Issues with updates - I am not able to update anything

Hi,

I just run the command. The file that you wanted to see is empty.

Hi Egrath,

Do you have any other command that I could run? Not sure why this command didn’t work. The file was made, but it is empty.

gnome-software.log (366.1 KB) eos-diagnostic-201031_114234_UTC 0100.txt (1.4 MB)

help to updates my loptop i connot open fast very downloading what can i do please help some

Something that would help us a lot to understand the problem would be this:

  1. Open the application called ‘Terminal’
  2. In this application run the command:

eos-diagnostics

  1. The above command will create a file with the information of your system (example: eos-diagnostic-160614_111731_UTC + 0100.txt); Send us this file so we can analyze and see a possible solution

Hi there,

Could somebody help me as well because my issue is not resolved. I did everything asked, but I am not able to update and “remote gnome” is still not found. No plugin could handle updates. Please check last files I sent. The last command which Egrath gave me made and empty file.

Regards,
Irena

  1. Open the application called ‘Terminal’
  2. In this application run the command:

sudo eos-rollback

irena@endless:~$ sudo eos-rollback

Are you sure you want to rollback to the previous OS version? [y/N] y

These messages can be ignored, they have nothing to do with your particular issue. I’m currently working on a script which eventually could help you to find the root cause, but it’s not ready yet.

/edit: Can you please do the following:

1.) Paste the content from below into a new File (with gedit), then save it as check.sh in your home directory.

#!/bin/bash
TEMPFILE=/tmp/remote-ls.txt
flatpak remote-ls -d -a > ${TEMPFILE}
ostree refs  | grep -E ":.*/.*\." | sort | awk -F ':' '{print $2}'  | while read line
do	
	APPID=$(echo $line | awk -F '/' '{print $2}')
	ARCH=$(echo $line | awk -F '/' '{print $3}')
	BRANCH=$(echo $line | awk -F '/' '{print $4}')

	cat ${TEMPFILE} | grep ${APPID}/${ARCH}/${BRANCH} 2>/dev/null 1>&2
	if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
		echo NOT FOUND: ${APPID}/${ARCH}/${BRANCH}
	fi	
done
rm ${TEMPFILE}
  1. Open a Terminal
  2. Execute:
chmod +x ~/check.sh
~/check.sh
  1. If there is any output, paste it here in this thread.

Hi Egrath,

Thank you for the message. I will do all steps a bit later because I am working in this moment. Just wanted clarification for step 1. Do I paste content in step 1 to gnome terminal and than make the new file? What kind of new file I have to make and save? Really sorry for so many questions. I am learning as we communicate.

Regards,
Irena

Open gedit, then paste it there and save it to a file. Gedit is the Text Editor.

Hi Egrath,

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, I am not able to open gedit. There is a name in applications, and it gives me an option to open it in app center, but app center is showing notification “sorry, there are no details for that application”. Before I had the same issue with Terminal application.

Please disregard above message. I managed to open gedit. File is saved.
This is the output after executing commands:
irena@endless:~$ chmod +x ~/check.sh
irena@endless:~$ ~/check.sh
NOT FOUND: org.gnome.Solitaire/x86_64/eos3
irena@endless:~$

OK this helps, please uninstall Solitaire with:

flatpak uninstall -y org.gnome.Solitaire/x86_64/eos3

Now reboot your computer and check if you can update your system.

irena@endless:~$ flatpak uninstall -y org.gnome.Solitaire/x86_64/eos3

    ID                         Branch       Op
  1. [-] org.gnome.Solitaire eos3 r

Uninstall complete.
irena@endless:~$

Hi Egrath,

As you can see, I uninstalled Solitaire. I restarted my laptop as well. The app center is still shoving the same notification “remote” gnome not found, no plugin to get-updates.

Hi Egrath,

Do you have any other scripts to try? I didn’t realize that this can be such a major issue.

Hi Egrath

I hope you are ok. Do you have anything else I could try. Still no updates.

Regards,
Irena
