Nitrokey Start Update Went Badly - Critical error occurred, exiting now #48
Comments
Ok, this looks weird, the update makes the impression it's finished, but the serial number is missing...

Hi @spamtree, I am afraid the device was lost during the update process. Please contact us at According to the log, the bootloader was downloaded and executed, however the update application could not connect to finish the process, probably due to some other service trying to access and locking the smart card interface. Unfortunately removing power at this state makes the device unusable. @daringer What we can do at this stage is to try closing all potential services for the time of the update. The |
Thanks for the explanation and I understand what happened now. Well the problem is the user (me). When I installed "nitropy" it was going to pull in a lot development stuff that I already have in a docker container. I do all my development these days in a docker container. I decided to do the upgrade from the docker container because I have all the packages already installed in the docker container. Anyway it was dumb idea to try and the process totally bricked the nitro start. The docker container was setup for usb devices correctly but something clearly went wrong. I guess you should warn other users not to use a docker container. I will take the lose. I want to order a nitrokey pro anyway. Thanks for the rapid support! |
I see. Docker container does not refresh the available devices, hence when the Nitrokey Start switched to bootloader it cannot be found. It might have worked, if the update would be executed once again. Good idea to mention that in the documentation! Tasks:

Thanks folks!
Looks like I am back in action. This was fun! Does everything look okay? Anything else I need to check or do? For anyone that finds this post - I used arch linux and the openocd-git from the arch linux aur. The openocd version in the arch linux official repository did not work. None of the recommended openocd versions on the nitrokey firmware update page worked. Hope this helps someone. |
I will close this issue. |
Looks good! I am glad you get it back to life. I will reopen ticket since there are tasks to be done (documentation side). |
Tasks moved to #51. Closing. |

See log for details. Followed directions on website for updating firmware and now the nitrokey start is not found at all.
Thanks for any help.
