Ok: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/14137

The issue is that the custom repo data used to upgrade to Plus is not being removed as expected after upgrading.

Simply resaving the update branch to Latest Stable (23.01) in System > Update > Update Settings will allow packages to be seen correctly.

Removing the custom repo data manually will remove the Plus Upgrade message there.

@stephenw10 Thanks for the fix, done.

You can run it at the command line via the console or ssh. Or you can run in Diag > Command Prompt in the GUI.

rm: /usr/local/share/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-custom.*: No such file or directory

Already gone.
I do have a package listing and have installed what I wanted.
Thanks for the rapid diagnosis and solution.

Still no packages.

@tedquade Working for you, meaning you have a packages list and can install? Have you rebooted to make certain the fix survives?

No reason to think it doesn't, just checking.

tedquade

@g-hammer Yes, Yes and Yes (I'm a person of few words).

Still no packages.

Did you also resave the update repo settings?

Are you also seeing the 'Bad Request' error from pkg -d update?
There are other reasons you might not see packages. Bug #14137 only applies to recent upgrades from CE.

pkg -d update

Hi Stephen,

Yes, saved but I've no selections in update other than "Latest Stable Version (23.01)" . Saved and rebooted. Also tried "Disable the Dashboard auto-update check", saved and rebooted.
Yes, getting "bad request" from pkg -d update.
I did recently upgrade from latest version of CE.

Cheers!

@flatsphere

From the Dashboard go to:
System > Update > Update Settings then "Save"

Then Diagnostics > Command Prompt > Execute Shell Command then in Command enter the following:
rm /usr/local/share/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-custom.*

Then select Execute.

That is the sequence I followed and it worked for me.

I did that and received the "No such file or directory" message.

Thanks!

Send me your NDI and the output pkg -d update in chat and I'll check it.

Hi Stephen

I get the same error on my Netgate 6100 without upgrading from a CE

Did you resave the stable repo settings?

p1erre

@stephenw10 said in No available packages:

Did you resave the stable repo settings?

Yes I did. It also shows me the latest stable version 23.01

Current Base System23.01
Latest Base System23.01
StatusUp to date.

stephenw10

Send me your NDI in chat and I'll check it.

That error means it's trying to authenticate the repo using the wrong cert. Resaving the repo should set the correct line in the config file so it then uses the correct cert.

@p1erre You need to do the following in order to save as instructed by Steve:

System > Update > Update Settings > Save

This is what worked for me when I had similar issues to yours.

@tedquade Thanks Ted, but I already did it. Issue still there. I also did

mkdir /root/backup && cp -r /usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos /root/backup/ && rm -rf /usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos && pfSense-upgrade -c -d

as suggested in another thread. Still getting

pfSense-upgrade -c -d
