      Performed an in-place upgrade from 22.05 to 23.01 on my 6100 MAX successfully. All packages were uninstalled and reinstalled automatically. Super easy!

        I saw the notification earlier today about 23.01 being available. When I tried to upgrade this evening, something changed. Now, I am on the "latest version", but still running 23.01.r.20230208.1414.

        This message appears under System Update:

        We could not connect to Netgate servers. Please try again later.

          #metoo - Starting to think the repo servers died and my upgrade issues on various devices are related to that. I did 2 devices in the afternoon of 15 Feb (Central TZ) then I got side-tracked. A few hours later I tried to upgrade some instances in Asia remotely and 3/3 fail with repo issues.

            @mwatch EC2 instance upgraded from 22.05 to 23.01, after upgrade reboot I get this notice:

            PHP ERROR: Type: 1, File: /usr/local/sbin/ec2_setup.php, Line: 299, Message: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot access offset of type string on string in /usr/local/sbin/ec2_setup.php:299
            Stack trace:
            #0 /usr/local/sbin/ec2_setup.php(478): writeOpenVPNConfig('<REDACTED_PUBLIC_IP_OF_FIREWALL>')
            #1 {main}
            thrown @ 2023-02-16 08:25:49
            

            Strange thing is: I don't have any config related to OpenVPN (client or server).

            What to do now?

                    Hello,

                    I'm having issues trying to update to v23.01 on my SG-1100 appliance. It gets stuck when fetching the new kernel image, then the device restarts itself. Haven't done any further troubleshooting just yet, but wondering what logs I should look into?

                    Thanks!

                      Mine all started working now. 2/2 done lunch time Central. Then nothing worked now 6/6 that failed most of the day are all working now. Must have been a repo meltdown of sorts.

                        Package manager shows no packages, anyone else having this issue?

                          Must have been overloaded servers. Updated to 23.01 this morning and all is well.

                            @mtrimarchi I got same fatal error but instead file was pointing to avahi.inc. I had to restore 22.05 using backup boot environment.

                            I may try updating again after removing Avahi package.

                              Upgraded and machine will not boot. Network is hosed. How do I get back to 22.05?

                                ZFS Boot Environments got your back on this assuming you are using ZFS, not UFS. The upgrade would have created a snapshot for you automatically.

                                  @mwatch After updating my 2100 from 22.5? To 23.01, the green circle has a fast flashing blue light.

                                    Kudos on an overall "smooth like butter" experience during the upgrade, guys and gals. Appreciate the work you put in on this fine product...

                                      @rwurwin can you look at the upgrade log? And/or what does the console show?
                                      There is https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13967 for 1100/2100.

                                      Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
                                      When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
