Issue with new beta 6.2.3-T1652
I tried upgrading one of my devices today from 6.2.2 to 6.2.3 beta. This is a Pro 2 which I have been running on OS 6 since early 2014. The upgrade seemed to go fine and the system rebooted and I was able to reconnect, but soon after connecting to Frontview I started getting these messages:
Connecting to ReadyNAS Admin Page...
it would sit at that screen as the progress bar would go completely across without going back to the Frontview. I was still able to connect via ssh and rebooted the device. I found that Frontview would work for the first 30 seconds to maybe 2 minutes before I would get the connecting message again.
I was able to get frontview to work long enough after a reboot to downgrade back to 6.2.2 and everything seems to be working fine again. Just wanted to give a heads up in case someone else is seeing something similar or was thinking about trying this beta.

Thanks,
Jeff - Can you send in the full logs zip file?
- Full logs have been sent.
Jeff - Hi cerjzc think the issue you encountered is already addressed internally. So you may wish to try Beta 3 once that is made available.
- Ok sounds good. I will just keep an eye out for the next release and see about giving it a try.
Thanks for taking a look. Just wanting to check to make sure I assume there would be a way to install the firmware via ssh if frontview is not available?
Jeff - Yes
# cd /root
# wget http://www.readynas.com/download/beta/readynasos/6.2.3/ReadyNASOS-6.2.3-T1652-x86_64.img
# echo /root/ReadyNASOS-6.2.3-T1652-x86_64.img > /etc/.flash_update - Perfect thanks again.
Jeff - I could be wrong about it being fixed, but it looks like it should be easy to reproduce and our engineers can use more verbose logging to help them to pinpoint the cause of the issue.
I think the entry I saw around the crash may not be related to the problem. - mdgm,
I see that Beta3 has been released. In reviewing the release notes I'm not sure if the issue I was seeing was resolved or not. Do you think it is worth trying it or should I hold on and stick with 6.2.2 for now.
Thanks,
Jeff - Try 6.2.3 beta 3. Our engineers saw the issue too internally. It should be fixed in Beta 3.
