Hello Proxmox,

We are using Proxmox standard installation without subscription and we would like to upgrade our Proxmox installation to latest v5.3. With standard procedure apt-get update... we still use Proxmox 5.2.

This is Proxmox installation which is in produstion mode, servers are working live so we don't want to play with this, is there some installation tips how to upgrade Proxmox to latest version live?

Thanks for the support and assistance in the advance...
 
Hello Dominik,

Do we need to use Proxmox Repository:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org stretch/updates main contrib

--- or ---

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib

# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
# NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve stretch pve-no-subscription

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org stretch/updates main contrib

Thanks for the all support in the advance..
 
To get the latest version for Proxmox packages, you will need the Proxmox repositories.

Are your repositories configured properly? What are the outputs of the following commands?:

Code:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list
cat/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
apt update
 
This is my output...

Code:
root@one:~# cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch main contrib

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-updates main contrib
#deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve stretch pve-no-subscription

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org stretch/updates main contrib

root@one:~# cat/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
-bash: cat/etc/apt/sources.list.d/*: No such file or directory

root@one:~# apt update

Proxmox repository is commented out in your sources.list, so you're not getting any updates for it. Uncomment the line with pve-no-subscription and then you should be able to update.
 
Hello,

I was commented that line of code because of this threat, I was waiting for confirmation :)

It is fine now, version is 5.3.11 and works fine.

In my previous installation, when I use this repository Proxmox report some CPU errors or something like this, if I see those errors again I'll post it here.

Thanks for the support and assistance again...
