tdnf upgrade doesn't work.

[Spacial]

The tdnf upgrade command doesn't work, says it lacks arguments (not compliant with the docs).

Tried even with distro-sync, without success

tdnf upgrade requires a package name for tdnf-1.0.x aiming for minimal functionality. you should try "tdnf install yum" and upgrade using yum or feed the check-update results to tdnf upgrade one by one "tdnf check-update | cut -f3 -d$'\r' | xargs -n1 tdnf upgrade -y"

and does that for all the updates.

[ppadmavilasom]

@Spacial - it seems you have yum installed. could you try - "yum upgrade"? FYI, there was a previous topic on TP1 upgrade to latest and somebody else ran into issues. I am not sure if these are the same. You can certainly try but TP1 upgrade to latest is not a path that is tested or recommended.

resolved rebuilding the rpm database..

Hi @ppadmavilasom, but if upgrading the TP1 after install isnt recommended, why the packages are available at the repos? It should be another 'version' for unstable?

thanks for you attention

Jacson

[Spacial]

@ppadmavilasom Sorry, the TP1 ins't stable, right?

[ppadmavilasom]

@Spacial on a per package basis, this will work and thats what was intended for TP1. Could you please cat your /etc/yum.repos.d contents? Do you have repositories other than TP1 release repositories?

[Spacial]

@ppadmavilasom Can't, the last upgrade broke everything.

I'll try with the 1.0.0 version now.

[ppadmavilasom]

@Spacial once you have things back up, please post your repos. We should have TP1 repos static from the time of release. Only update i see to TP1 is docker.

@Spacial Had similar issues with Photon TP2. There seems to be an issue in tdnf upgrade if the tdnf has not been upgrading before.

Execute tdnf upgrade tdnf and after that you can execute tdnf upgrade -y and all packages will be updated.

@ppadmavilasom I've verified this in TP2 installation from ISO and OVA sources.
