[Resolved] Console shows "Index of /console/" only. Seems like it reset completely, but didnt complete.
-
I did the sysupgrade this morning using the same firmware file s you did. I also installed the consol manually and logged in and made some settings. Then I shut it down and now in the evening I boot the 2+ and check the console. I only get the index page. I'm using the power dock and shut down the 2+ with it's switch.
-
I ran into the same problem with my Omega2+. After some tinkering, I was able to fix it by running (via ssh or usb tty):
/overlay/upper/etc/init.d/console restart
I did not have to downgrade the firmware.
-
@Scott-Williams Gonna have to keep that in mind. This is my first foray into this kind of device and programming. I got the Omega2+ on a whim cause it sounded cool. I had no idea I was going to have to be a old school sysadmin to be able to effectively use it.
-
@Brad-Buskey I'm right here with you. I booted this thing on for the first time this morning. I have extensive Linux experience on servers and workstations, but the layout of the Omega2 is a different beast as it's not Debian or Red Hat based. Now that it's setup, it seems pretty cool, but the setup was way more intense than I was expecting. In fairness, the Raspberry Pi and Arduino have been in the market for several years and you have to expect some things like this on an initial launch.
-
@Scott-Williams which fw version are you on? I don't have init.d under /overlay/upper/etc
-
@Anders-Öster 0.1.9 (b149)
If you don't have it there, perhaps you didn't install the console initially through the setup? You can also install it with:
opkg update
opkg install onion-console-base
-
Ok, I think I always installed it manually like that.

If you where paying attention to the Kickstarter Video they mentioned to do things as Tony Stark. They just forgot to communicate that we have to be expert as he
-
I had a glimmer of hope after using /etc/init.d/console restart. It brought the console back to normal but after a restart, it was back to just showing Index of /console/.
It seems like the memory has issues keeping the files.
-
@Brad-Buskey After using your downgrade steps, I got this message:
root@Omega-B1A3:~# sysupgrade omega2p-v0.1.8-b148 Image metadata not found Invalid image type. Image check 'platform_check_image' failed.Hopefully there will be an upgrade that fixes this...
-
@Marty-Mickelson Try a different image file. there are plenty to choose from in the repo.

@Brad-Buskey Hm, so I tried using b150 and it seemed to work. I was able to go to the console page and start through the setup wizard again. It had issues with the wifi step. It showed my wifi networks and I chose the same one I've been using. It said configuring wifi for a really long time so I decided to restart it. I SSH'd to it and ran the install again. This time the upgrade failed writing to the firmware. The lights turned off and wifi doesn't work. When I turn it on, the lights blink for a few seconds, then go dark. I think I bricked it.
I'll look for how to manually fix it if it's possible. For now, I'm going to go drown my sorrows.
-
I ran into the wifi issue as well, after restoring from a mess I created. I ended up connecting via ssh, running wifisetup and setting it up that way. when you go through the web set up it will detect it is already connected and you can skip the wifi part and move on to the next part.
-
@Brad-Buskey did you have to connect through the usb if the wifi didn't work?
-
no, it showed up on my wifi list on my PC. but you can do that through the Serial connection if you have a doc that supports that (Expansion Dock or Mini Dock).
-
@Brad-Buskey como hiciste la conexión en serie con el muelle EXP?

@Brad-Buskey
my onion omega 2+ worked fine for 4 hours
But when I turned it off and then turned it on again, I connected to its AP. And this is what I get
Index of /console/

Still I get the same results

@Jonathan-Gerard-Joseph
If you didn't find any useful tips in this fairly old thread... there are lots of same or very similar topics in the forum.
Plese read one of them - for example this one Get Index of /console/ instead of Console.
You can find also another method in the official Onion Omega2 Documentation how to setup the Wifi network (the Wifi station) eg. bywifisetupand/or how to (re)install the Console with ssh.Good luck!

@Jonathan-Gerard-Joseph when i first got my omegas this happened to me several times . then, rather than just pulling some plug or switching off what i did was enter reboot via terminal or ssh, wait for the omegas led to go off and then stop the power. in about 11 months of use it has not once corrupted the start up/console by using this method. others may say this does not matter, in fact the admins say to just cut power is fine, but in practice it seems to matter.
