[SOLVED] UPgrading from 1349 possible ?

From earlier postings I thought that it is only impossible to upgrade from a version earlier than 1310.

I have 1349 installed and wanted to upgrade to the newest build.

But this does not work. Selecting the .img-file , the file uploads but then I get ...

Fatal error: Call to undefined function verify_xz_file() in /usr/local/www/system_firmware.php on line 269

What is the problem ?

at the moment I have x64-EMbedded, Nayla 1349

Selectiong the .gz file also does not work

You're using the wrong file. You want the .img.xz file, which you can get here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/nas4fre ... z/download

The firmware upgrade page (in the WebGUI) links directly to this file, for future reference, so you can simply download the latest version right there.

Same error message with the .img.gz file
Fatal error: Call to undefined function verify_xz_file() in /usr/local/www/system_firmware.php on line 269

Please read above. .img.xz, not .img.gz.

It's failing at an attempt to verify the xz file. If you're sure you're using the right file, you should try downloading the file again (use the link on the firmware upgrade page).

If that fails, I would suggest backing up your current config (which you should have done already) and then trying a fresh install (of 1391) to a different media device and then restoring your config from the backup file. I say to a different media device (USB stick, CF card, whatever) because that will allow you to keep your current boot media in case something goes wrong.

Hello,

if you are using Extended GUI extension before performing a firmware upgrade via the WebGUI please disable the extension temporarely than the upgrade should work.

Sorry for this inconvinience, a fix for this will be available soon!
