After updating from 2.5.0~RC1-1 to 2.5.0~1 I got a “… [ERROR] [core.karaf.internal.FeatureInstaller] - Failed installing '…” for almost every binding I’m using. I’ve waited for a hour and have done 2 restarts an one full cold reboot but it does not change. I’m always looping in Failed installing…
What process did you use to update?
as usual:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y
I’m on the “Beta Release” track
There are 3 main Repos.
Stable - currently 2.0.0-1
Testing - Milestones & Release Candidates
Unstable - Snashots
You need to change to the Stable repo before running those update & update commands.
Yes it is now “Testing”, formerly known as “Beta Release”. I guess this term was changed some time ago.
And without changing to stable my raspi loaded the 2.5.0~1 as most resent one
Nope. It’s been “testing” ever (well at least as far as I remember back).
Do you have the openhab2-addons and …-legacy packages installed ?
How is your system configured, eventually it is to download the addons (“remote” and “legacy” options in addons.cfg) ?
Sorry, it was definitely “Beta Release” - I have an about 3 years old screen shot in my notices…
I have only legacy = false in my addons.cfg
Can you post the full “Failed installing '…” line?
I had an issue and a number of others have had an issue where the bindings were failing.
The errors were an incorrect %userdata%/config/org/openhab/addons.config file.
Yes, folks said that this file is auto-generated and should not be edited… It appears that if there is an error, the system might not clean up the file on its own.
A similar thread from a few days back:
https://community.openhab.org/t/solved-aeotec-zwave-controller-going-offline/87722
Yes, that is indeed the case. In theory, editing that file should be futile as it should be re-written by the system on its next restart, but manually editing the file, so far, has worked in my case.
I tried to change the addons.config and even tried to delete it let it generate new. The problem still remains, no way install any addon, even not from the scratch.
Now I restored my addons.config and switched back to RC1 and all works fine - all addons are back.
My complete install line was:

Tried it again now a week later and the update works without any problems. I still have no clue what was going wrong the first time.
I’ve done it the same way, with ‘sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y’.
The only difference was that I was stopping openhab manually (‘sudo systemctl stop openhab2’) before I executed the update and started it it again after the update (‘sudo systemctl start openhab2’), but I don’t believe that this makes the difference.
I’ve untagged your ‘solution’ as it isn’t of value to others.
