Openhab Docker Interface Binding

Setup, Configuration and Use Beginners
1

HI,
i have deployed an openHAB instance in Docker (https://hub.docker.com/r/openhab/openhab/), and started the openHAB Docker with parameter --net=host.
In logfile i have found that openhab found 4 Interfaces, and ingores 3 of them - but binds the Dahsboard to the wrong interface.
i allready tried to edit org.ops4j.pax.web.cfg in “userdata/etc”, but after restart nothing has changed in log file (org.ops4j.pax.web.listening.addresses = “ip address”)

is there another config or maybe a environment parameter i have to change to bind openHAB in Docker to a specific ip address?

many thanks for help
Chris

Hi,

I have exactly the same problem and tried to find out where I can set up the binding interface for the Dashboard.

I use the OpenHAB docker version 2.3.0-amd64-debian and the interface used is the docker bridge, which is un reachable from my desktop. Aka I can not connect to the Dashboard.

Here are the logs:

Has someone fixed this? I run into the same problem.

any solution ?

on windows I found a solution.

I use this parameters in start.bat:

set OPENHAB_HTTPS_PORT=8448
set OPENHAB_HTTP_ADDRESS=127.0.0.1

After that OH only listen to ip-address 127.0.0.1 and HTTPS-port is changed to 8448. The log file tells, that more ip-addresses are found and only one is used. This message is wrong, but if I check it with netstat -a all went as exspected.

Editing /var/lib/openhab2/config/org/eclipse/smarthome/network.config gives a solution too, and is dynamic
Parameter setting org.eclipse.smarthome.network

Having the same problem. Dashboard is always connecting to the wrong IP address. Changing network.config did not make a difference. Any more ideas how to fix this?

Without being able to bind OH to the correct network, the Docker implementation is pretty useless…

Has anyone found a fix for this?
Changing the network.config file doesnt do anything for me, the behaviour stays exactly the same.
Openhab is still ignoring 3 interfaces and choosing the wrong one

How about setting the address of the interface you want in Paper UI -> Configuration -> System -> Network Settings -> Primary Address?
