Image 3 Updating

[frankblueking]

I have seen some references to updating difficulties on the Ulimo Image 3.0 but could not find a post specifically addressing the following.

I have noticed that after flashing to a new image version "Box" and Telnet software updating works okay. After a short period the "Box" software update gives a message asking me to try later as an update check is in progress, it never clears and I am unable to update. Using Telnet I get a download error message.

Are the files on the box becoming corrupted? Do other people see the same problem? I can resolve the problem by re-flashing but feel there must be an underlying issue causing the problem.

I have the exact same issues but not had a reply to my last post over 7 days ago!

This is normal, happened to me this morning. Tried again after a couple of minutes and all was fine. You'll get this message if background checks are happening.

Thanks Sicilian
I have waited for ages but the message does not disappear. Why does Telnet stop working as well?

What is the telnet message? What are your network settings? Is the connection LAN or WiFi? Can you try turning everything else off that is using the network so you can be sure this is not due to a conflict.

The only time that this facility works is just after you have re-flashed its got nothing to do with network traffic connected at 100mbs. Something in the box gets corrupted you can wait foe ever it will not work!

I'm not talking about bandwidth. How is the network configured? Can you and the OP answer the questions above.

@ Satnav, what build version are you actually on?
Enable logs and post the log next time this happens.

We never asked for error logs. Sic was more meaning debug logs... If you enable these, then when it goes down, you can post the output of the debug logs...

373 is a very old build now. Best thing to do its flash fresh and setup fresh, do not restore ANY backups. Then turn on logs and post the log if it ever happens again.

I am also hard wired to my LAN, however I am on build 393. The rest of my info is in my signature. I cannot recall this problem not being present over the past 6 months!! I cannot send a log file as no crash has happened. When using Telnet it simply says download failed.

As advised above, we're not asking for error logs, but the system log. Also I'd say to you to flash fresh and DO NOT restore ANY backups then enable logs and post the log if it happens again. If this was a ViX issue with the Ultimo this forum would have more than these two reports for this issue.

Also try using a different lan cable as there was a post here some weeks back where a user could never update online but could do every thing else such as download plugins. his issue was sorted by replacing the lan cable to the receiver. all i can really say is that i have never had this issue with my ultimo nor any other box on any build or version of the image.
