Invalid argument errors while trying to upgrade from 26.1.11 to 26.7

[Shad]

Hello guys,

Following the php2shell crisis, I tried to upgrade to 26.7.
For some reasons, I got the failed signature error while fetching the new packages.
I read that changing mirrors could help, but ended out with another error :

I then ran an health audit, and got this as a result :

AI tells me that there are .pkgtemp files that are locking the upgrade process and give me directions to follow, but I'd rather ask you guys before doing something stupid.

Any help would extremely valuable !

Hi,

First, back up your configuration.

Then, check disk/storage health:

-------------------------------------
df -h
dmesg | grep -iE 'ada0|error|fail|cam'
smartctl -a /dev/ada0
-------------------------------------

Reinstall only the two packages flagged by the health audit:

-----------------------------------------------------
pkg update
pkg install --force --reinstall boost-libs py313-botocore
---------------------------------------------------------

Retry the upgrade.

Afterwards, check:

--------------------------
opnsense-version
---------------------------

If it fails again, check:

-------------------------------------
smartctl -a /dev/ada0
dmesg | grep -iE 'ada0|error|fail|cam'
-------------------------------------
