Issue after upgrade Proxmox 4.3 -> 4.4

[yellow-cake]

Hello,

Since I did update a node of my PROXMOX cluster, I have some issues. Indeed after :

apt-get update

apt-get upgrade

I reboot my server but he don't reboot correctly. In fact when I look my cluster, this node is unavailable.

do you have an idea ?

Hi,

you have to use
apt-get dist-upgrade

 

[dcsapak]

please always upgrade with

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

did you get any error messages on upgrade?
does the node boot?
can you login via ssh?

Sorry i used apt-get dist-upgrade, this is an error of write in my first post. I followed the documentation http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Downloads#Update_a_running_Proxmox_Virtual_Environment_4.x_to_latest_4.2 .

I don't remember some errors after theses 2 commands.

I can login via ssh.

I can boot only if I use config-4.4.35-1-pve (by default this is config-4.4.35-2-pve). I modify this during the grub (With the E key)

edit : if i don't change "config-4.4.35-2-pve" i stay blocked on ramdisk test ..

boot into 4.4.35-1 and run
"apt-get install -f"
"dpkg --configure -a"
"update-initramfs -u -k 4.4.35-2-pve"

Thank for your return.

I tried your suggest: (i tried to update initramfs despite that the previous 2 commands have not worked)

This is a common issue in this update?

Thank you.


Edit : When I try to use some commands like pveversion -v or pvecm status, i had this :

that sounds like a corrupted file - the mentioned line should contain $str , not %str (note that '$' and '%' are just one bit different!). you can try reinstalling the offending package, but there might be a lot more broken than just that single file.. (note that this has nothing to do with PVE whatsoever - it's a file provided by Debian which has not been updated since 2014..)

Ok, I see.

I think i'll remove this node and reinstall it from scratch in order to re-add it in my cluster.

Thank's for your help !
