Will there be problems with going to v12.2 or is it enough to start the update?

I have a cron
0 1 * * * /home/user/dashman/dashman update -y >> /home/user/log.log 2>&1
But update didn't work in the cron. How to use autoupdate in the cron? Manually start dashman update -y works fine. Thank you

After updating 12.2.2 the status in the wallet: ENABLED
In dashman all green, only:
masternode started: NO

What could it be?

dashman needed updating to match the new 12.2.2 output.

until I release the next update-required version, do
Code:
dashman sync
to pull in the fix.

note: you can combine sync with a command like this:
Code:
dashman sync status
or
Code:
dashman sync update -y

Is there something wrong? It's fresh git instalation.

You need to install sentinel if you're running a masternode. A piece of documentation I keep meaning to add.

Code:
./dashman install sentinel
will fix you right up.

I'll make a note to check for sentinel on an enabled masternode before trying the tests.

Let me know if this doesn't fix things!

You need to find and install the package that contains `virtualenv`

what platform are you on?

"python-virtualenv is already the newest version." doesn't that mean that I alredy have virtualenv ?
I've tried 3 platforms debian9, debian8, ubuntu 16.04 no one was succesfull, but I'm not sure yet, problems could slightly differ.

Possibly a python/python3 problem, eh @moocowmoo

I've had this problem before and I forget how I solved it... Try pip install virtualenv rather than python-virtualenv. No guarantee that does it though.

unary operator expected
I am getting that error today. Here is my fix:

Edit the file lib/dashman_functions.sh
look for the line:
if [ -e $INSTALL_DIR/sentinel ]; then

and just before it, add (use the correct directory of course):
INSTALL_DIR=/home/dash/.dashcore

This will manually force the script to find the correct directory. The error is gone! dashman version 0.1.27 (0.1.27-dirty)

DASHMAN is no longer supported, do not use it.
It has recently been forked, do not trust any DASHMAN forks!
For Evo, release December 2020, there will be dash-masternode-deploy which will be similar to dashman, but maintained by DCG, use that one.
In the meantime, use my guide for setting up pre-Evo MN under guides in this forum.
