Hey, sounds like a Habmin related problem?

i cannot access anything on paperui, habmin, or habdroid. habdroid says jersey isnt ready yet, habmin says server is offline, and paperui just doesnt load any pages what so ever. should i re install openhabian and not install habmin?

but like i said before, habmin is so useful for zwave and most of my system is zwave based.

also, how do i access the karaf logs? i cant see any logs to see what could be going on.

No, you may use habmin of course. I’m just saying that this sounds like a Habmin related issue. openHABian installs openHAB but does **not** do any changes to it. All problems you have after setup are most probably unrelated to openHABian. Looking at the log is a very good idea. If you find a serious problem and it’s not already discussed here in the forum, it would be a good idea to open a new thread on it.

While connected to your machine with ssh, type:

`ssh openhab@localhost -p 8101`

The default password is: habopen

</div>

You need to first connect via ssh on port 22, then make another local connection as @Benjy said.

Another option: you can open the karaf console to all interfaces. To do that, please first connect via ssh (22), then type `sudo openhabian-config`, then select the option “Karaf Console”. After that you may connect from your local machine to your openhabianpi on port 8101

I get this error when trying to update openhabian:  
 ![](https://community-openhab-org.s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/original/2X/9/93f6a370f0795405fde16a56352e9b7159631ecf.png)

What can I do?

And I want to update the zwave-binding to get the newest definition of chris’ database.

If I disable and reenable the zwave-binding - will it be reloaded from the net in the current version?

Looks fine to me 😉 There is no error.

To update openHAB and all it’s addons, just upgrade normally:

```auto
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

```

Given that openHABian is mainly intended to be akin to an openHAB appliance, one wonders whether this shouldn’t be configured by default. Of course there are concerns with opening up a service like this, particularly one with a default user/password…

Not sure what you mean but no, you’ll never ever have to execute ssh with sudo.  
Can you tell me about the problem you are seeing?
