core: Insteon Integration breaks on core-2021.7.0 and above!

The problem

The built in integration for Insteon breaks with core-2021.7.0 and above

It no longer connects to the Hub 2 / Modem. Worked fine in older versions now no matter what I do… It will not connect to the Hub 2 making all my Insteon devices no longer useable.

This seems to effect all Insteon hubs / Modems to include Hub 1, Hub 2 and PLM.

Additional information

This issue renders the Insteon Integration unusable and continues to get worse daily!

It was working fine on core 6.6 but the errors listed here are from 6.6.

Please fix this issue as currently my Insteon devices are usable.

Looks like the fix worked for me. I am running this in Docker. Thanks bshep! To apply this here’s what I did:

ssh to my raspberry pi hosting docker and home assistant
Run: docker ps Find the Container ID for home assistant. It should have your version number like 2021.7.1 in the name. You only need the first 4 characters of the container ID. Use this ID in the next step
Run: docker exec -it <containerID> /bin/bash
Run: cd /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pyinsteon/protocol/
Run: mv http_transport.py http_transport.py.backup
Run: curl -o http_transport.py https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bshep/pyinsteon/python3.9-await-fix/pyinsteon/protocol/http_transport.py
Reboot (you probably can just restart home assistant core from within HA, but i did a full reboot) After doing the above I was able to configure a new Insteon integration

Not running Docker. Hassio on Raspberry Pi 4. I can not even get to that directory. So I must wait for the core to be updated for my Insteon to work once more? Best, Donald Harriman @.*** …

try: find / -name http_transport.py

see if it finds the directory pyinsteon is installed at.

I’ve fixed the error and created a PR for pyinsteon, if anyone wants to test you can replace the http_transport.py file with the one from my PR and restart HA

The fix was not in 7.2, perhaps in 7.3?
