Cardiff - Error setting up entry

[jone9618]

Name of Council

Cardiff

Issue Information

Has been working well for a long while. Stopped working a few months ago, and have been unable to reconnect despite erasing and resetting the configuration plenty of times.

I was waiting in the hope that someone else would report an issue with Cardiff. So can't be sure it is not an issue with me - but as I say this has worked well previously and I have retried setting it up quite a few times.

Postcode/House number works on council website.

Here is a neighbouring/valid UPRN for you to try to replicate 100100041710

When I try setting up a new entry the config flow box spins it wheels for a while and then tells me that "Unknown error occurred". The integration then seems to sit there trying unsuccessfully to initialise.

Lots of log messages generated, such as:

This error originated from a custom integration.

Apologies in advance if this is me doing something wrong.

A plus one from another Cardiffian - been fine for ages until a few months ago and no joy reloading or deleting to set up again fresh.

It looks like Cardiff have made a change to their website which is not loading correctly.

If you change the URL in your config to anything else, i.e. https://www.google.com, it will work correctly

I have updated the wiki with this info and will release it in the next version
