HaruCode I'm back. don't know what was that. did you see the explanation of my problem at least?
dr|z3d HaruCode: what browser are you using, and how does the inability to browse eepsites display in the browser?
HaruCode firefox, curl, whatever I use it doesn't work. the proxy is fuctioning, i.e. - it returns the "site unreachable" error page
dr|z3d how's your computer's clock looking right now? synced?
HaruCode just synced them. 4 seconds offset. there are no errors in logs. it says an update is ready, but I'm a bit afraid of restarting the router
dr|z3d 4 seconds offset isn't great, but shouldn't impact browsing. what version are you running there?
HaruCode 0.9.48-0
dr|z3d that's old, super old. update your router and then bounce back here.
dr|z3d you should try and update to the current version when it's available.
HaruCode not that I'm easily able to. it's in-memory FreeBSD because of... things... with my hard drive
dr|z3d well, 0.9.54 is current right now, so you're probably a year or two behind the curve. plenty has changed.
HaruCode I'll try. if I'm not back soon, consider it failed
dr|z3d good luck!
HaruCode it works now, version 1.8.0-0. to think it'll take a whole day to find an update... but I have another question then: where is the update stored, so I could save it on a persistent storage?
RN it should be in the snark downloads location
HaruCode found it, thanks
HaruCode how do I install it manually or point the router to it in the future?
RN you drop in in the I2P folder and it should see it at startup
HaruCode disconnected again... in case messages weren't delivered: I found the update file. how do I install it manually or point the router to it in the future?
RN you drop in in the I2P folder and it should see it at startup
dr|z3d update file in ~/i2p/ or .i2p/ is fine.
dr|z3d and no, you're good.
dr|z3d 1.8-0 is current.
dr|z3d in future, once the update's downloaded, it'll tell you in the sidebar and a restart of the router will deploy it. nothing else to do.
dr|z3d that is, assuming you have your update set to auto-download on /configupdate
dr|z3d you can also set to notify only, and you'll get an update button in the sidebar when an update is available. same rules apply, hit that button and, once downloaded, a restart of the router will deploy it.
HaruCode I figured it's curent. but when I'll have to reboot, I'll have an old version again, and waiting for 24 hours to get the new version is a bit long, so I want to save the archive and apply it manually
HaruCode if the file in config dir is enough - good
dr|z3d if you're manually deploying, you may need to rename .su3 to .zip
dr|z3d there's also geti2p.net/en/download .. you can grab the .zip version linked at the bottom of the page.
dr|z3d you could also copy ~/i2p/ somewhere persistent before you reboot and then copy it back to ram afterwards.
dr|z3d (or equivalent app location)
HaruCode that's what I intend to do. already copied it
dr|z3d oh, you said BSD, so ~/i2p/ or wherever it's installed. the app dir.
dr|z3d then you should be good.
dr|z3d you'll also want to copy ~/.i2p/ probably.
HaruCode on BSD it's in two places: ~/i2p and ~/.i2p
HaruCode yeah the configs, the key
dr|z3d right, so both of those folders you'd want to backup and restore if they're non-persistent.
dr|z3d anyways, how's the website browsing now? fixed?
HaruCode postman works, at least. that's all I needed.
dr|z3d great.
HaruCode ok, it works. thanks everyone.
HaruCode heh. using irc feels a bit nostalgic
dr|z3d stick around, you might learn more :)
dr|z3d and feel free to join us in #saltr if you want somewhere a little looser, conversation-wise. this channel's most for development discussions, and occasionally support issues. :)
