      Hi,

      after upgrading from 22.05 to 23.01 my pfSense prompt me the following message:
      Your TAC Subscription expired on 2023-02-15 05:59:34+00:00. Please renew your TAC Subscription or purchase a pfSense+ subscription standalone.

      When i go to System->Register ist says:
      Thank you for choosing Netgate pfSenseยฎ Plus

      Your device does not require registration, we recognize it already. You may have already registered, or it may be a pre-registered Netgate appliance.

      The textbox on the bottom is disabled.

            Hmm, are you actually seeing the 23.01 branch listed in System > Update?

            Can I assume this is a device that you upgrade from CE originally?

            Can you send me your NDI in chat so I can look into it?

                    Hi,

                    having the exact same issue as @revolt112, and additionally i upgraded to pfs+ tac, so got a new subscription but can't get it pasted into the token field.

                    So @stephenw10 should i wait for a official patch or can you help otherwise?

                          Hi,

                          I have the exact same problem as the users above. How can it be solved?

                            Hi @stephenw10 - same issue here. Both systems that were upgraded from 22.05 to 23.01 last week now show this message that the TAC subscription expired on 2/18.

                            EDIT: Not sure if it's related, but I'm also unable to update any packages - it's claiming the packages can't be found.

                              I ran into this with the pfblocker _2 upgrade and the systems patches updates - but just clicked on do it again and then they were found.

                                Thanks @johnpoz - after the 4th or 5th try it finally succeeded. Wonder if there is maybe a bad server in the rotation?

                                Still seeing the issue with expired TAC subscription though - only repository I can see and select is Latest Stable version.

                                  Exact same issue here. This is for my home instance which was upgraded from CE to Plus last year and then up to 23.01 yesterday. Since then I can't get a response from the upgrade dialogue or any results from the package manager search.

                                  @stephenw10 if I send you (or indeed anyone else) my NDI can you unblock me on your end ?

                                      I can certainly check it.

                                        I have the same issue here on my APU board.
                                        Can I send you my Netgate ID or is it better to wait for a fix on the backed?

                                          I can probably reset it for you now if you need to re-register.
