GUI Upgrade from 8.3.1-BETA2-x64 to Beta 3 fails with invalid image

[docthomas]

I have followed the steps to do a GUI update from 8.3.1-BETA2-x64 to Beta 3 however the upgrade fails with invalid image. I checked the SHA 256 of the file on my local system and it matches that of the txt file I downloaded along with the XZ file. Any idea how I can resolve this? I would like to use the built in GUI method for upgrade rather then burning a CD to do the upgrade.

Thanks

You need the .txz if you're upgrading from anything 8.3.* From the release notes: The GUI upgrade format changed in 8.2.0-BETA3 from xz to txz. What this means is that if you are attempting to do a GUI upgrade to 8.3.0-RELEASE from 8.2.0-BETA3 or later use the .txz version of the GUI_Upgrade file. If you are upgrading from any previous version use the .xz file.

Ok that worked. I must have misread the release notes as I thought the new format was xz. Thanks for the help!
