25.1.2 update crashed my VM

[homesab2]

Ran the update, but it seem to get stuck after the message warning not to turn off, there were two other lines after this, but it wasn't progressing. I refreshed the browser and got this

"Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: flock(): Argument #1 ($stream) must be of type resource, false given in /usr/local/opnsense/mvc/app/models/OPNsense/Base/Menu/MenuSystem.php:147 Stack trace: #0 /usr/local/opnsense/mvc/app/models/OPNsense/Base/Menu/MenuSystem.php(147): flock(false, 6) #1 /usr/local/opnsense/mvc/app/models/OPNsense/Base/Menu/MenuSystem.php(187): OPNsense\Base\Menu\MenuSystem->persist() #2 /usr/local/www/head.inc(4): OPNsense\Base\Menu\MenuSystem->__construct() #3 /usr/local/www/crash_reporter.php(85): include('/usr/local/www/...') #4 {main} thrown in /usr/local/opnsense/mvc/app/models/OPNsense/Base/Menu/MenuSystem.php on line 147 "

I tried to reboot and shutdown the VM but nothing happened so had to stop the VM and then tried to restart and got this

"ERROR: cannto open /boot/lua/loader.lua no such file or directory"

The VM is on Proxmox, so I restored from this morning's backup.

Crystal ball says you have Crowdsec running and you should try the update again after stopping it.


Let me know if the ball worked for you. If not I'll be returning it for a Zoltar palm-reading machine where I can feed this thread's data in hopes of a better answer for you #Garbage In - Garbage Out

[homesab2]

No I'm afriad it was garbbage out, I do have crowdsec but stopping the service didn't help. It's getting stuck installing the base.

Just give it time, it should finish installing base without issues - assuming you're not running into a low space situation.

It was disk space.

I allocated 12gb for this VM but didn't realize that the setup gives 8gb to the swap. The 4gb filesystem had 1gb free, which wasn't enough for 25.1.2, it was enough for 25.1.1. So I increased the partition size and it ran successfully.
