              @yon-0 I recieved this same error.

              The fix for me was still turning off automatic update check for Dashboard page.
              System --> Update --> Update Settings
              then checking below
              Dashboard check [checked to disable] Disable the Dashboard auto-update check

                        You tried resaving the repo branch as shown here?:

                                      It's in the system infomation widget on the dashboard or above the menu at the console. Or shown by running gnid at the CLI.
