FYTA Timeout Problems

[edgegit]

Just recently started to have lot's of issues with the FYTA integration and sensors becoming periodically unavailable. Log's showing this. Shall I open up a bug ticket?

Error fetching FYTA Coordinator data: Timeout occurred while connecting to Fyta-server

HA: 2024.8.2

Hi Rob
Thank you for your report. I encountered the same, but have not yet had to investigate it further. I assume it is an issue with fyta_cli and not the custom_component. It could be related to changes on the server side (introduction of remote live mode).
Can you please confirm if your sensors are still available or if all went unavailable?

[dontinelli]

You are not alone: home-assistant/core#124642

I will try to increase timeout and hope this resolves the issue.

[someshdev]

Please increase the update interval of homeassistant.components.fyta.coordinator to a minimum of 3x the value

[dontinelli]

What is the rational behind your proposal?

[someshdev]

Our backend queries for each plant and plant list every minute. This creates a throttle. Increasing the interval is an interim solution. In the meantime we are working on an new end point for users that require specific objects. Will keep you updated

Hi @edgegit
I increased the timeout to 60 seconds in the latest release. With this some of the timeouts can be mitigated. However, the client now sometimes runs into a gateway timeout. It seems the problem is indeed with the server having longer to respond as expected...

[edgegit]

Ah. Custom-Component. I see. I've not installed via HACS, but official installation.

[dontinelli]

Then you have to wait a little bit more. I prepared a PR, that hopefully will make it into 2024.09 (released on Wednesday).

[dontinelli]

I assumed you have installed the CC, as you reported it in this repository...

Should be part of 2024.9: home-assistant/core#125065 (comment)

[edgegit]

Yea, sorry. I was bit confused where exactly this should be reported. Excellent about the 2024.9 release.
