Upgrade Scripts for non-interactive major release upgrades (2->3, 3->4, 4->5)

Zitat von Zoki

I would try to fix the repos in /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list./* and upgrade manually, but the info you give is a bit space, so I do not know the state the system is in. The post scripts migrate the database, which may not happen, if you update manually, so you may have to to it manually too.

Fixed the duplicate repos and tried run-parts through the run.d scripts (in hopes of a simple repair) but no upgrades occured. Guess it's off to search on the manual upgrade process. Thanks for the pointers!

apt update should pull omv5 if the repo is correct.

Well, I had some missing dependencies so naturally I had a beer and clicked through.. and installed Chrony which removed OMV4. *sigh*

If I install OMV5 at this point is it basically a fresh start? No way to transfer the OMV4 settings (not that I had customized much)? I still see my several TB of hosted data, I assume the install won't mess up any existing volumes and I'll just have to re-present them to the network.

Just to leave a resolution on my issue, successfully performed the upgrade (apt upgrade openmediavault) and selectively ran files in post.d (skipping deborphan) to restore configuration. Services are working as expected under OMV5 just in time for buster EOL. Will do a fresh install on a new RPi4 once OMV6 goes final.

the update from omv5 to onv6 is very smooth.

OMV6 is final for some time now see https://openmediavault.readthe…o/en/stable/releases.html

Hello guys,

sorry to bother you again with another issue.

I am in the update process from 4 -> 5 with the scripts mentioned at the beginning of this thread.

So i followed the procedure and ended all servicese but ssh,

uninstalled all not used plugins, checked that the grub is still pointing to the right device. I also did the post #9 (omv-extras to github) from

Beitrag

RE: omv-extras repos moving to github

[…]

I wrote a kvm plugin for OMV 5.x that is better than virtualbox (in my opinion). There is even an option to convert the virtualbox vdi disk images to kvm format to create the VM in the plugin. The kvm plugin is fully integrated with OMV as opposed to doing everything in phpvirtualbox (which is not really maintained anymore).

Just because it works fine doesn't mean you should stop moving to newer, supported versions.

I hate giving out these instructions because people will just stop…

Then i startet the update:

First i got the following error 11 and the following errorlog: For me it seems something was still wrong with omv-extras to github.

omv_release_upgrade_to_buster.2022-06-20-223302.txt

Can you check somehow, if omv-extras is switched correctly to github?

Because of the error i uninstalled additionally to the not used plugins my needed plugins, also omv-extras.

Then i started the script again and got a different errorlog, now without bintray. Unfortunately it stops again with code 11

omv_release_upgrade_to_buster.2022-06-21-003152.txt

Another thing is that now all plugins, i uninstalled before, do even not show up anymore in the plugin list. So i don´t know, if this is the reason i got no bintray issues in the log?

i really would appreciate any help on this matter, as i don´t know how to proceed with the update.

thank you so much for your help.

I'm still on OMV 3, and my omv-extra repo points to bintray. What are my options for upgrading to OMV 5? Thank you.

You should be on OMV 6. So, that would a 3 to 4 to 5 to 6 set of upgrades. I never released an omv-extras 4.x package. You would have to uninstall omv-extras and do the upgrades then reinstall omv-extras. Sure would be easier to do a fresh install of OMV 6.x.

Thank you so much for the advice- I will look into a fresh install
