Description

I just upgraded from pfsense 2.5.2 to 2.6.0. Several packages did not auto upgrade (I don't know if they should have). But upon upgrading my packages, they all seemed to go well until I went to upgrade `openvpn-client-export`. It failed with the below output:

>>> Upgrading pfSense-pkg-openvpn-client-export...

The following 2 package(s) will be affected (of 0 checked):

So it seems it's failing to upgrade openvpn. I already had an openvpn group, as it notes. Maybe it is not using the correct group id in that case in the upgrade?

Thanks!

Something must have interrupted your upgrade process. The actual upgrade did not fully complete or your system couldn't have been in a state to produce the output you show.

Is it possible that the upgrade had issues due to the very thing I'm reporting? How can I troubleshoot this further? What might you need to see to determine if there is a preventable problem?

I have removed the `openvpn` group, and proceeded to reinstall this package. That succeeded.

I'm continuing to troubleshoot the rest of my upgrade to 2.6.0-- because I don't think it completely successfully.
