pfSense Plus Software Version 23.05 Release Candidate Now Available

DefenderLLC

Hey All,

So I noticed the 23.09 repo returned to my update page, but when I flipped it back to 23.05.1, the widget is now presenting me with a new upgrade; however, is does not appear on the actual upgrade page. I assume this is the same version I am on now as I did not actually upgrade anything. Just a couple flips the repos. All system patches were already applied. is this just a bug?

Yes, there is an upstream bug in the data returned by pkg. Switching to 23.09 will have pulled in the new version which has it.
If you need to stay on 23.05.1 I would force reinstall pkg back to version in the 23.05.1 repo. Otherwise is should be fixed in the 23.09 version shortly.

Make sure the update repo is set to 23.05.1 then run:
pkg-static install -fy pkg

I had same problem. Firewall is on version 23.05.1-release.

Firmware Branch also set to "Latest Stable Version (23.05.1)"

When I run the command "Shell Output - pkg-static install -fy pkg" from Diagnostics\Command prompt then it is giving following error:-

How to fix this error. any idea. Thanks

stephenw10

That's not the same error. 'Bad request' like that means it's sending an invalid client certificate.

Try running at the CLI: pfSense-repoc what error does it return (if any)?

and stop automatically upgrade

What or how did you stop that ?
AFAIK, pfSense doesn't auto upgrade.

automatically upgrade

I have selected the "latest Stable Release (2.7.0) in Branch and Check mark the option "Disable the deshboard auto-upgrade Check" under System\Update\Update Setting.

@barindervicky89 That could be phrased better, it actually means “auto Dashboard update check”
