7.1: 951G-2HnD stuck in 'calculating download size...'

Tue Dec 07, 2021 11:53 pm

I see that 7.1 is out and have managed to upgrade a cap ac2 without apparent issues.
I just tried to do the same with a 951G-2HnD after first upgrading to 6.49.2 which seemed to work fine.
When I choose the upgrade channel I see the 7.1 upgrade and download and install gets stuck calculating download size and no progress is made.
Any suggestions on whether I can complete this? I've tried a couple of times with a reboot in between and had no joy.

I can share my configuration if that's relevant.

Thanks,

Simon

I had the same problem. Just download the Main Package for your router (https://mikrotik.com/download), upload it to your router using "Files" and then just reboot the router.

I found in another thread that uninstalling the 'non bundled' packages resolves this problem. e.g. multicast/user-manager/lcd/lte/etc.

This worked for me.

Thanks I'll try that when I get a chance. Would be good to fix this sort of thing. Is there an official place to file bugs?

Same also for the CRS125-24G-1S-2HnD.
So clearly this method works but is far from ideal.

I also notice that webfig shows: RouterOS v7.1 (testing).
"testing"? The fact that routeros 7.1 has been announced seems to imply this should not be referenced as a "testing" version. Is that unintentional?

Clearly when testing version "0" you expect a few rough edges and so far the couple of routers I've upgraded running OSPF (ipv4) have other than this seemed to work fine so I'm happy with the upgrade. I think I'll let these run for a couple of days and then upgrade the remaining 2 routers I have at home.

One thing I'd like to see is zerotier support for routeros-7.1 mipsbe. That would be really cool and with something like a map lite would make it easy doing "cross anything vpns" easily.
I'll have to look at the other features 7.1 brings as some of those may be interesting too, but for home usage they may be less important.

This upgrade to v7.1 caused problems:
# MMM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS by RouterOS 7.1
# software id = YIIS-GV3Q
#
# model = RBD52G-5HacD2HnD
I have several routers connected (at home) using ospf. This box connects to the Internet.
After the upgrade internet connectivity "failed". The reason was the default route was not being exported.

Previous config had:
/routing ospf instance
set [ find default=yes ] distribute-default=if-installed-as-type-2 name=\
    ospf_r0 redistribute-connected=as-type-1 router-id=192.168.252.0
The modified config for v7 had:
/routing ospf instance
  add name=ospf_r0-v2 originate-default=if-installed redistribute=connected \
    router-id=192.168.252.0
which looks ok but the default route was not being sent to other routers (which run v7.1).
I modified this to originate-default=always and things work again but am not sure why this is necessary or if this is expected.

Also the docs in https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Routing/OSPF do not yet match the arguments for v7.
