SickRage - Unknown current version number

[Moppen]

Hi *.*,

since a couple of weeks the webgui of Sickrage is showing:

Code:

Unknown current version number: If you've never used the SickRage upgrade system before then current version is not set. — Update Now

I had this a couple of times in the past and when I hit "Update Now", the problem was gone, but now the Update fails.

The Sickrage New-Pages points to here saying:

Update problems? Try this first:

Stop SickRage, SSH(Linux)/CMD(Windows) and enter SickRage folder

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/SickRage/SickRage.git
git fetch origin
git checkout master
git branch -u origin/master
git reset --hard origin/master
git pull

Does this apply to a Freenas-Plugin-Installation as well? Do I need to do that?

Thanks for the help,

Stefan

Typically if you want to go the manual git route, you'd install into a jail and always update manually. Though, building from git src isn't really the FreeBSD way, that is why there are ports and pkgs (see the FreeNAS Guide Jails chapter on how to use those).

If you're using plugins, you can see if the next available version is available at freshports.org. If so, you can then create a bug report asking that the plugin be updated so that it can appear when you click the Update button.

No it does not apply and you shouldn't need to do so. Iirc, git isn't even installed in the plugin jails.
As you've experienced before, the build-in update mechanism should solve this. What is the error msg you are getting from the update?

The message is plain

Code:

Update Failed
Update wasn't successful, not restarting. Check your log for more information.

And i can't find anything else then this in the logs:

Code:

2017-09-26 23:41:50 CHECKVERSION :: Unable to contact github, can't check for update: SSLError('The read operation timed out',)

Maybe this is it, but what to do?

After updating Freenas to 9.10.2-u6 (I was still on 9.10.1-usomething because I wanted to keep VirtualBox) the message mentioned above is gone. Maybe the update brought a needed component with it.
