<issue> My.openhab not working

[chrisinkc]

Has anybody else run into the issue of access to the web interface just stops working?  I checked with the openhouse.org site and they are not having any issues.

Everything has been working fine until I tried to open up my IOS app.  It couldn't connect so I tried going to the my.openhab.org website.  That just timed out as well. Its behaving as if my system can't communicate to the my.openhab system.

I am at work now, so I can't test a lot, but I can still remote access into a home computer and then from there remote access to my Pi2 running Openhab.  I can see the log files and everything looks like it is working just fine except when I access my.openhab.com I do not see the corresponding activity in the log file showing the remote access.

I stopped the openhab service and then restarted the service.  No change.  I then rebooted the Pi and logged back in.  No change.

This was all working just fine when I went to bed last night.  Now it isn't.  Very frustrating!

I did some searching and there are a lot of discussions of the SD card becoming corrupt after so many read/writes.  Could this be the issue?  I have only been running this setup for about 2 months now.

Anybody have any ideas?

OK, I went in and decided to do an update/upgrade command just to see if that would help. It did not make a difference for about 10 minutes, then all of the sudden I started getting openhab notifications via my IOS app and now I can access via my.openhab.org again.

The issue is gone, but I still want to know what the heck caused it!

my.openhab is up and down all the time for me also the connects and disconnects are in the logs also. I went to a SSD a month ago the peace of mind is worth $25 to me.  Nice speed up also.

Greg,
Thanks for adding those links! I ordered both and should have them by Wed. I also upgraded my SD card. Now I know why the $5 SD cards at Microcenter are $5! I bought a $12 ScanDisk card and I went from about 1.2MB upload speeds to almost 4MB! While I am making these changes, I am also going to upgrade the Pi 2 with a Pi 3. Hope to have this all in place by the end of next week.

The SSDs give more peace of mind but I still use github.com/billw2/rpi-clone and good cards. On you next trip to Microcenter any chance you would get me some PI zero's
