      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.

        @AWeidner:

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

        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.

                  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]...

                            (IPsec does actually work, though seeing similar WTF in console output is not exactly what one would expect.)

                              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 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

                                        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.

                                        Ok to recap: I had not cancelled the WebUI updater, anyway it sat there at the above cleaning status and never rebooted. Upon manual reboot I was at 2.3.3_1 BUT p16.

                                        Solved: Update via console (ssh) option 13). Kernel package was not updated apparently due to locked kernel. It updated via the console and rebooted to p17. WebUI now shows p17 as well.

                                        I would assume that everybody seeing p16 in the WebUI has the locked kernel update issue, so go update via console/ssh to solve this.

                                        Re-reading my upgrade page that I quoted earlier, it contains this line:```
                                        pfSense-kernel-pfSense-2.3.3 is locked and may not be modified

                                        
                                        No idea what locked the kernel… will probably do updates through the console in future.

                                          The kernel package is locked normally on purpose (and only unlocked on upgrades). Dunno what makes the package manager think it's missing, it sure like hell wouldn't boot without kernel. Sigh…
