check_upgrade: "Updating repositories metadata" returned error code 1

Hmm, curious...

Same problem here:
PC Engines APU2 Platform ("apu4" model)
Netgate Device ID: 97372676272a13e1bf6fEverything else seems to be working OK. This system has no packages installed and the WAN is using 100 megabit PPPoE.

Also, if I set "Disable the dashboard auto-update check", the error does not appear again even after a reboot and I can manually check for an update and still no error so It might be a timing issue during boot-up.

Yes, it certainly seems like a race condition with the initial upgrade check. But there must be something additional in play to trigger it. I still can't replicate it here....
-
@stephenw10 ~ I think it will start again if I re-enable "dashboard auto-update check" and I could give you access to the firewall if that would help your troubleshooting.

I think we're going to need to replicate it locally but if I can't that could be helpful.
-
@stephenw10 ~ The one I'm seeing this problem on is my one and only PC Engines APU2 Platform ("apu4" model) so it doesn't have much for CPU power and my "Branch" has always been correctly populated. Also, My WAN is PPPoE and I have the new PPPoE service enabled.

I would like to add I am having the same problem after upgrading from 2.7.2 to 2.8.0. The only packages that I had installed were Wireguard and the system patches. Packages were uninstalled then updated. As with the others, the message only shows up again after a reboot.
Running bare metal on a
Dell Wyze 5070 Extended
Intel(R) Pentium(R) Silver J5005 CPU @ 1.50GHz
Current: 1500 MHz, Max: 1501 MHz
4 CPUs : 1 package(s) x 4 core(s)
AES-NI CPU Crypto: Yes (active)
QAT Crypto: No4 GB DDR4
250GB M.2 SATA used for pfSense
(Internal eMMC not used)Intel I350-T2 Network card
Very basic configuration (no vlans) with no wireguard at the moment (Did not restore my configuration file yet).
Had no issues running 2.7.2
-
Also using a pppoe WAN?
And I assume, like the others here, you can still access the repos after boot?
-
WAN - DHCP
I also noticed the first 3-4 minutes of a reboot the CPU usage is very high at 27-37% then settles down to 2-5% (typical for 2.7.2) then the message pops up. I don't remember that high of a CPU usage with 2.7.2 during the first few minutes, but to be fair I did not reboot much.
I do have "Current Stable Version (2.8.0)" in the Branch dropdown box.

I've seen this error now on multiple PC Engines APU2 Platforms but not on any of my other platforms.

I mean, for example, if you go to the package manager can you see the list of available packages? The requires querying the configured repos which would fail if it could access them.
-
I have no problems showing or searching for available packages on the firewall that displays this error.

I can access the available packages and install with no issues. Installed Wireguard and System_Patches no problem.
