I missed it in the release notes, but there’s a breaking change in the ota
component in ESPHome 2024.6.0. I figured I’d save folks some time and share the fix here.
If your OTA config looks like this;
...
ota:
password: "*************"
num_tries: 3
safe_mode: on
...
Now you’ll need to add a platform
key to start a list, and either comment out the other option or move them to a new component.
...
ota:
- platform: esphome
password: "*************"
#num_tries: 3
#safe_mode: on
...
edit: Here’s the PR introducing this change https://github.com/esphome/esphome/pull/6459
The hero we need.
You have a typo:platform: esphome
.Thanks for posting, good catch!
Oops! Good eyes, and thanks! Typing yaml on mobile is squinty business. Fixed in the main post
Heh, typing YAML anywhere is squinty business. :-)
Funnily enough I was just about to upgrade devices, thanks for this!
Thanks for posting this!
Yeah this solve it. I didn’t got any release notes from the Home Assistant EPSHome update tho.
Seems It was actually 2024.6.1 that introduced the change. Not sure where in this release notes it said it was a breaking change, butI’m all turned around. I updated the main post with the link to the PR and I had the right version from the get-go.
Cheers mate - no doubt I would’ve scratched my head for a bit when I do my weekly container updates tomorrow.
