      Hello everyone,

      Today I tried to update from 2.3 to 2.3.2 via the web GUI, which resulted in the following error:

      
      >>> Updating repositories metadata... 
      Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue...
      pfSense-core repository is up-to-date.
      Updating pfSense repository catalogue...
      pfSense repository is up-to-date.
      All repositories are up-to-date.
      >>> Upgrading pkg... failed.
      Failed
      
      

      Then I used ssh to run the following command: pkg upgrade, which resulted in this (attached as screenshot).

      Please let me know if there is a solution.

      Thank you.

      PS:
      I'm using the RELEASE stable branch.

        What do you get on the command line if you enter:
        drill pkg.pfsense.org

        ??

        What about:

        cd /root
        curl -O http://pkg.pfsense.org/pfSense_v2_3_0_amd64-pfSense_v2_3_0/All/pkg-1.8.7.txz

        ??

          Run on console:

          pfSense-upgrade -d
          

          And paste any messages here.

            drill pkg.pfsense.org returns the ip address: 162.208.119.39

            curl downloaded the file without a problem (!? weird…)

            pfSense-upgrade redownloaded the meta data from the repo, reported that pkg: 1.6.2 -> 1.8.7 [pfSense] is to be upgraded and then came up with "Not Found", similar result to running "pkg upgrade"

            weird, why did curl work but not pkg?

                That is nanobsd-only and presents differently.

                  SOLVED!

                  My Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) forced me to run the "pfSense-upgrade -d" command about 10+ times and then out of the blue the update started to download, no more "Not Found" errors….

                  weird eh?

                  Maybe a reverse proxy wasn't updated with the latest files? network error? who knows...
