During the initial setup, the web interface 'hung' during the firmware upgrade. I reloaded the browser and was able to login to the console.

Running oupgrade -c, I found I needed to upgrade still.

When I ran oupgrade, I got the error message:

/usr/bin/oupgrade: local: line 378: not in a function

I went looking in the Onion GitHub repos and found this patch at https://github.com/OnionIoT/oupgrade/commit/941a638283e2acfefe5fdab33886cdd672d949a8

I made the one line change to the script and was able to run oupgrade.

You'll also need to run the onion os update command to get the new apps once you've upgraded the firmware.

I guess some of the boards didn't get the latest patches before they were shipped?

Cheers,

Emma H.

Thanks, Emma!

So there's three ways you can upgrade your Omega2 Pro if you are on firmware v0.3.0 b207 or lower

1. Use the browser-based setup wizard, the steps can be found here
2. Follow our manual firmware installation guide, just note for step 1, you can find the latest Omega2 Pro firmware here
3. Make the fix to oupgrade as mentioned above

Once you've installed the latest firmware, oupgrade will work as intended

How would I install the apps via the command line?

1. Legacy Console
2. Node-Red
3. Code Editor

I did hit a massive snag - I was using Firefox on an iMac "connected" to the Onion at 192.168.3.1 and using the busybox terminal program on the Onion itself. Problem was I couldn't type the dash symbol (between the zero and equals keys) - the key worked everywhere else except in busybox. Tried a wired keyboard on the iMac and the dash key still didn't work. Curiously the minus key on the number cluster of my wired keyboard did work allowing me to type the BIN file's name properly.

Anyone else found something as daft as that?

the link address for "images" is [on chrome]
http://repo.onioniot.com/omega2/packages/onion/images/images/

and for "packages" is [on chrome]
http://repo.onioniot.com/omega2/packages/onion/images/packages/

I think the main problem is that there's never any clear indication that firmware updates, Onion OS updates, or Apps have been properly downloaded or installed, or if/when rebooting the device is necessary. Now that I've finally got the device up and running, I'm reluctant to ever apply any other firmware or Onion OS updates ever again, because it always results in problems. I encountered the exact same issues with my Omega2+.

then removed the reference to $verbosity in the wget command below.

Note that since oupgrade has been fixed, you can install the latest version and then use it to upgrade your firmware:

opkg update
opgk upgrade oupgrade
oupgrade
