2.4.4 P3 Unable to retrieve package information. Fix without reinstall?
-
So this seems to be a fairly common problem however the normal suggestions to fix haven't worked for me so far. I know I could restore a backup to a fresh install but that would mean a long journey and downtime I'd rather avoid.
Shell Output - pkg update -f:
Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue... pkg: repository meta /var/db/pkg/pfSense-core.meta has wrong version 2 pkg: Repository pfSense-core load error: meta cannot be loaded No error: 0 Fetching meta.txz: . done pkg: repository meta /var/db/pkg/pfSense-core.meta has wrong version 2 repository pfSense-core has no meta file, using default settings Fetching packagesite.txz: . done pkg: repository meta /var/db/pkg/pfSense-core.meta has wrong version 2 pkg: Repository pfSense-core load error: meta cannot be loaded No error: 0 Unable to open created repository pfSense-core Unable to update repository pfSense-core Updating pfSense repository catalogue... pkg: repository meta /var/db/pkg/pfSense.meta has wrong version 2 pkg: Repository pfSense load error: meta cannot be loaded No error: 0 Fetching meta.txz: . done pkg: repository meta /var/db/pkg/pfSense.meta has wrong version 2 repository pfSense has no meta file, using default settings Fetching packagesite.txz: .......... done pkg: repository meta /var/db/pkg/pfSense.meta has wrong version 2 pkg: Repository pfSense load error: meta cannot be loaded No error: 0 Unable to open created repository pfSense Unable to update repository pfSense Error updating repositories!
Whichever branch I select in system update all I get is the picture below:
Apologies if this is a lost cause but any help would be greately appreciated.
