Unable to get wan ip after 23.05.1 update. Undefined constant "IFF_PPROMISC"

[confx]

Constant is missing.
Update via console aint working because it cannot fetch the data. No wan connection.
How can this be fixed?

Bootup complete

That looks like an incomplete upgrade. The IFF_PPROMISC function is new in 23.05.1 so it looks like it has the file but not where it's defined.

Is the WAN just not connecting after boot? You could try running dhclient mvneta0 at the command line.

You can always reinstall 23.05.1 clean and restore your config. That's often the fastest way to get back up and running.

@stephenw10
The solution was a complete reinstall.
although I think it could possibly also be solved by defining the variable in the file itself because that was present. If the file was not present, the error "could not include file ("....")
That solution would have been less time consuming.

I must admit that the response time for the tac support was very fast.
If it is good, it can also be said.

Case closed
