Webif problem after jim package upgrades

The point is, it doesn't work. The wget tells you the (403) errors that opkg doesn't.

As for the other:
Code: 
humax# jimsh
Welcome to Jim version 0.73
[2C?
invalid command name "?"
error] . [10Cexit
humax# ./jimsh
Welcome to Jim version 0.74
. ?
invalid command name "?"
[error] . exit
humax#

Some subtle difference, but I've no idea how to drive it.
 
Should we all be removing auto update package until this is resolved?

As Ezra indicated, you can quite easily do

Code: 
humax# opkg remove --force-depends jim
humax# opkg install --force-downgrade http://hummypkg.org.uk/hdrfoxt2/base/jim_0.73-1_mipsel.opk

without needing to use wget or transfer via a PC..

If anyone does still have a broken box, what happens if you just run jimsh from the command line?

Code: 
humax# jimsh
Welcome to Jim version 0.74

(Control-D to exit)

I have just tried the above commands, and still end up with jim 0.74.

Code: 
Humax HD-Fox T2 (humax0) 1.02.29/2.17
 
To return to the menu, type: exit
 
humax0# jimsh
Welcome to Jim version 0.74
.
humax0# opkg remove --force-depends jim

What makes you think that opkg is having any trouble download the packages? There's no evidence for that.
For some reason, the opkg utility is choosing to always go off and download the latest but that's a separate issue.

No, we haven't. There's a problem with the new version of jim on some Humax boxes, that's all we've established so far.
 
Now that 0.74 has been removed from the server, downgrading to 0.73 is simpler.

Code: 
humax# opkg update

You need to do the same for jim-sqlite3

Code: 
humax# opkg remove jim-sqlite3 --force-depends
Removing package jim-sqlite3 from root...
humax# opkg install jim-sqlite3

Anyone who wants to quickly downgrade to jim 0.73 can just run the downgrade_jim diagnostic from the command line:

Code: 
humax# diag downgrade_jim

You need to do an opkg update too (updated my earlier post - the diagnostic approach does this)

That has done it, webif is now working again. Thanks:)
 
It's going to be tricky to work out what is wrong... both of my boxes are fine with 0.74!
 
There the answer I think run opkg update and hopefully 0.74 won't be listed
EDIT
Oops, posted before I saw af123's instruction

I installed 0.74 on my HDR boxes without any problems, and would be happy to try anything on my HD box if it would help to identify the problem.
 
Thanks, you can re-instate Jim 0.74 with the jim74 diagnostic, then try running a couple of commands:

Code: 
humax# diag jim74
..
humax# jimsh
Welcome to Jim version 0.74
. package require sqlite3
1.0
.

. is the Jim prompt so you only need to type package require sqlite3 in there.
Depending on what happens when you try that, I'll post some more things to try.
 
I have tried the commands and here is the output.
Code: 
humax0# diag jim74
Running: jim74

That all looks good then..

Can you try this one?

Code: 
humax# /mod/webif/lib/bin/diskattrs
 
I've got jimsh 0.73 as jimsh and jimsh 0.74 as jimsh74 and been doing some digging down through the files and have got as far as this:
Code: 
humax# jimsh74 /mod/webif/include/toolbar.jim
Segmentation fault
humax# jimsh74 /mod/webif/include/menuicons.jim
Segmentation fault
