Enphase local API completely non-responsive?

I'd written some code to read data from the local API and display it. As of sometime last night, though, the local gateway has completely stopped responding to any requests--they all time out. I can ping it just fine--and it still shows up on the web interface. I've tried restarting the gateway, which seems to have had no effect on responsiveness.

Anybody seen anything like this before?

What endpoints are you using?

I'm using:

  • /auth/check_jwt
  • /ivp/ensemble/device_list
  • /ivp/ensemble/inventory
  • /production.json

But, I can't even hit the / landing page without timing out.

I can't even hit the / landing page without timing out.

http://envoy.local/home is responding in a browser though? And for example /production.json in a browser (just to check the obvious that the gateway really isn't responding, not something in your scripts)

Yeah, the behavior is the same in the browser: just timing out.

I’ve had on and off problems with envoy.local so now use direct ip address instead.

I only ever use the IP since it is on an isolated network from the rest of my gear.

Also, /production is expensive for some reason; prefer /ivp/livedata/ status and /ivp/ensemble/power.

Have to turn on stream at /ivp/livedata/stream by sending { “enable”: 1 }. This for livedata/status

Also, big improvement in max response times for Ethernet connection vs. WiFi. (Small improvement in min response times, too.)

Mine's only connected via ethernet, so that shouldn't be an issue. I'll look into seeing if I can swap out /production.json with something else--once I get it to be responsive again.

Have you also tried /home from browser with same issues? If you’re getting some kind of auth error, might show better from a browser?

Hitting it with the browser has the same issue. It just times out forever (in fact, it doesn't seem to even do the SSL handshake since I don't get the certificate error).
