      Go to System > Boot Environments and see what is shown. A new BE is created at upgrade and that is updated. If it failed during that process it may not have caused a problem for the running BE.

      Try running: pkg-static update

      If that completes without error then just try upgrading again but from the command line to get more error output.

        @stephenw10 Ok, it doesn't appear that a new Boot Environment was created.

        I tired running the pkg-static update and the terminal just shows the current boot environment and the next boot environment which are the same. It's the same as in the System > Boot Environments.

        pfsense-upgrade-d didn't do anything. The terminal just gave the same as above.

          pfsense-upgrade-d

          It's: pfSense-upgrade -d

                  @stephenw10 The upgrade is definitely offered. I may have to do a forced package reinstall.

                          Ok you can see it's creating a new BE for 23.04 each time you try to upgrade. It's probably booting into that but fails to boot fully for some reason so it's reverting to the old BE. You should be able to see that happening at the con sole though?

                          @newUser2pfSense said in 24.03 upgrade: efibootmgr fails:

                          pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package
                          pkg-static: An error occured while fetching package

                          Errors like that are something we can work with. That should have shown when you ran pkg-static -d update though. And that should give more debug output showing why it's unable to fetch those packages.

                          If you run those commands vi aSSH you can just copy/paste the output.

                            @stephenw10 Well, to fix the issue, I was lucky I made a backup before attempting to update. I ended up downloading the new 2.7.2 CE ISO with my MacBook Pro through my iPhone hotspot, checked the checksum, and burned the ISO to disk. I wiped the SSD on my computer that pfSense was installed on. I then installed a fresh/clean pfSense 2.7.2 CE. I restored the backup. I updated pfSense to 24.03. All is good now. Wheeeew!
