you disconnected from shore power, powered off the inverter (which should have powered down the fridge), disconnected the battery (one battery???) and then plugged everything back in (so the inverter is off and the battery out of the line, right). seems to me that there are several suspects...
- the single? battery is not enough to power the fridge.
- the single? battery IS enough to power the fridge but it is bad and should be replaced. has it been tested?
- the inverter is not working as it should (are other 120-VAC appliances working as properly off the inverter? TV, microwave, etc.)
