[SOLVED] Openhabian Frontail stopped working

Hi,

I’m running latest openhabian image and stable OH2.2 version on a rpi3. Suddenly the log viewer (frontail) stopped working over night. I run the “sudo systemctl status frontail.service” command and this is the output:

* frontail.service - Frontail openHAB instance, reachable at http://openHABianPi:9001

I’ve tried to reinstall it several times through openhabian-config, but the openhab log viewer still doesn’t work. When i press the openhab log viewer in openhabianpi:8080/start/index, I get a “This webpage is not available, ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED”, as if the web server is not running,

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Best regards
Chris

What happens if you use
http://openHABianPi:9001

Exactly the same :frowning:

Have tried to reboot several times, and now upgraded to OH2 latest snapshot. Still no difference… The log files are not corrupt, as i can tail the log files from ssh.

What web server is frontail using?

Anyone?

So, I finally figured out this as well. I saw some post on this forum regarding similar problems after upgrading OH2. I stopped OH2 and cleared the cache and tmp folder. Then I opened openhabian-config and run a update. After restarting OH2 everything is working fine! :slight_smile:
