TypeError: Hass.create_task() got an unexpected keyword argument 'name'

[dbrb2]

I updated predbat last night - but now seem to be stuck in that I can neither upgrade now downgrade.
I wonder if I can somehow fix this locally to allow the update from

Installed version v8.31.20
to
Latest version v8.32.3

Currently attenmpts to upgrade fail - presumably because predbat never gets far enough to allow for an upgrade?

you can manually downgrade by copying whichever release you want from github https://github.com/springfall2008/batpred/releases/tag/v8.31.20

unzip the 'source code (zip)' file

stop the predbat addon

copy all the .py files from the zip to /addon_configs/6adb4f0d_predbat

restart the addon

[gcoan]

before you do that though, I am running the latest release with no issues on upgrading. have you tried stopping and restarting the predbat addon or doing a full shutdown and restart of HA and all addons ?

[dbrb2]

Ah OK.
Yes I tried that - same issue. Perhaps the underlying issue is related to HA not to predbat....

maybe, what version of HA are you running? Please provide more details of your setup as per the issue template

You should be able to downgrade using the instructions above
