Cannot restart Home Assistant at the end of all configuration steps

[Wuthoqquan]

Hi Andrea,

I've been trying to get your Smarther add-on configured on my Home Assistant (v. 2023.3.2) for the last few days.

Although I went through the installation/configuration process effortlessly, till to the point when on the API web interface I click "Create HA Entities", after that when I try to restart Home Assistant, I get the following error message:

Impossible to restart Home Assistant

The system cannot restart because the configuration is not valid: Invalid config for [sensor.history_stats]: Entity ID sensor.termostato_mark's_smarther_state is an invalid entity ID for dictionary value @ data['entity_id']. Got "sensor.termostato_mark's_smarther_state". (See ?, line ?). Invalid config for [input_select]: invalid slug mark's_smarther_boost_mode (try mark_s_smarther_boost_mode) for dictionary value @ data['input_select']. Got OrderedDict([("mark's_smarther_boost_mode", OrderedDict([('name', 'Boost Mode'), ('options', ['off', 'Boost 30m', 'Boost 60m', 'Boost 90m']), ('icon', 'mdi:play-speed')])), ("mark's_smarther_program", OrderedDict([('name', 'Program Mode'), ('options', ['Full Week', 'Full Week Spring']), ('icon', 'mdi:calendar-clock')]))]). (See ?, line ?).

I have absolutely no clue why I get those errors, which prevent Home Assistant to restart!

Thank you!

I think you need to rename your thermostat…‘S it’s not compliant with Jinja template.Inviato da iPhoneIl giorno 10 mar 2023, alle ore 17:13, Marco ***@***.***> ha scritto: Hi Andrea, I've been trying to get your Smarther add-on configured on my Home Assistant (v. 2023.3.2) for the last few days.

Thank you! By renaming the thermostat the configuration problem has been solved.

However, although the configuration and installation of the add-on has been completed without any errors and the HA can now reboot with no problems, when I add the Lovalace card to my dashboard it seems it cannot detect any values from the Smarther thermostat.

I get the following info message in HA:

Questa entità ("climate.marksmarther") non ha un ID univoco, pertanto le sue impostazioni non possono essere gestite dall'interfaccia utente. Vedi documentazione per maggiori dettagli.

If I reach the page at 192.168.1.xx:5588, I still can see the thermostat is correctly detected.

Not sure what to do. Is there anything I can check to make sure the connection with the MQTT broker is working? I'm using Mosquitto Broker.

EDIT: Also this issue is now solved, even though the information on the thermostat card in HA is not refreshed as regularly as I'd like... :-(

I'm in the same situation... would like to know how to check MQTT broker activity with x8000 thermostats (I have 2) : also my lovelace card(s) not refreshing temperatures.
@Wuthoqquan how did you solved?
