Hi to all,

I am running IObroker windows (installer 23.11.2019) and I am trying to update JS-controller from 2.1.0 to 2.2.9, but I cant

I am running the cmd.exe with admin rights, then I stop iobroker and when I run :iobroker update or iobroker upgrade self I have this error : error. please start the iobroker command line with the correct windows start menu shortcut. aborting

I dont know what I am doing wrong, can some one help me ?

Hi Tyson,

actually I cannot help you, but I am facing the same Problem with Windows 10.

Update:
I did exactly what it told me to do: I started the iobroker commandline from the startmenu.
Than I followed the line:

• iobroker stop
• iobroker update
• iobroker upgrade self
• iobroker start

That worked for me.

For you this sintax works : iobroker update? or iobroker upgrade?
when I am using C:\iobroker\Smarthome>iobroker upgrade self ----> I get an error msg :
Please start the iobroker commandline with the correct windows start menu shortcut. Aborting....

For my understandin is that the syntax "iobroker upgrade self" is not correct or something is missing..

Regards
