[OpenIndiana-discuss] Cannot upgrade from 148 to 151a8

[John McEntee]

Ken,

Thank you for the reply, I have already tried the pfexec pkg rebuild-index; pfexec pkg refresh --full ; pfexec pkg image-update -nv This is what gives the errors I am getting.

And fresh install is not a realistic option at the moment, due to their being no easy way to rollback to 148 if it gives more problems than it fixes (or doesn't fix.)

John

John,
 
Best to schedule maintenance and backup the server data/apps. Install oi_151a8. You can update from that point.
 
If that is not preferred, you can follow these notes from the wiki:
http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Upgrading+OpenIndiana
 
Notes:
1. pfexec pkg rebuild-index
2. pfexec pkg refresh --full
3. pfexec pkg image-update

Trying to upgrade from verison 148 to the latest I get the following error.

WARNING: pkg(5) appears to be out of date, and should be updated before running image-update.  Please update pkg(5) using 'pfexec pkg install pkg:/package/pkg' and then retry the image-update.

But if I update pkg from
pkg list package/pkg

(Yes it reports the same version)

I get the error.

# pkg image-update -fnv
Creating Plan -
pkg: The requested operation cannot be completed due to invalid package metadata.  Details follow:

invalid action in package pkg://openindiana.org/runtime/python-26@2.6.4,5.11-0.151.1.8:20130721T131442Z: depend fmri=library/python-2/tkinter-26 predicate=runtime/tk-8 type=conditional: Unknown type (conditional) in depend action


Is it possible to upgrade to an interim version, e.g. 151a7 or any other workarounds that would be simply to perform on a fairly vitial production server?

Thanks

John
