After update Virtualbox machine doesn't start from script (or ssh shell).. The error:

(C) 2008-2021 Oracle Corporation
All rights reserved.

VBoxHeadless: ERROR: failed to create the VirtualBoxClient object!
VBoxHeadless: error: Code NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED (0x80040154) - Class not registered (extended info not available)
Most likely, the VirtualBox COM server is not running or failed to start.

Tried to reinstall vbox - it didn't help.

I'm sorry to hear this
Issues with Vbox currently require uninstalling Vbox before updating to prevent some bugs. According to the current situation, I regret to tell you that if you want to continue using Vbox, you can only choose to reinstall TOS.

It works if I start vm with web-interface. Only script and ssh run not working. So, if it will be fixed in the future, i'll better wait... Tired of reinstalling. =)

Assuming it didn't get addressed in this update, but in case it did, I still can't update permissions for any of my 3 usbshares :(

Says it was successful, but if I reopen the permissions window they're back to deny.

The USB permission issue has not been resolved, you need to wait for a while.

Hi, successfully updated to TOS 5, pretty impressed with the new functionality, mainly Surveillance Center ( or what it's called), as I was waiting for ages for something like that.

For the upgrade process, the message "This will delete all your data" made me nervous, but I started without the HDDs and it all seemed to just click.

For the process:
-MariaDb, imported a logical backup, had to recreate the users.
-Transmission, all went fine and dandy, more or less required some detective work to see were the torrents were stored, struggled for 2 days with no permissions problem, it turned out you need to provide the MEDIA group access to your download folders (it seems strange to me why transmission user is in Media group).
*Note: the path is changing, but fortunately /mnt/mt0 ?? is same length with /Volume1 so no painfull manual editing of path length, simply used notepad to batch edit all my torrents resume files.

Everything else was simply reinstalled and configured from scratch.

A little maintenance was necessary, deleting old users via SSH (only way) but It went pretty flawless.

It's not an easy process though, I don't see an average user doing it .

It seems TOS5 is becoming more or less mature, do you plan on releasing a safe upgrade path from 4.2 to 5.0 that does not require manual installation ?

Since the root file system, storage path, application installation location, and startup method of TOS 5.0 are different from those of the previous version, thus it is not possible to update directly from TOS 4.2.
