I have have a problem with the Gardena-Binding for 2 months. I have OpenHab 3.4.2 (updateted from 3.4.0 last weekend).
My system runs in the following error after 3-5 days:
[ternal.handler.GardenaAccountHandler] - Error 403 Forbidden, {“Message”:“User is not authorized to access this resource with an explicit deny”}
When I create a new API-Key and secret, then it works vor some days and runs in the error again.
In the github someone talks about a fix - but I can’t find it fpor download anywhere.
Have someone an idea how I can fix the error?
it was fixed yesterday in the 3.4.x branch but neither a new 3.4 patch nor a build .jar file has been released yet. you have to build your own jar file with the repo or wait until the next release.

I have the same problem. Tried the latest 3.4.4 jar. But without success. I still have the same error in the logs:
2023-05-05 19:27:31.182 [WARN ] [ternal.handler.GardenaAccountHandler] - Error 403 Forbidden, {"Message":"User is not authorized to access this resource with an explicit deny"}
Once your token is blocked, you’ll need to generate a new one in the Husqvarna portal. The fix just ensures the (then newly generated) token is not blocked again.
Hi all, many thanks for all the information and the fix. Wanted to finally start using my Gardena irrigation solution again and was running into this issue as well, currently running OH3.3.0.
Now I want to upgrade from OH3.3.0 to OH3.4.4 which should resolve the issue for me, as far as I understand (plus I need to generate a new token). Before doing so, I have a funny question:
When looking at the (3.4) release notes, it says: “Due to Husqvarna Authentication API change, bridge now requires application secret instead of username and password. Delete any existing bridge and re-add it, please make sure to update all automower things to use the newly added bridge.”
Just to be on the safe side, as I have not touched my OH objects for a while: All my Things and Items have been defined in the UI. When I need to delete the existing bridge, will this also delete existing Things and/or Items related to this bridge? I’m asking because I have a ton of Items (for all the valves, etc.) and re-creating them would be horribly painful.
Or, do I just need to create a new bridge and then, in the still existing Gardena irrigation control Thing, I just need to select the new Parent Bridge instead, and everything is fine (and all Items are also still there)?
Ok, by coincident found similar information in a completely different discussion. It’s indeed very simple. Delete the Bridge Thing (the “system account” Thing), re-create it with the same ID and add the Husqvarna API key and secret, done. Nothing else will get deleted and if using the same Thing ID (gardena:account:<ID>), all other Things and Items continue working immediately.
