Unexpected HTTP response status code 500 for request: http://127.0.0.1:28765/config/list?

Was there a solution for this issue?

I see a bunch of issues discussing it, but they are all closed, and none have a solution??
And the two open issues address other things.

There is the revert back to version 19 suggestion in one of closed issues.

Some mentions that the problem goes away after a while ???

I just upgraded ha 2024.10.0 and the addons - motioneye 0.21.0 , and this has popped up.

Motioneye seems to start nicely.

... and it seems to be working as I see my 1 minute snapshots being taken and stored in the file system ...

But I cannot access the user interface ... it says error occurred, refresh, and there are no cameras, leaving this error in the log:

Mysterious conclusion.

I was able to get my interface back, after I dug into the container, and corrected the ip address of another motioneye camera that was being accessed by the home assistant motioneye addon system.

Here are the steps, as I will lose my piece of paper.

1. go to home assistant terminal
2. use docker ps to find the motioneye docker - 12 digits of hex
3. use docker exec -it 1234567890ab sh (12 digits container number above)
4. now you are inside another linux system, cd /data/motioneye
5. there you will find the configs of your cameras cat camera-11.conf to see the details of your camera
6. edit the bad details with editor vi camera-11.conf, i for insert, :wq to write and quit
7. exit to close the docker system
8. restart the motioneye addon

Here is a good video about downgrading a addon.
I tried 19.0 and 19.1 but the install failed - likely due to the more recent home assistant system.

Just for the record.
