Support and Troubleshooting

Hi
I am currently running 0.5.1.
I get the Umbrel 0.5.3 is now available popup, but after running the installation process and restarting, I am still on v. 0.5.1?

What could be the issue here?

You could try manually updating with the procedure from the guide

To manually update your node using SSH access.

Make a channels backup. Go to Umbrel dashboard - Lightning and on the right top side, 3 dots, save backup on your local PC.

A. For Rasp Pi users:

Enter using SSH into your Umbrel node, then run:

cd ~/umbrel && sudo ./scripts/update/update--repo getumbrel/umbrel#v0.4.8

Replace v0.4.8 with the version you want to update to.

If the update was stuck in update, run this before the above command:

sudo rm statuses/update-in-progress
sudo rm statuses/update-status.json

Restart your node if is done OK:

sudo reboot

B. For normal Linux OS users:

  • Make a channels backup. Go to Umbrel dashboard - Lightning and on the right top side, 3 dots, save backup on your local PC.
  • Stop Umbrel node:
 sudo ./scripts/stop

  • Save your lnd.conf file if you edited (add color, name or specific features to your node). How to edit lnd.conf in Umbrel. More details about what you can add to a lnd.conf file here . After version 0.4.0 this file is not overwritten anymore with a default one, but just in case, make a backup.

  • Update system:

 sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

  • Restart system

  • Update Umbrel (replace version with the latest release):

cd ~/umbrel && sudo ./scripts/update/update --repo getumbrel/umbrel#v0.4.8

  • Replace lnd.conf file with the one you save it before update (After version 0.4.0 this file is not overwritten anymore with a default one)

  • Start Umbrel:

sudo ./scripts/start
  • Leave the node to catch up with blocks and logs, usually takes several minutes, be patient. Now you can enter into dashboard Umbrel
