Hello,
recently I update my opnsense to 21.7.8, it semm all is ok, but not :
The base package and kernel still remain to 21.7.6.
I try to re-install base package and I obtain :
***GOT REQUEST TO REINSTALL***
Fetching base-21.7.8-amd64.txz: ............................... failed, no signature found
***DONE***

/tmp is anougth big and have more than 3G of free space.
If I try to download the file manually, all is OK, the fole can be downloaded. But when I start the reinstall from GUI it will be quick and the temporary directory in /var/cache/opnsense-update/XXX/ still empty

is it possible to re-install manually the package ? (I have the same problem with kernel package)

Also when I try to update I got :

Try an anoyher mirror, and do /usr/local/opnsense/scripts/firmware/connection.sh until no problems and especially some mirror with IPv6 enabled but no service ...
Found one with only IPv4 and all be ok  now :)

I am experiencing the same problem.

I tried to update from 21.7.7 to 21.7.8 -- clicked update, went away from the computer for a long time because I knew it had to do a reboot and that takes time.

Got back, had to log in - saw on the front page that the version was
* Versions   OPNsense 21.7.8-amd64
and thought everything was OK

Installed the Realtek plugin for my Realtek NIC -- and then I tried to update to 22.1 via "Click to check for updates"; however; checking for updates I saw the firmware and the kernel was not upgraded and was waiting for 21.7.8.

Now it is just stuck on

Although I am not exactly sure what the problem is; probably the default mirror? Because internet works just fine? The default mirror stated on the System > Firmware > Status page was
* "Mirror   https://pkg.opnsense.org/FreeBSD:13:amd64/22.1"

For anyone coming here, go to System > Firmware > Settings to change the Firmware Mirror setting. I have changed the mirror, did a reboot, and then I was able to upgrade to 21.7.8 prior to upgrading to 22.1

Running OPNsense through Proxmox
4 x Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz (1 Socket)
24 GB RAM

Not seeing a health audit, impossible to tell otherwise.
