Setup, Configuration and Use Installation

  • Platform information:

    • Hardware: Raspberry Pi 3B
    • OS: raspbian buster lite
    • openHAB version: 2.4

  • Issue of the topic: Hi I followed the guide over at https://www.openhab.org/docs/installation/openhabian.html#other-linux-systems-add-openhabian-just-like-any-other-software but after having all steps completed in the Manual/Fresh Install section the Karaf console is not running, but I need it to install the compatibility layer!

I’ll try it with raspbian stretch instead

3

Why?
Raspbian Buster has already been released and Debian Buster will be the new stable release as of Saturday.

4

Because it apparently doesn’t work

5

I’ll take this as a lesson.
The port of karaf is 8101 not 8081
