22.05-RELEASE (amd64) Unable to check for updates?
-
On my Dashboard under System info, Version, I've been getting 'Unable to check for updates'.
On attempting System | Update Firefox reports "504 Gateway Time-out."
I don't know if it's related but I'm also getting a notice: An error occurred while uploading the encrypted configuration to https://acb.netgate.com/save ( Unable to resolve acb.netgate.com )

Sounds like a DNS problem. Try Diag > DNS Lookup for firmware.netgate.com. Make sure all the configured DNS servers are responding.

@stephenw10 I just rebooted my pfSense SBC and now pfSense says I'm on the latest version, and I see a number of updates in my installed packages. Go figure! :-)
-
@tac57 TBH that sounds a bit like it was in the process of installing? If you run into further issues it might be an incomplete install if you booted in the middle, meaning a reinstall might be necessary.
To clarify, were you upgrading to 22.05 or from 22.05 to the dev version?

Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. If yours is older, select it in System/Update/Update Settings.
When upgrading, let it finish. Allow 10 minutes, or more depending on packages and device speed. -
@steveits Now in the process of updating pfBlockerNG-devel it's been fetching the pkg for 15 minutes and the red bar above the package reinstallation bar hasn't moved a bit.
I wasn't updating 22.05, it just said it was unable to check.

Hmm, 15mins is far longer than I'd expect for any package. Unless your WAN is very slow.
I would check the system logs if it's still doing it.
