Updating to Latest

[ptmuldoon]

I have a new Wink Hub that I rooted out of the box before it took any updates. As far I know, everything went correctly, and I can SSH into the Hub and was able to get the Hub connected to the App.

Now of course, it wants to update. I'm pretty sure I am sitting at version 0.01.

I'm pretty certain the current Wink version is 0.77 now. Will following these same steps still keep me rooted?

I will have to try... I haven't dealt with 0.77 yet

upgade steps for 0.56 still works for 0.77.
The main noticeable difference in the 0.77, updater-rootfs have been updated and set_dev_value.php has been removed.

I tried to update my (previously rooted) hub using the instructions.
First, I should note that I already had 00.56 version at that moment, but I still tried to repeat all instructions from the very first line - maybe it was bad idea...
Here is what I had:

Code: Select all

[root@flex-dvt ]# for i in `find /database/cf* -type f`; do echo -n "$i="; cat $i; done
/database/cf_build=00.01

cp: can't stat '/var/www/set_dev_value.php': No such file or directory

When I noticed that set_dev_value.php was not there anymore (I tried with `find` starting from root directory - the file was not found at all), I re-created it manually and continued:

Code: Select all

[root@flex-dvt www]# cp /var/www/set_dev_value*.php /tmp/rootfs/var/www/
[root@flex-dvt ]# for i in `find /database/cf* -type f`; do echo -n "$i="; cat $i; done

/database/cf_fver0=00.01
/database/cf_fver1=00.08
/database/cf_fver2=00.01
/database/cf_fver3=00.82
[root@flex-dvt ]# reboot


After this reboot, I am not able to connect to the hub anymore The hub itself works, keeping all the devices previously connected, Wink apps works as well etc. - but no SSH or other access; curl gives "curl: (7) Failed connect to 192.168.1.4:80; No error"...
Any ideas?

[deeproot]

if you goto your http://yourwinkip/set_dev_value.php does it still work? if so you can just cat a ssh pub key in and get back to ssh shell.
