OS update disappeared from app center

Hello, few days ago I seen that I can update OS. For some reason download of OS was started automatically, before I know I had to do it by my self. OS was downloaded, and ready to be installed. There for some reason “image” to install it is gone and I can’t update OS. I think I have to reset App Center in some way. I restarted PC, waited to OS update “image” to come back but it have not returned.

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

Have found some commands from forum and tryed them out. I will not use eos-diagnostics command since I seen it reveals personal data.

What should I expect now to happend? Wait for to download OS, once before it sayed it have done that, but after I had problem that was not able to instal it. OS was alredy downloaded before. In app center it say that OS is downloading now. I will wait a day or two.
Now if I run gnome-software command it just open app center, no errors.

If I run: eos-updater-ctl update It write the same as before it did first time.


I can’t comment there, but problem for this is solved by fallowing instructions bellow.
Iam using Endless 3.8.6 version.

press the keys alt+f2, write the letter r and press enter

https://support.endlessos.org/en/help-center/Why-does-the-computer-seem-to-get-slower-over-time-or-when-visiting-a-lot-of-websites

This is all I see in app center under updates tab and on top left side it say, Checking… But I can click it to stop, and it won’t. Even on Update for Endless >>Cancel<< don’t do anything at all, and progresses bar never changed even first time it told me that it have “downloaded OS”.

I fallowed this: https://support.endlessos.org/en/help-center/How-do-I-make-a-debug-log-of-Endless-OS
Run this 2 commands:

  • Run killall gnome-software
  • Run gnome-software --verbose > gnome-software-verbose.txt – this will launch the app center and gather a lot of debug output to a text file

Here I tried to uninstall wiki in Indian language. App center, just close it self. I really like to uninstall it.

gnome-software-verbose.txt (603.7 KB)

I run gnome-software --verbose > gnome-software-verbose.txt again.
gnome-software-verbose2.txt (1.1 MB)
This time I have not done uninstall, since i seen all apps in Update tab. And OS, asking me if I like to download it by my own choice this time. When I closed Terminal App Center closed too.

This is what I see now:

Done download, all work okey, was able to update now.

Do you have any network issues? Your logs are full of lines like:

Error resolving “ostree.endlessm.com”: Name or service not known

Can you access the Internet via Chrome?

I removed some lines out, I don’t have network problems.
