Issues upgrading to 2.4.4_3

  • M

    Hi

    I tried upgrading 2.4.4_2 to the latest stable via the UI but it failed twice, with

    pkg-static: https://pkg.pfsense.org/pfSense_v2_4_4_amd64-core/All/pfSense-kernel-pfSense-2.4.4_3.txz: Operation timed out
    Failed

    I note it said :
    Number of packages to be upgraded: 13

    The process will require 6 MiB more space.

    But there is plenty of space according to the dashboard.

    Disk usage:
    /
    8% of 13GiB - ufs
    /var/run
    3% of 3.4MiB - ufs in RAM

    After reading https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/install/upgrade-troubleshooting.html I changed the branch to be nightly, then back again to stable.

    This time the upgrade seemed to work, but on rebooting the dashboard says:

    Version 2.4.4-RELEASE-p2 (amd64)
    built on Wed May 15 18:53:44 EDT 2019
    FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p10

    Version 2.4.4_3 is available.
    Version information updated at Fri Jun 14 10:53:22 BST 2019

    But on the Update page it says:

    Current Base System
    2.4.4_3
    Latest Base System
    2.4.4_3
    Status
    Up to date.

    Confused!
    Any ideas?

    Worst case take a Backup and clean reinstall 2.4.4-p3 with the Recover config.xml Option: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/backup/automatically-restore-during-install.html
