      Hi all
      Hi @jimp

      Today i was going to update a 2.6.0 CE installation to 2.7.0 CE.

      The dashboard only showed: Unable to check for updates. The same at System > Update > System Update.

      The CLI displayed following:

      [2.6.0-RELEASE][admin@my.firewall.local]/root: pkg-static update
Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue...
pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package
pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package
repository pfSense-core has no meta file, using default settings
pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package
pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package
Unable to update repository pfSense-core

pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package

pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package
pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package
Unable to update repository pfSense
Error updating repositories!

      Issues was solvable by rehash all certs.

      [2.6.0-RELEASE][admin@my.firewall.local]/root: certctl rehash

      I found the solution here:

      Maybe this is a information that can be added to the Troubleshooting Upgrades guide.

      Happy pfsensing...

        Hmm, interesting. That shouldn't be required and I'd be hesitant to recommend it until I fully understood exactly what that did or why it was needed.
