Hi,

I’d first check if /etc/apt/sources.list.d/20_ucs_online_component.list contains valid sources for all components. As far as I know it is safe to run the OX-Licence module from UMC to check if the OX-license is still valid.

/var/log/univention/updater.log may contain more information about the mentioned error itself, especially to identify what the “502” code is referring to.

Best Regards,

updater.log doesn’t give any clue about the error posted on the GUI. Actually, that is an additional issue there are no logs of the source of this problem. Licensing is valid and rechecked.

Hi,

could you try to run “univention-upgrade” from the command-line and check the output and the changed logs in /var/log/univention?

Dirk

In Zugriff auf App-Center schlägt fehl we also had a 502 status when trying to access the App Center.
It was caused by proxy settings.

Cheers,
Dirk

Dirk,
Can you be more specific about “it was caused by a proxy setting”. Where ? how? to solve the problem … thanks.

Di Dirk,
Here is the output I get:

Hi,

in the mentioned case the server was not able to connect to the App Center host with http directly. The system had to go through a proxy which was not possible. I dont have more details and can just guess that the 5xx response was thrown by the proxy. A solution depends on the specific environment.

Something to know about how the OX-Updates:
The file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/20_ucs-online-component.list of a system with OXSE4UCS contains a list of URLs like:

deb http://YOURLDBACCOUNT:YOURLDBPASSWORD@software.open-xchange.com/OX6/OXSEforUCS/3.1/maintained/component/frontend72/ ./ deb http://YOURLDBACCOUNT:YOURLDBPASSWORD@software.open-xchange.com/OX6/OXSEforUCS/3.1/maintained/component/backend72/ ./

It might be worth trying to access the host software.open-xchange.com manually like this:

[code]root@slave1:~# wget -S http://YOURLDBACCOUNT:YOURLDBPASSWORD@software.open-xchange.com/OX6/OXSEforUCS/3.1/maintained/

Hi Community,
Was able to workaround the problem with the following command:
# univention-add-app oxseforucs --latest --all

      From my perspective there are problems with the  GUI online update / upgrade.

SOLVED!
