I think Fedora releases that old typically can't be upgraded via the network as the repos are archived and not active anymore.

F21 includes dnf system upgrade, so it'll be the same for both steps.

The updates are a nuisance, even if they go through without new bugs for you to deal with (some completely new, others related to incompatibility with what's left behind from previous installs). Time-consuming, storage-space-consuming, etc. And to have to do that several times over. Once is annoying enough (I stopped trying to do that years ago). Not to mention that there's a very good chance that as you go through different releases, you'll strike things that cause new problems, with each release. Dropped and changed packages, may remove things you wanted, or make them incompatible with past data. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.

Neither Fedup nor dnf is guaranteed to work when skipping versions, so to get from 20 to 24 (or 25) you will probably have to do several stages: 20 -> 21 21 -> 22 22 -> 23 23 -> 24 24 -> 25 The first few will use Fedup, the later ones will use dnf. The chances of having a problem increase with the number of stages, even after you solve your first problem (which is simply lack of space). I'm not saying it will happen, but it might. Every new release of Fedora brings a spate of emails from people who have had issues with upgrading (of course those who don't have a problem tend not to talk about it as much and I personally have only had good experiences). That's why I suggest that you simply reinstall.

Your choice of course. Using Fedora means being prepared to upgrade your system at least every year. If you aren't prepared to do that, then you are probably better using a system with greater long term stability. A good choice might be CentOS as it's quite similar to Fedora. However no-one is saying you have to "make your machine from scratch". If you are taking regular backups you are already prepared for the possibility of losing a disk or upgrading to a new machine. Reinstalling the system is generally easier than either of those scenarios.

I believe the upgrade log is in /var/log/upgrade.log. You might want to try this: # dnf --allowerasing --assumeno update | tee dnflog.txt If I recall correctly, this happened to me on only one system I tried upgrading from F21 -> F22. There I blithely did a 'dnf update' just to see what would happen. (It was an experimental system so I was OK with being foolhardy). In that case, the update just solved everything. However, I'm not fully confident it will work for you, but if you look at the output (dnflog.txt) you'll see a list of what would happen if you ran the update. Ideally, you'll see lots of potential updates, and very few potential removals (maybe old kernels, but make sure at least one is being updated). Based on the results, you can decide what if any data to back up, and then try it. YMMV, caveat emptor. -- Paul W.

A couple of suggestions, with some risk, but pretty low. Maybe try a dnf distro-sync first? If it thinks the machine is at f21, perhaps it will clean everything up. And you can run fedup again. Maybe it will even see the f22 release and sync it to f22 instead. Or, you could go into /etc/yum.repos.d/ and turn off the f21 repos, and turn on the f22 repos, and then run dnf upgrade again. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

On a mostly-Fedora-20 system, I wouldn't expect dnf to be installed. Your machine is in a weird state, so these are somewhat draconian measures to try to drag it into currency. The alternative is a good backup followed by a fresh install of F22 or whatever you want to use. That I agree with.

You also seem to have a local repo and that may be where your F23 stuff is coming from. I'm still not sure why your fedup is not puking when you specify the "--product" flag. It is NOT allowed with the current 0.9.2 versions, so the first thing I'd do is sort out which fedup you're getting. Could you possibly have an old fedup that's getting called instead of the one in /bin (perhaps in /usr/local/bin or something)? You could try "which fedup" to see which one is being called. Second, I wouldn't even attempt an update to F22 from here. I would upgrade to F21 first with the local repo disabled. You might be able to disable it at the command line: fedup --network 21 --disablerepo=\*local\* or you may have to edit the repo config file and set "enabled=0" in it for all the stanzas. Make sure you have a RELIABLE backup before you attempt any of these upgrades. However you disabled the local repo, if the upgrade is successful then go through the whole distrosync and everything to make SURE it's an F21 system. Finally, you

If you do such things, running fedup probably isn't going to work out very well or atleast it is not something that has been tested during the QA process.

