      Ah. now it works, a pkg-static -d update is now connecting to files00.netgate.com instead of pkg00.atx.netgate.com

      Thanks!

        @jimp said in I get "pfSense-core has no meta file" and cannot update:

        It's possible that it's still cached. If you run a command such as host -t srv _https._tcp.packages-beta.netgate.com it should be returning files00.netgate.com and files01.netgate.com.

        Give it a few more minutes and try it again.

        Output of the above command is:

        _https._tcp.packages-beta.netgate.com has SRV record 10 10 443 pk00.atx.netgate.com
        

        I will try what @xplChris sugested

          It works after I used:

          pkg-static -d update
          

          Thank you

            Well I also lost available packages all at same time, restarted unbound still no luck getting it to work

            You should see them again after you fix this.

            Try what @xplChris sugested

                host -t srv _https._tcp.packages-beta.netgate.com

                    Then you have some other unrelated issue, start a new thread.

                      @jimp Sorry.

                      Maybe its related to this... the dropdown is empty

                        As per information provided by @jimp this looks good. Sorry, but I don't know what to suggest further.

                          That wouldn't be related to this. Start your own thread.

                            I'm running 2.7.0-DEVELOPMENT (amd64) built on Fri Mar 11 06:21:33 UTC 2022 and it will not update. I tried restarting unbound, but it made no difference.

                            Any suggestions?

                            UPDATE: I tried to update from the console and this time it worked.
