ReadyNAS Update Process Logs
Hi all,
I saw the following in my logs upon reloading my device today... I upgraded to 6.8.1 successfully but curious as to what the below means.
Oct 12 19:11:45 DESPAIR systemd[1]: Starting ReadyNAS Update... Oct 12 19:11:48 DESPAIR rn-update.sh[7333]: E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. Oct 12 19:11:48 DESPAIR systemd[1]: rn-update.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=100/n/a Oct 12 19:11:48 DESPAIR systemd[1]: Failed to start ReadyNAS Update. Oct 12 19:11:48 DESPAIR systemd[1]: rn-update.service: Unit entered failed state. Oct 12 19:11:48 DESPAIR systemd[1]: rn-update.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Thanks...
There is a check done after every reboot (could take about 15 minutes after the reboot before hot-fix installation is complete) and weekly after that for available hot-fixes.
For some reason your system is having trouble with this check. If it still doesn't work for you on 6.9.0 it would be worth investigating this further.

Hello steveoelliott
can you check if your network setting in NAS is correct?please make sure DNS and gateway is configured correctly then check the log again to confirm if it can fix update issue.

Hi,
Thanks for your response....
Just to clarify, there are no issues per se with the device other than I noticed those messages within the logs. Also I can confirm that DNS resolution works and the GW / DNS settings are correct.
Thanks...

Does your packages.log show that some packages are not installed properly? It sounds like the update service is not working because of that.
