This is a new upgrade. The upgrade is available only as a web update.

How to upgrade
To upgrade a running system, make sure you don't have any activities running such as uploads, downloads, print jobs etc. Then log in as admin in web-ui. Choose "Settings" menu entry. Choose "Software update" in the sub menu.

New features and fixed issues
  • New Easyfind system on B3, now handling IP updates even if behind another router
  • Print server updated to support even more printers
  • Updated minidlna server (minidlna) to latest
  • Some minor bug fixes

Hi Johannes,

You should probably make this a sticky so it's at the top of the forum.

Cheers.

After updating to version 2.5.1...

When I try to update the system again I get the following message:

"Cannot connect to the updater daemon; Please contact support"

Regards,

Pontus

It works well here (just tested again), what version were you at before? Please restart your B3 and try again. If it remains contact support (support@excito.com) so we can dig deeper. Thanks!

Thanks for fast reply!

I upgraded from 2.5.0.2 - and of course I restarted my B3 before posting in the forum :-)

I'll send an e-mail right away!

Hi

I have also this problem and I have restarted the B3. I have upgraded from 2.5.0.2 too 2.5.1. When I use Putty and via ssh login as su and use the command apt-get update and apt-get upgrade there is no problem.

Best Regards
Jon

Ok, done now. Update as usual works fine again. For those of you who updated already and have a non-working updater, please update manually (apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade) and reboot, and you are done.


Really sorry for the hazzle and thanks for the quick reporting.

Can I comment on the layout of this subforum (Software releases)?

It gets a bit hazy with all the topics being announcements except for the one that is added the latest and ends up at the bottom of the screen (currently your 2.5.1.1 release announcement). I know the first comment was to make this topic a "sticky", but I think you'd better change the state of all the topics back to regular.

My 0.02

Sorry again, it's just me being sloppy. Making them sticky is the only way to make them show in order (if not sticky the one with the latest comment shows up on top). Latest post fixed now.

I would just like to say that using the manually update works great to go from 2.5.1 to 2.5.1.1 - now everything seems to work as it should!
