Are you using Proxmox?

I’ve just run the Homey install script and installed the app. Exact same error as you get. I think it’s because it’s an unprivileged LXC running Docker. I’ve switched it to privileged (by backing up the LXC and restoring it as privileged), and the app runs normally again. But as that install was fresh I had no other installed apps so I don’t know if that would play havoc with other app installs.

I don’t know why it would particularly need to be privileged if everything else is working well. I can only think it’s something to do with the introduction of Python Apps SDK which seems to have only been a couple of months back.

Edit: Yeah, I’m fairly certain that’s where the issue is. I’ve added a post to the SHS Proxmox thread to see if anyone can confirm.

I like a lot of Proxmox user see the local webserver with a default username and password at the end of the install and immediately want to change this as it is a security risk. A quick change to the install script to state something like this Homey Self-Hosted Server (113) is ready. Hostname. : homey-shs IP : 10.0.0.142 SSH Username : root (disabled by default) SSH Password : homey HTTP Address : [http://10.0.0.142:4859](http://10.0.0.142:4859/) …
