Hi,
Just tried to do upgrade from 1.18.7_1 to 18.1.8, and upgrade is not successful. Packages are downloaded, but reboot did not happen. Then I manually rebooted the router, and I'm still on old version. If I initiate upgrade again..this is the output;
**GOT REQUEST TO UPGRADE: all***

Are you using the dns-root.de mirror? Try *any* other mirror.

hi franco, yes..that is the mirror and the problem :) thanks, now upgrade went fine.

I'll talk to the maintainer. Cloudflare has a serious problem of late. This was a clean update where nothing could have gone wrong. Thanks for letting us know!

While not an actual failure, since it seems to have upgraded after all, I did recieve the following error when updating from 18.1.7 -> 18.1.8
Installing kernel-18.1.8-amd64.txz... done
Installing base-18.1.8-amd64.txz..../net/: Can't restore time
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
failed
***DONE***
The system didn't reboot automatically after it was ***DONE*** so I had to initiate it manually, but it looks like everything is fine nonetheless. It does report ver. 18.1.8 after a reboot and as far as I can tell everything seems to be working. Any logs I should be looking at to try and find what exactly caused the error?
-
Aha, I remember this from a long time ago. We don't reboot to catch errors like this or when something goes really wrong. In this case, however, unpack keeps going until the end but "remembers" that it couldn't set a timestamp on a file or folder. Actually, I'm not sure why it does that.
But I agree that after the manual reboot this particular update was finished successfully.
Here comes the fun part. When you have a free moment to reboot go to System: Firmware: Packages and reinstall "base" package to see if you can reproduce the same error or if it just goes as expected again: update + reboot = done.
Thanks,
Franco

The error can indeed be reproduced by trying to reinstall the Base package, but since no other user has reported it I'll just file it under "weird things going on with my system" and do a fresh install at some point.

Since all of our ecosystem is open source, it's easy to find the one instance throwing the error:
https://github.com/opnsense/src/blob/master/contrib/libarchive/libarchive/archive_write_disk_posix.c#L3306-L3307
So something inside libarchive's set_time() is wrong, but the error is not very elaborate.
Not an expert on this, so it may be worth asking the libarchive developers what this could be. There's already an open ticket from 2016 but no troubleshooting yet. :)
