Does this problem occur often? If so may you can have a script run once a week or whatever suits your needs to clear the cache and temp files automatically. I usually do it manually with:

sudo service openhab2 stop && sudo rm -rf /var/lib/openhab2/cache/\* && sudo rm -rf /var/lib/openhab2/tmp/\* && sudo reboot

You can change the reboot to service openhab2 start if you would rather not reboot.

hi there,  
Clearing the Cache does not solve the Problem. i have the Problem everytime.  
but only with ios app and local Connection. with ios app and Cloud-Connection everything is fine.  
in the browser - everthing is fine.

regards

Hi Ralph,

Here’s a link that you may be interested in [https://community.openhab.org/t/ipcamera-new-ip-camera-binding/42771?u=h102](https://community.openhab.org/t/ipcamera-new-ip-camera-binding/42771). It’s lengthy but full of good info. I would use OH with camera’s but seems to be a bit much for a RPI 3. Should be no hardware issue for Windows server.

Best of Luck
