Openhab.log error byte stream as response

, ,

openHABian 3.4.3 on rPi4 with 4GB

Yes, dated version, but I’ve seen this on v4 as well.

What am I seeing:

2025-11-01 15:28:02.094 [ERROR] [ab.core.ui.icon.internal.IconServlet] - Failed sending the icon byte stream as a response: null
2025-11-01 15:28:02.095 [WARN ] [org.eclipse.jetty.server.HttpChannel] - /icon/solarpanels
java.lang.IllegalStateException: ABORTED
```

I looked everywhere, even put the icon in the path being complained about; still pops up… BUT…

I found something here:

… but what do I do with this info?!

Thanks; nice find, but none of it applies; did not open the sitemap on the iPhone; did not change an icon in the sitemap. this error pops up randomly… and have seemingly enough memory free.

But, it might not be worth spending too may brain cycles on this; as I:

a) can live with it
b) may eventually kick myself to go to v5?! :slight_smile:

You may have enough free and if so you could make the change suggested and allocate it to openHab program which may not have enough memory. It is worth a try. The iPhone sitemap stuff is irrelevant but the symptom is the same.
