latest update broke automatic rules

[harre]

I have a simple rule that turn on my lights when it's getting dark. I had stopped triggering now. I have tried restarting without any luck.

I have tried to have just a time activated rule with still no lights going on and off.

Logs doesn't reveal much. Is there a way to further debug this?

Update:
I manually installed latest beta and it started working again

As a simpler alternative to the Astronomy module, I've been very happy using a different module called Daylight that you may want to check out since it's very processor efficient - it creates a binary sensor that turns on at sunrise and off at sunset. The Daylight module works by scheduling a cron entry to run every day at 3:01 AM for calculating the sunrise and sunset times for today, and then updates 2 cron entries (to run at the calculated sunrise and sunset times). To turn a light off at sunset, I simply add an automation rule that's triggered when the sensor turns off.

If you're interested, you can see all of Z-Way's cron entries by running this command:
curl -u admin:[YOUR ADMIN PASSWORD] --globoff 'http://127.0.0.1:8083/ZAutomation/api/v1/instances/2'

The JSON output can be cut-and-pasted into a JSON pretty printer website where you should see an entry for daylight.newdate at 3:01 AM, with daylight.sunrise and daylight.sunset entries at the appropriate time.

In other words, instead of troubleshooting why the Astronomy module isn't working, you can disable and/or delete that module and use the Daylight module.

Thanks for the tip, i also want to turn off the lights in the night when I'm sleeping to reduce light and cost.

I use the Daylight app.
I'm in the UK, but I set my location as in Sweden, the timings are better for me.

How are you detecting when its getting dark ?
An old Generation 3 light sensor ?

Expertui. Expert commands, Device Settings. Set everything to Zero.
Old Sensors have more options after 4.0 upgrade.

Hope this helps towards a solution.

I have attached my rules there are two, one to turn on the lights and one for turn off.

The time component is there to have the lights off between midnight and 05:30.

I know the logs are massive, but that's because I don't know what to look for. I was thinking if there's some more debugging I can enable to pinpoint this issue.

This rules have been working without any issues for like two years.

Any news about this issue? Please advise if I can take more steps into debugging it

The queue seems to be filling up quite a lot.

It's most the nonce report in the list
