I migrated to openHAB 4.0 yesterday and everything was working quite well for some hours except the fact, that all my Things have gone now. I just see two of them (they have been added GUI based) - but everything that I’ve configured over the years in *.thing files are not visible at in the GUI.
I absolutely don’t know where to start searching for this issue so I’m grateful for every hint.
First place to look is the openhab.log file after startup…Your files should be parsed, one-by-one, right at the start of the log, and any errors the parser finds will be listed there.
Update: As this behavior made me mad (and nearly EVERYTHING of my configuration is file based) I totally removed the OH4 installation and re-installed it again. Since this “special move” the problems have gone
