2.3.2-p1 "Unable to check for updates"/"Unable to retrieve package information"

pbnet

I've also done a fiddler trace on one of the URLs Jon Posted:

And on another URL (32-bit package it seems), we get:

Same here, it seems pfSense's servers are problematic?

Exact same issues! It was working two days back but not today.. AFAIK, the only configuration I did on pfsense was enabling squid (transparent) + squidguard.

korovamilk

It looks like it was fixed. Update checking/upgrade both work for me right now.

deddric

yep seems okey now

stephenw10

Yes, it should be working fine now.
It appears there was an issue with the pkg servers which has now been resolved.

Still not working for me. It wasn't last night, and still not today.

It must have been something with the pfsense servers, I was having the same issue, and it is working fine this morning

Seeingwhite

Just to update. I rebooted my pfsense box and then tried the update. It works now.

azkerm

seems to be working yes… thanks for the update..!
