Why do updates bork my systems?

Louie1961 · Sep 18th 2023

I haven't made any changes to my two OMV installations in months other than to install updates as they are released. It seems to be quite frequent that after an update, my screen won't render correctly on either system, and but I can fix it with a ctrl-F5 command. What is that about? One is on a raspberry pi4 and the other is a Xeon E5 machine. Both are running the latest release of OMV

Unfortunately the errors I am seeing are not the red font "software failure" notice. For instance today, the login screen was scrambled after the last refresh. Everything was bunched up in the upper left corner of the screen. I did a ctrl-F5 as a guess and it fixed it.

It never hurts to do. Have you never had to do that on a public web site? I know I have. Whenever there is a rendering issue on a web page anywhere, the first thing I do is ctrl-shift-R.

Never had to clear your cache or refresh a page to get different content?

Nope.

Nope.

I have to admit that is odd
