Unable to update my emonSD-30Oct18

[qris (Chris Wilson)]

I bought my emonPi about 18 months ago. Apparently it has emonSD-30Oct18, even though I have updated it quite a few times since I bought it.

I just tried again, and it seems that I’m locked out of updates now:

Starting update via service-runner-update.sh (v2.0) >
- emonSD version: emonSD-30Oct18
ERROR: emonSD base image old or undefined...update will not continue
See latest verson: https://github.com/openenergymonitor/emonpi/wiki/emonSD-pre-built-SD-card-Download-&-Change-Log
Stopping update

But the referenced page says that this version is still “elidible for updates” (sic). So what’s wrong?

Perhaps given that at least one user has bricked their Pi by upgrading, it’s a good thing?

Thanks Brian, I wasn’t aware of that. I have updated the list of releases to correctly indicate which versions are no longer supported.
