Agent 2.0 upgrade

Community Help With My Project
1

Hello, sorry ahead of time for the dumb question. How do I upgrade my RaspberryPis to the Pi agent 2.0?

2

on the dashboard go to : add new > device/widget > raspberry pi > and type the command in the ssh terminal.

3

Ok, is it best to start over with a new SD card image or can you use one thatā€™s already connected to Cayenne?

4

it is recommended to start on new sd-card.

5

After doing this i still get the old agent.

Made a fresh stretch light sdcard and added it as a new device and it still ends up with the old agent any ideas?

6

what do you mean with old agent?

7

When i log on to the cayenne website after newly adding my pi, i still get the popup that its using the legacy version and when i check it on the webpage it still sais its using Agent Version
1.0.0.20838

8

And not even run apt-get update/upgrade before Cayenne install, because then it will crash with the newer Python version.

Hello, is the DS18B20 still supported automatically with the 2.0 agent?

10

yes it should be. have a look at this Cayenne Docs

11

Ok, havenā€™t been able to get it to work. Is the new RaspberryPi 3 B+ supported?

12

yes. what is problem you are facing.

13

Just trying to add the ds18b20 but it doesnā€™t come up after connecting to the GPIO and booting.

14

hold on, there seems to be some bug with agent 2.0. will notify once it is solved.

15

Need help, no success on agent 2.0 install. Tried run Terminal/ssh commands but after more than 20 hours the process is stuck yet. Itā€™s not my first try, but this time Iā€™ve waited more. Android app says only ā€œwaiting for board to connectā€.

Fresh SD card is out of question.

Hi @aicraga, Iā€™m sorry you are having problems upgrading the Pi with a new agent.

10 minutes should be more than enough to install/add a new pi. Did you try adding upgrading from the web dashboard as well, or only through android? If not, I would strongly suggest adding the pi through the web dashboard.

17

Tried only from web dashboard, just saw that status on Android as another support information.

18

What version of raspbian do you have installed in that device?

19

It is a Pi3 with ā€œRaspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)ā€ 4.14.34-v7+ #1110 SMP

20

Ok, Iā€™ll refer this to one of our engineers and see if he can help you troubleshoot.

I assume you donā€™t want to use a fresh card because you have other stuff running on that pi, correct? Can you still, for test only, use a new formatted SD card, fresh install raspbian and add it to Cayenne and see if it connects correctly?
