This was a clean install using the APT install guide directly from the Openhab website. Prior to this current error i had a “address in use” error when checking the logs i saw permission denied on the the /var/log/openhab folder can anyone tell me the proper permissions for those files, i changed them to openhab for owner and added +x permissions which brought me to this current error.

I cannot use the pre built image this is and existing lamp server with many other things already running on it.

Bruce_Osborne · September 19, 2020, 9:09pm

First of all, you should not need the addons package. That is mainly for systems with no Internet connection.

I know that on version 2.5.0 there were problems for new installations with both in stalled. That was fixed in 2.5.1 but may be broken again.

I would revert the change with regard to the IP address and check if that works.
Changing the ports only shold be sufficient for what you would like to achieve.

i removed the X on the openhab.log permissions which seemed to get me further when running from the service i get the following page when i go to the webpage

The interesting thing is if i stop the service and run the start-debug.sh from the usr/share/openhab2 folder I get the command prompt and if can see the basicUI and paperUI on the web pages and can add things etc.

Once i type logout at command prompt and restart the service it breaks.

Wolfgang_S · September 20, 2020, 10:06am

remark: removing the X on the openhab.log shouldn’t have any impact
what are the exact changes that you did to solve the address in use problem ?
in case you revert the changes and temporarily disable the web service that runs on 8080 does OH work then ?
have you tried to use 0.0.0.0 instead of your IP address ?

renegade66 · September 20, 2020, 8:21pm

To honest I did not do anything to resolve the address issue, when i run the software using the start_debug.sh from the /usr/share/openhab2 folder it allowed me to see the web pages and do some preliminary setup. It was after doing that the service stopped giving the address error but i still cannot see the webpages when the service is running i only see them when i run start_debug.sh now.

I changed commented out the address line in config file and it has not changed the above.

I get this when i run a status when the service is running

So as it stands right now if i manually run openhab2 it seems to work but when i start it as a service i get sometimes the front page and most of the time it get this.

If i run it under start_debug.sh i get this

When its run that way i get the main page showing basicUI and paperUI options i do note that is is not showing Habmin or Habpanel links there anymore despite my adding them yesterday.

So it seems that running it in manual start debug mode doesn’t really fix it either it may break it even more.

renegade66 · September 20, 2020, 11:03pm

I started openhab2 under the setup-debug script and deleted all the configuration i did as far as bindings etc so it is basically back to installed state with exception of the items list and stuff i added from home builder.

After a full reboot without running anything and with the address option turned off in config so that part is default the ports i still need changed so i left them at 9090 i issued this

openhab-cli showlogs

I get this block in the logs repeated

It keeps telling you “permission denied”. It is an OS permissions problem for the user account running OpenHAB.

Benjy · September 21, 2020, 12:43am

Use the command to see current folder permissions:

openhab-cli info

Your folders are probably owned by root, use:

sudo openhab-cli reset-ownership

to fix them and please use code tags in your posts to make them readable:

```
Paste into your post like this
```

renegade66 · September 21, 2020, 6:56am

Thanks I looked for the code tags in the menu but didn’t see them hopefully I will get it right in this reply.

One thing to note since my last post i reinstalled java with no change and openhab updated itself as well but that did not change anything either so this code is all from the latest version of openhab that just came via apt.

openhab-cli info

I did the reset-ownership anyway and the output result was the same as above i did a clean cache and then checked to see if it would run here is the terminal cap of the commands and the output

Hopefully there is something in the code tags that will give a clue at what to check next, from what i see there is an issue with karaf for sure, and i suspect it has something to do with this server being root but i don’t know anything about karaf other than what i learned in the last few days.

Cheers and thanks to all for the responses.

I am not sure what the original issue was but the following got me to the main pages and installed everything that was included with expert mode. I can now see the main page with all the tabs for each UI.
