Newb here.
I installed openhab using
sudo apt-get install screen mc vim git htop
when I go
http://192.168.1.238:8080
it does not connect (impossible to connect error)
How to troubleshoot
p.s.I do have Home Assistant with duckdns on it, not sure if that is a problem
yes I know I had to install it first. Now I did.
But have this error
pi@hassbian:~ $ sudo systemctl start openhab2.service
pi@hassbian:~ $ sudo systemctl status openhab2.service

Did you check whether you have all the prerequisites: http://docs.openhab.org/installation/index.html#prerequisites
You can also check the syslog file (in /var/lib) and check for error messages.
I installed ZULU, now

So seems all good.
But in browser

Sorry /var/log
Just some other thought…I was trying once to put both systems on one
system too and was not unable to resolve some conflicts that arouse. Was
trying to remember the details, but …nothing…it may have and to do
with port conflicts but I really don’t remember anymore, except that I gave
up and took two separate systems.
