BigIP Report Old

Hi guys,

Strange behavior when trying to upgrade from 5.2.0 to 5.3.1. I got this error when running the script :

"Exception setting "OutputEncoding": "The handle is invalid". Then it crashes.

I updated the conf file, I also replaced all the files in the web server root folder...

I used to get this error in 5.2.0 but it never stopped the script. Now the version 5.2.0 isn't running anymore.

I don't get it !

Any help ?

EDIT : it seems that the script isn't crashing. just the output stops after the error (I've all the logs in the logfile).

Now when browsing I have ("The following json files did not load:

Failed object:json/preferences.json

Status code: 404

Reason: Not Found")

The report is empty.

 I checked all the json files in the root folder, it seems that the report gathered correctly all the infos on the F5. Unfortunatly no preferences.json file ! This is obsviously why the web server can't load it.

FINAL NOTE : I successfully repared the server by creating preferences.json with an empty "[ ]" content.

It now solved ! Hope this will help somebody

Br,
