Updating TinyPilot behind proxy

    Hi,

    we currently have a couple of TinyPilot Voyagers and are in a company network and sitting behind a proxy.
    We would like to update via WebGUI but there is no way to set a proxy via webGUI.

    I have enabled SSH and set the proxy via command for GIT, PIP and APT

    GIT:

    git config --global http.proxy http://<proxy.server>:<port>
    

    PIP:

    export https_proxy="http://<proxy.server>:<port>"
    

    APT:

    With vi I edited the file "90curtin-aptproxy" under /etc/apt/apt.conf.d
    

    Then I did the following command:

    /opt/tinypilot/scripts/upgrade
    

    Which installs 2.3.2, but the current version is 2.4.0

    https://tinypilotkvm.com/pro/changes

    How can I configure the TinyPilot in such a way that we could also use update it via WebGUI and how come the terminal command is installing an older version and no the current 2.4.0?

    Thanks and kind regards

        Hello @admj0shi - Welcome to the Forum, and thank you for posting your questions here.

        I'm sorry you are having this issue. Unfortunately, I can’t think of any reason why the upgrade script would update to the wrong version.

                Hey @admj0shi! Can you try the following?

                • Please edit /home/tinypilot/settings.yml and delete this line: tinypilot_repo_branch: 2.3.2
                • Then try to update again:
                sudo /opt/tinypilot-privileged/update 2>&1 | \ 
                  curl -F '_=<-' https://logs.tinypilotkvm.com
                
                • Remember to reply back with the URL you will be given.

                    Actually, if you have not done it yet... instead of deleting the line please replace it with: tinypilot_repo_branch: 2.4.1

                    That's because otherwise the default repo is master, which is not necessarily a stable release. Right now, master equals 2.4.1 because we just released, but long-term, you will not want to keep updating against master.
