[SOLVED] System won't update

[kidfrostbite]

Hello-
I'm currently running: 9.1.5 2024-11-26

I've tried to update to Release 9.2.4, 2025-02-06 several times and while the log indicates that the process has completed without issue, when I reboot I'm still on 9.1.5.

Any ideas about how I might troubleshoot this?

Thx!

Clear your browser cache.

[kidfrostbite]

Clear your browser cache.

I did that, and tried other browsers.

When I SSH in the login banner shows that it's still on the old system:
Release 9.1.5 2024-11-26

and uname shows the kernel for that version (6.6.51)


When I tail /var/log/moode_update.log during update everything seems fine.

[Tim Curtis]

Does the update log show kernel 6.6.74 was installed, along with other package updates?

Try the command below to print the running kernel release.

Code:

uname -r

If the log is correct but nothing was actually updated then its not obvious to me what might be happening.

Still on the older kernel

I wonder if my SD card is going bad. The system seems to function fine, maybe I'll try flashing a new card.

Hello,

I've got a similar issue. It looks like I'm stuck on 9.2.3 2025-01-21

I've run the upgrade to 9.2.5 twice and it's still stuck on 9.2.3.

[Tim Curtis]

Very odd.

I just ran a 923 to 925 update including the post-release patch and no issues.

This is after the update and reboot.

Hi Tim

Yes it is!

I remember ssh'ing into the box and poking around, I saw a bunch of connection errors when I ran 'sudo apt update' to see what happens. There was something clearly wrong with connectivity. 

I then realised just now that I was encountering some strange issues with Windows Update and the Microsoft Store not working correctly on another PC. It turns out that after about a week or two, something in my Vodafone UK Broadband router goes wrong causing these strange issues to suddenly appear requiring a reboot to clear. The bizarre thing is that during all this everything else still works fine, like general web browsing. 

So having rebooted the router earlier, I tried again. And this time, the upgrade worked fine.

I thought I'd put it out there in case it helps anyone else. Sometimes the root cause isn't always obvious!

[Tim Curtis]

Glad its working :-)

[kidfrostbite]

Glad its working :-)

FWIW in my case it doesn't appear to be a connectivity issue - I've SSH'ed in a few times and been able to ping out and do apt updates, which seem to update the indexes without incident. Tim, if you want me to do anything to troubleshoot further I'm happy to help, but if it seems like we're at a dead end I guess I'll flash a new SD card and hope for the best.
