[21.1)-dirty]

The upgrade did not come back and you forcefully restarted? At least the upgrade log simply stops without an error to find during os-vnstat reinstall. Will try to reproduce.


Cheers,

Yes. It took so long, that I restarted (semi forcefully: I pressed the power button, waited until power was off and then powered on again).

Maybe it helps if I show the output of uname:
FreeBSD OPNsense.schlattau.net 12.1-RELEASE-p12-HBSD FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p12-HBSD #0  3c6040c7243(stable/21.1)-dirty: Mon Jan 25 12:27:52 CET 2021     root@sensey:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/SMP  amd64

Thanks Franco

@franco: Thanks. See attached file.

I updated one box yesterday from GUI without problems. You could try from console...

Tried console too.
Won't work.

It's downloading packages, then rebooting and then nothing is happening (as far as I can tell).  :-\

Well I can't make the upgrade work.
It takes forever and when I give up and reboot the machine, it's untouched and still on 20.7.8_4.

When I go to the update page, I see this: (please see attachment)

Ideas?

Thanks for your post. I had already given up hope, having tried for 3 times to install the update only to power off and on manually after nothing had happened 10 minutes later. I always came back to 20.8.4, assuming somehting got stuck during the update. Running on an Intel Nuc 7th Gen i5.

Edit: Tried a 4th time but gave up after 45 minutes. Via physical power button the machine came off and on in a minute and is now still sitting at 20.7.8_4. I guess something IS stuck. Should probably not take so long on i5 CPU with NVME SSD and 16GB RAM.
Advise?
