@lansmurf said in Upgrade from 2.7.2 to 2.80 failed, unable to boot:

You are right it is an image file of the installer...

Ah, OK, thanks!

We were able to finally figure out all of the URLs that the pfSense box was sending requests too and we now have a working squid proxy.

Thank you.

@bmeeks said in php error with suricata after updating to 2.8:

Part of the install/update process for the package rebuilds the enabled rules.

Maybe to much rules too?

A possibility for sure, but the rules rebuild was apparently working under the previous pfSense version if I am understanding the OP correctly.

He also has pfBlockerNG installed and it will use a lot of PHP memory for some tasks.

@patient0 : Thanks !!

Well we should have new installer version available quite soon so you could try that on it.

You should really use: `setenv bootcmd 'setLED; run mmcboot;'

Otherwise you won't see the expected LED sequence at boot.Though it would still boot fine.

@dws I don't have a direct answer but if you spend much time on fixing it, it's probably easier to just format+reinstall and restore from backup (which can be done during the install).

Hmm, any errors show in the logs?

How were you connected to it during the setup?

Your NDI will have changed if you replaced the hardware. Send me your NDI and the order number in chat and I'll check it.

Post was deleted, I guess they solved the problem.

@stephenw10
Thanks for the guidance Stephen. I’ll give that a try.

Did you try installing FreeBSD 15 to check for some upstream issue?

Indeed, where is it failing for you? What hardware are you running on?

Yup a clean install and restore will always work. Having that prepared and available is always a good idea.

@Finger79 I reinstall from scratch using 2.8 after disabling WIFI in the BIOS. Hopefully the bug is fixed in the near future.

Yup that^. Enable the CE repos in the first install step.

Or if you send me your NDI in chat I can remove it from the list. That would be permanent though.

@Finger79 said in Is GELI FDE option not part of the Netgate Installer 1.0RC?:

Hope that helps. But yeah, in the future I'll also have more VPNs set up, and I'd like those private keys protected.

In a business or enterprise environment, there is much more robust physical security. In a residential setting with people who help themselves to my personal belongings (and then lie about it), my trust can't be that high, so I have to control the things within my control until I can move out to safer pastures.

OK, I understand. 👍 Sorry!

Ah, OK. It doesn't expose the boot partition via GEOM. That's why the script shows it can't find it.

OK lets see what we can do here....

I had the same issue with pfsense 2.7.0 not seeing any updates to 2.7.2 even if i double check the base version etc...

certificate rehash and update from shell seems to work.

i also had the bad gateway error, and the only workaround is to restart the system or reload web config from console.
