Hi,
Having trouble upgrading from M1 -> M2

root@netxms:~/netxms-2.1-M2# /usr/local/netxms/bin/nxdbmgr upgrade
NetXMS Database Manager Version 2.1-M2 Build 9007 (2.1-M2-2-g995c195) (UNICODE)

Upgrading database...
Upgrading from version 417 to 418
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Additional info runnning gdb: 0x00007ffff6e9022e in wcsrchr () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6

[shroman]

Temporarily fixed the issue by adding the following code to upgrade.cpp after line: 886

----------------------------------
  if (xml == NULL)
            xml = _tcsdup(_T(""));
-----------------------------------

I tried to upgrade our NetXMS V2.1-M1 installation to V2.1-M2 on linux x64. I compile from sources. 'configure' reports error "libssh is required for SSH support". I didn't had this problem compiling V2.1-M1, libssh2 and libssh2-devel ist available on this server. Is there a special version needed?

Thanks for any help.

You should install libssh package, e.g. in ubuntu:  apt-get install libssh-4 libssh-dev

Thanks for the quick reply shroman.
That was the solution for that, I didn't needed these 2packages for older versions of NetXMS.

I added the 2lines you suggested to upgrade.cpp after line 886 before I compiled and now it looks like this:

         int filteringFlag = 0;
         int objectToolFlag = DBGetFieldLong(hResult, i, 1);

         if (xml == NULL)
             xml = _tcsdup(_T(""));

         // Separate and reorder flags for filter and for object tools

but after compile I get the error "'xml' was not declared in this scope"

Can you help me here again?

Looks liek you have replace line 886, no inserted lines after it:

884:         int filteringFlag = 0;
885:         int objectToolFlag = DBGetFieldLong(hResult, i, 1);
886:         TCHAR *xml = DBGetField(hResult, i, 2, NULL, 0);   ->>>>>>
-----------------------
          if (xml == NULL)
            xml = _tcsdup(_T(""));
------------------------
         //Separate and reorder flags for filter and for object tools

[user54119]

The unchanged version (downloaded a few hours ago) looks like this here, is it maybe a newer version already fixed?

884:         int filteringFlag = 0;
885:         int objectToolFlag = DBGetFieldLong(hResult, i, 1);
886:
887         // Separate and reorder flags for filter and for object tools

your line 885 is in my version in line 946

[tomaskir]

The upgrade problems are already fixed in develop, so if you get the latest source, no need to change anything.

thanks Tomas, it works

Hello,

Is V2.1-M1 considered stable at this time?  If so, is the download available for V2.1-M1?

I cant seem to find it on the page anywhere.

Thanks,

For now only 2.0.x branch is considered as a stable one. All 2.1-Mx are Milestone releases before 2.1.0, which will be considered as a stable release.
