Hello everybody,

I´ve installed openhab in a docker.
Everything seems fine, but I have no access to the configuration site in browser.
Maybe somebody can help me?

Raspian code:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ docker run --name openhab --restart always openhab/openhab:latest
++ test -t 0
++ echo false

  • interactive=false
  • set -euo pipefail
  • IFS=’
    ’

  • NEW_USER_ID=9001
  • NEW_GROUP_ID=9001
  • echo ‘Starting with openhab user id: 9001 and group id: 9001’
  • id -u openhab
    ++ getent group 9001
  • ‘[’ -z ‘’ ‘]’
  • echo ‘Create group openhab with id 9001’
    Create group openhab with id 9001
  • groupadd -g 9001 openhab
    Create user openhab with id 9001
  • echo ‘Create user openhab with id 9001’
  • adduser -u 9001 --disabled-password --gecos ‘’ --home /openhab --gid 9001 openhab

  • exec gosu openhab tini -s ./start.sh server
    Launching the openHAB runtime…

When I go to my webbrowser and type in: http://localhost:8080
I will see the error: Website is not available

Thank you very much!
Best regards

Hi Fabian,

you need to map ports to be able to access websites inside your Docker container. You find these and other configuration options explained on the Docker Hub site for openHAB

You cannot blindly install something without RTFM. !!
Either from the openHAB website or from Docker Hub.
