Cannot Upgrade to 19.1 from 18.7.10_4

[dp]

Okay, so prior to running the command you sent I had did a manual install of kernel from the GUI and it rolled the kernel back to 18.7. After running your command the firewall is now at 19.1 but the kernel and base are reporting 18.7. That is exactly opposite of what I had before.

Should I apply the updates of the base and kernel now or do you want/need any thing else before I do?

Attached are the screenshot of the update page after the command was run and the SSH log of the command being run.

Also the only added item was Sensei. Everything else was stock out of the box. I did a clean install, setup the interfaces and added Sensei. Nothing else added or installed that I can recall.

Yes, Sensei install can cause this. We'll work together with Sunnyvalley to avoid similar problems in the 19.7 upgrade.

Not sure how you got back on the base and kernel, but applying the updates is a good idea and the issue will be resolved.

Franco,

So I finally got back to this and after applying the updates all is well in OPNsense land.

As for reverting back it appeared that the update was stuck in a loop. The base and kernel would update but OPNsense would not. When the firewall would come back up after the update and check it would see the 18.7 as an update to 19.1 and then revert the kernel and base back to 18.7. Then after the reboot it would see the 19.1 as the update... rinse lather repeat......

Performing the update using the command you gave forced the 19.1 OPNsense to install on the 18.7 kernel and base and then after a reboot the kernel and base was seen as needing the update to 19.1 and applied as expected. I am now on 19.1.3. Hopefully you can find a fix. Now there is an in place workaround for those who do not want to reload the firewall from scratch or can't due to access restrictions.

Thanks,

Doug
