Could not contact pfsense update server
-
An ETA would be good
-
Yes, it would. There isn't one, however. Not yet.
-
files.pfsense.org is offline for some reason, try again later.
I'm still not sure this answers my question.. Should I just change PFSense's default update URL from "snapshot" to "files"?
Thanks,

BenI don't think it will help, they all seem to be down for me (updates, snapshots, and files)

was having a good day till I read your post, why is it not going to end and time soon Doh!!! is there a ETA on that at least rofl
seriously for a moment least give them a few hours before moaning about the down time, these guys do a lot of work keeping things going and there up time is excellent in my opinion.
keep up the good work pfsense we all love you

I wasn't actually posting to this thread from back in October about it being down, btw :) I'm in no hurry. I was just curious why for the past months my update screen showed "failed." And from responses I'm guessing I need to change from "snapshots" to "files" and it will fix it when things come back up. If someone could give me confirmation on that, that would be great.
Thanks!

B.I know you wasn't but your thread was hijack by someone that did not know the servers was down because they had done a new install I think and was seeing a similar problem, then someone, mentioning no names andrew0401 changed the topic (don't think they meant to just did not read your opening thread).
hope this answers your question change the update line to:
http://updates.pfsense.org/_updaters/amd64 (for x64)
http://updates.pfsense.org/_updaters (for x86)and that should fix your issues also the update server is up and running now so from the dashboard you should see "your on the latest version" or "there is an update" depending on what version you have installed, the package server is still down though

That's because the DNS on updates.pfsense.org just switched to the site we brought online for updates. :-)

Perfect, thanks!
As for the "new install", that was me, too. I was surprised to find comments from October saying that "snapshots" was not the right URL, because I downloaded and installed in late November and "snapshots" was still the URL it was using. I would have thought the image would have been updated with the correct URL (This was all pre-2.0.1 release). In any event, it's all working now.
Thanks again,

Apologies to all - did not intend a hijack
