While updating to the latest build, I ran into some severe errors and now my OH2 won’t start anymore:

After a quick search I saw my apt-cache was 5(!) GB. after apt-clean I now have plenty of disk space left.

But: How do I get my OH2 up and running again? Is there a trick I can use? reboot didn’t help unfortunately?

PS: I’m using openHABian.

I’d recommend the following:

sudo service openhab2 stop
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/openhab2/cache/*
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/openhab2/tmp/*
sudo apt-get install --reinstall openhab2-addons
sudo service openhab2 start

sudo apt-get install --reinstall openhab2 did the trick for me!

oh! me, too! :wink:
I really didn’t like the idea to set my OH2 up again. I do have all the configs, but I have four USB and one RS232 attached for multiple sensors… :smirk:
