Problem updating Octoprint from 1.3.12 to 1.4.0

[fridayshoes]

What is the problem?

Trying to update from the Octoprint GUI but I'm getting an error, I think to do with my python version

What did you already try to solve it?

Please always attach complete logs, not snippets.
Preferably attach the systeminfo bundle.

This is your issue. You still run OctoPrint on Python 2,7,16. OctoPrint 1.4.0 requires Python 3.

Upgrade your OctoPrint install to Python 3!

Since OctoPrint version 1.4.0, the codebase has supported installation on both Python 2 and Python 3 environments, as a result of Python 2’s EOL status. However, at the time of writing, only 2.3% of all tracked installs are running on Python 3. The main reason for this is that all current OctoPi releases up until now shipped with OctoPrint installed under Python 2. But there was also the issue of compatibility of the plugins in the plugin repository - there’s no point installing…

OctoPrint tells me it can't run an update due to my Python environment being outdated, what do I do now?

Starting with version 1.3.10, OctoPrint's built-in update mechanism will no longer allow to automatically update OctoPrint or any installed plugins if the underlying Python environment is older than some threshold, to reduce the likelihood of running into update issues in such outdated environments: [image] OctoPrint 1.7.0 and newer expects these minimum versions, which correspond to the environment found on OctoPi 0.16 or newer: Python: 2.7.13 pip: 19.0.1 setuptools: 40.7.1 If your enviro…

What's the correct way to upgrade to python 3 from the installation I have already?

It's written in the Blog link I posted.

Or you make a backup of your settings with the OctoPrint Backup feature and start all over with a new OctoPi/OctoPrint install.

I followed what it said in the blog (I had done this previously before coming to forum for help), but I did it again anyhow with the same result on Step 2.

Please upgrade to an OctoPrint version >= 1.4.0 for Python 3 compatibility

/home/pi/oprint/bin/pip install octoprint==1.4.0 should do that bit and then maybe the update script will be happy to get you to python3. Honestly, I would just create a backup, download backup, reflash the SD card with the latest version and restore the backup during the initial setup wizard of OctoPrint.

Thankyou everyone, I was able to do it using your help and some additional steps

Step 1: sudo apt-get install python-pip

Step 2: /home/pi/oprint/bin/pip install octoprint==1.4.0

Step 3: curl -L https://get.octoprint.org/py3/upgrade.py --output upgrade.py

Step 4: python3 upgrade.py
