Now Available: pfSense® CE 2.8.0-RELEASE
-
@jiri-zemanek OK, by using
git blame ./sys/sys/param.hin thedevel-mainbranch and traversing backwards I found46297859a745 (John Baldwin 2024-12-06 17:25:04 -0500 76) #define __FreeBSD_version 1500029which is the same version that reports
sysctl kern.osreldate. So I'll use that. -
OK, so I installed 2.8.0 CE via the netgate installer ISO and now I am trying to install ACME plugin:
WARNING: Current pkg repository has a new PHP major version. pfSense should be upgraded before installing any new package.When looking at the System --> Update, it says:
Current Base System 2.8.0 Latest Base System 2.7.0 Status Running a newer version.So not sure HOW...
It seems this release is so hot that it's still glowing...
-
It looks like your update branch is somehow set to 2.7.0. Did you restore a config with that set?
Do you see the 2.8.0 branch available to set?
Are you using any custom repos?
-
@stephenw10 No, it's CLEAN install.
-
@stephenw10 .....and the CLEAN install has Branch pull down menu EMPTY.
-
@jiri-zemanek Out of curiosity I installed using netgate installer ISO the 2.7.2 version and it does not even show available packages because the /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/pfSense.conf -> /usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense_Installer-repo-0002.conf link is broken (there is no /usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense_Installer-repo-0002.conf file). It seems the testing department is on holiday for a long time :-D
-
Seems more like you have no upstream access to pull the repo branches on either version for some reason.
In 2.8 try running:
pfSense-repoc -NDsee what errors it returns. -
@stephenw10 No error, just printed some system info (OS, platform, etc.). The last line some POST data.
-
Hmm, yet you still see no branches? If you run
pfSense-repoc -NDJit ll show you the branch JSON data you are passed.What hardware are you running on? What was the driver you needed to build?
-
Ah, are you trying to run in Azure by any chance? Because that is not supported if so.
-
I don't see the CE 2.8.0 version at all, even after a reboot. Under System/Update only "Previous Stable Version (2.7.2)" or older versions show. What am I missing?
-
You are trying to upgrade to 2.8?
Do you see any errors if you run:
pfSense-repoc -D? -

Oh you're on 2.7.0. You'll need to upgrade to 2.7.2 first. In general upgrades are only supported from two previous versions.
-
@stephenw10
I don't understand. If I go to System/Update there is nothing newer to update to. The version showing in pic is the latest version in the drop down.
How to update?

-
It will be the missing cert issue. Run:
certctl rehashthen recheck. -
@stephenw10 said in Now Available: pfSense
CE 2.8.0-RELEASE:Run: certctl rehash then recheck.
I ran this and and it came back permission denied.
Here is a pic of Certificates.
I'm no expert, but aren't these good? What do I need to do? -
How did you run it? It should look something like:
