Debian Installation :: Upgrade From Squeeze To Wheezy Or Jessie

Jul 28, 2015

is it possible to simulate upgrading a Squeeze installation to a Wheezy or Jessie installation, on a OVH server ?I would like simulate upgrading server, and if not problems, upgrading in real time.I don't do that manipulation, and I don't do mistakes on a production server.

Debian Installation :: Failed Wheezy To Jessie Upgrade (cannot Boot)

Aug 13, 2014

I upgraded from deb7 to deb8, but am no longer able to boot. After passing the grub boot menu, the following messages are displayed:

Code:
Select allLoading, please wait...
[    6.065713] systemd-fsck[148]: /dev/sda1: clean, 428644/1310720 files, 410616

[   18.066215] Loading kernel module for a network device with CAP_SYS_MODULE (deprecated). Use CAP_NET_ADMIN and alias netdev- instead
_

The screen then clears and an underscore is displayed as the sole character at the top left position of the screen. The system hangs at this point. During installation, I rejected two changed files: /etc/init.d/bootlogd and /etc/libreoffice/sofficerc. For both, I opted to keep the installed version (the default choice of the installer) rather than replacing with the new version. The first might be related to the problem, although it seems to be responsible only for logging the boot process, and I would not expect this to compromise booting.

In case this information is useful, sda1 is mounted at /, sda2 is swap space, sda3 is extended, and sda5 is a logical partition mounted at /home.

I am able to boot into rescue mode, but other than that the system is not usable. Unfortunately, no useful error messages are given to aid in diagnosing the problem.

Debian Installation :: Broken Grub After Wheezy To Jessie Upgrade

Jun 2, 2015

I've changed my /etc/apt/sources.lst file to use "jessie" repositories instead of "wheezy". I then ran synaptic and updated everything (there were loads of packages, something like 2000 to update).

After this I rebooted. The grub menu shows as usual with the background image I'd set and the operating systems as usual (including Windows 7) however there is no longer a 5 second countdown and when I select *any* menu option, it asks for a username and password.

I don't know what username and password it's asking for as I never used to have one set!!! I did have a username and password set up so that if you wanted to edit a grub menu option so I tried that but to no avail.

I'm using MBR/BIOS not EFI.

Debian Installation :: Dist-upgrade From Wheezy (using Systemd) To Jessie Hangs

Nov 19, 2014

I have done on previous releases, but this time it hangs on me. It's "only" a Virtualbox, so I can reproduce it.

The wheezy already runs systemd, and is fully updated to to latest packages. Does not run any graphical.

Edits the source.list and does
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get upgrade # Did on one upgrade
$ apt-get dist-upgrade

It starts to upgrade (complains about missing version in libpgp-error), libc is installed, but at some point the systemd is running at high CPU and a dpkg seems to be stalled.

Should I disable systemd on wheezy before? This might not have been tested so much.

Debian :: No Internet After Upgrade From Wheezy To Jessie

May 27, 2015

I upgraded my Wheezy 7.8 to make sure all packages were installed Before taking the next step to upgrade to Jessie.I upgraded to Jessie and it seemed to run OK....but after reboot I had no network Connection..I checked ifconfig and the wrong network card mac address is being assigned to the wrong card....?I have a clonezilla server on my server, so this was my network interfaces before and after upgrade

Code: Select all# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

[code]...

I even checked nano /etc/resolv.conf and sure enough my gateway was the same for my Internet eth0.When I ran ifconfig I could see that the eth0 mac address was set as eth1..I tried to reset my drbl for clonezilla but that only sees the vmware Connection and not my actural cards.. have taken alook at /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and the assignment is right but not ifconfig?

Debian :: Wheezy To Jessie Upgrade Will Not Boot

May 28, 2015

With "quiet" removed from the grub linux line, I'm getting the following error messages when the boot hangs up early in the boot process (19.768231 seconds into boot).:

input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=3 as devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.1/sound/card0/input6

input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=8 as devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.1/sound/card0/input8

So, is this a NVidia issue or a sound card issue?

Debian :: Dedi Server Don't Reboot After Wheezy / Jessie Upgrade

Jul 26, 2015

I have upgraded my debian server on april when Jessie came up, but I *forgot* to reboot at this time. As a new kernel* was released this week as a security update, and since my server installed it (via unattended-upgrade on security packages), I rebooted it last night. It never came back online.

I have access to a rescue boot (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), and tried to analyse the failure (by mounting /sys /dev /proc and /boot and chrooting), but without luck so far.

As it's a dedicated server, I don't have access to the console. What I know :

No log in var/log since the failed reboot. I don't know how to have/find others logs.Previous kernel was 3.2.0-4-amd64, new is 3.16.0-4-amd64, What I tried without luck) :

Change the booting kernel, via update-grub. Tried 3.2, 3.2 with sysvinit and 3.16 rescue mode I think. I should have done it right, but without console it's hard to tell.apt-get update/apt-get upgrade/apt-get dist-upgradeadding nomodeset to kernel load in grubWhat I haven't tried :

update-initramfs, I don't really know why it would block the boot

*linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64:amd64 3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u2

Debian :: Possible To Upgrade From Squeeze To Jessie?

Jun 25, 2015

I installed a Debian server a few time ago, with the Squeeze version.

Now I want to upgrade it to Jessie, but all related documentation only talk about the procedures to upgrade from Wheezy to Jessie.

What should I do? Upgrade first Squeeze to Wheezy and after that to Jessie, or I can upgrade from Squeeze to Jessie?

Debian Installation :: Overwrite Wheezy With Jessie

Jun 20, 2015

I already have a Notebook with windows (for some reason it needs 3 partitions..) and wheezy. When I installed wheezy I create 2 logical partition inside a primary one: one logical for /home and the other one for filesystem. Now I would like to overwrite wheezy and get get jessie, but without touching windows and home.

I already try to upgrading and it went wrong, so I prefer overwrite, what I have to do during "manual installation" phase?

Debian Hardware :: Upgrade Squeeze To Jessie Changes IRQ List

Dec 18, 2015

I'm running a Debian derivative (Voyage linux).With the latest version based on Debian 8.0 Jessie and kernel 3.14.12 I have frequent pops, clicks and stutters in sound played through a USB dac, especially with higher resolution files. A previous version of this distribution worked fine, which was based on Debian 6.0.2 "Squeeze" and kernel 2.6.38. The files played are stored on a pata (to sata) device.I suspect I have an IRQ problem, I've made the following observations:

- The following processes are producing a combined 15-20% cpu load depending on the resolution currently being played. In the Squeeze based distribution these processes are not visible, so I'm not sure what that means.
irq/15-ehci_hcd
irq/15-ohci_
irq/15-pata_amd_hcd
- ksoftirq is also slightly elevated at 1.6 when running 'Jessie' compared to 0 on the 'Squeeze'
- The si line in 'top' seems also to be quite high (between 2 and 7) compared to when running 'Squeeze' (between 0 and and occasional 0.3).
- system load is also quite high

Below I have the contents of /proc/interrupts. It seems the problem lies in irq 15 being shared between usb and pata device(s). I already tried adding a few kernel options but without results: a.o. pci=routeirq, acpi=off. The latter did change the order of irq15, moving the pata device one position up.

'Squeeze' distribution: cat /proc/interrupts
CPU0
0: 2610959 XT-PIC-XT-PIC timer
1: 0 XT-PIC-XT-PIC i8042
2: 0 XT-PIC-XT-PIC cascade
3: 1 XT-PIC-XT-PIC

Debian Installation :: Segmentation Fault When Upgrading From Wheezy To Jessie

May 11, 2015

A few days ago I bought a Raspberry PI B with Debian Wheezy (7.0 - I think) on it. Before installing a media centre on it I wanted to do some basic configuration/upgrade and decided to upgrade to Debian Jessie. I followed the instructions provided on [URL] .....

Before moving to Jessie I have upgraded the original Wheezy; after the upgrade the version was 7.8. Everything went well till I executed "apt-get dist-upgrade". Errors where generated. As suggested I tried the "apt-get -f install"; but it did not go smoothly either. However, so far, I am accessing the desktop and everything seems fine (although I did not do anything fancy yet). The version recorded is 8.0. Thus, should I worry about the error messages generated?

Please find the log file here: [URL] ......

Note that I put the log file on Google Drive because each time I clicked on "add file" in the "Upload Attachment" tab when editing this message I got:

Internal Server Error:
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, forum-admin@forums.debian.net and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

Debian Installation :: Moving From Squeeze To Wheezy?

Apr 2, 2011

I'm wondering I've read in some places that if people would like to move from a stable branch of Debian to the testing you can usually just replace the lines in sources.list with the testing release and update and then dist-upgrade. Is this true...and if so is it safe?

Debian :: Spring On Wheezy But Not Jessie

May 19, 2015

I've had a weird issue recently with Java/Spring. Basically, it would work on all machines but my trusty Debian box. Macs for devs, Ubuntu for production and some devs have it too. This annoyed me, because of course Debian is the greatest and it must work there too! Also, Java is based on the whole write once run anywhere concept, I have never really had a problem with code behaving differently on different Java installs of the same version, even on completely different OSs it seems to behave itself very well. URL....

