Grafana Installation

I always kept my Grafana on raspberry up to date but now i am stock on this.
I use the commands that is given on the download site for Ubuntu and Debian(ARMv6)
When it is downloaded and will try to unpack it gives me this error.:

$ sudo dpkg -i grafana-rpi_9.2.0_armhf.deb
(Database wordt ingelezen … 60023 bestanden en mappen momenteel geïnstalleerd.)
Uitpakken van grafana-rpi_9.2.0_armhf.deb wordt voorbereid…

dpkg-deb: fout: subproces plakken werd gedood door signaal (Gebroken pijp)

what version are you upgrading from and is your grafana service stopped while upgrading?

5

I was upgrading from version 9.1.5 and i stop my grafana before update

6

one sure way to see if this new version is problematic in rpi, it to spin up a new 9.2.0 version of grafana separate than you current one and see if it works?

7

I removed grafana compleet and did a new install from from APT repository.
But when i would install grafane i get the same error…

8

so that probably means the new version grafana-rpi_9.2.0_armhf.deb has issues. Can you try the latest 9.2.1 and see if there is an issue there as well?

Yes i did try V9.2.0 and V9.2.1 both give me this error.
I now do a clean install debian and install .deb package v9.1.5
No problem
Update from V9.2.0 give me this error.
Also update from V9.2.1 same error
Update to V9.1.8 everything is oke.
:frowning_face:
It starts with v9.2.0 i think

I would open an issue in

I solved the problem.
First i backup my grafana.ini and grafana.db
Then i removed grafana.
…
sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove grafana
…

To install the latest OSS release:

sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https
sudo apt-get install -y software-properties-common wget
sudo wget -q -O /usr/share/keyrings/grafana.key https://packages.grafana.com/gpg.key
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/grafana.key] https://packages.grafana.com/oss/deb stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grafana.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grafana

Configure the Grafana server to start at boot:

sudo systemctl enable grafana-server.service

Copy back .ini and .db

sudo systemctl start grafana-server
sudo systemctl status grafana-server

It runs like a charm :grinning:
