Firt of all, it's a demo system, not a production one, I was just testing the upgrade proc, that as usual, doesn't work, either on a freaking clean system.
Sorry if sounds rude, but that happens to me also, when upgrading from previous LTS to 4.5, and it's very frustating folling the instructions and get stuck.

Doesn't matter, its a testing bed. I just want to see what problems would I have upgrading a real server.

What's the point of doing that? ... I know that on a new mr5.5.2 everything works, I have another VM with it, this is a test of upgrading a mr4.5.3 to mr5.5.2

support at vm-pre-sipwise:~$ cat /etc/ngcp_version
mr4.5.3

Its a clean direct mr4.5.3 install, with no upgrades done so far.

Imposible, system got in an unstable state:

support at vm-pre-sipwise:~$ ngcpcfg --validate check
-bash: ngcpcfg: command not found

If I rollback to a snapshot before the upgrade try:

support at vm-pre-sipwise:~$ ngcpcfg --validate check
support at vm-pre-sipwise:~$

As espected

On a 4.5.3, that file doesn't exits ..

less /usr/share/ngcp-cfg-schema/validate/constants.yml
/usr/share/ngcp-cfg-schema/validate/constants.yml: No such file or directory

> Also 'ngcp-status' might share some auto-detected issues with you.

At this point it doesn't make any sense either ... I'll try a new clean 4.5.3, then just after install it ... will try to do an upgrade to mr5.5.2 and see what happens.
I hope not having to use and API dump and API restore of all the information to be able to upgrade.
