23.01 Upgrade failed - dead in the water

Jonb

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

jimp

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.

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

Jonb

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.

@jonb said in 23.01 Upgrade failed - dead in the water:

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.

@jonb said in 23.01 Upgrade failed - dead in the water:

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.

Jonb

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

Jonb

@jimp
That output was after doing an update throught the web GUI. I though the same thing about the issue with the logs showing the old version.

When the system reboots it just presents me the shell and to login. The last SS was running pfSense-upgrade when it was broken.

I am trying to post the rest of the log but the forum has a limit. So here the file.upgrade log.txt

jimp

@jonb If /conf/upgrade_log.latest.txt is there it may also have more information. So far nothing in what you've posted looks out of the ordinary.

Jonb

@jimp said in 23.01 Upgrade failed - dead in the water:

/conf/upgrade_log.latest.txt

The second SS is /conf/upgrade_log.latest.txt

Jonb

I have just tried an update through console instead of GUI. After reboot I get:

Anything else I can provide to help find the issue?

jimp

Whatever happened would be up much higher in the boot output than that. I'm not sure if it works on your version of vmware, but try pressing the Scroll Lock key and then Page Up as far as you can and see if you can see the start of the errors.

So far the pfSense-upgrade output you've showed looked OK but incomplete, and nothing after that has been anything but errors that aren't suggesting any particular root cause.

after upgrading to 23.01 and rebooting, good that I have cronjob saving my configs once a day
