12.1-RELEASE-p10 from 11.3-RELEASE-p11

[Dellyjoe]

Hello everyone,

I have two pools, my second pool is all plugins that you get in freenas, my first pool has one jail that is nextcloud, it wasn't installed with the plugin. I used dan35's code and it has been working great.

Now I made the move to Truenas code and updated my second pool first and everything went well.
I used the command line and did iocage fetch and the downloaded 12.1 and then ran the command
iocage upgrade -r 12.1-RELEASE {jailname}.

Now it came time to update my jails within my first pool. Using iocage upgrade -r 12.1-RELEASE nextcloud seemed to work I went through patching and now I have this message see attached picture.

My system seems to have stopped been waiting on this screen for over 1 hour.

Does anyone know what the issue is?

Thank you for reading,
Joe

It can take a while. My jail upgrade took quite a bit of time, more than I expected so I just let it sit for a while. It did finish and the jail was running afterwards, but I couldn't make pkg or ports work afterwards. I ended up rebuilding both of my jails from scratch. That was actually a lot quicker and in hindsight I should have just done that in the first place. I will probably do that in the future on any whole release upgrade from now on.

So I thought that the jail upgrade was done, so I ended up using ^c and when asked to re-start the jail it ended up breaking the jail.

I ended up just rebuilding the jail spent about 4 hours getting all my settings all back to normal and now we are good to go.

But I think I should have waited.

My fault. But thank you for the info @Kevo

If you have the ability to backup files and create a new 12.1-RELEASE iocage, it's much quicker.

There is a way to speed the upgrade though:

For the last 2 jails I deleted /usr/src in the jail and edited /etc/freebsd-update.conf (in each jail) to change line 15 from "Components src world" to "Components world" The last two jails took about 15 mins each to upgrade to 12.1 including a complete pkg upgrade.

After you've updated your jail to 12.1-RELEASE, you need to go into the jail and enter

Code:

pkg-static install -f pkg 

and

Code:

pkg upgrade -y
