Openhab won´t start after upgrade to 4.0.3

Setup, Configuration and Use Migration

Hi all,
after upgrade to version 4.0.3 openhab won´t start. I got the following error.
● openhab.service - openHAB - empowering the smart home
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/openhab.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2023-09-17 11:51:08 CEST; 3s ago
Docs: Introduction | openHAB
https://community.openhab.org
Process: 69570 ExecStart=/usr/share/openhab/runtime/bin/karaf ${OPENHAB_STARTMODE} (code=exited, status=255/EXCEPTION)
Main PID: 69570 (code=exited, status=255/EXCEPTION)
CPU: 987ms

After the update I cleaned the cache by openhab-cli command.

Information:
OS Linux mint Victoria, all available updates installed
Browser Firofox 117.0.1. for mint
Java Zulu11 11.0.20.1-3

I can´t figure out what the exitcode means and what to do to get openhab4.0.3. started.

Any help would be welcome.

Any entry in openhab.log file ?
Anything shown by sudo journalctl -u openhab ?

It looks like it has something to do with the exception in row 2. If that is correct, then is the question how solve this exception.

Kind regards,

Leo

Solution
I’ve made a full backup of the current configuration, things, items and so on by sudo openhab-cli --full command. After that i’ve uninstalled openhab 3.4 and deleted /etc/default/openhab and /var/lib/openhab. I upgraded zulu to 17.08.1 and installed openhab 4.0.3. After restoring the backup via sudo openhab-cli restore everything works fine.
