Thank you for your reply Mallah and although I neglected to mention it in my 
post, I did run ./gradlew ofbizBackground after the reboot

Your suggestion to check for listening ports was one that I hadn't thought of 
or tried. For both before and after reboot, netstat does show the server 
listening on 8443

Here's what's reported before the reboot:

Before starting the web interface:
udp6       0      0 :::47361                :::*                                
20755/java

After starting the web interface:
tcp6       0      0 :::8009                 :::*                    LISTEN      
20778/java
tcp6       0      0 :::8080                 :::*                    LISTEN      
20778/java
tcp6       0      0 :::8443                 :::*                    LISTEN      
20778/java
tcp6       0      0 127.0.0.1:10523         :::*                    LISTEN      
20778/java
udp6       0      0 :::47361                :::*                                
20755/java

Here's what's reported after the reboot:

Before starting the web interface:
udp6       0      0 :::49491                :::*                                
1321/java

After starting the web interface:
tcp6       0      0 :::8009                 :::*                    LISTEN      
1359/java
tcp6       0      0 :::8080                 :::*                    LISTEN      
1359/java
tcp6       1      0 :::8443                 :::*                    LISTEN      
1359/java
tcp6       0      0 127.0.0.1:10523         :::*                    LISTEN      
1359/java
udp6       0      0 :::49491                :::*                                
1321/java

Any other tips will be very helpful because I don't know what else to try?
