Post 2.7 upgrade from 2.6 No Pkg Mgr Access

dhenzler

I conducted a test today on another fresh pfSense installaton. I tested to ensure that Pkg Mgr was accessable, then upgraded to 2.7 following completion the Pkg Mgr was available. However after powering down and restarting (bare metal) install... the Pkg Mgr was not available. screen_shot . I assume that I am not alone in this problem. If someone has the solution, please come forward with it.

If you're on 2.7.0 you need to run certctl rehash in order to see pkgs after a reboot and upgrade to 2.7.2.

See: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/releases/2-7-1.html?highlight=certctl#troubleshooting

@stephenw10 Thank You, that worked !
One would think that that bit of code would be included in the update process...
I've done many tests on my experimental system, but it upgraded flawlessly to 2.7.2.

Now moving on to HAProxy and all of it's fun !
20 some odd sub-domains and websites to run. I need help !

Yup it's in the code now but it was not practically possible to retro-add it to 2.7.0 unfortunately.

@stephenw10 I appreciate that. You might consider making it easier to find this for others. I spent a few hours with this... frustrating!

Thanks for a great product !
