Omada Controller 5.3.1
Omada Controller 5.3.1
2022-06-10 14:49:21
Model: EAP225-Outdoor  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 5.0.9

I've just upgraded my Omada Controller ... to 5.3.1 running on a windows 10 pc

 

Is there an easy way to go back?

 

It doesn't automatically restart after a power outage, it's just crashed for no apparent reason which meant I had to manually restart it again and the, for example - number of clients reported on the Device doesn't tally with the numbers reported per Client ???

 

We get a lot of power outages here so automatic restart is important.

 

Who decided to get rid of the "omada-start.jar" ???

 

Help!

lok for start.bat in C:\Users\xxx\Omada Controller\bin

 

or run it as a service with NSSM

ok, then you have to uninstall controller, install old controller and do a restore of backup you took before you upgrade.

 

maybe you get managed by other, on device then you have to adopt device manually, then do a second restore after device is adopted.

 

anyhow backup is the most important when you work with Omada. before and after you do something.

Interesting reply, I got to paragraph 3 and then stopped devil

 

Actually it was just after midnight and I'd had a few when I upgraded...

 

It's working reasonably ok again now BUT why didn't they just stick with using "\Omada Controller\lib\omada-start.jar"

Instead of changing it to "\Omada Controller\lib\local-starter-5.3.1.jar" ???

 

Then my start up would have continued to work as it used to.

 

 

All very sound advice from you... I think the big problem is that all sorts are using this product - IT pro's to DIY'rs like me - so how they address or solve all the issues that that causes... who knows - perhaps they could try with dumbing it all down to idiot level and then providing the further details available here option for IT Pro's...
