Trying to recover a completely broken system after 7.0 Upgrade
« on: February 16, 2022, 11:19:58 pm »
I tried to do an upgrade on a Ubuntu 18.04LTS system that has been working fine for years.  I attempted this upgrade via Zentyal Admin portal.  It seems that it crashed somewhere overnight while this upgrade was taking place. I have the system back up and sort of working but I have run into the following issues. 
  • the package freeradius-ldap will not configure
  • When I access the "Users and Computers" > "Manage" Menu I get the following Error, "FATAL: Could not connect to samba LDAP server: connect: Permission denied"
  • Backups fail also due to samba issues, but I assume that is caused by the same problem as above.
  • The prompt at first login via ssh still requests that I upgrade to 20.04 although it seems that the 7.0 upgrader tried to do that already.

Any help on this would be extremely welcome.

Hi,

In case you still have the issue, below you have the workaround developed by Zentyal for Radius module during the upgrade:

* https://github.com/zentyal/zentyal/blob/support/6.2/main/core/src/scripts/release-upgrade#L219

Also, there is a link in the documentation where explains some common issues that could occur after the upgrade:

* https://doc.zentyal.org/en/upgrade.html#troubleshooting

Regarding the message 'FATAL: Could not connect to samba LDAP server: connect: Permission denied', you need to analyse the following log files in order to identify the location of that 'permission denied'.

* /var/log/zentyal/zentyal.log
* /var/log/syslog
* /var/log/samba/samba.log

Finally, you must check if Ubuntu was upgraded and also, if some of the Zentyal modules too. Below you have the commands that you must run:

Code: [Select]
## To see if Ubuntu was upgrade
lsb_release -a

## To get the version of each module
dpkg -l | egrep 'zen(buntu|tyal)-'

## To get the packages that are not correctly installed oh held
dpkg -l | egrep -v '^ii'

Hey, i just fix a similar problem that happens after updating initial Zenyial7 installation. A problem was wrong permission of folder /var/lib/samba/private. It must be 0755 (root:root) according to un-updated installation. Looks like candidate for bug report?
