Cannot update pfSense-core repo catalogue
-
As of late I've been seeing no updates available, despite running 2.4.4-RELEASE-p2. Looking into this, I see no packages listed under Package Manager -> Available Packages.
Following some forum posts here and the docs, it seems I need to force update the repo data - however that is hanging indefinitely on 'Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue'
/usr/local/sbin/pkg-static -d update -f DBG(1)[98741]> pkg initialized Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue... DBG(1)[98741]> PkgRepo: verifying update for pfSense-core DBG(1)[98741]> PkgRepo: need forced update of pfSense-core DBG(1)[98741]> Pkgrepo, begin update of '/root/var/db/pkg/repo-pfSense-core.sqlite' DBG(1)[98741]> Fetch: fetching from: https://files00.netgate.com/pfSense_v2_4_5_amd64-core/meta.conf with opts "i" ^C
It will just hang forever at
Fetch
, and so does tryingcurl
manually from the router, however I can access and downloadmeta.conf
with no issues via a browser or curl from any other host. Trying to look into that, I find I am unable to even pingnetgate.com
from the router, but can successfully ping from any other host on the network.ping netgate.com PING netgate.com (208.123.73.73): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: No buffer space available ping: sendto: No buffer space available
I'm not sure where to look next at this point.

Bad route maybe?
Can pfSense itself access other sites directly? It's not showing a DNS error there.
