[pfSense Support] upgrade failure from Beta2 to Beta3
I am playing with 2.0 Beta and saw Beta3 was availible. I am running the nanobsd version on a Soekris Net4801 on a 2g SanDisk CF card. The orginal load was by putting the Beta2 image on the CF card with dd. I downloaded the latest snapshot of Beta3 and tried to upload via a browser the new version for upgrading, but it failed with the following: Jun 30 08:52:39 proxy php: : New alert found: Upgrade failed due to the upgrade image being larger than the partition that is configured on disk. Halting. Size on disk: 219 Size of new image: 488 Is removing the CF card and using DD again, my only option now?

Often this error is because the wrong size upgrade image is used, or a full image is being uploaded instead of an upgrade image.

But why would I look in the upgrade directory on the download site when I had downloaded the nanobsd version from the nanobsd directory? There are no upgrade images in the nanobsd directory, you have to go into the upgrade directory to find them. Nothing noted that I could find in the download area about using an upgrade image or on the page that directed me to the download page for the 2.0 beta or on the user interface in pfSense where you upload the img.gz file toGRIN!

There are no upgrade images in the nanobsd directory, you have to go into the upgrade directory to find them. Your question, although valid, becomes to a degree less relevant when you realise that newer nanobsd images now have a functioning auto-upgrade feature, so you can upgrade from the web UI without having to know which is the correct directory or image on the snapshot server. db - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
