      The 'Bad rquest' error indicates the system is sending an invalid client cert.

      The 'invalid signature' error from repoc indicates it's not able to pull a new cert.

      Send me your NDI in chat and I'll check it.

          This ended up being my fault by adding a new NIC to the VM in Proxmox and therefore invalidating/changing the NDI. I was able to reactivate with a new pfSense+ token and now everything works again.

                      I now have the same issue, after replacing a NIC with a faulty port. How does one invalidate the prior license key so that it can register again on the same device (albeit with a different network card)?

                      Thanks!

                            Then recheck.

                              @stephenw10 what a simple fix. Strange on a fresh install that’s a problem but seems to have resolved. Will need to retry the upgrade in the daytime me.

                                That's fixed in 2.7.2.

                                    After system failure and disk replacement I'm facing same issue and unfortunetely running certctl rehash gives no effect.
                                    Do I have to regenerate my token for my pfSense+ license? If yes, how to do that?

                                      Send me your NDI in chat and I'll check it. That would only be an issue in Plus though.

                                        Happy New Year,

                                        after connecting two pfSense instances via WireGuard VPN (home and cloud) I have the same problem.
                                        On both instances I have the "pfSense-repoc: invalid signature" message on the System - Update page.

                                        @stephenw10 May I send you the two NDIs via PM?

                                        Best regards
                                        Arne
