Description The article describes how to fix the collector upgrade error 'Running upgrade.sh Failed 7'.
Scope FortiSIEM collector.
Solution

Problem:

Collector upgrade fails with the error:

 

Running upgrade.sh Failed 7

 

The error gets logged in the log file on the collector:

 

/opt/phoenix/log/collector-upgrade.log

 

Manual execution of the upgrade. The sh script (sh upgrade.sh) on the collector shows the actual error:

 

Invalid Iptype

 

Cause:

The upgrade script (upgrade.sh) is hardcoded to use the default network interface eth0. However, the collector is configured to use a different interface (e.g., bond0, ens192, etc.), resulting in a mismatch and failure during the upgrade process.

 

Solution:

Log in to the collector CLI using SSH and perform the steps: 

 

  1. Back up the configuration file:

 

    cp -a /opt/phoenix/config/phoenix_config.txt /opt/phoenix/config/phoenix_config.txt_orig

 

  1. Update the network interface setting: Edit /opt/phoenix/config/phoenix_config.txt and modify the value of:

 

         selected_network_interface=<actual_interface_name>

   

For example, if the collector uses bond0, change:

 

    selected_network_interface=eth0

   

To:

 

    selected_network_interface=bond0

 

  1. Retry the upgrade: Reinitiate the image install for the collector from the Supervisor GUI.
