Mglomniac Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Hi All - I cannot seem to upgrade from 6.9.2 to 6.10.2. I can do a clean install and that works, however when I try and upgrade from the unraid dashboard, it will not work. I lose internet connectivity to the server when I try and upgrade. I've also tried a fresh usb install and then copied over my config files and that does not seem to work either. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 What server hardware do you have? It might be hardware that needs the 6.10.3-rc1 release to boot with network connectivity. Quote Link to comment
Mglomniac Posted June 12, 2022 Author Share Posted June 12, 2022 I can do a clean install on the sever and have no issues and get it up and running just fine. It's only when I try and update through unraid that it will not work. I doubt it's hardware related - my guess is that there's some setting somewhere that's causing an issue. I don't want to perform a clean install... Quote Link to comment

itimpi Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 How much RAM do you have? you can always do a Manual Upgrade if you have problems doing it via the GUI.. Quote Link to comment
Mglomniac Posted June 12, 2022 Author Share Posted June 12, 2022 24gigs of ram I've tried doing a manual update - but it will not work. I reflash my usb, copy over my config folder and from there, there is a conflict where it won't be accessable either from the gui or on the network. Quote Link to comment
Mglomniac Posted June 12, 2022 Author Share Posted June 12, 2022 it only works when it's a completely clean install. Quote Link to comment

I reflash my usb, copy over my config folder and from there, there is a conflict where it won't be accessable either from the gui or on the network. The instructions I linked to did not even mention the config folder and involved plugging the USB stick into a PC/Mac to do the update. Is that how you did it as your description implies something else. Quote Link to comment
Mglomniac Posted June 12, 2022 Author Share Posted June 12, 2022 Yes, I tired it the way the manual upgrade suggested, and it still will not be seen on my network. The ONLY way I've gotten it to show up is with a clean install. I'm really hoping there's a workaround here as I don't want to spend the hours necessary to get everything set up again Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Couple of things to try: Delete/rename /boot/config/network.cfg and reboot, it will default to DHCP. Iif SSL is enable edit config/ident.cfg on the flash drive and change USE_SSL from "yes" to "no", then reboot. Also you only have one NIC, right? Quote Link to comment
Mglomniac Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 The mobo has two built in NIC's. I've deleted the network.cfg when I did the clean install but upon reboot, it immediately runs into the same issue. I'll try changing SSL to no to see what happens there. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Just now, Mglomniac said: The mobo has two built in NIC's. In that case recommend updating to v6.10.3-rc1, multiple NIC discovery doesn't always work with v6.10.2. Quote Link to comment
Mglomniac Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 Should I try to upgrade directly through the OS to 6.10.3-rc1? or should I manually download the RC canidate, and then perform the manual upgrade? Quote Link to comment

Either should work so go with whatever you think is easiest/most convenient. Quote Link to comment
Mglomniac Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 I tried updating from the OS and it still does not connect to the network at all. I cannot even get firefox to load properly on the gui screen to show me the dashboard. Quote Link to comment
Mglomniac Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 I also deleted the network.confg and changed ssl to no, still nothing. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Update manually, download the zip and extract the bz* files to the flash drive overwriting existing ones. Quote Link to comment
Solution Mglomniac Posted June 15, 2022 Author Solution Share Posted June 15, 2022 So after all of that - unseating the ethernet cable, updating and then reseating the ethernet worked. 🤷♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment
