8200 max updated to 23.01, crashes

rcoleman-netgate

@manilx Open a ticket at https://go.netgate.com to get the 23.01 image and reinstall from there.

This is an example of an incomplete upgrade -- there are a lot of changes between 22.05 and 23.01 for both the OS and PHP and this can happen.

stephenw10

It shouldn't happen though. Did the upgrade appear to complete correctly?

You might check the upgrade log in /conf.

@stephenw10 Yes, it did its thing and then rebooted.

/conf/upgrade_log.txt shows:

Updating repositories metadata... done.
Your system is up to date

manilx

@manilx /cf/conf/upgrade_log.latest.txt shows a lot of errors. too long to post here

manilx

@manilx Should I revert to 22.05 snapshot?

manilx

@manilx Actually after a reboot all seems normal and working.

Most of the errors in that log are expected due to the PHP version upgrade. The only part that isn't is the pfBlocker errors:

Removing pfBlockerNG...

Those are also caused by the PHP change but unlike the others are more than just cosmetic.

Reinstalling pfBlocker should resolve it though if anyone else is seeing this.

@stephenw10 Thx!

I did uninstalled pfblockerng-dev and install pfblockerng release, which now is the same.

Did a reboot and no errors, seems working OK.

I have the 22.0.5.1 snapshot, which I can rollback to, uninstall pfblockerng before the update and then update again if need be.

stephenw10

You should be OK from there. It's the uninstall script that fails because of the php change. Installing again after the php upgrade is complete works as expected and restores the correct files/settings.
