I was trying to clear my cache and it came up with an error saying the file contained items, somewhere in this mess I stopped this instance of OH and think I restarted it (just logged into Putty again), now I cannot access the webserver xxx.xxx.x.xx:8080, any ideas ?
Well, first thing is to verify that you did in fact restart it. If you did, are there errors when you do a systemctl status openhab2? Are there errors in openhab.log?
A vague “saying the file contained items” is almost meaningless to us. We need the error as it appears in your logs.
The error from systemctl indicates a permission problem on a lock file. Stop openhab systemctl stop openhab, and clear the cache sudo openhab-cli clean-cache. You also might want to reset the file ownerships. sudo openhab-cli reset-ownership.
