I tried to install Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi Zero W, following this blog post. I followed all steps, including starting the daemon as needed. WiFi is connected, and accessible via ‘ssh’

After 30 minutes, verified using ‘htop’ that update process has ended, I tried to connect using another PC - with no luck.

Can someone tell if additional processes are needed in order to run it?

EDIT1:

pi@hassbian:/home/homeassistant $ sudo systemctl status [email protected][email protected] - Home Assistant for homeassistant
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/[email protected]; enabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2018-09-03 20:45:07 UTC; 17h ago
  Process: 631 ExecStart=/srv/homeassistant/bin/hass (code=exited, status=203/EXEC)
 Main PID: 631 (code=exited, status=203/EXEC)

Sep 03 20:45:07 hassbian systemd[1]: Unit [email protected] entered failed state.
pi@hassbian:/home/homeassistant $ 

EDIT2:

pi@hassbian:/home/homeassistant $ sudo journalctl -u install_homeassistant.service
-- Logs begin at Mon 2018-09-03 20:44:51 UTC, end at Tue 2018-09-04 17:14:54 UTC. --

EDIT 3: new install of version 1.4 first link referred to v1.3 ( as noted in post that suites to RPI zero ). After installing up-to-date software (v1.4), system is operting as needed.

    What does it look like when you run sudo systemctl status [email protected]? You can edit to add the output to the bottom of your post.

    As you suspected, it looks like the service running Home Assistant failed and it stopped running for some reason. Can you try running sudo journalctl -u install_homeassistant.service and editing in the results? That command should give you the log for the installer so we can see if anything went wrong there.
