    Installing 5.2.001 - Plugins restore seems to be stuck/hung

    Hi all,

    Have just flashed from 5.1.033 to 5.2.001 using the image manager. I am at the point where it asked if I wanted to do a settings restore. I said yes to both settings and plugins. It has not been on the screen saying something along the lines of "Retrieving plugins please wait..." and has been on that screen for close to 40min now.

    I can ssh into the system, but the /root/logs folder is empty. Lookin in /var/logs I see the following


    root@vuduo2:/var/log# ls -l
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 24 11:03 boot
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9807 Sep 24 11:03 dmesg
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 292 Sep 29 02:13 lastlog
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 30054 Sep 29 02:30 messages
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 36 Sep 29 01:28 postinstall.log
    drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 Sep 24 11:03 samba
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 3456 Sep 29 02:17 wtmp


    One thing I have noticed is the tz on the system is wrong, presumably in UTC. The messages file seems to mostly consist of the following

    Sep 29 02:28:01 vuduo2 cron.info crond[1046]: (readme.txt) ORPHAN (no passwd entry)
    Sep 29 02:29:01 vuduo2 cron.info crond[1046]: (readme.txt) ORPHAN (no passwd entry)

    Sep 29 02:30:09 vuduo2 daemon.notice ntpdate[3172]: adjust time server 133.243.238.244 offset -0.047514 sec

    Sep 29 02:32:01 vuduo2 cron.info crond[1046]: (readme.txt) ORPHAN (no passwd entry)
    Sep 29 02:33:01 vuduo2 cron.info crond[1046]: (readme.txt) ORPHAN (no passwd entry)


    ad the postinstall.log file only contains these 2 lines

    adding crontab
    Configuring ntpdate.

    Had a look at what processes were running and the package installer was listed, but had <defunct> after it's name. Not entirely sure what that signifies though.

    1249 ? 00:00:09 opkg <defunct>

    Really couldn't find much else apart from a file called ExtraInstalledPlugins in /var/tmp. It consists of

    root@vuduo2:/var/tmp# cat ExtraInstalledPlugins
    enigma2-plugin-skins-OverlayHD
    enigma2-plugin-extensions-youtube
    enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-IanSavOpenViXFeed
    enigma2-plugin-extensions-netspeedtest
    enigma2-plugin-extensions-epgrefresh

    enigma2-plugin-extensions-seriesplugin
    enigma2-plugin-extensions-openwebif-terminal
    enigma2-plugin-extensions-openwebif-vxg
    run-postinsts


    Lastly I decided to see what network connections were active. There does not appear be any back to any OpenVix server(s).

    Is there anyway to find out if it is actually working on thew plugins or if it's just hung in some loop or something?

    Hi Andy,

    sorry but I have since rebooted the unit. Waited a good 4+hrs (needed an excuse to go out and do some gardening!). Decided to try a reboot so ssh'd into the unit, did a shutdown -r now and the unit booted fine, with 5.2.001 and all of my plugins and settings. It looks as if it completed but failed to restart, or something along those lines.

    Vu+ Uno 5.2 image issue

    Hi,

    Experienced the same issue with Vu Uno. Used image manager to update from version 5.1.033 to 5.2. All went ok, then I try restore all settings and plugins snd tuner stuck on Vix screen and message olease wait. Flashed also by Usb and stuck on the same place after restore settings and plugins. Was waiting 30 min and nothings hapen. Flashed buck to ver 5.1.033 and used again setting and plugin restore and all working after 5min. So no update from my side to 5.2 ver untill some update are done. Possible problem with one of the extensions: cccam 2.3.1, Iptv player(e2player) or skin MagicFHD OE-A by Rob van der Does.

    It's the readme file for crond that is causing it.

    No need to wait that long. If you get stuck, init 4, init 3 after 5 minutes is a workaround

    5.2.004 and issue still exist

    Was thinking that on version 5.2.004 issue reported are solved. Unfortunately is still exist.
    Stuck on vix scrin and flashing circle (busy) after tuner reboot after selecting restore settings and plugins. Nothing more instalked than reported previously.
    Flashed by image manager and by usb- the same results. Back to 5.1.033 again and probably will not try again as noticed more problems users have with VU+ tuners.

    Tried also flashing by image manager and by usb without restoring any settings. And after setup is done tuner should re-boot. And after re-noot is stuck on the same place. So issue are not with plugins or skin but with software 5.2.....

    Maybe this part of the 5.2 release notes is significant...…


    Known Plugin/Receiver issues

    Older receivers with lower amounts of memory struggle with downloading OpenTV EPG data using Cross EPG downloader. Use a swap file in such cases.
    Some 3rd party plugins may not be currently compatible with OE-A 4.2x core, streaming plugins may require their respective author's to add dependencies for GST 1.xx.
    HbbTV not working for all receivers. Please raise issue with respective Manufacturer.

    Swap file used - so this is not a issue. Installed from usb without plugins and existing settings so no extras- version 5.2.004 and tuner stuck on after reboot. On version 5.1.033 still have 12.5mb flash free memory.
