pixel with the installer script. same result.

it’s really getting quite frustrating.

I’ve noticed this too. It’s hit or miss whether the web UI works since 0.40.0. Running on a mac

Have you installed the latest update? V0.40.2.

YA KNOW WHAT? SCREW ALLn1 AND HASSBIAN.
i’ll just do this myself.

flash pixel to sd card, boot
use mouse, turn on ssh and set timezone

ssh pi@the_ip_of_pi
pw: raspberry

–change pw
passwd

–set root pw
sudo passwd root

–change hostname
sudo raspi-config

sudo reboot

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade -y

sudo reboot

sudo pip3 install homeassistant

–first run
hass --open-gui
open: http://the_ip_of_pi:8123
ctrl-c
sudo reboot

----setup auto start for hass
[where pi is the username]
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/[email protected]
