      I think I messed it up even more. Currently php is messed up, GUI disfunctional.

      # pfSense-upgrade -d

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function gettext() in /etc/inc/certs.inc:48
Stack trace:

      pkg-static -d update runs through OK.

        Hmm, I assume reinstalling this would be difficult?

        pkg-static -d update runs successfully against the 23.05 repo?

          reinstalling would include sending the appliance from one country to the other .. I am a few hundred kms away from that box. I have a 2nd SG1100 there (already on 23.05, no such issues there!), so it's possible, but it would be great to avoid that.

          Yes, pkg-static -d update succeeds while:

            Ah, it's an 1100?

            Is it installed as ZFS? You can probably roll back to a snapshot before you tried to upgrade if so.

              @stephenw10 yeah, zfs.

              tried to reinstall php stuff and gettext etc ... a mess

              gui broken, can I roll back from cli?

                Yes, you can using bectl. Or from the loader if you have console access.

                First check what there is:

                bectl list -s

                    Could I get some list of php-packages to reinstall maybe? That might fix something ...

                    Rolling back is not possible as far as I understand. Looks as if everything has been written into this first boot env.

                    thanks

                      Yup no BE snaps other than default, nothing to roll back to.

                      What pkg versions have you ended up with:

                      pkg-static info -x pfsense

                          Ok those are old versions of pfSense-upgrade.

                          Try running: pkg-static upgrade pfSense-upgrade

                          Then try to run that again once it's updated.

                              I suggested the customer to send the appliance, will get his reply tmrw.

                              I think we can't trust it anymore, right now this:

                                Hmm, did it not offer an upgrade for pfSense-upgrade?

                                It's still looking at the 23.05 repo branch?

                                  @stephenw10 it's looking at 23.01 (/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-prev.conf)

                                      Ah, Ok if it's still looking at 23.01 it might be time to do a forced reinstall of all pkgs from that repo. It's not something I'd normally recommend but there may not be much else we can do here:

                                          Couldn't I "simply" scp/rsync some directories from a working appliance into the buggy one to make php work for now? I know it's ugly.

                                            The user cert has expired. Updating that could be a problem if you can't run either pfSense-repoc or pfSense-upgrade -c

                                            Where is this actually installed? Is there no way you can get remote hands on it to help with a re-install?
