Help! "Upload failed: Possible causes are: not enough space or connection error"

[michael.saw]

Hi,

Anyone seen this error before:

"Upload failed: Possible causes are: not enough space or connection error"

What are the steps to resolve this issue?

Is there any kb or doc link on this?

What are you trying to do? If it's an upgrade to 7.7, read this. But, before you upgrade to 7.7, read this.

We find that there is only Boot0 in MX8, after using a "dir" and "show system" command...

What are the boot commands that was used?

Is the below okie?

boot> change

BOOT Index: 0
BOOT TYPE: n
DEVICE: emac1
FILENAME: <image>
HOST IP: 192.168.1.111
LOCAL IP: 192.168.1.100
GATEWAY IP: 192.168.1.100
IP MASK: 255.255.255.0
FLAGS: 00000000
OPTIONS: run=nos

I had a certain amount of success with this with my tftp server set to 192.168.1.63 and the dhcp option is set to off.

at the boot prompt;

change

BOOT TYPE:    [c]> n
DEVICE:       [boot0]> emac1
FILENAME:     [default]> MX080202.002
HOST IP:      [192.168.1.63]>
LOCAL IP:     [192.168.1.65]>
GATEWAY IP:   [192.168.1.1]>
IP MASK:      [255.255.255.0]>
FLAGS:        [0x00000000]>
OPTIONS:      [run=nos]>


    BOOT Index:   0
    BOOT TYPE:    n
    DEVICE:       emac1
    FILENAME:     MX080202.002
    HOST IP:      192.168.1.63
    LOCAL IP:     192.168.1.65
    GATEWAY IP:   192.168.1.1
    IP MASK:      255.255.255.0
    FLAGS:        00000000
    OPTIONS:      run=nos

boot>

Then issued the reset command forcing a reboot and a request to the tftp server.

Thx

The MX-8 box behaved differently, however this worked for me.

Booted the box using the new code;

boot> change


BOOT TYPE:    [c]> n
DEVICE:       [boot0:]> emac1
FILENAME:     [default]> MX080202.008
HOST IP:      [0.0.0.0]> 192.168.1.63
LOCAL IP:     [0.0.0.0]> 192.168.1.71
GATEWAY IP:   [0.0.0.0]> 192.168.1.1
IP MASK:      [0.0.0.0]> 255.255.255.0
FLAGS:        [0x00000000]>
OPTIONS:      [run=nos;root=md0a]>

The box then starts up but has two boot partions boot0 and boot1.both running older code.

I then tried to load the new code over the top of the redundant partion, boot0 which of course failed due to being to large.

copy tftp://192.168.1.5/MX080202.008 boot0:MX080202.008

However the boot0 partition then was no longer available.

I copied the new code to the remaining partion boot1

copy tftp://192.168.1.5/MX080202.008 boot1:MX080202.008

And this worked ok...
