The problem

Upgraded to Protect 3.0.10 this morning and the HA integration is broken.

Hey, The guys have enough to do anyway, the topic has already been discussed several times. That's why HA also advises you not to use EA versions. (It concerns me too, though 👯 ) Even if you do a downgrade, it won't work until the new version is released.

Unfortunately, we have no choice but to wait for the release.

See: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/112298

[clipse2004]

Quick info, it works again for me. I made the change myself ;)

[alex-savin]

@clipse2004 what did you change?

[clipse2004]

Nothing special, basically only implemented the fix from AngellusMortis. See here https://github.com/AngellusMortis/pyunifiprotect/pull/354/files

However, this is only temporary until the final release and will be overwritten with every core update.

[sethkor]

I downgraded to 2.11.21 and presto it all worked again. Thanks for your quick replies.

As it seems there is only one line to add to make basic functionality working again, maybe this line could be added to the integration if it doesn´t break backward compatability.

Could you give a quick pointer to where to find the right file in the HA installation. I have been looking but I can´t find it.

[Vladx71]

If you locate your docker container for core, open an interactive session in it, you'll find that file, so you can add this single line

Ok thank you. So that not everyone has to search. The file can be found at /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pyunifiprotect/data/types.py in the homeassistant container.

[plipof]

Good morning. Any ability to modify this file in home assistant green? Thank you in advance for your time and help.

[AngellusMortis]

EA is not supported. if you do not want your HA to break, do not use them.

How did you downgrade? I can't seem to figure out the process.

[shane8750]

apt-get install --reinstall --allow-downgrades unifi-protect=2.11.21 -y

would be command, took me a bit to find, easy to revert if anything breaks UDR. Back up stuff to be safe ;)

[AngellusMortis]

Ubiquiti explictly does has stated they do not want users running apt to issue downgrades. Doing so may break your console.

[nevereverandy]

I guess I wait as well.. I'm running HA on a virtual machine on my Synology NAS, and I don't think I have access to that types.py file either... I didn't realize there was an issue with Early Releases. Switched to Official Channel but I guess will have to wait until a new official update comes along?

As a side note, thanks to everyone working on the integrations—I'm a benefactor and appreciate the efforts.

[bdraco]

Downgrading protect is very risky, because UI does not support it and upgrades may do a database migration.

If a database migration happens then you end up writing data in the old format after the downgrade, which can lead to and unrecoverable state or data that never gets cleaned up when you upgrade again because you have data in both old and new formats in the database.

Ok thank you. So that not everyone has to search. The file can be found at /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pyunifiprotect/data/types.py in the homeassistant container.

Thank you. I knew better. I saw "new Facial detection!" and forgot the rule, and ran to EA to try out that feature. Then wife's like "Why did our automations that use the cameras stop working?" and my heart sank. This got me going once i figured out how to bash into the right container.

[plipof]

Any way to get to /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pyunifiprotect/data/types.py if you are running on home assistant green? I apologize for disturbing everyone; I am a new Home Assistant user and doing my very best to learn everything I can. I am extremely appreciative of those who work so hard to make these integrations work and I would happily donate to continued work. Thank you again for the time and help.

[AngellusMortis]

Helping you replace files are put of scope of this issue. EA is not supported. If you want assistance using a EA versions, try Discord or the community forums

[plipof]

Understood. Again, my apologies for bothering you. Thank you for the response and for developing a crucial integration used and depended on by so many in the HA community. Also, I am happy to donate if you would like as a show of appreciation and support.

So Total noob... I have HAOS running in a proxmox VM. How do i get this added? is it done through proxmox console for that VM, or Terminal in HA? and then i have no idea what i am typing to even navigate.

[andreifinski]

looks like it's being wiped out or not even applied if you change it within docker container in HassOS, will be patiently waiting for the fix to be merged

[CajuCLC]

Yep. I am getting the same issue.

[andvarga79]

Hi guys, I also made the mistake of upgrading protect to EA version and would not like to downgrade. I am running Home Assistant as VM in Proxmox, and it is fully updated, however for me the path /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pyunifiprotect/data/types.py does not exist. Can one of you help and guide me? Thanks :)

[andreifinski]

I downgraded - didn't help, welcome to EA-limbo :)

[AngellusMortis]

Can one of you help and guide me?

No. Early Access is not supported. Stop using non-release update channels for HA unless you are okay with it breaking.

[rjblake]

@andreifinski @andvarga79 - this is what I did (do so at your own risk) to get it to work:

from Proxmox VM console:

login
docker exec -it homeassistant /bin/bash
vi /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pyunifiprotect/data/types.py

add following below line 512 (DELETE_MEDIA = "deletemedia"): READ_LIVE = "readlive" save file with :wq

rm -r /usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pyunifiprotect/data/__pycache__
exit
exit

Restart Home Assistant

Notes that this will get overwritten with every core update until it is officially supported

[bdraco]

As this has turned into a support issue, I'm going to close it now as this isn't the right place for this discussion.
