[VU+ Duo] restoring from a tar.gz file via telnet / SSH

[acseuser]

I added some plugins and other stuff, but after that (I think) the box is continuously rebooting.

AS a short-term fix, I'd like to restore to a previously-saved .tar.gz backup. But since the box is rebooting so often/quickly after boot up, I can't do it via the GUI!

I've got a telnet (and SSH) login; how can I restore the backup? Is that just settings? Do I need to rollback the FW version as well, even though it was working perfectly (I know, if it ain't broke, don't mess with it) before.

Thanks,

SR.

Sounds like it's stuck in an E2 bootloop.
Have a look in /home/root/logs/ for crashlogs being generated & upload one here.

OK, so in the absense of a solution to the problem, how do I recover the box - without use of the GUI - hopefully using the backup created by image manager??

 

[timofee]

I am sorry that no one was able to help you even after you went to the trouble of uploading a crash log.

The latest Apollo 025 image will require a complete re-install from scratch, which you will want do either now or some time in the future. I suggest you do a fresh USB install of Apollo 025 from scratch and then set everything up again from the beginning.

Try to FTP into the receiver and delete the file in /var/lib/opkg/ then reboot the receiver.

but as said above, build 025 will require a full reflash WITHOUT restore any way.

 

[acseuser]

Good thanks; sorry for late reply,

So, I re-flashed to 026 before reading this thread; then did a restore of settings; there doesn't seem to be any implications... yet. ALL very easy - credit to your work. I did wonder whether it was possible to do this from CLI without requiring a USB stick, but it's easy without.

Mebbe I'll re-flash again, and do a fresh setup, re-downloading the plugins etc... tonight, if it's necessary

I would recomend you do maybe not be a problem at the moment but sure to give you trouble at sometime

When you use a settings backup in ViX it connects to the feeds and downloads the plugins you had previously installed (which is why it won't work if you don't have a internet connection).

Because of the difference in OE cores between Apollo 024/025 using a settings backup will download plugins built for the wrong OE core and in the case of some machines for the wrong Linux kernel. This can cause numerous as yet unknown issues for your hardware and image, which is why we recommended a fresh flash without using a backup.

Now the decision is ultimately yours but we issue our advice for a reason and not lightly.

OH, I understand the reasons behind your requirement; indeed on a rainy afternoon last week, I did a re-flash and re-config. as 026.

Can't say I saw anything work that wasn't before, or anything not work that was

I have taken an image backup, as a precaution.

Thanks for your help,
