openHAB Cloud connection refused. "onRequestFailure"

I’m trying to get the openHAB cloud connector working with my fresh install of OH3, but I get the error “openHAB connection error: Connection refused” when accessing https://home.myopenhab.org. The attempted connection shows up in my frontail log, so I don’t think it’s a port/firewall issue. Here’s the trace log I’m seeing:

did you change your secret on the cloud connector?

Yes, I updated the UUID from /var/lib/openhab/uuid and the secret from /var/lib/openhab/openhabcloud/secret. It seems like it’s partially connected because it says the system is online and at least one log message seems to indicate it connected (see below).

I think the problem is that openhab isn’t listening on http://localhost:8080 and instead only listens on http://192.168.xxx.xxx:8080. Running sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN | grep 8080 shows that localhost is not being monitored.

java 70476 openhab 103u IPv4 668443 0t0 TCP 192.168.xxx.xxx:8080 (LISTEN)

Additionally, the sudo systemctl status openhab.service shows that the system is arping on the wrong interface? 755950 arping -w 5 -C 1 -i virbr0 192.168.xxx.xxx

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

I finally found the issue… /var/lib/openhab/etc/org.ops4j.pax.web.cfg was setup to only listen on my 192.168.xxx.xxx IP. I changed address to be org.ops4j.pax.web.listening.addresses = 127.0.0.1,192.168.xxx.xxx, where x’s are my IP.
