Hi juan2k,

I have not yet an idea about what happens really but it seems that the upload step fails. :scratch

A cause can be there is not enough free space in the tmp folder.

So with a putty terminal, what is the output of this command line :

Code: Select all

df -h /dev/sda5

and usually you must get

Code: Select all

Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5               772.0M     22.5M    741.7M   3% /rw_fs

Hi,

here the output for the df command

root@fvdwsl-base:/ # df -h /dev/sda5
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 764.3M 17.1M 739.4M 2% /rw_fs
root@fvdwsl-base:/ #

So you have enough space. :whistle

Coud you try again to upload the firmware bin file and just after getting the error message, what is the output of

Code: Select all

ls -al /rw_fs/tmp

it seems no file is uploaded (or partially) :scratch

Need to check the code what this can mean...Please wait

[Jocko]

an upload file fails with php (connexion reset) when some settings in php.ini are not rightly set.

Do you make some change in this file or in the httpd.conf file ?

You can also make a try to upload a small file (~kB). Note : if successful, do not commit the step 2 !!!

[fvdw]

which file did you select to do the upgrade ?

please specify the name, The pictures are difficult to read but it seems you used the wrong file

[fvdw]

it must be a file with this name, extracted from the zip archive for nwsp2 to upgrade to fvdw-sl-14-0

Code: Select all

xfvdw-sl-14-0-nwsp2-23dec2012.bin

Remember : step1 succeeds with any file. Checks are done at the step2
