      hmmm - mine did all steps including 5/6 ok but has been sitting there saying "===> Removing static obsoleted files" for about an hour now. Came from 2.3.3.
      How long did it take in your cases until reboot? Are there any steps after deletion of obsolete file other than the reboot? Should I reboot?
      Previous updates went ok.
      Thx!

      (Nearly) the same for me. Coming from 2.3.3 the update is stuck at:

      
      ...
      [6/7] Extracting pfSense-base-2.3.3_1: ..... done
      ===> Keeping a copy of current version mtree
      ===> Removing schg flag from base files
      ===> Extracting new base tarball
      
      

      I don't dare to reboot the box  :-\

        Once again the GUI update worked but didn't quite show what was going on and there were misleading error messages. It outright flashed a "system update failed" message on the screen and only a part of the update log was shown in the log window, after the message that showed the system fetching a new kernel file there was nothing in the log window. The system rebooted on its own as expected and the update was successful in the end.

        This was my experience as well. First time I've ever had an issue updating via the GUI. I actually closed the GUI after I got the error and updated via the console. After a couple tried because of download timeouts it went through and updated.

            It worked out fine here but half way through the GUI was not showing any progress. I could see the nics shutdown and start again so I closed the browser and logged in again to a good update.

              Replying to myself: took the risk, rebooted the box after more than 3 hours. Seems to work. Fingers crossed  :P

                I figured the system had logged me out already on the webui, when I logged back in the system reported the p1 status in the dashboard (without reboot). I then rebooted just as a matter of caution and it's back like normal.
                Still weird.

                      Great - I know what it looks like when it's ok though and would be more interested to learn what went wrong…

                        Like I stated in my previous message,

                        Anyone know why the FreeBSD version is still p16 when the patch notes say it should be p17?

                        My system updated successfully as far as I know.

                        https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/2.3.3-p1_New_Features_and_Changes

                        See attached for a screenshot of the GUI.

                            Seems that it is on 10.3 p17 if you check via the console cmd.

                            So I'd assume the versioning on the GUI wasn't changed?

                            See attached.

                              Yeah, looks like you're right. I have P16 on GUI but console cmd check says P17. It's not a bug, it's a feature  :o

                                Shows P17 in the GUI here. Likely another symptom of the "package manager needs a brain transplant".

                                  Now, can someone tell me what's this?

                                  
                                  Configuring IPsec VPN... Mar 10 18:23:40 ipsec_starter[42810]: Starting weakSwan 5.5.1 IPsec [starter]...

                                    If the GUI shows p16 something must be cached by your browser or maybe it never rebooted after the update.

                                    The kernel version reported by uname wouldn't have anything to do with pkg, and should show the same anywhere.

                                    @doktornotor that IPsec error is harmless, strongSwan whines about that on FreeBSD because that check is Linux-y. https://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/1/wiki/FreeBSD#Known-Problems

                                      Had a successful update to 2.3.3_1 on my SG-4860, save one tiny glitch…  reporting here for FYI purposes only, not a bitch.
                                      all the ancillary packages packages restarted successfully this time too.

                                      My Dynamic DNS Status widget did show the cached IP not only as bad but had a : extension with an 8 digit port number.
                                      Going into the service and punching "Save & Request Update" resolved even this small issue.

                                        I had the exact same issue.  Waited move than an hour.  I figured I had accidentally canceled the web page or something…

                                        I did note that I had a kernel locked or something message prior to that.

                                        I rebooted and did the upgrade via the shell instead.  It did some updating and things appear good now.

                                        I hope future upgrades go smoother.....  not exactly confidence inspiring with a problematic upgrade.

                                          I did the upgrade through ssh using option 13. I only have a few packages so didn't have any issues. uname shows p17

                                            Yeah I figured it's some sort of logspam, thanks.
