Title: Automatic Firmware update does not work
Post by: Koda on June 21, 2024, 01:33:56 PM
My Current Version: OPNsense 24.1.8-amd64
The newest Version: 24.1.9

If I check fo rupdates in my GUI, I find the new packages.

But with a new inserted Cron for  Automatic Firewall Update does not install any updates
In the Backend Logs I see that the Cron was fired: Attempting automatic firmware update via cron

We will need more than what you offer here. So does it update when you let it via the GUI?

If it fails, then the automatic job would also fail. If not we will have to wait for 24.1.10 to try again. ;)


Cheers,

I'm experiencing the same issue while trying to perform an Automatic Firmware Update using cron via the GUI. There are no status updates, return codes, logs, or messages, nothing at all.

How am I supposed to diagnose the problem if there's no indication of whether cron is running or failing? 🤔

Has anyone found a way to get more visibility into cron execution for this task?

== resolved / workaround ==
I had the same problem.
In my case I went to System > Settings > General
I activated the option "Prefer to use IPv4 even if IPv6 is available"
then it worked fine.
I think it's a bug.
