Updating greyhole to 0.9.7

I notice the version that ships with Amahi is 0.9.2 but there was a bugfix in 0.9.7 I really need. Is it safe to uninstall hda-greyhole and install greyhole-0.9.7, or are there customizations in hda-greyhole I will lose?

I NOT would recommend it. The Amahi version integrates with the dashboard. There may be other minor customizations, but recommend you wait for the Amahi version to be upgraded.
Of course its your box, so you can try it if you choose. Be aware we will be unable to provide support.

I'll wait. For now I have turned off making additional copies to prevent the bug from happening.

Not sure what the bug is as I have not had any issues with the current version. Probably a good idea to wait though.

You can get into a state where there are tombstones that are marked as pending that don't get out of that state.

You can find the 0.9.7 hda-greyhole RPM in the Archives page:
http://www.greyhole.net/download/archives.html
Specifically, install with:
Code: Select all
rpm -Uvh http://www.greyhole.net/releases/hda-greyhole-0.9.7-1.`uname -i`.rpm

I was trying to install the latest version by the instructions above, but I get the following error message.
I assume from the error message that I first have to update samba, how do I go about doing that, and is it safe to do or do I risk breaking something in Amahi?
Code: Select all
rpm -Uvh http://www.greyhole.net/releases/hda-greyhole-0.9.7-1.`uname -i`.rpm
Retrieving http://www.greyhole.net/releases/hda-greyhole-0.9.7-1.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
samba >= 3.4.3 is needed by hda-greyhole-0.9.7-1.i386

Perfectly safe to do, and you should do it.
Anything below that is just not compatible with Greyhole: there is a bug in those older versions that will prevent you from being able to delete files from Greyhole shares.

Thanks for the quick reply!
I updated samba, then greyhole, then rebooted.
But now greyhole doesn't start, there seems to be a problem connecting to the database.
From /var/log/greyhole.log:
Code: Select all
