The instructions in the first post of this thread were changed some time ago to remove the need to checkout the "dev" branch as all the BBAI changes have been merged into the master branch now. So try that instead.

Okay, I fixed it and a couple of other public Kiwis that were stuck running v1.2xx versions. In all cases they had filesystem corruption of the source files that prevented any further updates. Setting those files aside and doing a fresh git clone was all it took to get running again. There are a variety of causes of filesystem problems including improper shutdown, power failure, etc.

These v1.2xx versions were before v1.287 where there was a software problem causing further updates to fail. So it is unrelated to that issue.

Hi Peter,

We had an update a while back that broke the update process and required manual intervention to get going again.

Can your Kiwi be accessed from the Internet? (doesn't necessarily mean it's a public Kiwi, just that port 8073 is open to the Internet). If so, please email the ip address or URL to support@kiwisdr.com and I'll fix it.

Regards,
John

Okay. Well unfortunately it seems your filesystem has become corrupted. You'll need to restore using the micro sd card shipped with the unit. Or if you're comfortable with Linux commands you could move the source directory aside and do a fresh git checkout. Something like this:

cd
mv Beagle_SDR_GPS Beagle_SDR_GPS.bad
git clone https://github.com/jks-prv/Beagle_SDR_GPS.git
cdp
mi
ku

Okay, this change is in today's v1.344 update and seems to work. Thanks Glenn for spotting this.
