It can happen that you run into trouble while installing Home Assistant. This page is here to help you figure out the most common problems.

pip3: command not found
This utility should have been installed as part of the Python 3.4 installation. Check if Python 3.4 is installed by running python3 --version. If it is not installed, download it here.

If you are to succesfully run python3 --version but not pip3, run the following command instead to install Home Assistant: python3 -m pip install homeassistant.

No module named pip
Pip should come bundled with the latest Python 3 but is ommitted by some distributions. If you are unable to run python3 -m pip --version you can install pip by downloading the installer and run it with Python 3: python3 get-pip.py.

No access to the frontend
In newer Linux distributions (at least Fedora 22/CentOS 7) the access to a host are very limited. This means that you can't access the Home Assistant Frontend that is running on a host in your network. Check the Post-installation section on the Getting started page and follow the instruction that match your distribution to allow access to port 8123.
