Stuck on v1.6.333? One click fixes it
Posted by tomspark
Quick heads-up: if your SparkBox has been sitting on version 1.6.333 for a while (check the top of your dashboard or the Updates page), it's not just you. That version's auto-updater had a bug where it never pulled itself forward — your box was quietly waiting for an update that never arrived. Getting unstuck takes one manual update, either way works: 1) Dashboard → Updates → click Update, or 2) Over SSH: sudo sparkbox upgrade That lands you on the current release, where the auto-updater is fixed — after this one nudge your box updates itself normally again. Note: 'sudo sparkbox update' (without the word upgrade) only refreshes your apps, not SparkBox itself — that's why running it didn't move you off 1.6.333. Sorry for the trouble, and thanks to the folks who reported their boxes weren't moving.
