hello

very happy user since a few years. First on an HP microserver, afterwards on an Odroid HC, now on an (older) HP workstation, with a lot of cpu power (what I was missing on the odroid )

trying to upgrade my installation, so I have the new php (so I can upgrade my nextcloud an ampache).

root@Z800:~# omv-release-upgrade

Upgrading system to 7.0 (Sandworm) ...

This system is running a desktop environment! This setup is not supported.

I get this 'error' ... it i strue I had an X isntallaton, with a xfce instllation that I reached over vnc (it a headless server) an I stop and start this. Now - I understand you want no issues with this (and it would be better to do this is a virtual machine or docker or something, but didnt take the time to fiddle with it.

I tried to remove all the X tings (x11 , ldxe , xfce, ...) but it is still giving me this problem.

what packages (?) is the omv-release-upgrade looking for? so I can really remove them all.

thank you!

thank you for the swift reply, but .....
