After manually kicking off the October update everything seemed to work as normal, but on the restart I just get a black screen. I have tried rebooting and manually upgrading via SSH but no job.
Nothing is being logged to .kodi/temp/kodi.log
and checking the service status shows;

What else can I check to see what is going wrong here?
Thanks,

Suggest to upload full logs grab-logs -A
to get a better picture of what might be wrong.
Seems to be a corrupted system

Maybe try manually to update with
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
And check the output, if that doesnât work maybe a reinstall would be the fastest way (but check SD Card and Powersupply before).
I have already tried the manual upgrade, it is reporting nothing to do.
This was a new install a few weeks ago (after a corruption then). It is running off a 2A iPad charger (RPi3).
I will try reinstalling on a new SD card I have here.
Thanks for having a look. Frustrating this keeps happening after years of trouble-free operation!
I thought the RPi3 was supposed to be much better with SD card corruption issues?
Not recommended, the RPi3 is specified with 5V/2.5A and best not to use any âchargerâ.
If you get into corruption with updates it either is a power supply or SD Card problem. Suggest to only use high quality SD Card cards from a trusted resources.
I admit I didnât know that - I thought a 2A supply was plenty. I will order a proper supply now from ModMyPi!
How about ordering it from OSMC story to support OSMC 
But to be honest a bad SD Card might be another likely culprit. There is bad shit of SD Cards out there.
Ah of course - I didnât realise they stocked them - I will definitely order from there. I just bought two of the OSMC remotes and they arrived nice and quick and are fantastic, so more than happy to support the store. Thanks again!
Your system is definitely corrupted. I could suggest a couple of commands, but to be honest it looks like more than one or two problematic packages, so it may be best to start over.
I think reinstalling OSMC once every 18 months is realistic. There are some backup options in My OSMC which may help you
Thanks for supporting OSMC 
Sam
Appreciate the feedback guys - I have rebuilt using a new SD card and everything is looking good again. Really do love this system!

I have a similar problem after the update. Iâm stuck in the smiley face down loop.
I think some configuration breaks the system after the update. Here is the output from grab-all http://paste.osmc.io/atebulocix
Iâve moved the .kodi folder away and started kodi and it comes up.
osmc@osmc:~$ kodi-standalone
unknown
unknown
mv: failed to preserve ownership for â/boot/config.txtâ: Operation not permitted
Segmentation fault
Crash report available at /home/osmc/kodi_crashlog-20161031_230027.log

mv: failed to preserve ownership for â/boot/config.txtâ: Operation not permitted
Any ideas how I can fix my config or should I not bother and just re-enter all the settings?
Update: here the output from the crashlog mentioned above http://paste.osmc.io/aboterijah
Update 2: itâs not impossible Iâm a victim of the bigger Power supply needs as I have two USB discs attached (but also have an icybox 3.5A PSU)
You shouldnât launch Kodi with the kodi-standalone
command.
Ok and thanks for the super quick response. Have I broken it substantially?
I havenât checked your log to see what other commands you have run. The update is generally well received, so a reinstall is probably a good idea if youâve been playing with it.
@PeterHandke your log file has many errors such as these
23:00:24 2646.491943 T:1757410288 ERROR: CCurlFile::Open failed with code 404 for http://download.osmc.tv/kodi/addons/jarvis/metadata.themoviedb.org/metadata.themoviedb.org-3.9.2.zip.md5
You appear to have a network/internet connection problem.
Given that your full logs reveal that external connections are being routed through TOR I would disable that first and try again.
