wayner 3 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Thanks Hoopster. I did see some discussion about moving the network setting from bridge to host, I assume that is what you mean. I wasn't really in a loop you as it hadn't even adopted my devices yet. Quote Link to post
wayner 3 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Here is the advice that I received on the Unifi forums: Quote You can first upgrade to 5.6.40 to get all the firmware updated, then you can upgrade to 5.12.35 if you don't have any UAP AC's, UAP AC v2's, UAP AC OD's or PicoM2's. The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a readily available 5.6.40 version for unRAID. Perhaps I can try 5.7 and see how it goes. Worst case scenario - can I just manually upgrade the firmware on my UAPs (and USG if required) from an ssh session? Quote Link to post

The "adoption/disconnect" loop "fixes" also address just getting devices recognized and adopted. Changing to host mode is one thing some users needed to do (me included on to get devices recognized - then I set it back to bridge after adoption). You will likely also need to set the Controller Hostname/IP to your unRAID server IP and Override the inform host. Edited December 19, 2019 by Hoopster Quote Link to post

They also don't support docker instances (which is what this container is) so you won't get much help from Ubiquiti. Quote Link to post
wayner 3 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 I saw that so I haven't mentioned on the Unifi forums that I am using unRAID. It looks like I have two options to get upgraded: 1) Jump right in and jump to 5.12.35. Then I may have to ssh into the UAPs and do a manual upgrade and potentially do some other manually stuff to get them running. 2) Install controller 5.6.4 in Windows. Then I will probably have to adopt all of the devices, upgrade them to the latest version. Then install the docker version 5.12.35 and adopt the devices into the docker version. Any feeling on which is easier? I have at least one of my UAPs with newer firmware so maybe I will do step 1 and ensure that I can get that UAP adopted and then work on the other four.

See my saga documented in the linked thread when attempting to go to the 5.9.x/5.10.x controller from 5.6.x at the time I made the container switch. The controller/container has been very stable since I went through all this. You may have to SSH into devices and manual set-inform on them to get things kick started and you will need to make sure things are done in the proper order if you have out of date firmware not supported by 5.12.35.

wayner 3 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Last night after I upgraded to the new container, and things didn't go well, I rolled back to the old container with 5.4.60. I then had to do a bunch of futzing around to get the controller to re-adopt the UAPs. In some instances a reboot was enough, but on one or two others I did have to manually issue the set-inform command, and even that didn't work on one of them - I had to restore factory defaults and start over.

wayner 3 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 I upgraded the container to 5.12.35 and then had to ssh into all of my devices and issue the set-inform command. But everything seems good now. Thanks for your help. p.s. My WAPs were running 4.0.15.9872 so they appeared to be above the minimum version for 5.12.35. I am in the process of updating them.

montery 2 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Hey everyone... Ok, I'm really embarrassed to be asking this, but, is there a default Username/Password once you have the docker installed? Quote Link to post
wayner 3 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 I believe that ubnt/ubnt works for the devices - maybe for the docker as well? Quote Link to post
montery 2 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Nope... reading the controller manual, it's supposed to ask me for a admin username and password... but it didn't. So I thought the docker had a default username/password for first time setup. Would it be the username/password of the AP's? Quote Link to post

The first time you connect to the webUI at https://<your ip>:8443 you should see a setup wizard that asks you for a username and password. Quote Link to post

There is no user/password for the docker container. There is for the controller UI and for USG/APs/Switches, etc. https://help.ubnt.com/hc/en-us/articles/204909374-UniFi-Accounts-and-Passwords-for-Controller-Cloud-Key-and-Other-Devices You should be asked to change username/pw when you enter the controller the first time and in the controller you can designate another user/pw for device access.

wayner 3 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) So it looks like we are going to have more fun in around 15 months. Unifi just announced that a bunch or products are being EOLed. So it looks like that for controller versions that come after March 2021 you will no longer be able to configure the EOL devices, which include: UAP-Outdoor UAP-Outdoor+ UAP-Pro UAP-IW UAP (v1+v2) UAP-LR (v1+v2) UAP-AC-EDU UAP-AC-IW-PRO So we may need to keep a legacy controller version of whatever was the latest as of March 1, 2021.

The problem had to do with some oddities in the Cache drive with a cd: user: Transport endpoint is not connected error. I deleted the appdata\unifi-controller folder. A reboot later and a re-install of the docker, and I can assign my user name and password. Quote Link to post
dukiethecorgi 5 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Where would I place my config.gateway.json file? This is for a USG 3P router. I've tried placing it in appdata\unifi-controller\data folder with no effect. Quote Link to post
wayner 3 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Pretty sure it goes in \appdata\unifi\data\sites\default Quote Link to post

cktulsa 1 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Huge thanks to the Linuxserver.io team for this Docker container. I just set it up on my existing Unifi network and migrated from my old controller (running on a DigitalOcean cloud instance) using the Unfi controller's Site Export Wizard. The process was flawless, and I had all of my devices up on the new controller in about 5 minutes. Both controllers were on 5.12.35, and all devices were up-to-date, so that probably helped a lot. 1 Quote Link to post
uiuc_josh 0 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Hello, I have a weird docker-ism where my docker always shows that I'm in need of an update. The docker install is on 5.6.42. I can pull the update, but on next check, it will always say I need to pull a new version. Weird. It's not a big deal, but I've attached my docker settings and the "header" on the docker summary page. Thanks guys--if you have a free minute or know what causes this, I'd appreciate the insight! Josh PS: I have a similar cert issue that dorgan's having, except I can manually override the Chrome objections and go to the site. Not sure how to get a properly signed cert from the IP address I have the docker on like I do with the main unRaid server site. Edited January 3, 2020 by uiuc_josh Forgetfulness. And age.
