      Check what the mount options are used for the root filesystem on your installation. If it's not using soft-updates the write performance will be absolutely terrible on USB memory.

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

        I just used the web gui to update my apu2c4 from 2.3.3_1 and everything went fine. I just need to copy the custom amd cpu temperature kernel modul (amdtemp.ko) to /boot/kernel. After reloading the module (or rebooting the system) the temperatures are reported again.

          Just updated 2.3.2_1 through the GUI and it said it was going to update to 2.3.3_1 but updated to 2.3.4 instead.

          Once it finished, OpenBGP kept restarting every 90 seconds or so.

          While looking at the logs I noticed that there were also entries saying that vmWare tools was not running.

          Had to reinstall both packages.

            Hello,

            After upgrade to 2.3.4 it shows

            Version 2.3.4-RELEASE (i386)
                            built on Wed May 03 15:22:11 CDT 2017
                            FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p16

            The system is on the latest version.

            Platform nanobsd (2g)

            Everything is working fine, but why is -p16 and not -p19?
            How to update the version of FreeBSD?

            Tnx

                I did everything as well in https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=129998.0 with the same result that is unsuccessfully.

                Thx

                  Yeah, I'm pointing out that there's an already existing thread about the issue, no need to duplicate it.

                    I just did the update and it went fine. Only took a couple of minutes but I do have an old Dell desktop with a 50GB HDD and an AMD Athlon 2 x2 B22 with 8GB of ram which is super overkill for what I need it for. It did scare me by retrying to load the interface 4 times at the end of the update but it worked out. I did notice that the processor was running hotter than normal by about 10C but it seems to have calmed down now.

                    I'm more annoyed that my 35 day uptime streak got broken  ;D >:( ::)

                        Hi,

                        Upgaded yesterday. pfSense SG-4860, pfBlockerNG and Snort. Mostly just simple setup.

                        I had no problems, thanks for developers!

                          Success! SG-4860 upgraded just fine. Reboot took several minutes longer than usual, which of course is normal for an upgrade, but always a bit of a sweat.

                          Also ran
                          pfSsh.php playback generateguicert
                          from the shell to generate a new certificate for that Chrome issue, thanks for putting that in the release notes.

                            For some reason the update still isn't showing for me?

                            I tried rebooting too, no change. Going to the update page too, also doesn't see anything new. ideas?

                              A little surprised by the device "/dev/ufsid/570dcd05b61eb735".  Was expecting something like "/dev/da0s1a".

                              Looks like it is mounted with journaled soft-updates.
                              "FreeBSD 9.0 introduced a journaling supplement to soft updates…"
                              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_updates
                              https://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.0R/relnotes-detailed.html#FS

                              Don't recall the version at which updates started taking a long time but it very well may have been around the time of leaving FreeBSD 8.x.
                              Could the journaling supplement to soft updates cause write performance issues for USB flash drives?  It's unclear to me.

                                Could a moderator please split this vein out to be it's own thread.  Thanks.

                                  Took the plunge and updated from the last 2.3.3_p1.  Worked great, everything came back up don't see any issues so far.

                                    I have just upgraded from 2.3.3-p1 to 2.3.4. This time I used the webGUI. The system runs without issues so far.

                                    I use an APU1D4 with a full installation of pfSense on an mSATA. My installation uses the NUT package which "survived" the upgrade without the need of reinstallation or reconfiguration - great.

                                      Hi All,

                                      I have issues with update from 2.3.3-RELEASE-p1 to 2.3.4.

                                        I have two machines that I updated remotely that are no longer available via openvpn, although they are up and pingable.  I use a TAP UDP configuration, and both machines are awake, but fail TLS negotiation.  I am using the current Tunnelblick beta.

                                        The relevant error from Tunnelblick reads:

                                        2017-05-07 08:22:20 TLS Error: TLS key negotiation failed to occur within 60 seconds (check your network connectivity)

                                          Maybe your clients use outdated TLS version or the configuration of the server and clients differs.

                                            Upgraded my main and backup pfsense under ESXi.
                                            Quicker and smoother than previous times.

                                            Good job pfSense Team!
