I added a script to shut down my Umbrel at night using crontab (installed via apt), and it worked perfectly on version 1.6. However, after updating, all my settings were wiped. To make matters worse, it won’t even let me install or modify packages on my OWN machine anymore. What the hell happened? How do I fix this? Honestly, if I’d known this would happen, I never would’ve updated
I’m done with this, I’m deleting Umbrel today after i finish backing all my data
there was a post on X from Umbrel team, I can’t find it but here’s what it said:
"woops sorry that was a bug and it’s now fixed in beta 2. you can simply ssh in:
then run:
sudo rugix-ctrl system reboot --spare
this would rollback your umbrelOS to 1.5 (without any data loss). you can then normally update to 1.7 beta 2 via the UI again"
later edit: found it

Thank you, i found another solution too, you can run:
sudo rugix-ctrl state overlay force-persist true
And enable system persist after reboot or shutdown. But i guess it should be an option to able/disable it in the interface, and allow user to make what he wants to, it’s a private server anyway.
