Help needed with upgrade - failing :-(

MrBov · June 27, 2020, 10:50am

Having issues with my OpenHAB over the last few weeks - having to reboot my Pi 1-2 times a day now. Before investigating that issue (any thoughts welcome BTW) I thought I would upgrade the OS and OpenHAB on my Pi 3 to the latest. So tried doing an:

sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
apt list --upgradable
sudo apt-get upgrade

The upgrade includes a bunch of Raspbian stuff and the latest OpenHAB.

But I get an error on the upgrade which seems to stop everything upgrading.

Any hints?

It looks like an issue updating git.

MrBov · June 27, 2020, 12:26pm

Been investigating and checking things like those listed at https://phoenixnap.com/kb/fix-sub-process-usr-bin-dpkg-returned-error-code-1.

Retrying and I now get more errors…

Why don’t you install openHABian from scratch as I suggested on the other thread ?
Saves the time of debugging an apparently broken installation.

MrBov · June 27, 2020, 12:27pm

Will I be OK to backup and restore from OH 2.5.2 back onto 2.5.6 Markus?

mstormi · June 27, 2020, 12:33pm

I already answered that question in the other thread

MrBov · June 27, 2020, 12:41pm

Was simply trying to follow the guidance to upgrade OH on my old box first and get that to work before migrating elsewhere. Was not sure whether 2.5.2 was a recent enough OH version for the backup/restore to work - soon see.

Installing the latest stable OpenHABian on the Pi4 now. Thanks.
