Getting state unavailable?

[brynyneuadd]

Hi,

Installed this and all appears to be working, except all my Home Assistant entities are listed as 'unavailable' - any idea what this means?

I have the same problem!

Have you checked what is being published to MQTT? I had this when there was two instances running, one pubishing over the other.

Hello, have the same problem. How to get rid of it? How to figure out if there are two instances? Thanks

[the-jeffski]

Simplest is run ps | grep "system_sensors*"

[Hamudulu]

Thanks, and if there is nothing shown then nothing is running? Im struggling with point 7 and the following points. After did point 7 the sensor are visible in HA but after closing the terminal they are unavailable. Strange.

Ah, so it not running. When you close the terminal it will quit as its running from there. You need to enable the service in part 8 for it to run in the background.

yes, of course, I tried. that's the message I got: `● system.sensors.service - Python based System Sensor Service for MQTT Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/system.sensors.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Tue 2023-02-14 12:53:10 CET; 9s ago Process: 19700 ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /home/pi/system_sensors/src/system_sensors.py /home/> (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 19700 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) CPU: 479ms

Try setting power_status: false in the config.
