Problems updating from vv5.8.0 to v5.9.0

[permaMonk]

Describe The Bug

I've tried to update it twice. The installation runs through without any problems. After restarting Homebridge the version remains at v5.8.0. A complete server restart doesn't help either.

Hi @permaMonk, closing as i assume this was the way you got round this?

Nope, unfortunately the problem remains.

Changes
node v24.11.0
npm v11.6.1.

can you try clicking on the “Homebridge UI” text on the home screen widget which should open the manage version screen for the UI.
then in the version list at the bottom, choose the new version from there and try to install this way.

After 2 days with try and error it works again. The update drives trough.

(Don´t ask my how - I´ve tried so many things ...)
