    lol  We all know who's going to have to fix this.  I'll make backups of the existing file(s) first and then restore.

     

    Probably the best way to handle it.

     

    Don't you know it's always your fault, and if it's not, it ought to be.

    If you checked UpdateAssistant against the "Next" release, then unRAIDServer-.plg may still exist.  (I can't remember if I delete it after checking).  But, I would think that when dynamix checks for updates it deletes everything in /tmp/plugins anyways (mobile so not in a position to also check).  Either way, remind me to make sure that I delete the "next" version of the .plg in UA after I'm done with it.

    That would explain it, because that's exactly what I did on all servers.

    When you switch between stable and next selection in the GUI, the file in /tmp/plugins should get updated accordingly, but this requires an Internet connection. If at some point there wasn't an internet connection and a selection switch was done, the old (wrong) file stays in place.

     

    Could this be a plausible explanation for what happened to you?

     

    I normally don't select the "Next" selection on the 6.5.0 server.  I may have done that at one time though just as a test.

     

    The problem is that I haven't made any changes in that server since 6 days ago when it was last booted and it just now showed a new version of unRAID.  

     

    Did you notice that the notification shows the installed version as 6.5.1-rc2 and the new version as 6.5.1-rc2?  How can this situation call for an update?  How can the installed version show as 6.5.1-rc2 when 6.5.0 is installed?  Is this because the /tmp/plugins/unRAIDServer.plg is 6.5.1-rc2?

    My main server is running version 6.5.1-rc2 and I installed now version 6.5.0 on my test server.

     

    Checking for updates manually or automatically on my test server returns each time the proper "stable" version. I can't replicate your issue.

root@ceres:/tmp/plugins# cat unRAIDServer.plg
<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<!DOCTYPE PLUGIN [
<!ENTITY name      "unRAIDServer">
<!ENTITY author    "LimeTech">
<!ENTITY version   "6.5.0">
<!ENTITY category  "stable">
...
...

    Can you delete the file in /tmp/plugins and test again?

    Got 6.5.0 stable.

     

    My servers are in Ohio and the 6.50 server is in Texas.  Yesterday I had a strange thing with Internet access.  It went away for a while and wasn't due to anything on my end.  Could there be a network situation with error recovery that would present the wrong version?

     

    EDIT: There is an unRAIDServer-.plg that shows as next.
