suggested Update to 3.0.1 fails, Z-Way installation corrupt!

[michap]

Hi,

I tried today an uprade to new firmware (from 3.0.0 to 3.0.1) - was suggested in interface.

Upgrade finished with a message about a disabled webinterface (?) (do not remember in detail).

I have seen that still 3.0.0 was running and wanted to restart Z-Way - but in /etc/init.d/ was no more z-way-server command

So a restart would not be possible more.
I have killed the running process and tried to reinstall manual via console the current version.

Had to use apt-get remove and purge for removing old app. (there were no productive data inside, it is a review enviroment only...)
After that was installed the current version at new - but again without the start/stop script - AND: without any files in /opt folder !!

Have no running Z-Way in this time - any idea??

So I suggest to be very patient while updating, not sure why this happen.

I have the same problem....

I have the same problem, more or less. Upgrade to Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) and manually copying the config.xml from an old update gets the z-way-server to start. but all devices are gone! I have also no start script and many things missing.

Can confirm similar issue here.

Had to roll-back to 2.3,8 to get all working again.

Had to roll-back to 2.3,8 to get all working again.

is working with

Code: Select all

wget -q -O - razberry.z-wave.me/install/v2.3.8 | sudo bash

... but this cannot be the solution

@PoltoS - is there a right solution in sight?

I did the same upgrade.
After reboot... nothing running from z-way.
Tried a forced upgrade in BASH.. failed.
I had backups, so uninstalled and started fresh.

sudo apt-get remove z-way-server
wget -q -O - https://storage.z-wave.me/RaspbianInstall | sudo bash
now working on 3.0.1

sudo apt-get remove z-way-server
wget -q -O - https://storage.z-wave.me/RaspbianInstall | sudo bash
now working on 3.0.1

I made the same multiple times today - no success.

I think you have not removed the old files from /opt/z-way-server that's why the installation made it work again (with existing files).

Upgrade to 3.0.1 with:

Code: Select all

# wget https://storage.z-wave.me/z-way-server/z-way-3.0.1_armhf.deb
# sudo dpkg -i z-way-3.0.1_armhf.deb

@equathza: Thanks, yes, it will work.

But the main problem is that the Upgrade via UI failed - this will be used by most users.
Second try of users (who want to work with shell) will be the documented upgrade link above - and it is not working too.

I think there is/was a mistake in the install script, and this should be fixed.

Anyway - thanks for your solution, it can help to upgrade

3.0.1 is only for Buster. On Stretch 3.0.0 is the latest. You can explicitly install it, but the script will reinstall v3.0.0
