Hi,

Basically I am trying to upgrade Airwave from 8.2.9.0 to 8.2.10.0

When upgrading I upload the new file start the upgrade and the process starts as normal as shown in the screenshot below:

It sits on the above message for a very long time before seeming to break out to the login screen again.  I can no longer log in with my CLI admin username and password - when browsing to the webpage itself it says scheduled for maintence.  I have restored the checkpoint and tried again with the same result.  Not sure if I am doing something wrong or better to open a TAC?

Thanks

Seems on the logs itself it only gets as far as below, been sitting at this stage for the last 50 minutes:

make: Entering directory `/root/git/mercury'
Thu Jan 23 13:50:43 2020: Dropping 'Test' database if exists....
DROP DATABASE
Thu Jan 23 13:50:44 2020: Creating 'Test' database....
CREATE DATABASE
ALTER DATABASE

Just an update got these logs from the console window, after this it no longer accepts my admin username and password and I have to then revert to backup.  I have raised a support case interesting to see what this is as I followed the user upgrade guide.

Upgrade failed due to missing rpm package, need to manually install and recompile code to fix it.

scott we followed below steps to fix :)

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

Manually installed missing python-lib packges by running yum command $ yum install python-libs  and recompiled code.

In 8.2.10 code password requirment is more complex cotain atleast 15 words and it will get expiry every 60 days, we have reverted this changes back to default requirment in 8.2.10.1 code.

May be during upgrade you forgot to provide new complex password requirment due to this you are not able to login.

If you have snapshot try upgrade to 8.2.10.1. If server have large database it will take time to drop and create table.

I did think this however I did not get a prompt to update the password and also upon the screen to login at the top it still shows the old version 8.2.9.0 as if the upgrade as failed.

Anywhere give a method on how to do this manual install and recompile or better to just leave it with support?

Thanks

Scott

small correction,complex password requirment applies only for fresh 8.2.10 install not for upgrade, we need to have root access to install missing package and recompile the code.

As you already opened TAC ticket they willl fix it.
