Update problem with device node

[Leopoll]

After upgrading from version 1.0.9 to 1.1.2 and Node-RED to 14.0.1, all HA nodes give an error. I restored the backup, but now the "device" nodes do not work (it does not give an error, it just does not work), the rest of the HA nodes work fine. rebooted many times - but nothing helps. Home Assistant 2022.12.8.

[zachowj]

what's the status under the device node now? Is there anything in the logs?

[Leopoll]

Status: running Now I'm trying to update again. Again "Error: Server config node not found" on all nodes.

Node-RED is not seeing that the NR companion custom component is setup in HA. If it was the status of the device nodes would say registered.

[Leopoll]

What to do? I didn't change anything. Some HA nodes are working now.

[zachowj]

Most of the "Standard" nodes don't require the custom component. Check HA and make sure the custom component is still added.

In the Home Assistant UI go to "Configuration" -> "Integrations" and look for Node-RED.

If not, add it.

[Leopoll]

Yes, it was missing. Thanks a lot. But what about 1.1.2 version? Why I can't update?

[zachowj]

Pretty sure it had nothing to do with version 1.1.2 but the add-on update. After you update make sure the "I use the add-on" is checked in the HA server config in NR.

[Leopoll]

Yes, it's not the version 1.1.2. Now updated only NR on 14.01. All nodes HA with errors.

[zachowj]

There should be an error in the debug window. What does it say?

[Leopoll]

Now it's empty. Last time was the "Error: Server config node not found"

[zachowj]

under the deploy button run "Restart all flows" and it should produce the error

[Leopoll]

Error: Invalid server config Error: Server config node not found

[zachowj]

If you open the nodes with error and select a server does the error go away?

[Leopoll]

No. Error doesn't go away

[Leopoll]

And the device node can't find any device.

[zachowj]

Do you have more than one server config?

[zachowj]

The device node won't find any devices until it has a connection to HA

[Leopoll]

No, only one.

[zachowj]

Can you export your server config node and post it here?

[Leopoll]

[ { "id": "9055ffae.cacf6", "type": "server", "name": "", "version": 5, "addon": true, "rejectUnauthorizedCerts": true, "ha_boolean": "", "connectionDelay": false, "cacheJson": false, "heartbeat": false, "heartbeatInterval": "", "statusSeparator": "", "enableGlobalContextStore": true, "credentials": {} } ]

[zachowj]

Out of ideas at the moment. You could try creating a new server config and using that with an events state node and see if it connects.

[Leopoll]

Creating a new server was not helpfull. Now NR 11.1.1, NR Companion 1.1.2. All is working. Problem with NR 14.

No need to open another issue since it looks like I'm in a similar situation. I have HA 2022.12.8, NR 3.0.2, node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket 0.48.0 and NR Companion 1.1.2.

With "Using the Home Assistant Add-on" checked I get the following errors:

• "Error: Supervisor token not found." on the configuration node
• "Error: Server config node not found" on each HA node in my flows

{"id":"c22a2efd1032de6a","type":"server","name":"Home Assistant","version":5,"addon":true,"rejectUnauthorizedCerts":false,"ha_boolean":"y|yes|true|on|home|open","connectionDelay":false,"cacheJson":true,"heartbeat":false,"heartbeatInterval":"30","areaSelector":"friendlyName","deviceSelector":"friendlyName","entitySelector":"friendlyName","statusSeparator":": ","statusYear":"hidden","statusMonth":"short","statusDay":"numeric","statusHourCycle":"default","statusTimeFormat":"h:m","enableGlobalContextStore":false}

If I untick it and add set the base URL and access token it won't show any errors but won't see any entities on the get entities node so this option won't work either.

{"id":"c22a2efd1032de6a","type":"server","name":"Home Assistant","version":5,"addon":false,"rejectUnauthorizedCerts":false,"ha_boolean":"y|yes|true|on|home|open","connectionDelay":false,"cacheJson":true,"heartbeat":false,"heartbeatInterval":"30","areaSelector":"friendlyName","deviceSelector":"friendlyName","entitySelector":"friendlyName","statusSeparator":": ","statusYear":"hidden","statusMonth":"short","statusDay":"numeric","statusHourCycle":"default","statusTimeFormat":"h:m","enableGlobalContextStore":false}

[Leopoll]

I'm sorry. Something strange is happening. After rebooting the server (not only the HA, but the entire physical device), node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket disappears from the NR palette. Why?

[rlust]

I am having same issue. The devices I created in NR work some times then they are unavailable. Last issue was devices are there but no entities.
