3 months ago UPDATE:
I faced the same issue and it took me about 3 or 4 hours to get behind cause in the last 2 days I tried to fix my setup on the Pi 3 which means :
I wanted to start the terminal and the script at the end of the boot process in a visible terminal that I could check easily what is going on. I tried user, system Autostart, rc.local and what not but nothing achieved. So I tried a lot.
And therefore I had to stop grott quite often, changed directories and what not.
When i went on I had to restart grott and I started my grott with
sudo python3 /home/pi/grott/grott.py -v
And if you start grott from OUTSIDE ITS OWN directory you will get an error, the "target refused" error I do not know what is causing the issue, I simply cross checked it cause it did not disappear for hours regardless what I tried like editing grott.ini which seemed to have worked before but most likely I also had changed the directory.
Therefore I guess it is at the end a bug or risk that has to be mentioned.

Good morning, this morning I had no solar power results and when I checked grott which I have installed on a pi 3b runningn pios 64 latest stable from dec. 2023 downloaded last week I found a message like target refused error and had no data at all for all the 7 inverters active.
I had the same issue days before only once and so far it felt like those were caused by the grott.ini line about the mapping even though I had not changed anything and it had worked till noon yesterday.
So far i have opened grott.ini and saved it, then restarted grott script and then the sensors came back - I had not changed anything in that mapping line nor the mqtt password nor had I rebooted HA at that point.
Not sure why, but it seems to happen from time to time that I come across target refused error when mostly only data of 1 inverter are missing, but each time a different one.
Next time I will try to solve it just with a stop of the grott script and new start. But who knows when it would happen again or not. thanks for maintaining this piece of art - as it looks to me.
