Bugzilla – Bug 7411
Copying update screen does not detect failed updates
Last modified: 2008-05-15 12:28:52 UTC
My SBC was in the middle of a firmware update when some problem occurred. The copying update screen got as far as about 40%, but then just stuck on that percentage. The animation continued, but the progress never got any further. When I pushed a button, I was taken straight to a screen telling me that there was a problem with the update and asking if I would like to try again. This is similar to bug 7271 but is, I believe, a different issue.
Can you provide more info? How long did you wait?
I haven't tried repeating this, but thought it was worth flagging before I got. I waited several minutes - probably as long as ten or more. I came back to the device and found it in that state, but I'd been looking at the updating screen from a distance for quite a while, thinking "that's taking a long time to copy!".
Max: Were you connected to SqueezeNetwork or SqueezeCenter at the time the error happened? What version of firmware was (is) on your SBController currently?
I was connected to SqueezeCenter. Afraid I don't know what version the controller was at the time, but it is unlikely to have been more than a day or so older than the date I reported the issue. I've just reproduced this issue by starting an update on the controller then stopping slimserver when it reached 82%. The controller just sat there on the Copying Update screen with the animation continuing. However, after about a minute, I could see the dimmed out screen behind it switch to the update failed screen. The problem is that the overlay screen never cancels until you manually push a button. My controller is currently at R2090 and SqueezeCenter is at R17793 on the 7.0 branch.
This was working, but I was this problem at MV last week. I'll take a look.
Fixed in jive 7.0.1 r2118.
Verified fixed in r2409
This bug has recently been fixed in the latest release of SqueezeCenter 7.0.1 Please try that version, if you still see the error, then reopen this bug. To download this version, please navigate to: http://www.slimdevices.com/su_downloads.html
