System is on a later version than the official release / Latest 0.18_1

ThePOO

I had the time and spare box to let it "do its thing" and confirmed the update in System->Update ….. it went through its motions and apparently did update something .....
Anyway, all is well and System->Update now reflects that everything is updated.

Since it didn't happen on any of my test boxes, could you go to console and run following command, then send me the output?

pfSense-upgrade -c -d

This is harmless and will only say if there is a new version available.

chpalmer

~~Only on one of my several boxes so far.. ~~

Going back through them they are all showing it now.

/root: pfSense-upgrade -c -d

I have the same output as chpalmer:

Seeing on both Netgate boxes and my own boxes with "CE".. 2.3.3R only. No issues with my 2.4B boxes.

Found this notice when I signed into my pfsense firewall. I'm currently on the latest release, however it's saying the "official release" is 0.18_1. See attachments.

I've pushed a fix, it's on pfSense-upgrade 0.19.

pfSense-upgrade was considering its new version as a new firmware version. The issue is harmless and if you finish the upgrade nothing bad will happen.

Fix is on version 0.19. As soon as it's available it's safe to manually run 'pkg upgrade pfSense-upgrade' on console to go to latest verssion.

This issue is being tracked at https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/7343

Sorry for the inconvenience

RonpfS

Now I get :

chpalmer

My boxes are now showing up to date 2.3.3 without any updating by me.

Going to console and running..

pkg upgrade pfSense-upgrade

Im prompted with an upgrade from 0.17 to 0.19..

Fabio72

the command

pkg upgrade pfSense-upgrade

fixed for me

RonpfS

It's fine now now without any intervention ;D

I open the Dashboard then went to System Update

@/cf/conf/upgrade_log.txt:

Updating repositories metadata… done.
0.19 version of pfSense-upgrade is available

LOL Then a few minutes later going back to System Update I get : :o :o :o

I upgraded without issues to 2.3.3 last week, suddenly, yesterday, I started to see "The system is on a later version than
the official release." in the GUI.

I did not change or do anything since the upgrade so this is certainly coming from somewhere else.

Thanks.

cosmoxl

Same for me. This is what I see on the update page. 0.19??

pppfsense

Not sure if we now have an official solution to this, but, do we know why this happened?
(Just when I thought upgrade issues had been ironed-out…).

Thanks.
