Issue updating

[DynaMight1124]

Hi

Every few weeks or so I usually do a 'sherpa upgrade all' last time was 15/09 so ran one today.

When I originally ran upgrade all, I got this: sherpa v240930-stable warn: the 'Qboost' QPKG is enabled. This may cause problems with sherpa applications. Please consider stopping this QPKG in your App Center. proc: assign QPKGs by state ... mknod: `/var/run/sherpa/packages/states/action.messages.pipe': No such file or directory /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/sherpa/cache/sherpa-manager.sh: line 1233: /var/run/sherpa/packages/states/action.messages.pipe: No such file or directory proc: upgrade independent QPKGs ... 100% (19/19), 19 skippedstatus|ex|package|OWhisparr

Had to CTRL+C to end. So I upgraded sherpa only and it did successfully upgrade so then did another upgrade all, it seemingly ran successfully however didnt upgrade any packages.

Output was: sudo sherpa upgrade all sherpa v240930-stable warn: the 'Qboost' QPKG is enabled. This may cause problems with sherpa applications.

Its a TS251B device so should be ok with any newer packages?

Thanks Gavin

Hey Gavin. 🤓

The TS-251B should be fine (I run sherpa on a TS-251+ without error).

I'm investigating that mknod error now... I'll post back shortly.

I've made a tweak, but it's only available in the unstable branch for-now.

If you'd like to try it, please run:

sherpa follow unstable
sherpa upgrade new

If you get the same mknod error, please manually stop with CTRL+C again, and let me know.

To revert back to the stable branch (I don't recommend staying on unstable as it's ... unstable. 😉 ):

sherpa reset

Hi, thanks for getting back to me.

That worked perfect.

done: user setting 'Git_Branch = unstable' has been saved. done: package cache cleared. done: reports cleared. done: logs cleared.

sudo sherpa upgrade new sherpa v241001-unstable warn: the 'Qboost' QPKG is enabled. This may cause problems with sherpa applications. Please consider stopping this QPKG in your App Center. note: the sherpa QPKG will be auto-upgraded. done: actions complete.

I have reverted back to the stable branch.

Thank you for having a look, sorry for raising the issue, never quite sure if I'm nitpicking or raising something that helps.

Thanks Gavin

@DynaMight1124

That's great. Thanks for reporting this and for testing the fix. 👍🏽

This fix will be available in the next stable release (should be less-than 24 hours from-now).

Yes, it's OK to question any-and-all errors you see. Especially ugly shell errors that occur in the midst of a sherpa message. I'm glad you mentioned this, else I wouldn't have known this problem existed.

Cheers! 🤓
