Seafile Server 7.0.3 for Raspberry Pi is ready! 17.07.2019

jobenvil · July 17, 2019, 10:24am

You can get it from the Seafile download section.

We warmly recommend you first, before to proceed with the update, to take a view to the Seafile ChangeLog, because the requirements had changed considerably in the last releases

Please remember:

Don’t forget to stop Seafile Server before the upgrade (i.e: service seafile-server stop or, another example: service seahub stop && service seafile stop)
Don’t forget to change the directory rights of Seafile after unpacking it (i.e: chown -R seafile:nogroup seafile-server-7.0.3 or, another example: sudo chown -R seafile:seafile seafile-server-7.0.3 )
Don’t forget to apply the upgrade script/s according your start release && with the properly user which in normal case should be seafile (i.e change to seafile user: su seafile -s /bin/bash or, another example: sudo su seafile)

During execution of the upgrade script (upgrade_6.3_7.0.sh) you will get some warnings. Check that these are the same like here. That’s for CE Version OK.

In case you don’t have the certifi python package installed. You will need to install it.

pip install certifi

Link to the official announcement in forum. Could be a help regarding known errors in x64 version.

Once again, thanks to the developers and Seafile Community (specially @DomiM being my rpi guinea pig )

have fun

It was a pleasure, thank you for your work

Hi…having issues here - hope you can help

upgrade went fine - no errors at all. But now when i try to run seafile.sh i get this error

ccnet-server: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.22’ not found (required by /home/piseafile/seafile-server-7.0.3/seafile/lib/libgnutls.so.30)
failed to run "ccnet-server -t

OK then i tried to solve by installing

sudo apt-get install libc6
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
libc6 is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.

So don’t know where to look after that…

Which distro? Share the output:

hostnamectl

El_Topo · July 17, 2019, 10:35pm

Just upgraded from 6.3.4 to 7.0.3 on my RPI 3B+ running Raspbian buster, the upgrade is smooth and I don’t see any problem with the new version.

Thanks for your hardworking!

herve · July 17, 2019, 11:56pm

I upgrade my RPI3+ raspbian buster seafile 6.3.4 to 7.0.3. The upgrade is ok but seahub don’t start anymore.
If i start seahub.sh start-fastcgi i see this message

danSman · July 18, 2019, 2:15am

Did you install it @herve?

I had the same problem. After installing the pkg certifi seahub starts again, but I couldn’t access the interface via my browser. I then switched to nginx and set the proxy to another port - 8001. Since 8000 is now used by Python. I do not normally use Nginx for Seafile at home.

netstat -pan | grep ":8000"
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:8000          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      1778/python2.7

herve · July 18, 2019, 5:54am

I install certifi pkg.
The port 8000 is free in my system
I find the origin of the problem : the module idna is not install
pip install idna and seahub start again

Faky · July 18, 2019, 2:36pm

@jobenvil

hostnamectl returned this

Operating System: Raspbian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie)
Kernel: Linux 4.9.35-v7+
Architecture: arm

jobenvil · July 18, 2019, 3:00pm

Ok, my assumptions were right. You are the first reported victim of having an eol distro… it is possible you update your distro to stretch? If not I have to compile with jessie but this could take time since the summer is comming

Faky · July 18, 2019, 3:05pm

Sure - will check around how to do that
Wonderful thing about Pi is that you set it up and forget about it - but i guess it comes a time that you have to do some additional research.

…
1h later
I have done it. I am now a linux master
For anyone with a similar issue i have followed this tutorial on how to upgrade -
https://www.datenreise.de/en/raspberry-pi-raspbian-update-update-jessie-to-stretch/

So - problem solved. Thank you jobenvil for your help and getting us the latest version of Seafile.

jobenvil · July 18, 2019, 4:33pm

lol, wow, that was really fast!! Thanks for sharing!

langhaarschneider · July 19, 2019, 7:26pm

damn… same problem on my bananian jessie. And there is no bananian stretch.

@jobenvil i took the official tar.gz from github - not the link you sent to me (but thanks for this - had no time to check it earlier.

Can i easily go back to 6.3.4 by running the ./minor-upgrade.sh in the 6.3.4 folder?

jobenvil · July 19, 2019, 7:48pm

yes, exactly. But, you can try to compile by yourself. I will be on holiday in two weeks and I could send you some help.

langhaarschneider · July 19, 2019, 8:40pm

Thanks for your answer. Seafile is running in old version again.

After that i thought maybe it would be nice to compile it by myself. But i fail on installing the python thirdparty things with flup…

jobenvil · July 20, 2019, 8:06am

good decision. That error is beacuse you use python3.4, use python 2.7.

jobenvil · July 20, 2019, 3:06pm

I invested all the morning. Here the Seafile rpi Jessie version. It includes certifi, etc. Check it out.

littlecoce · July 22, 2019, 4:45pm

Upgraded from 6.3.4 without problems.

Thank you for your great work to the devs, @jobenvil and @DomiM

langhaarschneider · August 7, 2019, 6:22pm

Thank you @jobenvil for your great work. Works perfect.
Sorry for the late reply. there were times in my life when i were able to spend more time on this - but now its different…

Hahaha, welcome to the club
