25.07 failed install

What does your memory usage look like?
Other than exhausting drive space the next suspect on the 1100 is RAM exhaustion. You may need to disable or remove any large packages during the upgrade.

@stephenw10 You know whats funny...After i posted this i wanted to do a google search for the error i was seeing.
First link for me is this: https://forum.netgate.com/topic/195313/sg1100-to-24-11-issues
Turns out, i had this issue before. And was the same reason before. SNMP needed to be disabled.
-
Hmm, that's just the included snmp not the net-snmp package?
-
@stephenw10 yep. the default installation of SNMP package.
-
OK I'll try to replicate it.
-
@stephenw10 Let me know if you want to review my Oxidized diffs. It will show that prior to the disable of SNMP (i didnt know that was the problem at first) i removed Tailscale package. Thats where the first failure occured. Then i disabled SNMP like i did last year and it works.
Wasnt there an issue with a memory leak? Maybe im misremembering things..
-
One user reported a leak but we have never managed to replicate it. However that would only really apply to a device that had been up for some time. A reboot before upgrade would have removed it.
-
Prior to reboot i did have an uptime of 231 days. I dont remember how long the uptime was for the 24.11 issue but this firewall doesnt get rebooted often.
-
Check the memory RRD graphs. If there was a leak it should be pretty obvious.
-
-
You would at least see free memory decreasing over time. Check a longer date range that includes up to the upgrade.
-
@stephenw10 Here is 3 months. Besides the very strange drop in September it seems...normal?
-
Yeah no obvious leaks there.
-
@stephenw10 curious as to what your testing will reveal. keep me posted!
