Hi Fracno,
it does shows up now but i cannot seem to install it.

is this going to be possible later on ?

PS : i just changed from Dev to production

edit :
using the ssh
# opnsense-update -t opnsense-devel
updated the opnsense

OPNsense 18.7.r_10-amd64
FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p11
OpenSSL 1.0.2o 27 Mar 2018
thank you

[franco]

Production only updates to production, 18.7-RC1 is not yet production technically until it is named 18.7. :)

How do we update the dev version to the rc1?  The normal opnsense command or is there a special command that we have to run?

[franco]

On dev, reload system: firmware: updates, check for updates... there's a new "unlock upgrade" "upgrade now" combo. Or from the console menu option 12, type "18.7.r1" and hit enter.

When I hit check for Updates I get the following...
An API exception occured
Error at /usr/local/opnsense/mvc/app/controllers/OPNsense/Core/Api/FirmwareController.php:92 - A non-numeric value encountered (errno=2)

[cguilford]

if I try to upgrade from Console I get an error..

missing origin.conf
A firmware upate is currently in progress.

[franco]

You seem to be between versions for some reason.

# opnsense-revert opnsense-devel opnsense-update
# pkg query %n-%v opnsense-devel opnsense-update

origin.conf was replaced by OPNsense.conf, but opnsense-update was adapted for this reason....

[cguilford]

this is what I get with those commands.

root@DIGIsense:/home/itcguilf # opnsense-revert opnsense-devel opnsense-update
root@DIGIsense:/home/itcguilf # pkg query %n-%v opnsense-devel opnsense-update
opnsense-devel-18.7.r_60
opnsense-update-18.1.8

[cguilford]

Do I need to reboot after these commands, I'm still running into the same issue?

[franco]

opnsense-devel is ok, opnsense-update is very bad... you would be supposed to be on 18.1.11... it doesn't revert to the correct one? Did you lock it maybe?

# pkg update -f && pkg rquery %v opnsense-update
# pkg upgrade opnsense-update

[cguilford]

That's better I now have
root@DIGIsense:~ # pkg query %n-%v opnsense-devel opnsense-update
opnsense-devel-18.7.r_60
opnsense-update-18.1.11

[franco]

Splendid, upgrade should work now  8)

[cguilford]

And now I'm able to upgrade!  Woohoo thanks franco that seems to have fixed it, not sure what happened?
