[SOLVED] Unable to Install or Upgrade Packages
-
Procedures worked. Commands were given via Putty ssh.
Must have been a complete update.
Whole process of updating (more than 300 packets) was visible in terminal and needed around 20 minutes.
Restarted system.
Everything seems to be ok now !
Updating of packets cannot be tested - because everything is up to date. ;-)
Than I testet installation of a new packet instead of. -> Worked well !Problem seems to be solved now - thanks Netgate team !!

Just got answer from Netgate:
"A fix for this issue is now available. Please run the following command from the console/ssh, then check for updates/packages.
pkg-static upgrade -fy pfSense-repoc"Procedures are just running over my 6100...
That fixed it for me as well - the errors are gone and I can now install packages as before. A big thank you to the Netgate team for a quick resolution to this issue.

@rcoleman-netgate
There is one question left after solving the issue (and system seems to work well again) - can you please help me ?The answer of the device to the command "pfSense-repoc -D" starts with a first line which confuses me:
pfSense-repoc: si_get_packages: failed to run the pkg info command: /usr/local/sbin/pkg-static info -R --raw-format json-compact pfSense-pkg-*
pfSense-repoc: no pfSense packages installed
OS: FreeBSD
OS Version: 14.0-CURRENT
Platform: amd64
Product: Netgate pfSense Plus
Version: 23.05-RELEASE
FS type: zfs
Language: de_DE
Model: Netgate 6100
...The answer of the comparable 4100 (which did not have the problem) does not include this first line. Rest of text looks similar.
Is this first line a hint to a left remain of the problem or can/should this be ignored ?

Just wanted to post as I ran into this issue today. I was able to fix this by submitting a TAC ticket with my NDI and SN. The team found a mismatch in their database to which they fixed, and I was able to update all my packages.
