Update to 1.20
hello, I have homarr installed in proxmox. I upgraded to version 1.20 using the "update" command through the proxmox container console. the dashboard stopped opening (nginx error 501) and the log shows the following information:
root@homarr:~# systemctl status homarr

Can I install Homarr on a Raspberry Pi?
Please run journalctl instead. We need more information & logs
They are actively fixing this btw last I checked on GitHub.
I believe it is both a homarr issue and helper scripts issue

ok thank you @CrazyWolf13 I will update mine now
@CrazyWolf13 I am not getting any updates when running the update command
type:
rm /opt/homarr_version.txtyeah thanks, it's running the update now
mine updated as expected. Thank you
Yeah mine just finished updating and it is working normally again. Thanks @CrazyWolf13
Hmm, did not work for me, getting stuck on this.
Oh man you’re a life saver thank you so much already started backing up all my lxc and vms also about to buy a extra pc for backing up proxmox automatically and gonna use duplicati as another backup to my nas
that's wonderful 🙂
ohhh that's not so good, seems like you used webui and lost connection?
I suggest locating the .env file with
ls -al it's either in /opt/homarr or /opt/homarr-backup-data, make sure to backup that file to another location.
then
After I tried that it gave me this
No big deal if I need to reinstall since I had not configured that much, but keeping it for now as long as you want it for debugging 🙂
Kinda want to be sure it does not happen to my other instance I have for work before updating that though
that's very weird, it shows excited (killed), I cannot see any other problem, did you exit it anyhow?
No I did not exit by myself or anything, and I tried it on my other build now and it hangs on the exact same thing
Can you try increasing memory?
https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/issues/3778#issuecomment-2890523477
could it be that the LXC is not powerful enough?
You read my thoughts haha
will try
137 indicates OOM, "out of memory"the lxc was on 4GB and 512MB swap, increased to 6GB and 1GB Swap. lets see if that works
That seemed to work indeed, could be good to know if anyone else stumbles upon the same issue. Maybe adjust the LXC defaults? @CrazyWolf13
yeah just noticed, PR is already made
Thank you for the help 🙂
