Need some help in upgrading Netbox v.2.6.2 to latest version.

[Alfie Chen]

The Netbox is version 2.6.2, installed in a Centos7. The Netbox suggested that I should upgrade the version to v2.11. 

I've upgrade the python to v3.7, and made some change in ./upgrade.sh. It seems like I've successfully upgrade to v2.11, but it doesn't. 

When I tried to run - systemctl restart netbox netbox-rq, it gave me below error.

netbox.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=217/USER

And when I ran, python3 manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000 --insecure, it gave me below:

File "manage.py", line 8, in <module> from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'django'

Wondering what is the correct sequence to upgrade it to latest version. 

Thank you in advance.

This usually indicates that NetBox is being run outside of its Python virtual environment. See the ExecStart line in the reference service configuration file here for an example. The binary being executed should be located within the venv directory of your installation path.

Hope that helps!

Thank you Jeremy for your quick reply.

Finally got it work by following below method.

Install a 2.11.0 in fresh centos 8, set up a python3.7 environment and then migrate the database over, then upgrade to 3.0.0

Thank you all.
