Title: Solved - Trying to upgrade - Error Mirror read failed
Post by: jackiebrown on February 07, 2024, 02:44:21 PM
I've been trying to upgrade for a few days now. For a while, i was getting "release opnsens not found on mirror" or something very similair.

This would go away if I changed to development but the upgrade would fail with pkg errors.

Now, no matter what mirror or verison I choose, i get
"Mirror Read Failed."

I have tried updating on the gui and shell. Any ideas where to look to fix this?

I have a lot of plug ins that say missing as well which may be the cause of the orginal pkg errors.

The mirror is blank in the status page under firmware no mater what i change it to.

I am assuming the repo it's using is at /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/OPNsense.conf

That's from googling. I am used to debians /etc/apt.

In the file, the url shows url://file///var/cache/opnsense-update/.sets.pending/packages-24.1

Changing the mirror using the web gui doesn't seem to change anything here.

I also tried opnsense-bootstrap
It downlaods but then tells me "pkg already bootstrapped at /usr/local/sbin/pkg" and then does nothing

Googling that error helped

This fixed it for me

pkg-static install pkg
fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/opnsense/update/master/src/bootstrap/opnsense-bootstrap.sh.in
sh ./opnsense-bootstrap.sh.in -r 24.1

Not sure if I needed the one in git but wanted to make sure I had the newest.
