        To add my solution (no idea how "dirty" it is):

        I SSH'd in and executed "pkg install pfSense-pkg-pfBlockerNG" to get the -stable version. While the de-installation of -devel got stuck I SSH'd a second shell & searched for the 100% php process and just killed that one. Not the de-installation of -devel and installation of -stable continued. After finishing I could reach the GUI again and it looks normal.

          I did the update.
          In the last two entries he did not write DONE. is this correct?

            Whooops, I had just clicked on upgrade package and at the same time landed here to read up on the update. Lucky I have an HA setup and a backup of the first VM which I started to update. Both php processes on both CPUs were swapping to 100% CPU usage when I dropped in the cli to take a peek with top as reported. I didn't want to go through the fix hassle and just restored the previous backup of my first pfSense VM while the second one became master (Hail to HA and CARP! How many times has this setup saved me unwanted trips and angry calls!) and in less than 7 minutes everything was back to normal. Definitely will wait this one out ;)

              @Unoptanio interestingly you can still get into the gui via other pages like the package manager etc. Had the same issue but the url extension for the package manager page autofilled by my browser and I was able to get in that way. Only the main page of the GUI doesn’t work, once in if you click on the main landing page it will still get stuck all the other parts of the GUI firewall, nat etc work… Another issue is it’s now showing multiple packages as updatable that have no updates like ntopng; some just reinstall the original package and others get stuck attempting to reinstall. I guess it caused some sort of corruption. Hopefully a fix soon.

                Panic!

                I made 3 or 4 attempts to restart but they didn't solve the problem.
                After the last reboot I was able to access the GUI with this screen and message:

                It appears to have automatically rolled back to version 23.09.1

                5ef6315b-12e0-4c63-80a5-991ef1cd053c-image.png

                At this point I restored a backup I had

                Unfortunately I immediately updated without reading other users' experiences, otherwise I wouldn't have done it.

                At this point if I update to version 24.03_1 in the end when I restart everything stops again

                  First time that I've been bitten by an apparently bad package update on pfSense... This issue is taking place on 24.03

                  Stalled with the following output:

                  I've let it sit for several minutes and note that a couple of the php processes seem to be hapily eating at the CPU trough:

                                I have now restored a backup from files I made in August.
                                The only problem is that after the restore it takes me back to version 23.09.1 ​​with all the packages in old versions. At this point if I update to version 24.06_1 when doing the final reboot the gui stall problem I initially had occurs again.

                                  I solved my problem by following @stephenw10 suggestions on this thread: https://forum.netgate.com/post/1185688 Thanks Stephen!!

                                  Also needed to kill off a pfblockerng.php cron process left over from the prior devel version.

                                        ... 3.2.0.16 is out

                                        Yeah, saw that.
                                        Did a save, a ZFS clone, rebootted from that, and installed the "16".
                                        Saw procs hitting 100 % again as this morning, so I bailed out. I'll give it a 7 days cool-down from now ^^

                                        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.

                                            This is a great system for testing, ZFS Boot Environment.
                                            Too bad it didn't occur to me
