I executed the following as specified in the ExtJS 5 upgrade guide:

sencha app upgrade -ext

And I got this output with error:

sencha app upgrade -ext

And when I execute simply "sencha app upgrade" I get this:

Try adding app.cmd.version=3.0.0.250 (or whatever version of cmd you were running) to your app's sencha.cfg file. That works for me.

Although I don't know why, I also got the above error upgrading from Ext 5 Beta to GA and the only way was to generate the app anew (sencha generate app ...) and manually copy files to the newly generated folder structure.

on Linux it's the default to have it defined in /root/.bashrc (no clue why it says 3_0_0):

export PATH=/root/bin/Sencha/Cmd/5.0.0.160:$PATH
export SENCHA_CMD_3_0_0="/root/bin/Sencha/Cmd/5.0.0.160"

on Windows... goto "System Settings" -> "Advanced" -> "Environment Variables..."

and define it there (then one can simply type "sencha" and it will be known).

if the installer doesn't function as it should (Linux example):

cd /tmp/sencha1403206728375
./SenchaCmd-5.0.0.160-linux-x64.run
cd .. && rm -R ./sencha1403206728375/

I believe the installer prefers to be called from the current directory - this helps at at least when sencha upgrade gets stuck.

one needs to reconnect (reboot?) once the environment was updated, in order to extend the PATH spec. with updated SenchCmd one then can use the updated SDK (seems downward compatible).
