UI problems after update

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 11:01am

EDIT:
It seems like, if I wait long enough (several minutes), I can enter the menus. But if I open a new browser fan, I get the same issue again.

When entering Things, and then enter a thing from there, I just get some kind of “updating” going on. I can not enter a specific thing.. Maybe if I wait several minutes again.. Ill give it a try. But something is very wrong here.

Got some serious issues here..

Running openhabian, and just managed to upgrade from OH 4.3.7 to 5.1.
The upgrade went fine, I thought!

But - My issue is.
I can no longer enter “Things”, “Model”, “Items”, “Rules”, “Scenes”, “Scripts” and “Schedule” menu from MainUI /adminiustration/settings”.
Nothing happens when i click these sub menus. But “Pages” works fine though.

I have tried restart OH after upgrad. I have tried reboot my Rpi4 after upgrade. But it still doesnt work.

Sure could need some help here to trobleshoot this one.

Sometimes this sequence helps solving problems where openhab is not starting up normally:

stop openhab
clean cache
apt full-upgrade
reboot your pi
restart openhab
restart openhab
important: check the logs during start of openhab

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 11:27am

I did a full upgrade before I updated openHAB. But I guess a clean-cache might be worth a try.

Oliver2 · December 28, 2025, 11:33am

Don‘t ask me why, but sometimes it helps to have openhab starting up twice or three times.

Oliver2 · December 28, 2025, 11:47am

Did you upgrade to java 21?

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 11:49am

I thought java would be upgrad automatically when I use openhabian? I wouldnt know how to anyway.

Oliver2 · December 28, 2025, 11:52am

No, it is not being updated automatically. I do not use openhabian but I guess there is an option to install java 21 in the config menu.

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 12:03pm

Hmm, I have no idea what to do to be honest. In the openhabian config I can only find this:

As far as I can see, there is a Temurin 21, which is default. (I assume Temurin is a nickname for Java?)

Oliver2 · December 28, 2025, 12:58pm

Temurin is the name of the Java 21 package, developed by adoptium (www.adoptium.net). There are several developers of java 21. Go ahead with temurin and check afterwards by

java --version

that java 21 is the default java version.

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 1:03pm

Seems like its installed.

openhabian@openhabian:~ $ java --version
openjdk 21.0.9 2025-10-21 LTS
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-21.0.9+10 (build 21.0.9+10-LTS)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Temurin-21.0.9+10 (build 21.0.9+10-LTS, mixed mode, sharing)
openhabian@openhabian:~ $

Status as of now.
I can get into all the menu´s but I can NOT get into a Thing.

Oliver2 · December 28, 2025, 1:06pm

Did you clean the cache once more and tried to restart openhab at least twice?

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 1:13pm

Clean cache, and restarted 3 times.

Oliver2 · December 28, 2025, 1:20pm

Please check in openhab console if all bindings are updated and active:

bundle:list | grep openHAB

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 1:34pm

So, this thread is for issues happning between OH 5.0 and OH 5.1 only?

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 1:35pm

Seems like I have to make a new thread insted.

I just love spending time going nowhere, (sarcasme)

mstormi · December 28, 2025, 1:47pm

No, as I did that for you.

Guess what, I, too, just love wasting my time on moderating stuff. /sarcasm off

Kim_Andersen · December 28, 2025, 1:50pm

Seems like they are all running and updated to 5.1

Delete your browser cache and/or perform a hard refresh by clicking Ctrl + F5 (for Chrome)

Tried that. I also tried another browser.. (Microsoft Edge, I usually use Chrome). Still the same issue.

What do the log files say starting from the point where openhab service actually began to restart?
Logiles are here:

/var/log/openhab/openhab.log
/var/log/openhab/events.log