I moved up to Jessie and the problem goes away. I can only conclude that some library that is called by Java got upgraded, somehow influences the order in which Spring resolves its dependencies. Probably the fact that other devs build on Ubuntu and have got it working there, and the upgrade to Jessie brings my libs more in line with what Ubuntu will be running has done the trick.

Debian Installation :: Upgrade To Wheezy Successful But No CLI And No GUI?

Jun 9, 2011

I upgraded one of my Squeeze installations to Wheezy, but after selecting it in grub, nothing is displayed on screen: no CLI and no GUI. I tried Ctrl + Alt + F[1-7] and I got nothing. My laptop is Acer Aspire 7715Z. I am attributing this to module as there seems to be disk activity, but without a screen, I cannot be certain.

Debian :: Upgraded From Wheezy To Jessie / Now Only GNOME Classic Works

Apr 27, 2015

I did an in-place upgrade to Jessie today and I can only get the GNOME Classic desktop, which I have to select when I log in. I had started to get used to the default desktop in Wheezy, so I'd like it back if possible. When I select gnome system default, I get my desktop, but no menus or anything I can click on at all. All I can do is ctrl-alt-delete and reboot or shutdown. I run it on a Lenovo Ideapad U410.

Debian Installation :: Multiple SystemD Errors After Upgrade From Wheezy

Mar 3, 2016

Recently I upgraded my machine from wheezy to jessie.

Everything went smooth until the point that I restarted the node.

During startup I'm getting the following message which is flooding the screen:

Code: Select allsystemd-journald[296]: Failed to forward syslog message: Connection refused

After waiting a long time (the message above still continues to flood the screen), I'm being prompted with the following:

Code: Select allGive root password for maintenance (or type Control-D to continue):

If I press Ctrl+D the boot process continues and finally boots normally.

What I can do to avoid pressing Ctrl+D during the boot process?

I'm assuming that it must be a startup service which is failing but I'm unable to trace which exactly is that.

I'm attaching the full log [URL] ....

Debian Configuration :: Udev Static Device Change From Wheezy To Jessie

Sep 9, 2015

I am using a 3rd party kernel driver that does not support udev properly. When I was using wheezy I placed the required device files in /lib/udev/devices.

The udev in jessie does not appear to support this. Is there any way to have udev create these device files or will I have to create then using a script at boot-up?

Debian Multimedia :: Upgraded To Jessie From Wheezy - Sound Plays On Everything But Browsers

Dec 25, 2014

I just installed wheezy and upgraded to jessie. I had previously gotten sound working in wheezy by installing the flashplugin-nonfree and flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound packages, after configuring my headset in system settings. However, now I can't get sound to play in firefox. I've installed flashplugin-nonfree, flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound, and pulseaudio, still without luck. The volume is turned all the way up in alsamixer, sound tests play fine, and I can play music in VLC without any problems. This leads me to believe it's not a problem with drivers, but with some package I'm missing that will allow firefox to play sound. Sound wasn't working in the default video player either, before I installed the flash plugin. Is there something I'm missing?

Also, sound doesn't play on Konqueror either (KDE browser), which seems to indicate it's a problem with flash and not with firefox itself. After removing the flash plugin and installing pepperflashplugin-nonfree to ensure the pepper plugin was used instead of flash, sound still would not play in chromium, so I reinstalled the flash plugin and still don't have sound in any browser.

Debian Hardware :: Android Phone No Longer Mounting Since Wheezy -> Jessie

Aug 7, 2015

Used to be, when I connected my phone and turned on USB Storage, it would automount, and I'd get a popup window asking me what I wanted to do (open and view files, or import photos with gthumb). I would just choose open and view files, move photos, music, etc. back and forth...

I would see the device listed in pcmanfm or thunar. Now, nothing happens. I do not get the popup, nor see the device in any file manager, etc. When I do fdisk -l, I do not see the phone listed, but when I do lsusb, I do see it.

Code: Select allBus 008 Device 067: ID 0482:0734 Kyocera Corp.
Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

It's a Kyocera Hydro Elite, an android device, set for USB Mass Storage upon connection. The phone knows when it's been connected and gives me the option to turn on the mass storage, which used to trigger the popup on the computer, but the computer no longer responds.

I have thunar-volman and mtp-tools installed.

I don't seem to have any relevant entry in /etc/fstab. Not sure if I did before upgrading to jessie from wheezy or not... I don't believe so...don't think an upgrade would wipe anything from there.

Why I'm not getting access to the phone now? Or how I can mount it without knowing it's location from fdisk? I do not use gnome, but rather plain openbox.

Debian :: Squeeze Vs Wheezy ?

Nov 29, 2010

But when Squeeze goes from 'testing' to 'stable' in December... does Wheezy get promoted from 'sid/unstable' to 'testing' at the same time?.

