Problem after updating Raspbian Stretch to Buster

General
#1

@dceejay @wb666greene @krambriw I updated my RPI 3B with this tutorial :
Stretch to Buster Raspbian
The problem is, I can't access Node Red anymore.
It seems that the update did not work well. Secund problem i'm not Linux specialist ...

It looks like the update didn't work well because I can't see an IP address.

I remember having accepted, during the update, a program which used the DHCP function. it seems to me that NO was by default, and I put yes ...

Someone have an idea ?

Yes, it's no longer on the network.. If you do normally use DHCP then try sudo dhclient eth0 and then see if that gives you a connection... if so - then ping 1.1.1.1 to check if internet is there and then redo sudo apt -y full-upgrade

If you usually use a static address then try sudo ifconfig eth0 w.x.y.z/24 (where w.x.y.z) is your normal address etc

#3

respond : "cannot find device"eth0" :fearful:

#4

is correct :

:thinking:

ah so it's back online... does the sudo apt -y full-upgrade now proceed ? if not what does cat etc/resolv.conf show for the nameserver ?

"no such file"

#8

I may have a problem with the ethernet circuit driver? can I put it on a usb stick and reinstall it ?
the green led on the ethernet port is flashing so it is working ..

#9

sorry - should have been cat /etc/resolv.conf - but it seems to be ok.
can you try to start Node-RED... node-red-stop && node-red-start

#10

#Generated by resolvconf
nameserver 192.168.1.1

yes its working !

#11

and maybe this for the desktop sudo apt-get --reinstall install raspberrypi-ui-mods - but maybe just need to reboot first...
(meanwhile - you could also check the ffmpeg version which I think is where this all started...)

#12
#13

the reinstallation went well without error, but when I set the boot on DESKTOP GUI automatic login,

it starts on the Console :

PLUS : SSH is comeback that is great BUT the serial port, and VNC not working

#14

what does /etc/init.d/lightdm start report ?

#15 
pi@pi:~ $ /etc/init.d/lightdm start
[....] Starting lightdm (via systemctl): lightdm.service==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-units ===
Authentification requise pour démarrer « lightdm.service ».
Multiple identities can be used for authentication:
 1.  ,,, (pi)
 2.  root
Choose identity to authenticate as (1-2):
#16

and ? pick pi if that is who you usually are...

#17

sorry for delay response :
image
seems to be ok ....

BUT
image
unable to display desktop

vnc is well connected to the network, but the Desktop is not displayed. I also note a malfunction of the UART on the GPIO

image
the processor is overloaded and the swap memory is full
image
perhaps because of the UART issue ?

Stop NR and very low cpu charge

#18

Thanks again @dceejay for your help that you already made me redo NR :slight_smile:

  1. It's good for the UART, I deleted the node and put it back in my flow: it's working now and I'm running at 5-8% CPU load

  2. the Desktop Buster still needs to work ...

#19

Here is my last issue : i can not open the Buster Desktop.

When i type startx , it does't launch.
Here is the xorg log.txt (3.4 KB) about the problem :

There are defaut settings, from config file, informational, warning errors but how to solve then ?

PS : sudo apt-get --reinstall install raspberrypi-ui-mods did already do

If someone have an idea ?
