        @stephenw10 well of course I jumped on that sword.
        Everything seemed fine when I left the house this morning, and I haven't had any angry texts yet today.

          @mtarbox 23.01-RC (amd64)
          built on Sun Jan 08 15:18:55 UTC 2023
          FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT

          Upgrade was uneventful.

              @tedquade rolled it back, THANK GOODNESS FOR ZFS, rebooted to 23.01.b, and voila, there was the RC, all nice and shiny. Gave it the old cli razzle-dazzle, reboot, and after acknowledging things, all was good in my world. Also deleted the 23.05 environment.

                  The dev branch on my pfsense still only shows 23.01.b.20230106.0600 available. No RC

                    If you're running 22.05 that's what it will show. Once you upgrade to that you will see RC available.

                        Updated this morning and everything looks to have gone well after a few reboots and reloads to make pfblocker happy.

                        However, I noticed that I no longer have any selections for Branch

                        I was also expecting to now see an RC option but do not see that.

                          Most likely your NDI changed from that originally registered. Did you change the hardware?

                            Nope same exact hardware no changes. Was setup about a week and a half ago updated to plus and was waiting for the RC so I did the update this morning with no changes to hardware.

                            I can provide my ID if needed.

                                On Netgate 1100 upgrade from 22.05 to 23.01 didn't go well. After changing the update branch to Latest Development Snapshots, 23.01.b.20230106.0600 was offered and accepted. Gui showed the following errors early on, but other than that, upgrade seemed to go through:

                                Checking update version failed, so before recovering back to 22.05 there was no harm in trying these commands mentioned earlier in this thread:

                                [22.05-RELEASE][root@plusdev-3.stevew.lan]/usr/local/libexec: rm /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/pfSense.conf 
                                [22.05-RELEASE][root@plusdev-3.stevew.lan]/usr/local/libexec: ln /usr/local/share/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-devel.conf /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/pfSense.conf
                                

                                After that update indicated that 23.01.r.20230108.1514 was available and that went through to 23.01-RC without errors.

                                  Hmm, yeah those errors you see are the result of an incomplete upgrade for some reason.

                                  I would guess it was because pfBlocker failed to complete it's uninstall script.

                                  The initial error is expected the pfSense-upgrade script allows it to continue past the ABI mismatch.

                                    Upgraded from 22.05 to 23.01-BETA last month without any trouble pfBlogger being the same version as today (3.1.0_9).

                                      Hmm, could be a new bug caused by some other changes then. The errors you see before that though show a PHP version mismatch.

                                          Just updated to 23.01-BETA. Was expecting to see 23.01-RC. Even after a few reboots, update checks, and brach changes the option does not exist. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
