Error reporting initial configuration when provisioning device about open-balena HOT 5 OPEN

Hi,

This errors comes from the fact that the latest OS's use the V3 endpoint to report their status. The latest release of open-balena, however, doesn't support this endpoint. The latest release of the open-balena-api does.

I've created a PR #149, which fixes this issue. I'm awaiting approval. This will add support for the V3 endpoint and thus support the latest and greatest BalenaOS.

For now, I'd suggest using an older BalenaOS version, which can be downloaded using the 'balena os download' command, like v2.88.

Thanks, @bartversluijs !

Is there somewhere I could have found that information that I missed? I know I've seen similar problems across github / the forums with open-balena being out of date compared to a new CLI version or OS version, but I'm not sure how you would know that from the docs, unless I missed it.

Additionally, it looks like balena os download is not supported by open-balena,

Note: Currently this command only works with balenaCloud, not openBalena.
  If using openBalena, please download the OS from: https://www.balena.io/os/

Nor do I see any image archives for older versions

There's no way at the moment you could've known that the latest BalenaOS doesn't work with openbalena. The only way to know is try it. We're using openbalena for quite some time now and our solution is trying BalenaOS releases, and when it doesn't work, stick with the latest BalenaOS version that worked.

Or, when I have the time, I'll test the latest openbalena dependencies (API, VPN, DB, Registry, S3) and create a PR, like #149.

Regarding the 'balena os download' command, it is not support for openbalena indeed. You've to point the CLI to balenaCloud instead of your openbalena instance. The OS downloads are public. Afaik, there isn't a website to download older BalenaOS releases at the moment.

@saltedpotatos as @bartversluijs points out - you couldn't have known since Balena are only advertising the minimum OS version required.

As feedback; it would be nice if the 404 wasn't as cryptic in the Supervisor logs OR if it could revert to a v2 state endpoint-only mode of operation 👍🏻

Version 3.7.0 is released, so this will fix your problem when using BalenaOS 2.98.33!
