Can't update OMV on Odroid HC2

buliway · Sep 22nd 2020

I have some trouble when trying to update OMV.

Looking at similar issues on the forum led me to the conclusion, that it might have something to do with the way OMV connects to the internet, or more specific a DNS issue.

I have tried some of the suggestions in the other threads, but no luck so far.

The timestamp of OMV was off even though I have activated NTP server. I managed to get the time right again, but that did not help either.

I have tried pinging 8.8.8.8 and it goes through, but google.com does not.

I’m running OMV 5.5.6-1 (Usul) on a Odroid HC2.

Some of the errors I'm getting are these:

When I try to open ‘armbian-config’ I get the following message:

Warning: Configuration cannot work properly without a working internet connection. Press CTRL C to stop or any key to ignore and continue.

The apt-get update command gives these error messages:

If I try to update Portainer in OMV-Extras I get this error:

Code

Web port:: 9000
Opt-out :: 1

And the 'Update Management' does not show any updates at all.

Hope you guys can help.

In the GUI of OMV in the network settings add an DNS server, or better two; usually one of them should be your router

e.g. 8.8.8.8,192.168.1.1

buliway · Sep 23rd 2020

Thanks, but that did not work either.

I had already tried it with just my router ip as DNS.

Why is this DNS issue occurring now?

My system has been running for a year with no problems.

And for anorther problem!

It is possible that I have just disabled my ethernet connection

I was fiddeling around looking for a solution, and I think I choose to disable instead of choosing DHCP.

Is there any way in now?

My router can see the OMV and it has the normal IP. But I can not connect i any way.

Can I access the SD card in some way and edit the ethernet connection through there?

Edit:

This is what my config.xml shows under Interfaces.

I can see that method says manual, can I just change it to Static or DHCP in the config file or is there more to it than that?

Try omv-firstaid from CLI

Try

wget http://packages.openmediavault.org/public/pool/main/o/openmediavault/openmediavault_5.5.11-1_all.deb

Hope you guys is up for a little more of your magic.

I still can't update OMV.

I have tried what you suggested and been looking through all the threads that I could find in the forum regrading my problem, and I can see that I'm not the only one. But non of the suggestions given in those works for me.

When I run omv-firstaid and go to configure network interface, this is what I see:

My /etc/resolv.conf contains nothing at all. However there is a resolv.conf in /etc/resolvconf/run that contains nameserver 1.0.0.1

The output of ls -al /etc/resolv.conf is this: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Dec 29 2019 /etc/resolv.conf -> /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf

And apt-get update results in the following error.

When you use omv-firstaid, do you get an error message?

That is how it is supposed to be.

Nope.

You can try to manually add the nameserver to /etc/resolv.conf

Code

nameserver 1.0.0.1
nameserver 192.168.0.1

If I try that through nano resolv.conf I get an error saying 'no such file or directory'.

I just put the SD in a Linux machine and now the resolv.conf contained the following.

Code

# This file is managed by man:systemd-resolved(8). Do not edit.
#
# This is a dynamic resolv.conf file for connecting local clients directly to
# all known uplink DNS servers. This file lists all configured search domains.
#
# Third party programs must not access this file directly, but only through the
# symlink at /etc/resolv.conf. To manage man:resolv.conf(5) in a different way,
# replace this symlink by a static file or a different symlink.
#
# See man:systemd-resolved.service(8) for details about the supported modes of
# operation for /etc/resolv.conf.

nameserver 1.1.1.1
nameserver 1.0.0.1

I added nameserver 192.168.1.1 but still no joy

That is also my thread

And that helped me getting back into the system, but I'm still not able to update OMV because of a DNS issue that I just can't figure out.

macom · Sep 25th 2020

Did you edit the correct file?

nano /etc/resolv.conf

After done

systemctl restart systemd-resolved.service

and post the output of

systemctl status systemd-resolved.service

That seems to do the trick.

The output of cat /etc/resolv.conf is now

Code

And I'm now getting updates in the GUI

ls -al /etc/resolv.conf

Is the there any thing that I should be aware of in the future with this problem?
