Issues going from 2.7.0 to 2.7.2 - ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libssl.so.30" not found, required by "pfSense-repoc"

I recently upgraded from 2.6.2 CE to 2.7.0 CE and everything seemed to go fine. After, I saw that there was another upgrade to go to 2.7.2. When I tried, I got the error below:

>>> Updating repositories metadata... 
Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue...
Fetching meta.conf: . done
Fetching packagesite.pkg: . done

pfSense repository update completed. 550 packages processed.
All repositories are up to date.
>>> Upgrading -upgrade... failed.

After doing a little research I tried some commands that I found on various other threads from people with similar issues but I believe I'm stuck now. I don't want to reboot in case it's not coming back up. The post I kept reading said to run "pfSense-repoc" and every time I do, I get the following error "ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libssl.so.30" not found, required by "pfSense-repoc""

Is there a fix for this or will this be a reinstall? Thanks!

It has pulled in some newer pkg. Run: pkg-static info -x pfsense and see what pkg versions you have.

You will likely have to force reinstall something. Try setting the pkg repo branch back to 2.7.0 and then run: pkg-static -d update
If that completes successfully then you can try force reinstalling. If it shows an error that may also help diagnose what's happening.

I'll switch the repo back to 2.7.0 later today and run that and see what happens.

Yup I would try force reinstalling pfSense-upgrade and pfSense-repo if access the 2.7.0 repo is successful.

@stephenw10 It appears that force reinstalling those three packages pkg, pfSense-repo, and pfSense-upgrade succeeded. Do I just reboot now and try switching the branch back to 2.7.2 and upgrade?

stephenw10

Rebooting doesn't hurt but you shouldn't need to. Just set the branch back to 2.7.2 and try to upgrade again.

@stephenw10 I tried the upgrade again, after switching the repo back to 2.7.2 and it failed again.

Ok try upgrading at the command line to get more output: pfSense-upgrade -d

And I mean at the real command line not the GUI command prompt.

Hmm, well if you are local then reinstalling 2.7.2 clean is probably going to be fastest.

But otherwise I'd try switch the branch back and force reinstalling again and then try running the upgrade from the command line against but this time against the 2.7.0 branch
It should complete and return you are already on the latest version without any errors.

I had the same issue. Went 2.7.0 first, then 2.7.2.
(Oops, the rest was lost)
I switched branches back and forth. Tried command line stuff as described on the upgrade help page - also on 2.7.0 branch. And at some point I was able to go to 2.7.2.
But I don't know what was the problem and I don't know what was the solution.
On another machine I just reinstalled with 2.7.2 because trying took too long.
