Update freezes

Embedded INDI StellarMate

Hello all!

I need help with my Stellarmate+.
A few days ago, i decided to update the Stellarmate i bought in 2021. I´ve been using it since then without updating him.
I use it as a “bridge” between my equipment and my laptop in wich i have Kstars always updated (currently in ver. 7.7.3 Stable.
The Stellarmate was with version 1.5.9 and i decided do update him via the Dashboard. But since than, the update it´s stuck. I´ve tried doing it thru VNC, but without success.
And if i try using it as i ussually do, now i cant connect in my laptop and the web manager doesn´t even appear.
I´ve also tried VNC and can start Ekos, but the only thing responding is the mount. The CCD drivers (Toupcam and ZWO) crash and wont even connect.

Can someone help me and guide me to solve this issue?

I would try running the update from a Terminal window so you can see any useful messages printed out.

VNC into the Stellarmate and open Terminal. Then type:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade

See what that says.

Well, that’s not super helpful. At least you know everything has been updated. Hopefully someone else will have an idea.
