How to load older FW version

I would like to load an older FW version, i.e. 5.04
I have now 5.07 so the web IF tells me I'm up to date.
How can this be done over the command line?
Where can I find the FW image files?
Thanks.

I see that is not possible over the web UI, but I see no technical reason why that shouldn't be possible.
I am pretty sure there is a way, so that is why I asked. Upgrade or downgrade, it is still an image load.
I made some backups with the FW 5.04, I loaded meanwhile the 5.07 and now I cant restore the settings, I get some errors.
I am not sure if the new FW has problems, or it is simply incompatible with backups created with previous versions, but I think its worh a try to downgrade.
So again, could you please give me some instructions on how the load the FW from the shell.

Well, it is, but such files are not loaded on our server.
5.07 was proven to have restore working, so I believe the problem is not in the firmware. Logs might help. Also please provide the backup if possible. As last case may be remote access will be needed.
Do you use UZB or RaZberry?

I'm also not possible to do a restore with Firmware 5.07.
Tried it on Razberrry 1 and 2 with 5.07. On Razberry 1 with Firmware 5.04 the Restore was possible.
The Backup was made with Firmware 5.07...

Hi PoltoS, thanks for replying.
I use RaZberry
This is the the message in the z-way-server.log

I would attach the complete log and the backup file but it looks like whatever extension I use for the files I get an error: The extension is not allowed.
I could email it to you or some other way if you tell me how.

Oh, this is enough... I already see the problem.
Can you show few lines of the log on Z-Way start (lines with controller.data.SDK, controller.data.ZWProtocolMajor, controller.data.ZWProtocolMinor). We will add it in 2.3.1 asap.
As a workaround please do ip:8083/JS/Run/zway.controller.data.SDK="6.51.09" and then try to restore again

The proposed workaround worked!
Thanks for that.
As for the data you requested (from the same log where I had the errors), I found only :
Code: Select all
[2017-03-10 07:16:10.451] [D] [zway] SETDATA controller.data.SDK = ""
[2017-03-10 07:16:10.451] [D] [zway] SETDATA controller.data.ZWlibMajor = 4 (0x00000004)
[2017-03-10 07:16:10.451] [D] [zway] SETDATA controller.data.ZWlibMinor = 38 (0x00000026)
...
[2017-03-10 07:16:10.522] [D] [zway] SETDATA controller.data.ZWVersion = 5 (0x00000005)
[2017-03-10 07:16:10.522] [D] [zway] SETDATA controller.data.ZWaveChip = "ZW0500"
I found no traces of:
controller.data.ZWProtocolMajor, controller.data.ZWProtocolMinor

After upgrade of my UZB to firmware 5.07 it is not working anymore, the stick is recognised but adding nodes is not possible, it causes a crash and I have to a restart it. What can I do to 'revive' it?
