Title: Reconfigure Stuck
Post by: simone686 on November 23, 2023, 11:28:18 AM

Hello everyone...
I'll make a premise...I'm an idiot...
When reconfiguring the network from the console of an Sme 10 I got stuck and found myself unable to go forward or backward.
Opening the console doesn't allow me to relaunch the configuration.
I (stupidly I'm afraid), tried to launch a post-upgrade signal-event and it took a long time and then lost the connection (I was connected with putty). Now everything still works but I'm afraid that restarting will ruin the whole installation.
What do you recommend me to do to avoid losing all the configurations?
Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience....

are you able to ssh in again?
what access do you have?
are you remote to the server or on premise?
 
what change did you do and what was needed?

SSh is Ok. I didn't restart the server yet.
I have root access over internet and i can even go local (3 km).

I changed default gateway.

Server Only.

there are multiple ways.
1- you should be good with

Code: [Select]

config get GatewayIP
config set GatewayIP newip
then the post-upgrade and reboot

2- you might be able to get console access by

Code: [Select]

config seprop bootstrap-console ForceSave no
config setprop bootstrap-console Run no


then proceed to configure option in console and post-upgrade then reboot

of course take care of doing it at a non critical time and moment you can have easy physical access in case it is not working as expected.  as any network change.

It can take a while, but check /var/log/messages and see where it has got to.

depends on what is installed. 
nextcloud contribs can make the event very long
