ISSUE: Unable to prepare setup for platform mail_and_packages.sensor: Platform not found about home-assistant-mail-and-packages HOT 29 CLOSED

Also, was your issue running on the pi fixed by using another version of the integration or by installing the suggested package?

Installing suggested package.

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

Are you running home assistant as root or as hass?
You activated it through the integration menu?

It appears that there is an issue on your system preventing python packages being installed. This person had a similar issue and it appeared to be related with how they installed python 3.7.

hass aka (homeassistant)

Correct

This is a vanilla buster lite installation following instructions from hass website.

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

I see that the permission on your file are owned by root and are group root. Are the other files for the configuration also owned by root?

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

I followed the instruction for rasp pi 3 from this page. Used Samba to copy the files over manually, added my details to the integration with the exception of changing the path to the home folder since it is different in this system installation.

/config/www/mail_and_packages/

All sensors are showing. See if the path corrects your issue. Or if you used different installation instruction please post the link to the page.

numpy isn't a requirement in 0.1.2 so use that version, which is the version on the master branch.

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

Yes they are below are the two other directories.

The guide you used is for hass.io it looks like. Here are the instructions I use:
https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/installation/raspberry-pi/

numpy isn't a requirement in 0.1.2 so use that version, which is the version on the master branch.

I'll give this a try.

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

This is why the recommended way is to use HACS to install. The files being owned by root should be fine since there's read access.

Removed integration, deleted files, installed 1.2 and rebooted. Added integration, rebooted again and i still get the exact same issues as OP including numpy.

This is the zip i used for .1.2
https://github.com/moralmunky/Home-Assistant-Mail-And-Packages/releases/tag/0.1.2

I did try hacs but ran into some goofy issues hence the manual route.

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

Double checked imageio uses numpy, try giving this command a go: sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

I flashed raspberry lite and used the instructions you provided to install manually within a venv.

I also received this error. It occurs right after saving the integration settings. It appears to be an issue specific to raspberry pi. @firstof9 taking the current version from the repository produces this, there might be a dependency on numpy that hasn't been completely removed?

Based on recommendation from other forums installing
sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev

This fixes the initial error but other errors are produced on this platform, line 868.

UnboundLocalError: local variable 'fp' referenced before assignment

I've run out of time to go deeper, but still platform specific. I run hass in the same manner but on Ubunutu without this issue.

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

UnboundLocalError: local variable 'fp' referenced before assignment

This sounds like the try/catch had an error. When you have time can you check the log for a CRITICAL error?

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

The fix for numpy related errors: sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

The fix for numpy related errors: sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev

Do you still get error messages "UnboundLocalError: local variable 'fp' referenced before assignment" as @moralmunky mentioned?

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

I never got an error regarding 'fp' have you @ttaidapos ?

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

The said error mentioned above I did not get. I was able to configure once and that was initially. After everything looked good, i removed the integration and re-added (reboots in between) so I can change the folder to look into in GMail since I was not able to find any file to edit my initial configuration.

Every since, I'm not able to get it working again even with using the default "inbox" folder. Below is what i'm seeing. During the integration add, all i'm getting is "unknown error" in red letters.

P.S I'm on hass 107.5

This error means the hostname isn't correct.

Check what you are putting in the host, if it's Gmail make sure you are putting imap.gmail.com not imap.google.com I've made that mistake once or twice myself.

You're absolutely right, so sorry for this novice error. This is what happens when you try to plow through troubleshooting. Couldn't find this anywhere else, can you use other labels (folders) in GMail besides "inbox". I've having a hell of a time getting it to work.

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

Step 2 has a drop down to select your labels. It pulls your folders list from the server itself now, for Gmail labels act as folders.

Not sure I understand. I created a gmail label named "Mail and Packages". Inputting that in the configuration screen doesn't seem to work.

Never mind, wrapped it in quotes and that did the trick. Thank you everyone!

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

Sounds like you are on an older version. The folder option was changed to a drop down menu that provides a list of the folders found in your mailbox.

Also, was your issue running on the pi fixed by using another version of the integration or by installing the suggested package?

To be fair, the 0.1.3 releases are marked as betas. I think once the Yahoo mail thing is sorted it should be good enough for everyone.

Explains why i was going crazy lol I installed the latest greatest twice and didn't see it lol On another note, is it me or "packages in transit" total does not equal UPS+FEDEX+USPS packages in transit?

That if i recall is fixed in the beta

Cool thanks! Also, seems like USPS Mail is counting not only mail but packages as well, unless that's intended?

from home-assistant-mail-and-packages.

The USPS Mail sensor should only be counting the number of mail pieces from the informed delivery email, no packages. Can you show what you are seeing?

Confirmed this was a goof on the USPS side. Ignore.
