Web interface not reachable, no other ways to get in?

So I spend the whole day configuring my home assistant setup (raspberry pi 3 with the hass image). The last time I clicked reboot in the web-interface, it was not reachable anymore.

I ran nmap on it, it says that the device is up and port 10010 is open.

So what I tried:

  • Clear browser cookies and cache
  • Use my phone on the same wifi to check if I was just blocked or something
  • Inserted the SD card in my computer and it says it is not recognizable. So that’s also a dead end I think
  • I tried to SSH into the box, but apparently you have to explicitly enable ssh beforehand
  • I also googled around and when you connect it to a hdmi display you get no console access? Also dead end

So now it’s a dead box where I cannot get in? So no way to recover my configs?


Update: I am able to access the editor (it’s the plugin to edit your config files): http://192.168.1.x:8321/ide.html

I try to exploit that. I keep you updated. Suggestions are welcome

Update 2: there is an interactive shell. I can debug the issue now.

So it appears that with the editor I was able to look in the home-assistant.log file.

I corrected the issue and i used “hassio host reboot” in the shell window at the bottom.
