[Micha70]

Describe the bug
Following error message appears if bt-mqtt-gateway is started as homeassistant addon (https://github.com/FaserF/hassio-addons/tree/master/bt-mqtt-gateway):
Found config file at /share/bt-mqtt-gateway.yaml . Copying it now. Starting bt-mqtt gateway in normal mode If there are any bugs occurring below this line, please report it to the bt-mqtt-gateway developer and not to @FaserF - thanks. Traceback (most recent call last): File "./gateway.py", line 63, in from config import settings File "/application/config.py", line 4, in with open(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(file)), "config.yaml"), "r") as f: IsADirectoryError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/application/config.yaml'

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install bt-mqtt-gateway as home assistant addon
2. start add on
3. add on does not start, error message posted above appears

Expected behavior
Addon can be started, and addon is working

Server (please complete the following information):

• OS: Linux
• Distro: [Raspbian]
• Version [11 (bullseye)]

Additional context
running the bt-mqtt-gateway in an virtual environment since several month works very well.
Created also a issue on addon (FaserF/hassio-addons#86), however error message above refers to this developer of bt-mqtt-gateway.

I have the same issue as @Micha70

I have the same issue as @Micha70

@antoniomolram: Have a look on FaserF/hassio-addons#86. You can have a quick fix it by modifying start.h.

[antoniomolram]

I am checking this, but I don't know where this repo is located, and you mean start.sh, right? How looks your start.sh. Any help? :)

[Micha70]

@antoniomolram the repo is located at /usr/share/hassio/addons/git/605cee21/bt-mqtt-gateway. Here I modified the start.sh and added the line
sed -i -e 's|"config.yaml"|"../config.yaml"|' ./config.py
directly after
echo "Found config file at $config_path . Copying it now."
cp $config_path /config.yaml

After restart is working. I'm not sure if pressing the button "Rebuild" (the right one) is necessary. I did it.

now log file looks like this:
Found config file at /share/bt-mqtt-gateway.yaml . Copying it now.

any idea about this new one? I tried to find it on internet but not too much info about it

[Micha70]

Looks like you have a problem with your bt-mqtt-gateway.yaml.... Did you ever used the bt-mqtt-gateway standalone? Or do you start directly using it as HA add-on?

[antoniomolram]

I was doing it with the HA add-on directly. I will try the standalone option.

[antoniomolram]

thank you for your comments Micha70, it was as you said a bt-mqtt-gateway.yaml error, some whitespaces issue.
