Omada - how to upgrade

[elRadix]

How can we upgrade to the latest version?

Good question. Let me take a look.

For now, backup your settings in 5.0.30 and create a new 5.1.7 Omada LXC and restore settings.
In the future I'll have an update script, hopefully. 5.1.7 is real picky on dependency versions.

Is this still the best way to update the software or is there a script?

Hey, I'm trying to update my controller software, but I get this error when I run the update script:

What am I supposed to do to fix this?

I just checked, I gave the container 8 GB and only 2.14 GB are in use, so I'd say no. Memory is 4 GB btw., 1.13 GB currently in use.

I'm afraid I don't understand what you are trying to say, sorry. :/

[tteck]

I'm saying that there are no issues with updating Omada here.
If I cannot reproduce the problem on my side, I cannot address an issue that appears to be functioning correctly here.

[Peacecamper]

Ah, gotcha. So, I guess I have to reinstall?
