Hi, I'm trying to upgrade a NixOS install. After a failed nixos-rebuild some time ago I now get this error when doing "nix-channel --update":
current Nix store schema is version 7, but I only support 6 Looking at IRC logs found a tip about finding a newer nix. I located nix 1.5.1 in the store and called that. Now I have brand new nixexprs but I cannot get nixos-rebuild working. $ sudo nixos-rebuild ... error: evaluation aborted with the following error message: `This version of Nixpkgs requires Nix >= 1.2, please upgrade!' I put nix 1.5.1 in front of PATH and tried again: $ sudo nixos-rebuild switch building Nix... error: cannot start worker (unexpected end-of-file) (use `--show-trace' to show detailed location inform Still not working. Any tips? The "cannot start worker" error has been reported on the ML before, but it was not resolved. A piece of info requested was "set | grep ^NIX", so here it is: NIXPKGS_CONFIG=/etc/nix/nixpkgs-config.nix NIX_CONF_DIR=/etc/nix NIX_OTHER_STORES='/var/run/nix/remote-stores/*/nix' NIX_PATH=/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos:nixpkgs=/etc/nixos/nixpkgs:nixos=/etc/nixos/nixos:nixos-config=/etc/nixos/configuration.nix:services=/etc/nixos/services NIX_PROFILES='/run/current-system/sw /nix/var/nix/profiles/default /home/bfo/.nix-profile' NIX_REMOTE=daemon NIX_USER_PROFILE_DIR=/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/bfo Best regards, Bjørn Forsman _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
