2.4.4-p3 to 2.4.5 slow upgrade [Solved]
-
Are there any issues today with the upgrade/package servers? I'm getting the "Please wait while the update system initializes" and just stays there most of the time. I had one instance where it got past that but then downloading of the packages was very slow. And one instance where it all worked just fine. I'm waiting/stuck with upgrading 2 nodes (1 worked).

Solved.
This post was spot on https://forum.netgate.com/topic/119298/please-wait-while-the-update-system-initializes/3
Turned off IPv6 and it solved the issue.
I suspected it could be IPv6 because that one box initially that worked didn't have IPv6 enabled.
-
Also, IPv6 configuration was being blocked upstream on my side. Once I opened IPv6 traffic then I could upgrade without disabling IPv6. So looks great, the issue was totally on my side.
-
Only suggestion during the upgrade process would be that if it can't get an IPv6 connection then to try IPv4.

I have had 2 upgrade from 2.4.4.x to 2.4.5 with no issues, then I tried one of my HA clusters and it will not upgrade. I get the package errors.
Thanks,
Joe
