Netonix Forums

I'm trying to sort columns by Uptime but the order seems incorrect. Is that "feature" broken ?

Is the "Netonix Manager" officially supported or becoming abandonware ? Seems it has a lot of rough edges, and hasn't seen any updates since July 2018..

With this most recent update on the switches. We are moving attention over to the manager.

NM v 1.0.11 is now out.

Check the release notes for details but there have been several requests on this thread for an option to be able to change the amount of connection error's that take place before the switch goes 'offline' just in case there was a network hiccup and you don't necessarily want to get an email about it.

You can now find that option at the bottom of the NM settings window when you click on the gear in the top right corner.

More to come soon.

Just tried to upgrade from 1.0.10 to 1.0.11 on a Debian box...

Code: Select all

 root@nm0.tcwil:~# dpkg -i netonix-manager_1.0.11_all.deb

Ooh, nasty line-ending issue in the postinst script...

Code: Select all

 root@nm0.tcwil:~# /var/lib/dpkg/info/netonix-manager.postinst
-bash: /var/lib/dpkg/info/netonix-manager.postinst: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

Seems to affect quite a few of the installed files - I'm left with a largely non-working install.

Looking into this now. In the mean time try going into the archives on the download section and just use 1.0.10

You've saved the scripts in Windows which has added invalid characters for nix systems. Either save them in the right format to start with, or use the dos2unix tool to convert them, then repackage.

Well, that's partially true,

Turns out I was using a newer version of a build tool we use which apparently has a nasty habit of adding in little things like that along with failing to add in script files when being built for linux.

I have pushed the new .deb, tar.gz, and .exe and they appear to work for me now on windows and ubuntu.

The update feature in the manager might have an issue for this release though because there where some changes to the server between 1.0.10 and 1.0.11 being released so it might be necessary to re-install manually.

slimey, when you go to re-install it now you might run into an issue where dpkg complains that the netonix-manager install wasn't completed preventing you from overwriting it.

If that happens, try running these commands as root:

Code: Select all

rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/netonix-manager*
dpkg -r netonix-manager


Then of course proceed normally with the installation:

Code: Select all

dpkg -i netonix-manager_1.0.11_all.deb


If you don't see that issue, then you should just be able to install everything like normal.
