Empy update and other selection lists

[cybermaus]

I recently updated replaced my V16 by V18.7.3 by making a clean install

Mostly it seems to work, except I have some weirdness in some screens
The install and config actually was uneventfull. Downloaded vga image, made USB using dd tool, ran the install. Nothing special happened

Also setup up interfaces and making the network work is OK. It is actually working.
But ....

In several windows I have empty selections. Like traffic shaping, I cannot select a metric, it is am empty choice list, so I cannot make a pipe

Same for the update window. It is hanging in a 'checking please wait', and shows no versions, not even the installed base version. But also the repository lists (updates, packages, settings) are empty and cannot have anything added.

Also, there seems to be a PHP error constantly reported.


Any suggestions? (other then reinstalling from scratch again....)
Thanks!

I ran an update from the console menu (option 12)

Which seem to have both brought me to 18.7.9 and also solved the empty update/plugin/settings panels
So some improvement

But the traffic shaper metric is still blank. And the "checking , please wait (for update)" is also still never completing. So still not quite OK

Hmm seems to solve it: using Edge instead of Chome seems to solve all issues?

I though Chrome was the standard nowadays, did not even MS announced Edge will use Chromium engine in the near future?
