Setup process loops, cannot access console

Merthin Webber

Hello,

I'm trying to setup an omega2 with a mini dock. I follow the setup instructions on Onion-ABCD.local but once the setup process is complete it tells me that

You have successfully set up your Omega!
The Console has been installed! Please refresh your browser to open the Console

Once I refresh the page, I just get sent back to the beginning of the setup process.

I've tried the alternative of sshing into the device and installing the console from there but I get the following error when running console-install-tool:

Collected errors:
opkg_conf_load: Could not lock /var/lock/opkg.lock: Resource temporarily unavailable.

Any ideas or even just links to some help ? I haven't been able to find any solutions by looking up the errors

@Merthin-Webber try rebooting and then running

opkg update
opkg install onion-console-base

Btw, we have some updates related to OnionOS coming out soon, stay tuned!

@Lazar-Demin thanks for your swift answer. Unfortunately the update command does not work:

Downloading https://repo.onion.io/omega2/packages/core/Packages.gz
*** Failed to download the package list from https://repo.onion.io/omega2/packages/core/Packages.gz

both http and https don't work

EDIT :

Nevermind, I've found the root of my problem, the omega2 does not seem to like network SSIDs that contain special characters. I changed my network's SSID and now all is fine. Thanks for your help
