Core: New Problem with Harmony in 0.85: HASSIO looses connection after some hours

[Kugelfang666]

Dear all,

updating from 0.84.6 to 0.85 I suddenly ran into problems with my harmony hub:

Error description:
Everything works fine after a fresh boot of HASSIO. After some hours HASSIO looses the connection and goes to "unknown" state for the remote. Only fix, reboot whole HASSIO

Last known working version: 0.84.6

Current setup:

• HASSIO 0.85
• Harmony Hub on beta FW

Configuration:

    remote:
      - platform: harmony
        name: HarmonyHub
        host: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
        port: 5222  
        activity: Sonos

Hi please make sure to fill in the entire issue template next time, no need to delete but you did good providing all the requested data.

I am seeing this as well, hub goes into unavailable state and its unrecoverable until a full HA restart.

Same problem here.

Current setup:

Hassbian 0.85.1
Harmony Hub latest FW ( no dev version)

Interesting, I updated my hub to the non beta version (206) and removed the port from the config. ever since ists working stable now...

I have the same problem. @Kugelfang666 just to clarify you updated to the non XMPP firmware?

[Kugelfang666]

@JIOB: correct!

I have this issue too. State switches to 'unavailable' after a while, usually after 1 to 8 hours. Only solution is to restart Home Assistant.

This is shown in the console. After the error nothing more is logged regarding Harmony:
2019-01-13 17:50:15 ERROR (MainThread) [aioharmony.hubconnector] 10.0.30.15: Exception trying to establish web socket connection for hub #######: Cannot connect to host 10.0.30.15:8088 ssl:None [The semaphore timeout period has expired]

Configuration:

remote:
  - platform: harmony
    name: Harmony
    host: 10.0.30.15

I am running Home Assistant 0.85 on Windows 10 with Python 3.6.8.
Harmony hub is version 4.15.206.

@ehendrix23 are you aware of this issue? seems to happen very frequently.

@JIOB, @rs443,

Can you please check as well if running on the official Harmony firmware (206) solves the issue?

FYI, I did find a bug where trying to reconnect until connection occurs was not working.

@dshokouhi, I was not. :-) Thx!

rs443,
Can you please check as well if running on the official Harmony firmware (206) solves the issue?

Yes, I am running the official firmware.
