I did not manually do anything on /opt/sandbox, however boot/ is not there
as you can see,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] qtp-sandbox]# ls -hal /opt/qtp-sandbox/
total 68K
drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 4.0K Nov 7 14:20 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4.0K Nov 1 09:02 ..

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Nov 7 14:19 tmp
drwxr-xr-x 30 root root 4.0K Nov 1 09:24 var
I think I will remove it as you suggested.

Hello shubes,
just wanted to let you know the following message I am now geting during
upgrade. In my my previous upgrade I answered yes when prompted to
remove
the sandbox.
/opt/qtp-sandbox exists, and is apparently not a sandbox
Please use a different value for SANDBOX and try again
Does /opt/qtp-sandbox/boot/.qtp-sandbox exist? The existence of this
hidden
file is how the scripts (are supposed to) tell if /opt/qtp-sandbox is a
sandbox or not. If the file exists, then this message is a bug. If it
doesn't exist (and never did), this is a bug too. If you somehow removed
the
(apparently empty, but it's not) boot/ directory from the sandbox, that
would cause this error.
If the rest of your sandbox is safely intact, you could
# mkdir -p /opt/qtp-sandbox/boot
# touch /opt/qtp-sandbox/boot/.qtp-sandbox
to restore the directory and file.
The safest bet would be to
# rm -rf /opt/qtp-sandbox
and let newmodel recreate it. If you still get this message, then there's
a bug.
BTW, I did find and fix (just now) a bug with this. If you happen to
change
the sandbox name to something other than qtp-sandbox, it would fail with
the
message you're getting. It doesn't appear that you've changed this value
though.
Let me know what your situation is.
