What do you see at the command line if you run: pkg -d update ?

Unable to update repository pfSense
Error updating repositories!

stephenw10 · Mar 17, 2023, 10:35 PM

Ok, that looks like it needs to pull an updated cert. That should happen whenever the update checks runs but you can also run pfSense-upgrade -c at the CLI.
Do you see available branches in System > Update? Or an error there?

tedquade · Mar 17, 2023, 11:08 PM

@stephenw10 "Do you see available branches in System > Update? Or an error there?"

I am presented with "Latest Stable Version (23.01)" as the only item and no error messages.

I am about to try pfSense-upgrade -c and I'll let you know the result shortly.

Hmm, can you send me your NDI in chat?

@stephenw10 Done.

Exact same issue for me as well:

If you send me your NDI in chat I can check it.

danejones · Mar 18, 2023, 3:27 PM

I'm having the same issue. Started this morning.

flatsphere · Mar 19, 2023, 6:01 AM

@danejones Same issue here. Started about a week ago. Running 23.01 release. Used to work just fine.

Viper_Rus · Mar 19, 2023, 7:10 AM

I'm having the same issue. Started today

pfSense-upgrade -c
``` solved the problem,
although it starts with an error

Mine similar, but more errors:

G.Hammer · Mar 20, 2023, 1:54 PM

I had the same issue and this corrected it for me.

Deleted as it did not apply to others.

tedquade · Mar 20, 2023, 1:49 PM

@g-hammer That did not resolve the issue for me and instead caused an update to system_patches to present in installed packages. I have reverted your suggested change to /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf.

Ted Quade

G.Hammer · Mar 20, 2023, 1:53 PM

@tedquade I shall remove the suggested fix then.

G.Hammer · Mar 20, 2023, 2:15 PM

If you saw the 'fix' before I deleted it, the stanza deleted is restored at any change to anything in the GUI and/or at reboot.

tedquade · Mar 20, 2023, 2:17 PM

@g-hammer I saw that in other posts on the matter. Thanks for the heads-up though.

Ted Quade

stephenw10 · Mar 20, 2023, 9:45 PM

Yes, It looks like there is a problem here. We have replicated it locally and should have a solution shortly.
