In the ESPhome section of Integrations, does the emporia device show the sensors as unavailable, or does the device not even appear there? |

If I remember correctly, all of the sensors showed their last received values. |

I'm having a similar issue, except all the HA entities associated with the Emporia Vue3 device are reporting "Unavailable". It's been installed for only a day, but it was working for at least 12 hours before becoming unavailable. I've tried restarting HA and that doesn't help. I'm able to view the http page that the ESP firmware on the Vue3 serves, so the device is on and connected to the network. I can see the power values change, so it is definately connected to the network (although I don't see it in my router's active DHCP leases, which is weird). I've tried restarting the device via the http page, but that doesn't help either. I do see some messages in the http page logs: Not sure what is going on with that. Another oddity is that my ESPHome builder tab has always shown the device as "offline", even though I've been able to update its configuration over the air. I even just now did an OTA update with a minimal whitespace config change and it worked (I saw logs in the http server indicating that it received an update), but the entities still report as all unavailable. However, if I tried to do a non-whitespace change, I got an error: But then on a retry it worked. But my sensors aren't coming back online. Here is my config if it helps: substitutions:

I've been able to solve the issue. The problem was happening because I configured my device to use a static IP. When I removed it and went through several steps to fix mDNS on my router so emporiavue3.local resolved to the correct IP, then the devices started to show up again. It makes sense why it happened "randomly" several hours after I was fiddling with it: the DHCP lease (which was pointing to the right place) expired as the Vue device now was using a static IP to configure itself. To resolve this I had to ssh into the home assistant root supervisor so I could use docker to exec into the esphome container. In there I manually added the IP to /etc/hosts via To restate the problem: if you push a configuration with a static IP to a device, and then remove it, if the expected mDNS name does not exist then it will fail to push the OTA update. My mDNS config on my Flint2 (OpenWRT-fork) router seems to use Followed by I'm not sure how minimal my steps to resolve the issue were, but maybe it will help someone else. |

Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.

Found that all the Vue sensors just stopped reporting overnight. There are no errors in the HA logs, and no errors on the Vue when I connect to live logging through ESPHome. The ESPHome integration does not show any errors.
I've rebooted HA and I've reloaded the Vue config with the latest version of ESPHome with no change.
Vue has been running for nearly a year with 0 issues.
Any suggestions on how to further troubleshoot?
