I get an error when attempting to upgrade.
Error 1
can not edit /usr/local/bin
Permission denied when performing a hamclock upgrade
This is due to file permissons on the /usr/local/bin directory
You can fix this permanently by using a small program called Putty
After launching putty you can enter the ip address of your hamclock - you can find the ip address from just under your callsign - be patient it will appear given time!
PUTTY Connection settings (Use your Local IP!!)
Once connected it will ask you for a username and password:
These are both set to hamclock (all lower case and NOT caps)
Once connected you can issue this command to change the permissions on /usr/local/bin
sudo chown -R hamclock:hamclock /usr/local/bin
To check that this has changed the permisssions correctly you can issue this command:
ls -ld /usr/local/bin
Once you are sure the changes have taken effect then you can disconnect putty by closing its window.
You can now perform your upgrade!
Apologies this was just a simple oversight on my part and has been corrected as of 18-01-2026
