Yes I would probably just reinstall 24.03 clean. However you may be able to upgrade from there by setting the ranch back to 22.05 and then force reinstalling the key packages:

@provels You didn’t get sent through the store?

@stephenw10 thank you, helped me today on one of the customers 2100 box.

Just renumber the LAN for the install to any unused subnet. Or even just unassign the LAN. You only need the WAN interface to access the pkg servers.

@stephenw10 perfect, thank you :)

@Cergo said in very slow upgrading:

then after a reboot the unpacking and installation is very slow.

Hmm, that seems odd. Hard to see how that could be anything but a drive issue.

Unless maybe it's a decompression issue, trying to use some hardware offloading that isn't correctly supported. 🤔

The Net Installer can install CE. It will offer that if you don't have current eligibility for Plus.

For reference if you're stuck on 2.7.0 it's usually because of the cert issue. Running: certctl rehash will allow it to see 2.7.2.

@stephenw10 I'm showing normal behaviour now as well.

@stephenw10 Perfect!
After the message below and system stopping, I was able restart and use the USB to update to ver 24.x and a fresh install.
Thanks!

@areckethennu said in 23.09.1 to 24.03_1: No Internet Afterwards:

several certificates it skipped as untrusted

FWIW I think that's "normal"...have seen that on all the routers I've updated so far. It's noticeable because it seems to take a while to work through them...at least I don't recall seeing that on any previous update.

re: Config History, note pfBlocker updates the config file with a timestamp at every cron interval so it can pretty quickly push out history if it runs at the default of hourly.

@stephenw10 Yes, thanks, I already added it

Ah, cool. 👍

Hmm, well I'm not aware of any specific issue with that CPU platform. Could be something BIOS specific.

I would try a clean 2.7.2 install and see if it fails the same way.

No worries. I'm pretty sure we found and fixed that bug. The next installer build should have that.

@stephenw10 said in pfSense stops updating packages:

@compiz said in pfSense stops updating packages:

it starts with crashed page

How is it failing? Definitely DNS not resolving?

Should probably move this to a new thread if pkgs are updating OK now.

Yeah DNS not resolving, but let's close this topic. It seems to be ok now only facebook show "connected" and "disconnected" all the time, I will reboot it later tonight and I think this will fix everything :)

Thanks for all the help!

@stephenw10 Everything worked. Thank you for your input, it's much appreciated.

Huh. Well that's unexpected. It was clearly loaded the EFI console previously. https://imgur.com/4lH0PK0

Good result though. 😁

Yup 24.02-Beta2 is the current version of the Net Installer. A new version is coming soon. And likely a new naming/numbering scheme with it. 😉

Hmm, well also shouldn't be unique to home/lab. If an NDI is seen as eligible it will show the branches. The subscription type doesn't matter.

The most common issue there is that the NDI changed but that doesn't seem likely here if you were able to just reinstall.
