Broke Server after Driver Updates- Urgent

The lastest round of driver updates broke my server.  GenericIR is no longer listed, Anthem is gone.... Appletv is gone.  They show up under the drivers directory but are not showing up as installed.  

What the hell

The Update uninstalled them and reinstalling them doesn't bring them back.

Tried restoring a database update from earlier in the week...didn't bring back the drivers.

I put it back to the current backup so I would not delete the recently updated macros.

The non updated drivers remained installed and are working.

I do have a complete copy of the myServer directory that was updated just prior to the Driver update.  Hopefully this will save me having to rebuild the driver configs...

 

Here is the log..

We believe you updated to the brand new 6.8 drivers, without first updating to the 6.8 myServer.

Rules: A 6.7 server won't play nice with 6.8 drivers.
A 6.8 server will play nice with 6.7 or 6.8 drivers.
We are upgrading all drivers to 6.8, but that takes some time.

You might notice a tad snappier webserver performance with 6.8. There are also some new drivers that require 6.8 that we will showcase in a bit.

We think you should be working now...let us know!!

Not sure what I missed... but Double Thank you for the fix!

I would have missed this as well. Typically when a driver update is available it is highlighted orange in the system software updater. This myServer update remains white and doesn't draw attention to the fact that there is a new version.

All of the other driver updates still show up as gold for me. I assume it's just a glitch.

To be clear could you please confirm that updating to 6.8 resolved your driver problem? I don't want to update until I have verification that everything is stable.

EDIT: I lied. The 6.8 myserver update isn't highlighted, as well as the weather applet and the androidtv driver.

That makes sense...I installed the highlighted items as I usually do (thus missing the server)..... this time something went sideways.

Yes, it is working fine now. I was freaking out earlier due to the family not able to use the Home Theater for Friday night movies.
