Getting my.OpenHAB to refresh

[Rob Goodman]

Hello,

I am a real noob with this so please be gentle. Plus, I did post this question to the my.openHAB group, but I haven't gotten an answer, so I thought I would try here.

I just started using OpenHAB and My.OpenHAB and so far, so good. However, I changed the names of some of the Items in the .ITEMS file and it does not seem to be reflected in either here, https://my.openhab.org/items or on IFTTT.

I copied the code from the my.OpenHAB documentation as show below, into the MYOPENHAB.PERSIST file, but it doesn't appear to refresh.

Strategies {
    default = everyChange
}
Items {
    * : strategy = everyChange
}

I do see the items correctly listed here: https://my.openhab.org/openhab.app?sitemap=MySite#_Home but when I look here: https://my.openhab.org/items it shows only my old items and says the last update was last week.

I restarted my server but that didn't seem to make a difference.

Any ideas what I should be doing to correct this?

Thank you. 

-Rob

I removed the PERSIST file, put a new one in and restarted OpenHAB. It is now working properly!
