Update problem on RPi 3+

[Luckbert]

Hallo zusammen, 
Ich habe heute auch versucht, ein neues OP 1.0.0 auf 1.2.0 zu aktualisieren. 
Vor dem Update habe ich 

Code:

sudo apt-mark hold hostapd

ausgeführt wird. 

Leider ist ein Bleich aufgetreten. 
wegen der Länge habe ich die Fehler in eine Textdatei geschrieben. Siehe Anhang. 
Vielleicht kannst du damit etwas anfangen. 
Grüße Jürgen

i had the same thing happen to me try this

sudo apt-mark unhold hostapd ......not needed if you didn't put in on hold

sudo systemctl enable hostapd.service

sudo nano /home/pi/.openplotter/openplotter.conf

change version = 1.2.0 to 1.0.0, mine was blank after update fail.

ctrl x y enter
reboot
try update again

Hello, Jim,
Thanks for the tip.
I was able to update my system now.
But first I had to 

Code:

sudo apt-mark hold hostapd

and then insert your line

Code:

sudo systemctl enable hostapd.service

I didn't have to change the version number. Since the update failed it is still 1.0.0.

Now everything seems to be fine.

Thanks again.
Greetings Jürgen

I too had trouble upgrading from 1.0.2 but your steps worked for me so thanks

Thanks Jim321 and Luckbert,

I had the same problem and your solution works perfectly also for me:


sudo apt-mark hold hostapd

sudo systemctl enable hostapd.service


Reboot and try update again.

i dont think you need to mark hold on hostapd
just enable the hostapd.service

I know this is an old thread but I too am having a problem upgrading a version 1.0.0 to 1.2. I want this as well as a version 2, which is fine.
Version 1 is much simpler for 0183 NMEA only streams.

The problem is a PYTHON compatibility problem, as when using the upgrade tool for 1.0 to 1.2, I get  the following below.
Is there any solution?
