The upgrade was aborted due to an error.

Hi,

I've tried updating to 26.1 in the console.
After fetching the packages etc, I got the message: "The upgrade was aborted due to an error."
I am left in the dark here, because I don't know what the error is.

Console output:

Fetching packages-26.1-amd64.tar: ......................... done
Fetching base-26.1-amd64.txz: ...... done
Extracting packages-26.1-amd64.tar... done

Does this continue to happen if you try the upgrade again?

Yes, I've tried to update several times now. Also after a reboot, but no luck.
I am getting the same output in the console.

Ok, what happens if you run the cleanup manually in verbose mode?

# opnsense-update -VFs || echo "failed"

Then I get this:

# opnsense-update -VFs || echo "failed"
+ [ '' ]
+ [ -F ]
+ flush_temporary
+ find /usr/local/opnsense -type f -name '*.pyc' -delete
+ find /boot ! '(' -type d ')' -a '(' -name '*.pkgsave' -o -name '.pkgtemp.*' ')' -delete
+ find /boot -type d -name '.pkgtemp.*' -print0
+ xargs -0 -n1 rm -r
+ find /usr/libexec/bsdinstall ! '(' -type d ')' -a '(' -name '*.pkgsave' -o -name '.pkgtemp.*' ')' -delete
+ find /usr/libexec/bsdinstall -type d -name '.pkgtemp.*' -print0
+ xargs -0 -n1 rm -r
+ find /usr/local ! '(' -type d ')' -a '(' -name '*.pkgsave' -o -name '.pkgtemp.*' ')' -delete
+ find /usr/local -type d -name '.pkgtemp.*' -print0
+ xargs -0 -n1 rm -r
+ [ '' '=' -R ]
+ [ -n '' ]
+ [ -n '' ]
+ [ -n '' ]
+ [ ! -f /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/OPNsense.conf ]
+ [ -n '' ]

+ [ '' '=' -M ]
+ [ '' '=' -x ]
+ [ '' '=' -X ]
+ [ -n '' ]
+ [ -n '' ]
+ [ -n -s ]
+ exit 0

And when updating, the same error message.

Cheers, Eric

Ok that wasn't it.  Can you you run the pre-upgrade hooks from the shell?  Nothing will happen WRT upgrading but we'll hopefully see the error there.

# sh -x /usr/local/etc/rc.syshook upgrade


Thanks,
Franco
