I updated my Kodi from 18.9 to 19 today. Works fine as it should be.
The only problem i have is, that my remote controls (yatse) cant connect anymore to the kodi database.
Is this a known error or something specific for me?

Yatse is a 3rd party remote software tool. Contacting its developer directly is perhaps a better first step to troubleshoot your problem.

This is because Kodi changed the default webserver settings to be more secure, and so on upgrade to v19 your previous settings got reset. You simply need to reconfigure the webserver settings to permit Yatse (or any other app) to access Kodi.
To do that goto Settings > Services > Control and either confirm that you want to allow external access to the web server without authentication and password (it will warn against this) or enter a password, and then enable allow remote control via HTTP.
