Ok, I am on Main:
dpkg -s ‘openhab’ 2>/dev/null | grep Config-Version
reveals an EMTPY result
openhab-cli info
reveals Version: 3.4.4 (Build)
Now I start the recording and I start 02
and it comes back extremely fast. Here is the log: (edit: → deleted log)
Sorry but that’s a useless log.
Enable debugging in openhabian.conf, and do a proper recording so the output is ASCII-readable.
Use script or a different terminal program,
Sorry, my bad, due to the reinstall the debug setting got lost and I forgot about it. Here you go.
oh344-oh4.log (111.2 KB)
When i start again SSH i have this information:
sed: can’t read /var/lib/openhab2/etc/version.properties: No such file or directory
With Legacy openhabian, I have this splash screen:

When switching openhabian to main or openhab4 I have some issues:
A cosmetic issue since some time: installing deCONZ with a non-standard port (e.g., 8007) is possible, but openhabian’s final screen says that port 8001 has been selected.
Actually, installing deCONZ needs a special fix since some days due to a Debian error. Therefore, openhabian fails to install as well.
I don’t see anything unusual about this log. Option 02 is supposed to update all packages to their latest version, and so it does. You didn’t select any of the 4X options.
Take a recording of the action that you believe should behave different.
what’s your point? Posting logs without any reasonable description is pointless.
The main version don’t install Firemot and i have an issue with /var/lib/openhab2/.
I also try install Firemot again via openhabian but the problem persist.

openhabian@openhabian:~ $
That’s just a cosmetic problem and does not happen on new installs.
This thread is explicit about testing the changes and procedures for OH4.
No, this happend to me o a fresh install done in unattended mode.
Even openHAB 4M3 was installed, the wrong path is used here.
I tried many different options, almost all I can think of and I always ended up with either 3.4.4 or openHAB2.
“You didn’t select any of the 4X options.”
The option that I think would make sense the most is
which ends up with 3.4.4
I then tried 03 | Install openHAB Install or upgrade to openHAB 3, → same result.
An 41 option will end up with OH2 (All warn about OH2 and I tried it once and ended up with a corrupt openHAB install, so I had to purge SD card and start from scratch)
│42 | Upgrade to latest openHAB Upgrade OS environment to openHAB current release → also ended up with 3.4.4
So which option or sequence do you like me to try and record? What 4x option do you think of?
Was anyone successful with the latest openhabian / openhabian-config to upgrade from a downloaded 3.x version to 4.0? And if, what options did you use?
You obviously cannot upgrade your release version as OH4 is not released yet, so you need to switch to milestone using the corresponding 4x option first.
The code I asked you about determines how openhabian proceeds. For the system you showed the output for, it should not result in OH2 being installed.
Send the output of
source /opt/openhabian/functions/helpers.bash
set -x
openhab4_is_installed && echo 4
openhab3_is_installed && echo 3
openhab2_is_installed && echo 2
Here you go
set -x
openhab4_is_installed && echo 4
openhab3_is_installed && echo 3
openhab2_is_installed && echo 2
+ openhab4_is_installed
++ dpkg -s openhab
++ grep --color=auto Config-Version
++ cut '-d ' -f2
++ cut -d. -f1
+ [[ '' =~ 4 ]]
+ return 1
+ openhab3_is_installed
++ dpkg -s openhab
++ grep --color=auto Config-Version
++ cut '-d ' -f2
++ cut -d. -f1
+ [[ '' =~ 3 ]]
+ return 1
+ openhab2_is_installed
++ dpkg -s openhab2
++ grep --color=auto Status
++ cut '-d ' -f2
+ [[ '' =~ ^(install|hold)$ ]]
+ return 1
so you need to switch to milestone using the corresponding 4x option first.
I now used “41 openHAB Milestone Install or switch to the latest openHAB Milestone Build” but then canceled it during installation (not to break the whole setup) because I saw in the logs that it retrieves OH2 stuff, see recording
oh_set_to_milestone.txt (53.5 KB)
Can you tell me which menu entry exactly you are referring to, so I don’t misunderstand you? 
PS: btw, if it would help to track down the issue more efficiently, I am happy to offer you a session/call between us.
that’s weird and the reason for OH3 not being detected as installed
Ensure you are on main branch and update openhabian-config on start then try again
with logging on. 41 milestone is the correct option.
All with the Firemot issue, also provide the above command outputs and try the update fix, eventually.

Branch: → Selected Main on 01
I am now on
which is weird compared to above because above I was on the 5th of June, now I am back on the 4th of June! 
Selected 02 → just to be sure
and ONLY NOW it is retrieving 4.0.0 m3
Get:1 JFrog testing/main arm64 openhab all 4.0.0~M3-1 [103 MB]
…
and the result I am indeed on
Which I don’t understand why?!Maybe because the openhabian-config version has changed (see above)?
cheers
Stefan
I will cleanly install the system tomorrow from scratch and try again to reproduce it, I guess.
Your dkpg produced a different output than mine w.r.t. the version check.
I adjusted the code again.
Given there’s newer Raspi OS, I’ve also built a new image.
Please try with this one:
Ok, downloaded it and currently installing. I will tell you tomorrow, how it went.
UPDATE:
So, installed that version and it directly comes up with openHAB 4 M3
The only thing that isn’t completely right is the intro message, I guess:
openHAB () under the logo
and the fact that it wants to read something in openHAB2
sed: can’t read /var/lib/openhab2/etc/version.properties: No such file or directory
openhabian config says
openHABian Configuration Tool — [main]{2023-06-08T21:18:26+02:00}(dd99ed3)
Note hat
dpkg -s ‘openhab’ 2>/dev/null | grep Config-Version
still delivers an empty result
The branch is set to
I wonder if this setting still makes sense (downgrade to OH 2)
I haven’t done anything additionally, so let me know if should provide you with more information before I update to the snapshot
Edit ~/.bash_profile the line that sets OHPKG so it reads
if openhab2_is_installed; then OHPKG="openhab2"; else OHPKG="openhab"; fi
It needs to be Version not Config-Version.
What do the code lines in /opt/openhabian/functions/helpers.bash look like for this on your system ?
I replaced
if openhab3_is_installed; then OHPKG=“openhab”; else OHPKG=“openhab2”; fi
to
if openhab2_is_installed; then OHPKG=“openhab2”; else OHPKG=“openhab”; fi
and then logged out and in again. Result looks good
dpkg -s ‘openhab’ 2>/dev/null | grep Version
still an empty result
sudo dpkg-query -l | grep openhab
ii openhab 4.0.0~M3-1 all openhab
ii openhab-addons 4.0.0~M3-1 all openhab-addons
Note that openhabian-config has changed its version again (you may know but I just want you to tell which version I am on)
