Netgate 1100 can no longer update nor install apps (again)

davidylau · Mar 8, 2023, 9:32 PM

Hi,

I have a Netgate 1100 running pfsense 22.05-Release.

I noticed that it can no longer update nor get the list of available packages.
The updates/package-list were working maybe 1 month ago when I successfully installed avahi. I only remember changing some firewall rules since then, nothing else.

I'm using the default admin account. (I have posted about a similar problem months ago, that issue turned out to be using a non-default administrator account).

Below is the output when I run "pkg-static -d update" :

@steveits Thanks!

@davidylau If yours is a small-partition system, FYI the reinstall from USB (using USB Recovery) is pretty straightforward. I did one of mine the other day and I am back up running without issue.

davidylau · Mar 9, 2023, 8:09 PM

@nguser6947 My EFI partition is 200M, so my system should be OK.

@davidylau said in Netgate 1100 can no longer update nor install apps (again):

@nguser6947 My EFI partition is 200M, so my system should be OK.

Then you should be fine, lucky you. If you don't want to wait to install 23.01 you can reinstall from image, and restore your config, or check back in a couple weeks.
