Did ncp-dist-upgrade break your (Raspberry Pi) installation? Here's how to get it back

[theCalcaholic]

First of all: This issue should be fixed by now, but I could not yet verify it on an actual Raspberry Pi. So, if this happened to you, please let me know when you performed the update, so I can check if there is still something that needs to be fixed.

1. Fix your package sources

• Edit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/raspi.list and replace all occurrences of bullseye with bookworm. Also make sure, no line starts with an # (indicates that it is ignored). The result should look something like this:

deb http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ bookworm main

• Do the same for /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list

2. Upgrade packages

Run the following commands:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y --without-new-pkgs
sudo apt-get full-upgrade -y
sudo apt-get --purge  autoremove -y

3. Install missing PHP packages

Run the following command

sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends php8.1 php8.1-curl php8.1-gd php8.1-fpm php8.1-cli php8.1-opcache php8.1-mbstring php8.1-xml php8.1-zip php8.1-fileinfo php8.1-ldap php8.1-intl php8.1-bz2 php8.1-redis php8.1-exif php8.1-bcmath php8.1-gmp php8.1-mysql

4. Reload apache

sudo a2enconf php8.1-fpm
sudo systemctl reload apache2

4. Complete the dist-upgrade

Run the following commands:

sudo ncc maintenance:mode --off
sudo sed -i -e 's/bullseye/bookworm/' /usr/local/etc/ncp.cfg
sudo rm -f /etc/update-motd.d/30-ncp-dist-upgrade 
sudo rm -f /usr/local/etc/ncp-recommended.cfg

Now, Nextcloud should be back up again (if not, try rebooting and check again).

Thanks for the guide. I successfully completed step 1. When i try running sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y --without-new-pkgs from step two I get the following error message:

E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?

Any suggestions? Thanks a lot!

Problem solved... I had to go into sudo -s mode and it worked... Nextcloud is back... However, I still get the following info, when I login to the raspberry pi:
Update to bookworm available. Type 'sudo ncp-dist-upgrade' to upgrade

Would running this command again break it again? Can I safely run the ncp updates?

Thanks for the great work!

[theCalcaholic]

@nposnie Thank you for the feedback, I fixed the commands without sudo.

Can you give me the output of the following command? That should help me understand why you're still seeing the message on login:

ls -l /etc/update-motd.d/

You don't need to worry about it, though. The message won't break anything

[nposnie]

Hi @theCalcaholic,

thanks for getting back on this! This is the output you asked for:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 48 Oct 4 2022 10logo
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 45 Oct 4 2022 20updates
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 167 May 3 09:33 30ncp-dist-upgrade

Thanks!

[nposnie]

Sorry for the confusion... The message per se is not worrying. I was wondering wether I could/should run the sudo ncp-dist-upgrade again without breaking it again?

[theCalcaholic]

@nposnie If you ran sudo ncp-dist-upgrade it would just tell you that you are not on a debian version that can be upgraded (you basically completed the upgrade manually).

Can you try if the following commands remove the login message?

sudo rm -f /etc/update-motd.d/30-ncp-dist-upgrade
sudo rm -f /usr/local/etc/ncp-recommended.cfg

if yes, I'll adjust the guide above

remove the message for me.

[nposnie]

sudo rm -f /usr/local/etc/ncp-recommended.cfg

Excellent! Message is gone! Thanks a lot for your quick help!

[Schniefel]

@theCalcaholic is it now safe to use dist-upgrade of nextcloudpi on raspberry pi os (bullseye)? Or will you integrate additional fixes for 1.54.x?

[sjibbert]

I am running a Pi4 with ncp installed to an SSD. I just updated from v1.53.0 to v1.54.0 and it seems i ran into the same issues as https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi/issues/1921. Like @sebeweiss, I ran sudo apt-get install zstd in an effort to fix the "4-dphys-swapfile_20100506-7.1+rpt3_all.deb" error message. Subsequently, like him, I ran all the commands in the above step-by-step guide, sans step 3. After rebooting the raspberry and navigating to the NC portal, I still am looking at the message

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator if this error reappears multiple times, please include the technical details below in your report.
More details can be found in the server log.

ncp system-info shows mainly positive messages, although these two don't look too good:

‣ You are using an outdated distro release. You should upgrade to latest Debian/Raspbian
HPB service | down

some more info from said page, since it complains about the distro to be outdated:
NextcloudPi version | v1.54.0
NextcloudPi image | NextCloudPi_RaspberryPi_v1.51.2.img
OS | Debian GNU/Linux 11. 6.1.21-v8+ (aarch64)

As you can see below, the very first command from step two in your howto still results in an issue regarding the swap file for some reason:

[theCalcaholic]

@sjibbert That should already be fixed. Can you run ncp-update again (should show a succesful update to v1.54.2)?

@Schniefel Yes, every known issue should be fixed. Just make sure you're on v1.54.2

[sjibbert]

I just did, unfortunately, this results in errors, causing the update (to 1.54.1, not 1.54.2!) to be cancelled:

@sjibbert Oh, thank you, that makes sense. Can you try running ncp-update again? I just pushed a small fix.

I just ran ncp-update again and I seem to have succesfully updated. I won't copy all output, but the operation ended with the following:

I suppose I should do the dist-upgrade?

