Upgrade to 14 from 13 Fails with no error

1

Greetings!

I’m trying to upgrade FreePBX 13 to 18 with the distro-upgrade script. When I do, it returns :

######### An error occured, please check /var/log/sngupdate #########
Error! setup_upgrade did not exit cleanly. Not enabling upgrade service

I will tack the sngupdate log to the end (cannot upload for some reason), but when checking it I found no error on the first go just ‘Complete!’ On the following attempts I receive ‘Nothing to do’, as expected since all of the appropriate packages are installed.

I haven’t attempted to reboot yet, as I don’t know if it is safe to do so. Thanks!

Hi!

Looks like it failed very early on, like before it could do much…

Did you look in this file and if it is not too long, post it here. You could also post it to pastebin.com or pastebin.ca…

Good luck and have a nice day!

Nick

Thanks for the reply!

I actually did post it here. It’s the last thing quoted. That’s the entire thing believe it or not!

Further info:

I commented out (what appears to be line #65) of the setup_upgrade script. It reads

rpm --erase --nodeps ffmpeg-libpostproc libtiff > /dev/null 2>&1

That package, ffmpeg-libpostproc didn’t exist

I also commented out the two previous run_cmd yum… because those were already installed and I didn’t want that fudging it up.

It continued without a problem (so far. It’s 'running upgrade-tool right now). Spitballing, but maybe there isn’t enough appropriate error handling if the package wasn’t installed and it was hanging on that?

Update: Yup. That appears to have finished the distro-upgrade script. Thanks for the moral support :slight_smile:

Further update: For those finding this with a search, I ensured those two packages were removed (ffmpeg-libpostproc and libtiff) by hand as they were noted to be disruptive to the upgrade process via a comment just above that line. So I’d probably do that too.
