ERROR There should ALWAYS a local provider available

Setup, Configuration and Use Runtime

Kai? One for you perhaps? Refer code here:
https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/blob/master/bundles/io/org.eclipse.smarthome.io.rest/src/main/java/org/eclipse/smarthome/io/rest/internal/RESTActivator.java

I get this error after trying to set regional settings under Configuration/Settings/Regional Settings. Everytime I go back into this menu in PaperUI, openhab.log spits out about 20 entries of this error, nothing displays on the settings screen in Paper UI for me to alter - its just blank. Any ideas?

Ah my bad, seems my searching skills need honing… found answer here which solved it.

So I hope distro 1064 solves this as well, right?

No it doesn’t, but 1065 does.

I was on distro 1064, so tested it again - set my time zone to “NZ (GMT+12:00)” then as a test, restarted openhab service and monitored the log. Holy smoke… the number of errors logged was ridiculous, too many to report here… errors getting into PaperUI system menu as well, so…

I did an apt-update / upgrade tonight, saw it updated me to 1065. Started openhab again, voila, no issues and system menu is accessible again. The only error I see now, is when accessing OH on my iPhone remotely (via my.openhab) I get:

2017-10-19 23:22:29.281 [WARN ] [io.openhabcloud.internal.CloudClient] - Jetty request 12435930 failed: null

It still seems to work ok though.
