Next time please use the command mv /cash stfn82 followed by sudo openhab-cli clean-cache :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

??? What is that supposed to do?

I guess it moves some cash to @stfn82.

does this the same stuff like
sudo rm -R /var/lib/openhab2/cache/*
and
sudo rm -R /var/lib/openhab2/tmp/*

Never mind.
I found (again):

Hi all, the huge pace of development continues and we have thus another monthly update for you:

openHAB 2.5.5, see https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/releases/tag/2.5.5 for the list of changes.

It is available on our download page as well as in the Linux package repos and as a Docker image. Have fun!

It appears it was available for installation before the announcement, this confused me a bit :slight_smile:
But good to see this. Great work!

That is what should be done but was not done previously. Be sure a new version is actually available before announcing. Making it available is not an instantaneous process.

There seems to be an issue with the Ubuntu repository

That is the wrong repo for the Stable release just announced.

Still an issue

Had the same issue and I fixed it by using the following repository for stable:
deb https://dl.bintray.com/openhab/apt-repo2 stable main

According to our official documentation the official stable repo is in bintray.

Corrected, Thank you
Took me a few times looking at my apt source to see what I was doing wrong,

A quick message to let you know that the Freebox binding is no more working in distribution 2.5.5, the authentication to the server is systematically failing.
I already proposed a fix, I hope that it will be merged quickly.

something has changed again and previous logging from jsr233 rules has stopped working. I don’t see any changes in the changes list that could impact this. It is working correctly with 2.5.3 and 2.5.4 releases.

Someone else reported something similar and it was resolved by touching the org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg file…

That sounds more like a workaround than a resolution.

have not yet tried this, but curious how this will solve the issue if the openhab process is started from 0?
