Packages list is empy
-
@gertjan ok, so I don't remove the ftp_client_proxy package beforehand.
Tonight I'll update pfsense to version 4.5 and check the problem about list package.
Thanks. -
I tried upgrade to 2.5 but after 10 hours of waiting nothing happens and there is only the writing:
Please wait while the update system initializes -
Probably because :
@sasa1 said in Packages list is empy:
if I try to search for any package I can't find it.
You can't - because pfSense can't.
This covers 99,9 % of all the solution : https://www.netgate.com/blog/pfsense-2-4-5-release-p1-now-available.html

@gertjan so i have to try to upgrade from "2.4.4-RELEASE-p2" to "2.4.5 p1" first ?
-
Or directly to 2.5.0.
-
@gertjan as written in the previous post yesterday I tried to update to 2.5 but after many hours the update is not done and only the writing remains:
Please wait while the update system initializes -
Wait ....
It's a vm.Crate another vm - use a clean 2.5.0 install media - done ;)
Be careful while importing your config.
pfSense not being able to connect to the net and check for updates or package updates means something is wrong.As you will see, with everything default, this will work.

@gertjan I copied the vm called pfsense2 but on this pfsense, when I try to update the pfsense version, pfsense doesn't see an updated version (neither 2.4.5_1 nor 2.5).

Great : you copied the system.
And the copy worked : you have the same issue.
Because the system is identical.Your efforts were not completely useless : go to the console access and reset to default.
During initial console setup only accept the default (ok to change the password).
Now, it works.@gertjan said in Packages list is empy:
Create another vm - use a clean 2.5.0 install media - done ;)
Means : download clean fresh copy from https://www.pfsense.org/download/
Do not change settings.
It works.This will bring you closer to the final issue : your settings.
Btw : I presume your are not filtered upstream.

I did the upgade to version 2.4.5_1 and I had no problems (unlike the update to version 2.5 which did not work), after this update I see all the additional packages.
thanks.
