hi,
after recent dev hiccups i decided to stay on #1512 for some time…now i switched to 1534 and i do not see the Rest-API (UI) anymore in the 8080 view. also could not see this in paperui as a selection for installation anymore? is this gone now?
And of course, as my main question, why do i see this error message a lot in my openhab.log…
Failed installing 'openhab-misc-restdocs'
Any idea?
Thanks Norbert
The REST Docs are now a UI. So if you install it through addons.cfg, it needs to be added to “ui” instead of “misc” now.
If the error keeps showing you may also need to update this in:
userdata/config/org/openhab/addons.config
Thanks for the feedback.
Like what i did since 2.3, i do not touch addons.config and by now after updating all UIs from before the update are available afterwards…
I installed manually via paperUI the following UI “ui-restdocs - 2.5.0.SNAPSHOT” - but still after a day and several reboots the error message is still arround…once per minute from what i have seen.
Any idea?
So this change @API is new coming in somewhere after #1512?
see your other post, snapshots are currently broken
To expand on @wborn’s reply, if you want the restdocs UI installed via addons.cfg, remove the restdocs entry from the misc section and add it to the ui section of addons.cfg.
I am running OH 2.5.0 SNAPSHOT s1534 here and the restdocs are installed and working correctly on that system. The misc and ui entries from my addons.cfg file are:
# A comma-separated list of miscellaneous services to install (e.g. "misc = myopenhab")
misc = ruleengine
...
# A comma-separated list of UIs to install (e.g. "ui = basic,paper")
ui = basic,habmin,paper,restdocs
[Added for clarification]
I’m referring to text configuration of addons in ${OPENHAB_CONFIG}/services/addons.cfg.
Note that the file I’m referring to (userdata/config/org/openhab/addons.config) is the file which is also used for storing the installed add-ons when adding them using Paper UI.
It’s a different file you’d use when installing add-ons using textual configuration (which is services/addons.cfg). Unfortunately there is currently no way to automatically patch it when there are such add-on changes.
I think with build 1534 the snapshots are usable again. Do you have an example of what is still broken?
Sorry, no I don’t; was just going from other posts of knowledgeable people and waiting to hear otherwise. Glad to hear that things are OK again with 1534…
Hello - one observation concerning snapshot #1534. I upgraded and everything runs fine - except, that I get now this logentry:
2019-02-24 20:47:36.232 [ERROR] [core.karaf.internal.FeatureInstaller] - Failed installing ‘openhab-binding-mqtt1’
Though I havent installed the mqtt binding (and never tried - afaik)
my ( /srv/openhab2-userdata/config/org/openhab/addons.config ) looks like this:
:org.apache.felix.configadmin.revision:=L"2"
action=“mail”
binding=“ntp,exec,mqtt1,weatherunderground,zwave,http1,owserver1,hue,astro,expire1,nibeuplink”
felix.fileinstall.filename=“file:/var/lib/openhab2/etc/org.openhab.addons.cfg”
legacy=B"false"
misc=“openhabcloud,market”
package=“standard”
persistence=“influxdb”
remote=B"true"
service.pid=“org.openhab.addons”
transformation=“jsonpath,map,regex,exec,xslt”
ui=“basic,paper,habpanel,habmin”
Do you have an idea how to get rid of this?
I looked into the karaf console and couldn’t see anything, which hints at mqtt.
Thank you very much!
Just remove mqtt1, from this line. 
Reading is a gift, which not everyone has 
Thanks !
I’m getting the same errors with build 1557. I’ve installed the rest docs adding via Paper UI and it says it’s installed.
My addons.config is empty beneath the UI comment. Can I simply add ui = restdocs (No quotes) and that fill fix the problem?
also have the same issue now with #1558.
Does the error message mean that there is a link to something that does not exist anymore…restdocs not being whatever it was before becoming an UI?
hm, my addons.conf in /var/lib/openhab2/config/org/openhab (not sure if this path is the one to blame)…
i see the following:
:org.apache.felix.configadmin.revision:=L"7"action=“mail,pushover”
binding=“http1,mqtt1,ntp,systeminfo,weather1,zwave,jeelink,astro,weatherunderground,expire1”
legacy=B"true"
misc=“restdocs”
package=“expert”
persistence=“,rrd4j”
remote=B"true"
service.pid=“org.openhab.addons”
transformation=“map,regex,xslt,exec,javascript,scale,xpath,jsonpath”
ui=“classic,basic,paper,habpanel,habmin”
So there is misc=restdocs…is this outdated? i normally do only add/remove via PaperUI.
Do i have to remove it manually via commandline?..if i want the docs again, i can reinstall them in UI from PaperUI?
Thanks
Norbert
Yes just remove the line:
from that addons.config file.
Then restart openHAB and install the REST Docs via Paper UI, Add-ons, User Interfaces:
Hi, i did what you proposed…mostly. i let misc=“” arround but that should not have any impact i guess…
but now i see the following error log in openhab.log
2019-03-23 21:47:49.681 [ERROR] [core.karaf.internal.FeatureInstaller] - Failed installing ‘openhab-ui-restdocs’: Error restarting bundles:
Exception in org.eclipse.smarthome.io.rest.sse.internal.SseActivator.start() of bundle org.openhab.core.io.rest.sse.
ah found the following…again in the snapshot jungle…why didn’t keep calm and stay with #1512 uaaaahhhhhhhh
It’s a known issue. Just restart openHAB and the exception should be gone:
Yesterday I installed 2.5.0-Snapshot with openhabian.config
Since then a have several problem one of them is, that I geht this message several times per minute:
2019-04-01 09:49:28.805 [INFO ] [thome.model.lsp.internal.ModelServer] - Started Language Server Protocol (LSP) service on port 5007
2019-04-01 09:49:28.831 [ERROR] [core.karaf.internal.FeatureInstaller] - Failed installing 'openhab-misc-restdocs'
This two messages rise everytime together! How can I solve it?
Hello,
I have solved, as managed a few posts above.
Go to the directory: /var/lib/openhab2/config/org/openhab
Edit file : addons.config
look for the misc= line and delete param restdocs
reboot
I have the same error, but my addons.config has the following in MISC?
misc=“ruleengine”
Any Ideas.
Thanks
