then set your update release, and launch event to do the upgrade :

# config setprop unifi VersionToInstall 5.6.42
# signal-event smeserver-unifi-install

then finally update to desired version

# config setprop unifi VersionToInstall 5.10.25
# signal-event smeserver-unifi-install

Configuration

here are the available configurations:

  • access : default is local, you can set it to public to allow access from the outside network

You might get the following warining in logs for mongodb

WARNING: soft rlimits too low. rlimits set to 1024 processes, 4096 files. Number of processes should be at least 2048 : 0.5 times number of files

the way to fix

1sed -i s/1024/2048/ /etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf
