Sansumg Binding

OH 2.5(yes i know its old lol)

Tried installing it got this error. however, it looks like it keeps trying to install it forever…how do i stop this?

2026-04-01 11:53:52.343 [ERROR] [core.karaf.internal.FeatureInstaller] - Failed installing ‘openhab-binding-smartthings’: Error:

**Error** downloading mvn:org.openhab.addons.bundles/org.openhab.binding.smartthings/\[2.5.0,2.6)

Well, Samsung eliminated the API that binding was developed to use so it’s not going to work anyway. A new binding has been developed but you’ll need to upgrade to a later OH version to use it.

It’s been many years since I last looked at OH 2.5 but assuming you tried to install this add-on through PaperUI, to stop it from trying to install it you can:

  1. stop OH
  2. edit $OH_USERDATA/config/org/openhab/addons.config and remove “smartthings” from the list of bindings.

Thanks Rich…always a genius. Appreciate it.