I started my life in Linux with and currently use Ubuntu, and it runs decent(barely). However, I just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10, and because of strange little issues and increasing bloatware, I have been forced to strongly consider the "mother OS": Debian.

The reason for my original question is that I want to run whatever the current "testing version" is. And if Wheezy gets promoted at the same time Squeeze does, then I will just wait the 4 weeks instead of slogging through another install(I prefer fresh installations vs upgrading within). I know the test versions of Debian are a bit more active than stable, but I have used Ubuntu for over 2 years, so I have some experience dealing with Terminal commands, package management, gnome, etc...I am also currently VirtualBoxing a copy of Squeeze.

Debian :: Upgrading The Squeeze To Wheezy?

Jul 12, 2011

My Squeeze version is extension three and I had it loaded on my Seagate 1 TB SATA drive. Extension three Squeeze is still on the SATA drive. I loaded Wheezy on my 80 GB Western Digital IDE setup up as a master with my Plextor IDE CD/DVD ROM setup as the slave drive.

Squeeze on my version was LXDE and Wheezy on my version is Gnome gdm3. My Squeeze was loaded with Lilo 22.8 and my Wheezy worked with the regular bootloader. I am just wondering if I use Disk Utility to delete the extension three of Squeeze if it will make both versions unusable.

Debian Hardware :: Lenovo ThinkPad SL410 - Upgraded Wheezy To Jessie And Lost USBs

May 8, 2015

I run Debian with Gnome on a beat up workhorse ThinkPad. I upgraded to Jessie last week with just one issue. Before the upgrade, I could plug in a USB drive (I use a couple of WD MyPassports most often) and they would mount, read, and write without a hitch.

Since the upgrade, when I plug in a USB drive, the file manager (3.14.1) sees the drive, but when I click on the drive to access/mount it, I receive a dialog box reading: Oops! Something went wrong. Unhandled error message: Error when getting information for file '/media/user/MyPassport1': Input/output error.

If I hit the little “eject” button in the file manager, then mount the drive as root from a command prompt [e.g., mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/external] I can run a directory of the drive, but ls -l /media/external fails. From the command prompt I am unable to perform reads or writes to the drive.

Rebooting into recovery mode (i.e., without Gnome), I get the same behavior with CLI messages reporting I/O errors with the drive. I can run a directory, but ls -l, reads, and writes fail.

This behavior is the same on all three USB ports. It is not limited to these MyPassport devices.

The drives work flawlessly on another headless machine upgraded to Jessie the same day. And on another still running Wheezy.

If I boot the ThinkPad from a live CD (Mint 14, I believe) the USB drives mount, read, and write fine.

My BIOS is up to date, 1.52.

lspci -v says this about USB ports:

Code: Select all00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [UHCI])

Debian Installation :: After Jessie Upgrade No WiFi / IP Address

Feb 7, 2016

I upgraded my laptop from Debian Wheezy to Jessie the other day, and just as before my wifi auto-connects to my router, and I can "ping http://www.google.com" just fine, but only for like a minute. Then the Internet access dies, but I'm still connected fine to my router, and I can ping its IP address. If I connect to the router through cable / eth0 everything works just fine, and I have full Internet access.

I assume there is something wonky with how ip address is assigned after the upgrade, how can I fix this, or trouble shoot further?

(I run Gnome desktop, with network manager).

Debian Installation :: System Hanging On Upgrade To Jessie

Apr 5, 2016

I have an asus eee 1015px, which was running dualboot windows and wheezy with no problems (except the browsers seeming to take up a lot of CPU). Today having backed up everything, I wanted to upgrade to jessie. URL...

Everything seemed to be progressing fine, no strange messages, it took 1 hour for

Code: Select allapt-get upgrade

but maybe that's normal. However, then when I did

Code: Select allapt-get dist-upgrade

It froze at 17.30 with a weird screen. The sort of thing you never want to see on an install, a sad face and blocks instead of text.
pic: URL...

Then it moved on and gave a readout, which seemed pretty ominous
pic: URl...

It then moved and gave a readout, hanging again:
pic3: URl...

Now it seems to be in loop, moving on every 15 minutes or so but always ending up with the same screenful of text shown in the foto below, which ends with the last line reading like this:

Code: Select all[17798.587776] ieee80211 phy0: brcms_ops_bss_info_changed: arp filtering: enabled true, count 1 (implement)
or later
Code: Select all[20209.229273] ieee80211 phy0: brcms_ops_bss_info_changed: arp filtering: enabled true, count 1 (implement)

This pic shows the full screen: URL....

This is baffling for me I'm not very experienced with debian.
