I’m currently still on openHAB 2.5 and obviously get an error from apt when I periodically check for outdated software packages on my Raspberry Pi 3B+.
Should I also remove the apt repository link to Bintray since it’s apparently gone (403 Forbidden error messages), or should I remove the trusted key from /etc/apt/sources.list?
The solution was already given in the announcements here to download the kar file and place in the addons folder.
Yes. openHABian now should offer to do that for you on start.
They did not state they were running OpenHABian.
Running sudo openhabian-config did the trick!
There are two errors that come up in relation to this.
openHAB errors in the logs failing to download and install any add-on.
Error from apt/yum/etc. indicating it cannot download the list of packages from bintray.
Downloading the kar file only fixes 1. To fix 2 one needs to eliminate the link to bintray from the repos used by the package manager (e.g. apt). openHABian has an option to do that for you. For those who ran an apt upgrade prior to May 1st the upgrade did this for you. However, those who failed/did not know to run an upgrade prior to May 1st will still have an entry in their sources list pointing to bintray and running apt update will generate an error.
For the two solutions in openhabian:
userdata/etc/org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg : located?Thanks for you help!
In openHABian you don’t.
It installs the openhab-addons package which contains the .kar and puts it where it’s needed.
Where it has been ever since. But you need not and should not mess with it.

Hmm…This apparently has not hapened on my RPi 3 Openhabian 2.5…
Error downloading mvn:org.openhab.addons.bundles/org.openhab.binding.mail/[2.5.0,2.6)

This has occurred after doing an update in the configuration tool.
Is there a way out of this or should I just chuck it and go with OH3?
Version of Openhabian? (not openHAB)
the login screen say OpenHABian openHAB 2.5.12 (Release Build)
Elsewhere on the screen: openHABianPi 4.19.66-v7+ #1253 SMP
Because you have configured OH to download addons (“remote” setting in addons.cfg if I remember correctly). That has nothing to do with openHABian.
if that was set, then it was not recently (at least as recent as my addled old brain can remember…).
And remote=true is commented out in addons.cfg.
So, remote=false might be required?
/var/lib/openhab2/etc directory. So, there is no /var/lib/openhab2/etc/org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg
And the only .kar files on the system are:
/usr/share/openhab2/runtime/system/org/apache/karaf/deployer/org.apache.karaf.deployer.kar
/srv/openhab2-sys/runtime/system/org/apache/karaf/deployer/org.apache.karaf.deployer.kar
o
So, it doesn’t appear the system has ever gotten the files locally.
So, setting it to remote=false would do what?
And the corresponding setting in UI ?
that is strange because it is part of the openhab2 deb package.
Ok, don’t know why I didn’t see it before. But, the find command does find it. I’m getting lost, I guess.
find / -iname '*.mvn.cfg' 2>/dev/null
/var/lib/openhab2/etc/org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg
/srv/openhab2-userdata/etc/org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg
After I updated the config, cleaned cache and tmp and restarted, the config file looks like:
org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.repositories = https://openhab.jfrog.io/openhab/libs-release@id=openhab,https://jcenter.bintray.com/@id=jcenter,https://openhab.jfrog.io/openhab/libs-release@id=openhab@snapshots
and I still get the error:

Any more troubleshooting pointers?
I don’t know if this is possible but would having a DNS entry to always point to where ever the files are be a good idea?
That way if something like the bintray situation happens again then all is needed is a DNS change and the links would all work and no users would notice and everything would function.
Just an idea.
There are probably reasons this hasn’t been done before. Who knows?
