Deploy SecuBox AppStore Updates

Quick Deploy (All Packages)

# 1. Rebuild all affected packages
cd /home/reepost/CyberMindStudio/_files/secubox-openwrt
./secubox-tools/local-build.sh secubox-core luci-app-secubox-admin

# 2. Copy packages to router
scp bin/packages/x86_64/secubox/secubox-core_*.ipk \
    bin/packages/x86_64/secubox/luci-app-secubox-admin_*.ipk \
    root@192.168.8.191:/tmp/

# 3. Install on router
ssh root@192.168.8.191 << 'ENDSSH'
# Install packages (force-reinstall to update)
opkg install --force-reinstall /tmp/secubox-core_*.ipk
opkg install --force-reinstall /tmp/luci-app-secubox-admin_*.ipk

# Restart RPCD to reload ACLs
/etc/init.d/rpcd restart

# Verify ACL file is in place
ls -l /usr/share/rpcd/acl.d/luci-app-secubox-admin.json

echo "Installation complete!"
ENDSSH

# 4. Clear browser cache and reload
# - Press Ctrl+Shift+R in browser
# - Or clear cache manually in browser settings

Verify Installation

On the router:

# Check installed versions
opkg list-installed | grep secubox

# Verify ACL file contents
cat /usr/share/rpcd/acl.d/luci-app-secubox-admin.json

# Test RPC methods directly
ubus -S call luci.secubox get_catalog_sources
ubus -S call luci.secubox check_updates

Troubleshooting

Getting "No related RPC reply" errors?

This means the backend (secubox-core) hasn't been deployed yet with the new RPCD methods.

Solution: Deploy BOTH packages:

./deploy-to-router.sh

With v1.0.0-5, pages will load gracefully with empty data until backend is deployed.

What you'll see:

• Catalog Sources page: "No sources configured"
• Updates page: "All applications are up to date"
• Apps page: Works normally (uses existing RPC methods)

After deploying secubox-core, these pages will populate with real data.

Still Getting "Access Denied"?

1. Verify ACL file was installed:

   ssh root@192.168.8.191 "cat /usr/share/rpcd/acl.d/luci-app-secubox-admin.json | grep get_catalog_sources"
   

   Should show the method name in the file.

2. Check RPCD is running:

   ssh root@192.168.8.191 "ps | grep rpcd"
   

3. Restart RPCD:

   ssh root@192.168.8.191 "/etc/init.d/rpcd restart"
   

4. Check for ACL conflicts:

   ssh root@192.168.8.191 "grep -r 'luci.secubox' /usr/share/rpcd/acl.d/"
   

5. Clear browser cache completely:

   • Close all browser windows
   • Clear cache and cookies for router IP
   • Reopen browser

Test Individual Methods

# On router, test each method:
ubus -S call luci.secubox get_catalog_sources
ubus -S call luci.secubox check_updates
ubus -S call luci.secubox get_app_versions '{"app_id":"luci-app-auth-guardian"}'
ubus -S call luci.secubox get_changelog '{"app_id":"luci-app-auth-guardian"}'
ubus -S call luci.secubox get_widget_data '{"app_id":"luci-app-auth-guardian"}'

If these work via ubus but not in browser, it's a browser cache issue.
