@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?

I am getting that this morning on all my pfsense systems, I should have updated last night before the systems got overwhelmed.

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?

swampkracker

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.

@steveits how do I view the readme file

rwurwin

@steveits oops how do I get to the upgrade log

If you’re saying you restarted it then you didn’t wait long enough and will likely have to reinstall. Or if it’s the boot loader problem I linked.

@steveits thank you for the information

Initially, I wanted to wait until morning.
Like my favorite You-tuber always says "Let Mikey go first ...".

But hey, I've ZFS, so I prepared a 'I was here' point with a click.
Rebooted pfSense for good manners.
Checked available disk space.
Made a extra copy of the config.xml.

I upgraded using the console, option 13, as this shows what happens, my terminal sessions are logged for 'later analyses' if needed.

It was a no brainer.
