Even better news !

Hi, MT support

Check for update cannot download the rc version of the mips and ARM files would be forgotten place?

My best regards.

*) wireless - “wireless-cm2” discontinued, uninstall it before update;

What does this mean ?
Are we going to be able to update boards that we are connected to via wireless ?

*) wireless - “wireless-cm2” discontinued, uninstall it before update;

As before: Uninstall Error - can not uninstall bundled package (6)

I will try disable and upgrade…

When trying to download the version of the site get the following error.
Following is the url to the site sends and error.

Error:
404 - Not Found

hello! so i get this error… https://s32.postimg.org/t6hcsxcyt/error_update.jpg

Works. Disable, reboot, upgrade. Please do not write uninstall when that is not possible. or be more specific disable if package is bundled in your setup, uninstall if you have manually installed the package.

via WinBox GUI ping, got ERROR : no address

Updated from 6.36 to 6.37rc4 on a RB951-2n.. Did the update over wireless, but of course it didn’t not come back.
I see I should have updated it over Ethernet.

I had to manually enable ‘Wireless’ package and manually enable the wlan1 interface and re-program SSID/frequency etc.. So its like a fresh new interface (nothing was copied over from cm2)

Apart from that the update went ok.
Using it ok at the moment as a test box..

We are sorry for any inconvenience. As we just released only one wireless package and there were actually four of them in the past, we are still updating our upgrade server so it would work correctly for any case.

When we will fix it only way that you can lose wireless connection will be if you have more than one wireless package outside of bundle package. You have to remove packages manually until only one standalone package is installed. Then (hopefully today) upgrade process must go automatically and you should not see “missing wireless package” errors any more.

So we are to expect that the problems upgrading over wireless will be limited to the rc versions and when final comes out we will be able to do it with the upgrade process automatically uninstall absolete packages ?

  1. with bundle “routeros” package, upgrade will replace wireless package automatically;
  2. with one standalone wireless package, upgrade will replace wireless package automatically;
  3. with two or more standalone wireless packages, upgrade will result in no wireless packages installed, uninstall extra packages first.

So after we will adjust server only thing that you need to check before upgrade is #3,.

“Address List” - a very good
“Interface List” - excellent

Possible to make a “MAC List”? :open_mouth:
Please! :slight_smile:

Best regards!

Upgrade now is fixed and if you have out of bundle single wireless package, then now you should be able to upgrade correctly.

Still - if you have more than one out of bundle wireless package, then you need to remove packages until only one is left and then upgrade.

Thanks for clarification.
That sounds good enough and for someone like me who always installs bundled package this is a no issue. And I have installed wireless-rep as a separate on a few boards for testing, but only that I can reach by lan.

Version 6.37rc5 has been released.

Fixes in last RC:

*) address-list - allow DNS names with “_” symbol;
*) conntrack - fixed ipv6 timeout display;
*) conntrack - fixed removing icmpv6 connections;

*) export - removed unnecessary “log-prefix” on firewall export;
*) firewall - fixed time based rules on time/timezone changes;

on old versions
this script:

:do {/ip firewall address-list add address=22.22.22.22 comment="Banned-X" list=list-X} on-error={ :put "failed add 22.22.22.22"};

on subsequent executions, return on-error={ :put “failed add 22.22.22.22”}


after version v6.36
this script:

:do {/ip firewall address-list add address=google.com comment="google.com" timeout=0 list="BAN-list"} on-error={:put "failed add google.com, already exists."};

does not return on-error, adds a duplicate (this bug only with the URL, when adding IP - returns on-error)

PS: when added through WinBox the same problem - it is possible to create a duplicate

Version: 6.37rc5
Ping tool doesn’t work from Winbox and WebFig. It shows: ERROR: no address
From terminal ( ping 8.8.8.8 ) it works without problem.
