Ubuntu 4.1.2 upgrade problem

Hello:
FYI, I had problems upgrading from OpenEMR 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 using the commandline. On the last step, it said there was no such package found. So I just upgraded by double-clicking on the .deb file, which opened up the Software Manager, and clicked “upgrade.”

I hope I didn’t do anything wrong by doing it this way.
Thanks!

Hi,

I think you should be ok, but not sure; may want to install a simple package via command line (such as ‘vim’) to ensure your package system is working ok. Guessing you should of done following on commandline after the “error”:
sudo apt-get install -f
(note in instructions set to enter above command if there is an error: http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_Package_Upgrade_to_4.1.2#Command_line_Ubuntu_Upgrade)

The reason I don’t give instructions on using the graphic method (ie. point and click) for the upgrade process is that it won’t show errors if something goes wrong.

Could also scan through /var/log/openemr/<the only file here; I forgot the name of it> to ensure no obvious errors. Also can scan through /etc/openemr/<the only file here; I forgot the name of it> to ensure no obvious issues there.
