XG7100 upgrade fails
-
Hi all,
My XG-7100-1u seems to be stuck in a Not yet ready, Retrying in another 20 seconds. That has been repeating for about 15 minutes. This is my second attempt to upgrade to 23.01. The first attempt just restarted as 22.05, but aside from the fact that it didn’t actually upgrade although it did fetch and unpack all if the required files etc. it rebooted okay aside from the fact that it was still on 22.05. I’m not sure what I should do here. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
I have no idea what the issue was, but I decided after nearly 20 minutes of watching the same "not ready" message, I decided to reboot it from the console, which seemed to get it going again, and it is now on 23.01.

@ramizak 15 minutes is probably not long enough.

Usually that results in a partial install. If you find any issues you can/should reinstall.
-
@steveits Thanks. I only went to the console to reboot after right at 20 minutes. The only packages I have installed are IPSEC and Wireguard, and I did use the proper image for my device. In previous upgrades it didn't take anywhere near that long to get going, but I'll know going forward to allow more time before I resort to other measures.

Agreed. Mine was 20 minutes from 22.05 to 23.01 here on my edge, and one of my updates in the past took over an hour when changing FreeBSD releases.

@rcoleman-netgate Since you’re here :) can the update page default to 15 minute timer and still check every 30s in the background?
seems safer…2 minutes implies it’ll take 2 minutes… -
@steveits You know my answer to this, right?
-
@rcoleman-netgate I agree with Steve. As a relative newcomer to Netgate/pfSense, the 2 minute timer suggests that is how long it is expected to take. Given the lengthy delay it was my assumption that something had gone wrong with my upgrade.
-
@ramizak (since you're new here)... you're welcome to do what I haven't told @SteveITS to do... and that's open a redmine feature request at https://redmine.pfsense.org and get it added to the list of other requests
-
@rcoleman-netgate Meh, I'll bite and create one. I'm 0-1 on those today already. :-/
-
@steveits Good luck. I have faith in you.
-
@rcoleman-netgate 1-1, so far :)
-
@rcoleman-netgate Even though Steve is going to do it, I'll do it also. Perhaps more than one request might give it a bit more credence.
Thanks,
Mike
