      @reggie14 The patches just directly modify the PHP file (it's a diff, if you look at the details you can see which lines are removed and added). An update replaces the file. Normally all Recommended patches are including in the subsequent version. After updating the System Patches package it shouldn't offer the old ones anymore, IIRC.

      Per the above diff, line 48 of certs.inc isn't modifed by the patch.

      Per various Netgate posts when upgrading to 23.01 there will be PHP errors shown while PHP is being upgraded. Those can be ignored if the upgrade completes.

      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.

        Thanks. The problem is (apparently) specifically with the call to the gettext function. I can't figure out where that function gets included/declared, but I'm definitely not a PHP guy.

        It doesn't seem to be just a warning. pfSense doesn't seem to ever boot properly. I can get to the pfSense menu in the console, but the only thing that works is opening a shell. none of the other options in the pfSense menu work, nor does the network work. There's no obvious problem in the certs.inc file, particularly on line 48, but I don't see where gettext ever gets defined.

          gettext is a standard, build in PHP function.

          If it's 'missing', don't waste your time : re install pfSense.

            I did a reinstall, but the same problem happened again when I tried to update the software again.

              You mean : you install 23.01 - boot into it - no packages what so ever and you see this error ?

              The gettext function is used :

              grep -R 'gettext(' /etc/inc/* | wc -l
              

              a ... lot !! (+2300 times) as it is used to translate the GUI.
              It only fails on this file : /etc/inc/certs.inc on line 48 ?

              Do you use the 'native' language - or some other GUI language ?

                The webGUI doesn't work at all after the 23.01 update. Even the network doesn't seem to work. The error is displayed in the console when directly attached to the fitlet2.

                  I am having the same issue upgrading on a virtual appliance from 22.01. I have also done a complete reinstall (deleted virtual disk) and gone 2.6 > 22.01 >23.01

                    Something is causing it to fail partway through the upgrade. Is the disk full or nearly full?

                    What is in /conf/upgrade_log.txt and /conf/upgrade_log.latest.txt?

                    If you have a serial console on there, run the upgrade from the serial console and record the entire process to a file and post that.

                      Yes, that seems to be the exact same set of boot screen messages that I got after attempting the 23.01 update.

                        This is happening to me as well. Lucky I've manually created a new boot environment before I did the upgrade so was able to recover from the bad upgrade.

                        My plan is to wait for 2.7 CE release and then install using that version. Then upgrade to Plus and restore the configuration file.

                        It's not ideal but at least with fresh install won't have these weird issues.

                          I still had it after doing a fresh reinstall/recovery, although that still means starting at 2.6 CE.

                          I'm going to wait for 2.7, too. I filed a ticket hoping they had been able to identify the problem from the other reports, but it sounds like they only have a solution for the Netgate hardware, which is to directly install a 23.01 image.

                            That is a completely different problem and doesn't result in the kind of errors shown in this thread.

                              Thanks. Any reason to think there would be a benefit to waiting until 2.7 CE comes out to try again?

                                Without knowing why these upgrade attempts failed, it's hard to speculate about possible solutions or workarounds. We need more information about what happened.

                                  I will get the detail out of those logs today and post back.

                                    Bit later then hopped but I have a load of outputs. The key thing to say is I have no IP access to the machine only VMware console.

                                    Looks like the PHP upgrade is corrupt.

                                        Bit later then hopped but I have a load of outputs. The key thing to say is I have no IP access to the machine only VMware console.

                                        The output you show isn't from pfSense-upgrade going from the old version to the new version, you're doing something directly with pkg and it's at least already partially on 23.01 there. You need to go back further and try the whole upgrade again.

                                        Was that in the upgrade log latest file or console output? That's a start but there should be a lot more after that. That's just what shows up as it's preparing to do the upgrade, there should be more after for when it's doing the next part.

                                          Yep. pfSEnse says the same thing.
                                          It can't go out, looking for updates etc.

                                          Redo your VM setup : assign NICs etc.

                                          When pfSense boots, and it find NICs, you'll be able to assign them, like 'em0' == WAN, em1 is LAN etc.

                                          And yes, the gettext error means something is really bad, as the gettext function is part of PHP.

                                          No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                                          Edit : and where are the logs ??

                                            I can't assign any nics through the usual menu. After upgrading it drops me to shell.
