Description

Everything worked perfectly, although a few days ago I did not use the button.
Since the last use I have also updated home assistant to version 0.88.1. I do not know if it will have anything to do with it.

The service is OK.
If I press the button, I see it in the console.

home-server@home-server:~$ sudo amazon-dash discovery
Welcome to Amazon-dash v1.3.2 using Python 3.6.7
The discovery command lists the devices that are connected in your network. Each device will only be listed once. After executing this command wait approximately 10 seconds before pressing the Amazon Dash button. After pressing the button, the Mac address of the button will immediately appear on the screen. Remember the address to be able to create the configuration file.
52:c7:be:xx:xx:xx
00:fc:8b:xx:xx:xx (Amazon Device)

If you activate the service from the console, the home assistant event is activated

home-server@home-server:~sudo amazon-dash test-device 00:FC:8B:xx:xx:xx --config /etc/amazon-dash.yml

  InsecureRequestWarning)
2019-02-28 20:47:32,314 - amazon-dash - INFO    - {"message": "Event dash1 fired."}

But if I press the button, nothing happens, nor do I see any record in home assistant.

I am totally and completely lost....

HELP 😄

Hello, if test-device works and the device is recognized using discovery, everything should work. Maybe there is a problem with your network or with your computer. Some network cards may be suspended, or there may be Wifi issues after a while.

[LeidenSpain]

It is the same team as always, with the same configuration.
The equipment shares files by SMB, therefore the wifi works perfectly.

I think I've discovered where it fails.
I have decided to follow all the installation steps again, at one point I get an error (previously it worked):

sudo python -m amazon_dash.install
/usr/bin/python: No module named amazon_dash

I'm reading this post, but at the moment the error wins :(

HI,

More info (I hope not to saturate the thread):
I have reinstalled amazon-dash and it gives me this message:

home-server@home-server:~$ sudo pip install amazon-dash

Finally:
#105 (comment)

sudo python3 -m amazon_dash.install

[Nekmo]

Yes, this is a problem in some distributions. Thanks for notifying.
