Hi!

My boxes all runing the recently lastest OPNsense 17.7.7_1-amd64 version.
Today i see there is a new update availabe 17.7.8.
In the firmware upgrade page i see the new version but the changelog popup not showing unless i check that by hand, and cannot offered the upgrade. Just say my version is the latest. It is the same on the console too.
Console upgrade said im in the latest version.
All my box do the same.
This is just me or somebody else experienced this issue too?

It takes a bit for the mirror to sync, that's all. :)


Cheers,

Also, if you've 'tested' the newer kernel via console commands as instructed in the '18.1 Call for Testing' thread you'll need to either uninstall by the commands listed in the thread or if you update the kernel and base will not upgrade because of the lock. (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=6257.0)

SSH'ing in and issuing the console commands afterwards and performing the manual update will install the kernel and base for 17.7.8. Reboot after. From the link above:

Should there be any need to switch back to 11.0 / 17.7 you can run the following to revert your system:

# opnsense-update -U
# opnsense-update -bkd
# /usr/local/etc/rc.reboot
overkill: Dell SFF i5, 16gb, 120gb SSD, 4x gb NICs
OPNsense 21.1.x

Yup, thanks for mentioning this. I don't know if we will update the BETA kernel at this point or wait for RC.
