Hello,
I updated to full 2.0-RELEASE i386 yesterday.  Since the if I go to the auto updater page I get this:

Code:
Downloading new version information...done
Unable to check for updates.
Could not contact pfSense update server http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD_RELENG_8_1/i386/pfSense_RELENG_2_0/.updaters/

My updater settings shows pfSense Stable Release Upgrades (i386) set to http://updates.pfsense.org/_updaters

What is wrong to be causing this?  I don't need the auto updater really, but it is convenient.

Thanks, apparently that worked.  Just went to update settings selected the (i386) update server and clicked save.

Could someone clarify what this means? I just did a fresh install of PFSense 2.0 and am having the same exact error as the first post. However, when I go to Updater Settings, there is no "pick list" as mentioned above (and it takes forever to load). I just have a place to type in a URL, but I'm not sure what server to use.

If the snapshot server is offline, is there a reason the 2.0 image from a week ago was still pointing to it?

Thanks!

files.pfsense.org is offline for some reason, try again later.

Is this working yet?  Unable to install squid - unable to connect?

I think you answered your own question. :-)

It's still offline.

Yes, it would. There isn't one, however. Not yet.

I'm still not sure this answers my question.. Should I just change PFSense's default update URL from "snapshot" to "files"?

Thanks,

I don't think it will help, they all seem to be down for me (updates, snapshots, and files)

I wasn't actually posting to this thread from back in October about it being down, btw Smiley I'm in no hurry. I was just curious why for the past months my update screen showed "failed." And from responses I'm guessing I need to change from "snapshots" to "files" and it will fix it when things come back up. If someone could give me confirmation on that, that would be great.

Thanks!
