I am interested in trying the Milestone 6 build, but it doesnt appear in the download screen on the website yet?

534

@bjovas try sudo apt-get update/upgrade.
In the ssh console.
Thank you @Kai for all of your hard work.
Upgraded to M6 works great after sudo reboot now.
Openhab2 Strong :muscle:

You are giving a lot of information to help you :sunglasses:

See the “Testing Release” section (which contain the Milestones) in:

536

You’re right, I had missed to update the website. Should be there now as well!

Don’t thank me, thank all the immensely active maintainers and contributors! I am merely packaging and building the stuff :sunglasses: .

@Kai I couldn’t agree more, I have always acknowledged all of the contributors to OH. (large and small).
I apologize for not doing that in my last comment.
I mentioned you in relation to the releases.
I’m sure that a lot more work goes into what you do then a few words you presented in your response to my comment.
I am so very grateful for OH!
Thank you to EVERYONE for all of your help.

Newbie here - please redirect me if I´m in the wrong place. I just installed 2.5M6 and The Tellstick Binding. Navigation to Things I get the following status displayed from the Binding: Status:
UNINITIALIZED - HANDLER_INITIALIZING_ERROR io/netty/handler/ssl/JdkSslContext
Error from logtellstick error.txt (16.9 KB)

I then installed 2.4 and the Binding worked fine.

A milestone in apt is always considered newer than a snapshot regardless of their dates so moving from testing to snapshot is the only case where you would need to do the above to upgrade. Otherwise use sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade to get the latest version.

Are you sure, I had S1745 installed and it didnt upgrade to 2.5.0 m5 / m6 or rc1. I had to do a sudo apt-get install openhab=2.5.0~m6-1

And apt stated (in dutch) that it is downgrading S1745 to m6…
