        @matsan Yours is a slightly difference scenario, relating to the upgrade. Mine is after the successful upgrade, with a warning triggered by running the "package manager GUI" and CLI command "pkg upgrade" (not pfsense-upgrade)

          webgui dashboard
          system > update > update settings
          Check "create boot environment.... and click save*
          wait a while, a moment like 5 minutes
          Connect via console and try out option (13)
          have a look now if this be running fine again.

            @Dobby_ said in 23.05-RELEASE package manager and pkg upgrade issues:

            Check "create boot environment"

            There is no such option on the setting page. Only selection of branch, and "Disable the Dashboard auto-update check"

                  If you click the "save" button the cert will be new
                  saved also to your installation, you go then to the
                  console and type in "13" for using option (13)
                  after some time let us say 5 minutes and then
                  it should all fine for you again and you will be
                  able to update/upgrade again.

                    @Dobby_ I followed your suggestion but it made no difference. If you check my initial post you will see that there were no issues with certificates, it looks more like a server misconfiguration. Don't confuse my issue with what @matsan reported.

                    Your screenshot states "Choose pfSence Plus Upgrade to upgrade to pfSense Plus", which naturally lead me to the conclusion that the screenshot was not from a pfSense Plus software release.

                        today "pkg upgrade" worked but the package manager still generates an error:

                          @pst The Boot Environments menu is only available if running Plus and the file system is ZFS. If upgraded from UFS then a reinstall is necessary to get ZFS.

                          I know this is the upgrade page but you could try
                          https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/upgrades.html#upgrade-not-offered-library-errors

                          “If the upgrade is still not offered, refresh the repository configuration and upgrade script by running the following commands from the console or shell:

                          pkg-static clean -ay; pkg-static install -fy pkg pfSense-repo pfSense-upgrade

                          ”
                          (My emphasis)

                          I had a similar error when upgrading (maybe their servers are busy?). I resolved mine by going to System/Update/Settings and saving the page without making changes. Others have changed to Previous branch and back to Current again. Others used the above command.

                          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.

                            @SteveITS I didn't have any problems upgrading, I am on 23.05-RELEASE and the only remaining problem is when I go to the Package Manager (in the GUI) it triggers an error in the log (see image in my previous post).

                            I ran your commands but the issue still remains.

                              After running around in circles for almost a week, trying all suggestions on the forum I finally got it working. The solution? Using the console and

                              13) Update from console
