I started the update an hour and 45 minutes ago and this message "Performing Actions: Please Keep This Window Open While We Perform Some Actions" hasn't gone away. The box is right behind me and AFAICT nothing has been happening. I opened another browser tab to the system and it doesn't appear to be doing anything. Nothing is showing up in the syslog to indicate it's actually doing anything at all. How long can I expect this to stay up?

Update usually complete within 30min. If nothing happening or on-going then you should close it and restart. Post screen capture would better know whats going on.

Pls make sure the access PC have normal internet access too.

At 5 hours now and nothing new. I can open a new tab to the system and it still shows it running normally, and shows Update Available at the top. This is literally the only thing it's shown during that time.

These are the only files in /var/log that have been written to since I started the update:

-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 34 Jul 3 18:40 gitcount

-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 22K Jul 3 18:40 gitflash

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 517K Jul 3 21:19 syslog

-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 314K Jul 3 21:26 graphql-api.log

This is the only updates in syslog in that time:

I simulate if the access PC haven't Internet access, it stay in same screen outlook as your screen capture. So pls ensure the access PC Internet service is normal.

No issues with internet access.

As mention, the access PC internet service, not Unriad self internet service.

Once resume the access PC internet service, then update on-going as normal.

I'm updating the system on the same computer that I'm posting this from; it's in another browser tab. This PC definitely has internet access.

And completed now.

Does both in same network / subnet ? Any blocking between them ?

Could you try on other browser or PC ?

Nope, everything is on the same network. Only thing in between this PC and the server is a switch.
