LWAP can't write image to flash

Sven Lindeke — Mon, 05 Jul 2021 06:59:16 GMT

Hello.

After upgrade to new controller version 7.5 on my 5508, I have two access points that won't connect to controller anymore.

Before the upgrade, I pre-downloaded the new images to all access points and that worked well.

I now connected to one of the two access points through console and got the following error messages in log:

Unable to create temp dir "flash:/update"

Download image failed, notify controller!!! From:7.4.110.0 to 0.0.0.0, FailureCode:7

When I try to download an image manually, I get the same error.

I can't even "dir" the flash anymore.

Anyone an idea?

Regards,

Sven Lindeke

That doesn't work.

When using the command "dir flash:/" or "dir flash", I get error message

unable to stat flash://: invalid argument
