8.3Beta2 to 8.3Beta3: The Firmware is invalid

[pakpenyo]

Hi,

Trying GUI upgrade 8.3Beta2 to 8.3Beta3, I've got console error:

Code:

Sep 26 18 18:39:03 freenas manage.py: [middleware.exceptions:38] [MiddlewareError: The firmware is invalid]

The sha256sum files is correct

Code:

pakpenyo:Downloads pakpenyo$ shasum -a 256 FreeNAS-8.3.0-BETA3-x64.GUI_Upgrade.txz 
3b909d8b7e0f28c6cfa749b9cf06aa2b0af40c056cb1712eb2a62bc965ca8ad9  FreeNAS-8.3.0-BETA3-x64.GUI_Upgrade.txz

Should I try upgrade from cd?

Thanks and sorry about my English.

I haven't done that particular upgrade, so the specifics might be different, but did you include the SHA file in the GUI when doing the upgrade?

BETA3 was not officially announced yet, I would not install until it is if I were you.

Include file? How? The option is for sha256sum number, not the file.

BETA3 was not officially announced yet, I would not install until it is if I were you.

Yep. Now i'm waiting....

Thanks.

Download the new firmware upgrade after announcement, i've get same problem. Should I create a ticket? And the Release Notes for FreeNAS 8.3.0-BETA3 is not update.

//EDIT: trying reset to factory default, and same as with the problem.

Are you sure you're not upgrading from x86 to x64? Or vice-versa.

 

[pakpenyo]

No William, absolutely not.

Code:

[root@freenas] ~# uname -a
FreeBSD freenas.local 8.3-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p4 #2 r240088M: Tue Sep  4 06:56:00 PDT 2012     root@build.ixsystems.com:/build/home/jpaetzel/8.3.0/os-base/amd64/build/home/jpaetzel/8.3.0/FreeBSD/src/sys/FREENAS.amd64  amd64
[root@freenas] ~# sysctl -a | egrep -i 'hw.machine|hw.model|hw.ncpu'
hw.machine: amd64
hw.model: AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 260 Processor
hw.ncpu: 2
hw.machine_arch: amd64

After a failed upgrade attempt, check /var/tmp/firmware/ for logs, specially something called /var/tmp/firmware/install_worker or something alike (I don't recall the exact name), maybe paste it here.

Try:

Code:

cd /var/tmp/firmware/ &&
bin/install_worker.sh pre-install &&
bin/install_worker.sh install

Sorry guys, i have no time for check all of this. This is a busy production machine.

Solved with clean install new firmware 8.3BETA3 and restore config.

Thanks for help.
