Did you install the binding from PaperUI? If so then restart OH a few times and see if that helps.
sudo systemctl restart openhab2
If you installed the openhabian image then you can also use the openhabian-config tool and run fix permissions option.
ok thanks, so far one restart has not cured the error
the astro binding was installed from Paper UI but I have openhabian-config tool installed.

Open the tool and select number 10 Apply Improvements then select numbers 11, 13, and 14. This plus two restarts of OH should help.
