Manual Release upgrade via putty

[kondisz]

Hello,

Is there any chance to upgrade the server from the putty via ssh? Today I was fighting with php in jails where I tried a lot of things and in the end I thought about "ok, I will configure it from the beginning" and after removing jails something goes totally wrong

After every start boot machine starts shutting down after 1-3 minutes of the normal boot. Unfortunately, I don't have physical access to the machine until the end of the week, but I killed some python task what gave me a working machine but without Web GUI.

What do you suggest? How to repair it without physical access or how to run the manual update again, maybe I broke something in boot files?

Already done - today upgraded to 12.0-RELEASE.
In addition today I removed olders version of boot - unlucky

I found such command:
midclt call update.manual "<direct_path>"

But unfortunately after stopping python I got below message from the SSH:

Code:

Trying command with stopped python:
root@freenas[~]# midclt call update.manual "TrueNAS-12.0-U1-manual-update.tar" Failed to run middleware call. Daemon not running?

Trying command before killing python:
root@freenas[~]# midclt call update.manual "TrueNAS-12.0-U1-manual-update.tar" 38

maybe attempt to restart the middleware first:
service middlewared restart