Also check your repos.d files and make sure you haven't enabled rawhide. Hi Rick, None of rawhide repos are enabled. The latest version of fedup in f21 is fedpkg-1.20-1.fc21.noarch.rpm fedpkg is NOT fedup. fedpkg is to permit you to download sources from koji or git. # rpm -q fedup fedup-0.9.2-1.fc21.noarch I have the same version: [root@prophead ~]# rpm -qa | grep fedup fedup-0.9.2-1.fc21.noarch # fedup --network 22 usage: fedup [options] fedup: error: This installation of Fedora does not belong to a product, so you must provide the =PRODUCTNAME option to specify what product you want to upgrade to. PRODUCTNAME should be one of: workstation: the default Fedora experience for laptops and desktops, powered by GNOME. server: the default Fedora experience for servers cloud: a base image for use on public and private clouds nonproduct: choose this if none of the above apply; in particular, choose this if you are using an alternate-desktop spin of Fedora Selecting a product will also install its standard package-set in addition to upgrading the packages already on your system. If you prefer to maintain your current set of packages, select 'nonproduct'. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading for more information. That's not what THAT version of fedup should report. It should look like: [root@prophead ~]# fedup --network 22 --product=nonproduct usage: fedup [options] fedup: error: unrecognized arguments: --product=nonproduct [root@prophead ~]# fedup --product=nonproduct --network 22 usage: fedup [options] fedup: error: unrecognized arguments: --product=nonproduct (I did it twice, swapping around where you stuck "--product=nonproduct" just to show you). So you are running an incorrect version of fedup. Get that resolved first. That's in the upgrade instructions. Also in the upgrade instructions, they tell you that you MUST make sure you're running the current system or you're going to get a bunch of very weird things going on. Right now it appears you have a very curious mix of F20 and F21 on your machine and you're going to have problems trying to fedup.

As others have suggested: 1. Make a backup of your system. 2. Bring it up to current F21 standards using yum or dnf. You might even have to do a "dnf --distro-sync" to drag it kicking and screaming up to F21. 3. Make sure you're running the LATEST fedup and try the upgrade again,

I've been downloading the fedora 22 workstation and server dvds just in case. Re-installing my laptops is not much of a problem, its my home servers where I want to be sure prior to going from fedora x to x+1. Also, I'd like to keep using KDE, but, at least for this laptop, that may not be possible. Well, that all looks in order. So, you are able to boot and you do get a graphical login screen, but you don't get a cursor and you can't type a password. You looked in the fedup log, located in /var/log, and see no errors. I'm fairly sure the lack of XINPUT lines in the Xorg log is tellingjust have no idea what could be the issue. I've not had a failure in fedup such as this and I've been using it for the past several releases. -- If I wanted a blog or social media I'd go elsewhere -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

A common way to fix the problem is to run this command as root /usr/sbin/akmods --force and then reboot. -- If I wanted a blog or social media I'd go elsewhere -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

If you're using kmod, that means you've been using the rpmfusion nvidia binary driver, right? But it looks like the kernel is trying to use the nouveau open source driver. They're incompatible. Maybe you need to set up to use the nvidia binary blob again. I think this involves blacklisting nouveau and installing the nvidia driver for your kernel.

Need some advice on what to do Could be: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F20_bugs#FedUp-boot-arguments Well the link didn't describe my exact problem but it gave me a clue - I added selinux=0 to the kernel command line---the boot had stalled on the sellinux problem. Fedup then eventually ended up installing everything and so far, with the exception of google-chrome which I had to reinstall everything ***seems*** to have gone well. A nice feeling after reading some of the horror stories around fedup :) Thanks -- 1984 was not meant as a blueprint for democratic governments. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Since fedup doesn't muck with user files, it is doubtful to be a permission issue on your ~/.thunderbird directory. Everything under that directory will be owned by your username. Certainly you can ensure that the files are owned by your username by doing chown -R username:usergroup ~/.thunderbird(using the appropriate values) You'd be much better served to actually post the actual error messages you are getting as opposed to people assuming what you're seeing and then making suggestions based on assumptions that may not be valid. I checked the backup copy I made of .thunderbird before upgrading and the permissions were not the same. I then changed the permissions on the upgraded folder using info found on mozilla forums, etc... with no change. The solution seems to be to delete all the folders, sub-folders, and message filters and rebuild them. I also was extremely pressed for time, and sent in the email extremely quickly before I could include the exact message errors. I apologize for the omission(s). -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
