THIS IS AN AUTOMATED MESSAGE, DO NOT REPLY.

A new Flyspray task has been opened.  Details are below. 

User who did this - Hartmut Wahl (frufo) 

Attached to Project - OpenWrt/LEDE Project
Summary - CPE510/520 sysupgrade-image on server/website seems to be incorrect/not functional
Task Type - Bug Report
Category - Website
Status - Unconfirmed
Assigned To - 
Operating System - All
Severity - Low
Priority - Very Low
Reported Version - openwrt-19.07
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - Dear openwrt Team,

I am unsure whether it is a bug in the web managment or in the base/build system/buils management. However, while the linked factory images for the cpe510/520 device on the device website:

https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/cpe510
 
seem to be valid images (size 4MB), there seems to be something wrong with the linked sysupgrade images, e.g:

http://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/19.07.3/targets/ar71xx/generic/openwrt-19.07.3-ar71xx-generic-cpe510-520-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

they are almost 8MB in size and seem to be rather ELF-binaries than flash-images or am I mistaken? 

Flashing in my case from: LEDE Reboot 17.01.4

consequently fails with the error message:

The uploaded image file does not contain a supported format. Make sure that you choose the generic image format for your platform.

I did not dare to try the factory-image instead as according to posts in the forum this is not advisable (risk of bricking the device).

Thank you very much
   Frufo
