SBC3 system software update problem

Post by dstockman12 »

My SBC3 stopped connecting wirelessly to my home wifi. I ended up doing a hard reset and now I cannot get the system updated correctly.
I cannot install Java. When I use the web interface to install Java the web interface says the install happened, but Java is not installed. Before trying to install Java I did the following.

I edited the file: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/multistrap-debian.list to contain:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
then ran apt-get update. I have the sbc3 connected via ethernet cable to a Win11 computer. Lots of files were not found.


Then I tried using web interface with System/Packages and Upgrade All Packages. Below are the errors I get:

The Forum interface will not get me post so many URLs, so I will replace http://www.phidgets.com with ***

What should I try next to get the SBC3 working again?

If I can get the upgrade to work and can install Java JRE, how do I update to Phidget22, from 21? I believe there is a firmware update I saw. How do I do this? I followed on-line directions to install but that failed.

Looks like a network issue, the SBC can't find a route to phidgets.com. Are you just using DHCP on the SBC? Does it have a proper IP address? Is it connected to the internet?

I'm able to upgrade older SBCs here, so It's not a phidgets.com issue.

Your SBC may be having deeper issue considering that you had to reset it. Are there any errors if you have a look at the syslog?
