      Hi all

      I have encountered a problem when trying to update the firewall.
      Current installed version: 23.05 on Netgte 6100.
      In the graphical interface I get: you are at the latest version:
      Available list of packages is empty.

      Here are the stept for troubleshooting:

      Updating from consule menu yelds this result:
      ........
      4) Reset to factory defaults 13) Update from console
      5) Reboot system 14) Disable Secure Shell (sshd)
      6) Halt system 15) Restore recent configuration
      7) Ping host 16) Restart PHP-FPM
      8) Shell

      Enter an option: 13

        @ioanv did you try switching to Previous Stable and back again?

        https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/upgrades.html#upgrade-not-offered-library-errors

        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.

            @ioanv 23.05.1 should be detected so it seems like it's been an issue for a few months.

            @stephenw10 may have some insight.

            The brute force method would be to reinstall (free ticket): https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-6100/reinstall-pfsense.html
            and then restore the config file.

              Yeah, that's a repo cert issue. Send me your NDI in chat and I'll check it.
