Version 2.3.4 is available.

Jailer

No worries as a fresh install is trivial…..as long as you have a current config..... :o

@Jailer:

Why do I now have a Netgate Unique ID?

Yeah, same question here.

I've decided to try update to 2.3.5-DEVELOPMENT (amd64) , which worked just fine.

I did this to 'save' the config file before i do clean install.

A question ( if this can be answered ) , is it okay to save this config now, and restore it on 2.3.4 ?

I would say, at least for now, everything works just fine on 2.3.5 , i am not seeing any errors / problems.
(Should i even stay on development ?)

Thanks again

DNS issues here as well.

Cannot log in to GUI via FQDN

Let's Encrypt cert claiming to be a mismatch

Bit of a mess, I'd hold off on upgrading just yet.

Can't ping 8.8.8.8

Can't browse the web

One ios client has twitter working. That's about it.

Upgraded from 2.3.3-1 on a "Dell-PC" (2005 - my pfSense gateway/firewall since 2007) to 2.3.4.

Took 2 minutes : ;D
I'm posting here 'through' it right now.

2.3.4-RELEASE (amd64) 
 built on Wed May 03 15:13:29 CDT 2017 
 FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p19 

 The system is on the latest version.

Used packages : avahi - openvpn-client-export - acme** - nut.

** : Let's Encrypts certificates were already ok, no need to redo anything (see Changelog)

Went very smoothly. Following advice from here I always do a full backup of my config.

I upgraded three units this morning (Lanner FW-7525, pfSense SG-2440, Qotom Q355G4) from version 2.3.3-P1 to 2.3.4 without any problems. Everything is running fine, thanks to the pfSense developers!

The Netgate Unique ID and other details are explained on the blog ( https://www.netgate.com/blog/pfsense-2-3-4-release-now-available.html ) and the release notes ( https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/2.3.4_New_Features_and_Changes )

Update when fine, but now cannot login to the GUI I get "504 Gateway Time-out" after I put in my credential in the login page. Ran the script to update the web gui certificate from the console and still cannot login.

Is there a fix to this issue?

Thanks

jimp

That is not a known issue or one anyone has encountered during release testing. Please start a new thread for assistance.

Well I've tried to upgrade a couple of test boxes here and they are all getting time outs. Must be to many people hitting that upgrade button :P

That's entirely possible. Give it a bit and try again. :-)

For me the new update does not appear. I also tried via shell.

My update to 2.3.4 went smoothly. Everything seems to be working. Thanks for the good work.

kpa

I used the console update (option 13) this time and everything went fine.

@kpa:

I used the console update (option 13) this time and everything went fine.

I always use console and a reboot beforehand to be sure there is not some issue lurking to manifest itself at the most inopportune time and to create a demarcation point before the upgrade. i.e. it booted fine before the upgrade, so any issue is likely to be upgrade related as apposed to something else going wrong. That's nice to know when troubleshooting.

NOYB

The biggest issue I seem to have with upgrades is the extractions are taking forever. We'll maybe not quite forever but a really long time. Like about an hour. A few individual ones take probably 10 to 15 minutes.

Pretty sure that's not normal.

Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz
2 GB RAM
Full install on USB 2 flash drive (idle, so don't think that is the cause)

kpa

For me it took couple of minutes. I have a rather old but still quite fast 30GB SSD on my system. I would guess your issue is the USB drive.

But it is idle when this is going on. Just occasional activity.
