MQTT sensors in HA doesn't survive a reboot ?

[Tyrian81]

Got WUD up and running and it's great for keeping up with potential container updates. But whenever I reboot the system the containers come up again , but the mqtt HA sensors do not ?

version: '3'

services:
  whatsupdocker:
    image: fmartinou/whats-up-docker
    container_name: wud
    restart: unless-stopped    
    volumes:
      - /home/*******/docker/WUD/store:/store      
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
    ports:
      - 3331:3000
    environment:
        - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_MOSQUITTO_URL=tcp://*.*.*.*:1883
        - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_MOSQUITTO_HASS_ENABLED=true
        - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_MOSQUITTO_HASS_PREFIX=homeassistant
        - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_MOSQUITTO_TOPIC=wud/container
        - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_MOSQUITTO_USER=********
        - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_MOSQUITTO_PASSWORD=*******

When I delete the /WUD/store/wud.json and restart the container the sensors are available again . Mosquitto broker ,HA, Wud all running in containers on the same host.

Hi,

@Tyrian81 , Did you try to persist the state of Mosquito as I explained on the HA thread?

[Tyrian81]

I have setup persistence in mosquitto container

version: '3.3'
services:
    eclipse-mosquitto:
        container_name: eclipse-mosquitto
        ports:
            - '1883:1883'
            - '9001:9001'
        volumes:
            - '/home/********/docker/mosquitto/mosquitto.conf:/mosquitto/config/mosquitto.conf'
            - '/home/********/docker/mosquitto/data:/mosquitto/data'
        restart: always
        image: eclipse-mosquitto

it is now saving a *.db file in /mosquitto/data/

did a full reboot of the system still the mqtt sensors are unavailable ?

Strange thing is only one container sensor survived the reboot , the mosquitto broker is still available in HA ? I will have to delete /store/wud.json restart container and they are all back ?

[Tyrian81]

after i delete the /store/wud.json and a WUD container restart it does this :

Hi,

I 'm still not able to reproduce your issue on my end :/ To help me figure out what is happening, can you:

1. Check the state before stopping your system

a. Check that the last message on all homeassistant/binary_sensor/wud_container_xxx topics contain a JSON configuration file looking like

{
   "unique_id":"wud_container_local_traefik_latest",
   "name":"traefik_latest",
   "device":{
      "identifiers":[
         "wud"
      ],
      "manufacturer":"Fmartinou",
      "model":"Wud",
      "name":"What's up docker?",
      "sw_version":"5.16.1"
   },
   "device_class":"update",
   "icon":"mdi:docker",
   "force_update":true,
   "state_topic":"wud/container/local/traefik_latest",
   "value_template":"{{ value_json.update_available }}",
   "payload_off":false,
   "payload_on":true,
   "json_attributes_topic":"wud/container/local/traefik_latest"
}

b. Check that all the wud/container/xxx topics are present c. Check that all HA sensors are present

2. Stop all your system

3. Start your system without WUD

4. Check that MQTT topics & HA sensors are recovered as expected Same tests as in 1.

5. Start WUD in debug mode- _WUD_LOGLEVEL=debug

6. Check that MQTT topics & HA sensors are still present Same tests as in 1.

And then please log here your observations & your logs. Thank you!

solved, a few reboots later it survives reboots

[zsamiatt]

What had to be restarted?

[Tyrian81]

Rebooted pc few times and was working

[Tyrian81]

Persisted mosquito data and wud data

[zsamiatt]

I delete the json file and every working good. The reboot can not solve the problem.

@fmartinou Could this issue be due to MQTT container restarting and wud not handling the connection exception properly an recovering / re-connecting? I have the same issue, over time the MQTT trigger just disappears and then just rebooting wud fixes it.
