Web update was not successful #1070

Closed hokie21 closed 8 months ago

hokie21 commented 8 months ago

Steps to Reproduce

I ran a web update with current version V1.18.14 and expected new version v1.19.02. Everything appeared to be fine. No errors were shown during the update process.

Expected Result

Current version: V1.19.02

Actual Result

Following the unsuccessful update, the current version is shown as V1.18.14 on the about web page. I then tried to run bash .genmonmaint.sh update from the SSH command line. This script gives me just a prompt with nothing else shown. No error was shown, but no text from the script was shown either. startgenmon.sh works just fine to start or stop genmon. Should I just reload everything and start over?

Version Info

current version V1.18.14 and expected new version v1.19.02.

Have you ever updated genmon successfully before? If you did not install per the wiki instructions then the upgrade process will not work.

You mentioned a prompt when running genmonmaint.sh, can you provide more details or a screen shot? I don't have enough info to provide any suggestions.

If you did not use the 'git' command to install, then the upgrade will not work

I've updated it in the past. I was able to look at the "history" command and I confirmed that I did use the git command for the installation. Here is what I see when I run genmonmaint.sh.

Try this:

 bash ./genmonmaint.sh -u

Once you update then you must restart genmon like this.

bash ./strartgenmon.sh restart

That fixed it. Thank you!
