Supervised installation not working on Docker 20.x

Describe the issue

Upgrading to the latest Debian 10 stable on ‘healthy supported supervised’ installation makes HA’s components never come back again: supervisor, observer and all dockers including HA

Steps to reproduce

1. Have working Debian 10 installation
2. apt-get update && apt-get upgrade (docker-ce and containerd especially to version 20.x)
3. reboot (even it’s not needed as dockers doesn’t come back up)

After that, the only working ‘docker ps’ docker will be observer with no possibility to come back online. restarting of the supervisor and doing ha su repair helps to get HA (and only HA, without addons) back online But it’s not persistent and lost after reboot.

Enviroment details

• Operating System:: Debian 10.7
• Supervisor version:: latest (2020.12.06)
• Home Assistant version: latest (0.118.5)

What’s quick-fix for those that have their whole house down, is to downgrade docker: apt install docker-ce=5:19.03.14~3-0~debian-buster and restore full-snapshot…

EDIT: Full rollback as in alert until fixed:

apt install docker-ce=5:19.03.14~3-0~debian-buster
apt install docker-ce-cli=5:19.03.14~3-0~debian-buster
apt install containerd.io=1.3.9-1

Please do not respond with “same problem here”, instead click on the 👍 reaction on the first post.

We are aware of the issue but will not have time to fix it until after the Home Assistant Conference.

If Docker doesn’t work, there is not much to bootstrap that can check it. We have an issue here and put out an alert. If you are affected by this, you are running a Supervised installation, which is considered an advanced case and we assume one is capable of handling system administration.

I think you need to rethink what an “alert” means. There’s nothing on the homeassistant.io website, nothing in the blog, nothing in the forums.

@crisflashin The Home Assistant project does not support Ubuntu. Thus the initial post or alerts will not be updated with that information.

ok, fine, I get that you don’t support ubuntu (and completely get that you can’t support every operating system that some user arbitrarily decides they want to use), but it wouldn’t take a lot to update the initial post and the alert (what alert?) to point users at relevant user experiences on unsupported operating systems. That’s just helping the community help itself, and that’s always a good thing.
