Cannot Modify or Delete Items

[nolan_garrett]

Hello,

I am running the very latest OH2 snapshot from 8/22. I am struggling to update a subset of my items. This message occurs in my logs:

2017-08-23 10:02:30.668 [WARN ] [thome.io.rest.core.item.ItemResource] - Cannot update existing item 'TXNR5010BasementOnkyo_Zone1_Power', because is not managed.

When I attempt to delete the items, I see this:

2017-08-23 10:04:34.136 [INFO ] [thome.io.rest.core.item.ItemResource] - Received HTTP DELETE request at 'items/TXNR5010BasementOnkyo_Zone1_Power' for the unknown item 'TXNR5010BasementOnkyo_Zone1_Power'.

I originally had errors in my logs similar to this after an upgrade, but I don’t any longer after multiple restarts.

Any ideas on how to find the items that are broken or unmanaged, clean them up? I don’t mind recreating them if I know which ones require recreation and cleanup.

You use an item-file?
When U used one, the items will not be editable over Paper-UI.

These items have all been configured via Paper UI, not an items file.

Try the smarthome commands:

HowTo: Manage OpenHab 2 configurations

Hi @mbuchberger1967, There has been a major change since I wrote the original post with regards to how OH2 stores the configs. See here: Many of the commands in the original post still work but they are more related to bindings and their configurations (not so much for items, sitemaps, things, etc) I would go the way that @Udo_Hartmann recommends (keep your customized configuration files and reinstall) Another way would be: Karaf console, then: smarthome:links clear smarthome:items clear…

I will check it out. I have a LOT of items and things. Clearing all items and things is a huge challenge. I will see what options I can come up with.

[nolan_garrett]

Just did some testing and the "smarthome:items remove " option says it was successful - yet the item is not removed. I am hesitant to try a clear and remove everything.

@nolan_garrett

yet the item is not removed.

Did you ever try deleting the contents of the cache and tmp folder? Just a guess, maybe it helps …

No luck. OH2 and Karaf continue to be unable to remove the items at all. I am on build 1023 currently.
