CAPsMAN upgrade fails because no file

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

My ap cannot get upgraded by CAPsMAN because of “failed to download file “routeros-mipsbe-6.xx.xx.npk” , no such file”

That file doesn’t exist into RB indeed
As I upgrade CAPs Manager online , how can I get that file to be downloaded and saved into manager other than automatically installed by online upgrade ?

Thanks

Same problem here. Is there anything that must be done on the CAPsMAN machine EXFCEPT pressing Upgrade?

what RB do you use as CAPsMAN and what as CAPs?
it looks like that they have different architecture. if it is so, it can be solved very easy

I have same problem…
CAPsMAN is ARM and CAPs are mipsbe. How I can fix problem?

Im find solution…
First you need copy firmware(.npk) files to one folder on mikrotik. Im create new folder with name “firmware” and copy files to it. “pub” folder can also be used.
Then you need on CAPsMAN Manager settings set “Package Path” to this folder(“/firmware”):

/caps-man manager set package-path=/firmware

And then upgrade work normaly…

I’m resuming this post because I need to update whole capsman system in one shot (last manager update causes to lose wifi , as upgrade policy was set as “require same version” and I want to keep this but do not upgrade by hand)

Manager is Arm , ap are mipsbe

I think the fastest solution is a script to download latest npk (for mipsbe) into manager and then call the manager update itself.

Anyone so kind to suggest a working script (or at least a starting point to discuss) ??

Thank you
