Hahaha

Isn't it true that this won't work unless the platform is running already? Right now, AFAICT from @tim.w.newsom's description, there is nothing listening on TCP port 80.

If it cannot be done already, I think it would be great if there was a way to run the updateDiagnosticTool script from the Diagnostic Tool on port 8081.

That's how I understand it currently, @aaiyar.

The URL in the doc will update the tool, but IIRC there was a cut off where it doesn’t work if it’s too old. This is an edge case, so creating a documented procedure might not make sense.

Blue light on the C4 doesn’t indicate there’s no platform running. Not sure what the issue is. Going to need @bobbyD or @gopher.ny to assist.

Let's try a few of things here... replace hubs.ip.address.here with actual IP.

  1. Run this in command prompt or terminal: curl -s -X POST http://hubs.ip.address.here:8081/api/getLatest
    This might get the latest version of hub software. I'm saying might because we don't know what the diagnostics tool version is.

  2. There may be a reset screen at http://hubs.ip.address.here:8081/resetHub, see if that works. If there is a screen, it should give some options, please PM me a screenshot.

  3. There also is a "last resort" URL at :slight_smile: CENSORED :slight_smile: ...

Now that my first 24 hours are up and I can reply again..
I was contact by support and informed that the system could not be booted since it didn't have any previous version on it. So I am upgrading to a C-7, to get started.

Well, I’m sure there is a way to do it if you shipped the hub back to @bobbyD. When the hubs are first brought up, they have nothing on them.

It's a C-4. The hub warranty is long gone. He'll be much happier with the performance of a C-7 anyway.

But @bobbyD has so much spare time, and he likes a challenge now and then to shake his boredom.

Bah. I say either support makes it work, or sends him a C-7 for free. :wink:

That has not been the case in over 2 years. All hubs come preloaded to avoid the kind of problems that @tim.w.newsom ran into.

You misunderstood my statement. First brought up. At the factory, at time of manufacture. From ground zero.

Ah, you youngsters who never brought up computers in the sixties.