[theCalcaholic]

@sjibbert Since you ran ncp-dist-upgrade already, you will most likely need to follow the manual instructions above instead of rerunning the script (no harm in trying though).

[sjibbert]

package sources under step 1 already/still contained bookworm instead of bullseye. no adjustment neccecary

[theCalcaholic]

What's your dpkg --version?

[sjibbert]

Debian 'dpkg' package management program version 1.20.13 (arm64).

[theCalcaholic]

I see. zstd support was added to dpkg in version 1.21.18.
However, this should be the latest version in the bookworm repositories. I'm wondering, why it doesn't get updated...
Have you checked all files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* and /etc/apt/sources.list if they are configured for bookworm instead of bullseye?

[theCalcaholic]

I think I see the issue:

There are still bullseye package sources configured in your system.

Can you please check and let me know which file is responsible for that (I suspect /etc/apt/sources.list)?

[sjibbert]

That's correct, step one only mentioned "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/raspi.list" and "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list", so I only manually altered those two.
I just changed "/etc/apt/sources.list" in the same manner to:

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main contrib non-free
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates main contrib non-free

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y --without-new-pkgs resulted in a whole lot of packages being updated. somewhere during the process, I spotted this:

dist-upgrade didn't work for me, so i am now completely reinstalling after a few tries.
Is it still possible to install via the curl-script on a freshly flashed raspberry pi os (bookworm) or is this not supported and i need a full debian or to directly flash the ncp-image? didn't directly find something in the documentation. I wonder because the image is now based on armbian.

[theCalcaholic]

@Schniefel Some issues have been reported with the curl installer on Raspberry Pi OS specifically that will probably take me another week to fix.

So you could either wait for that or use the Armbian image (or run NCP via LXD/LXC inside Raspberry Pi OS)

[Schniefel]

@theCalcaholic look at: #1926

I tried it out and got it working but had to manually install systemd-resolved before running the script

[Halloran]

Your step 1 says:
"replace all occurrences of bullseye with bookworm"
But is also says:
"The result should look something like this:
deb http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ bullseye main"

Seems to be a significant typo right at the top here...

[theCalcaholic]

@Halloran Thank you, yeah that's a typo :)

[janvlug]

I ran today into this issue: #1930
Using NextcloudPi version: v1.54.2.

[pokaalinkanssayohon]

I just ran sudo ncp-dist-upgrade and after ca. 1h still output is full of dots only... I have RPi 4 8Gb model.

So if everything is not ok, hopefully script has timeout (?).

[pokaalinkanssayohon]

Nope, I see, that nothing happens, script is hanging and when I try to follow these instructions:
`` sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y --without-new-pkgs
` Errors were encountered while processing:
/tmp/apt-dpkg-install-tMOEmX/00-dphys-swapfile_20100506-7.1+rpt3_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
`

sudo cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/raspi.list 
deb http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ bookworm main
# Uncomment line below then 'apt-get update' to enable 'apt-get source'
#deb-src http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ bullseye main

sudo cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list 
deb https://packages.sury.org/php/ bookworm main

@theCalcaholic Would you have some ideas, how I could try to fix my NCP?

[tomcat-xx]

I also ran into this issue with v1.54.2 (on Buster, not sure if this is the same for all).

Before I got that far, I first had to solve issue with gcc-8-base, described in #1460. Seems still exist.

While following instruction above, struggled with following:

1. I edited /etc/apt/sources.list.d/raspi.list, but there is no /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list. So I ignored this step.
2. Maybe because above, when trying to install PHP, I got message that "php8.1" is interpreted as regex and php8.1-common is used, but ended with errors also. When changing all 8.1 to 8.2 there is no message, installation working, but then message from NCP that 8.2 is not supported.

Any idea? Thanks.

Starting from 1.52.2 I too ran into the following:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libc-dev-bin : Depends: libc6 (< 2.32) but 2.36-9+deb12u7 is to be installed
 libc6-dev : Depends: libc6 (= 2.31-13+deb11u10) but 2.36-9+deb12u7 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

Your steps fixed it luckily, thanks.

[tomcat-xx]

Thanks to wiborgit I finally made it:
https://help.nextcloud.com/t/nextcloudpi-updates-von-php7-3-auf-7-4-incl-auf-bullseye/135086/22
-> step 8, give up, new installation ;-)

[dwprod38]

Same problem with issue #1927 fresh RPi5 install from SD flashed with "https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi/releases/download/v1.54.0/NextcloudPi_RaspberryPi5_v1.54.0.zip"

After activation page and SSH : reboot of RPi5 (takes 10min to get prompt login of Armbian !!! Instead of 2-3mins for official raspbian linux)

And launching "sudo ncp-update", process run until "Processing Triggers for man-db (2.11,2-2)" and nothing happening during 24h... see picture below.

[JayGatsby7]

my system broke today doing this update. going to reinstall but figured I would let you know what the error looked like.Errors were encountered while processing: /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-7aMcve/01-raspi-utils-core_20240402-4_arm64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

[JayGatsby7]

looks like the images are all still based on bullseye. Is the only way to update to bookworm via ncp-dist-upgrade?

correction -- the new images are on bookworm. thanks again - love this project been using it for years.

[theCalcaholic]

I'll close this issue now, since all bugs have been fixed since and there shouldn't be any new occurrences of the original bug.
