Can't update Roon Server from build 1455 to 1462

Describe your network setup

Silent Angel Z1C (Roon Server), Fritz!Box 7690 (Router)

Hello @DonDirkos ,

Can you please try to perform a full reboot of your Roon Server (power off, wait 30 seconds for server to be fully off, power back on). Then try the update again and let us know if this helps.

Thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately, your suggestion does not solve the problem.

I am not sure if the update problems are caused by using VitOS to install the roon server on my Silent Angel Rhein Z1C.

Maybe I need to wait until the roon server update is available in VitOS?

I found this in the log files:

Did you ask Silent Angel who sold it to you?

Yes, the answer is still pending.

At the moment it looks more like a bug in the Roon Linux installer. It seems that a directory cannot be created and the update process is aborted.

Hi @DonDirkos,

Roon is unpacking the update to a static filename that remains in existence, probably from a previous update.

This machine is not officially supported by Roon and it remains the jurisdiction of the manufacturer to provide support these cases. Please see here:
