Forced pkg Reinstall

Troubleshooting UpgradesTroubleshooting

Forcing a reinstallation of all packages may resolve problems that otherwise may require a full reinstall. This is not ideal, as a clean install is more likely to have a positive result, but that is not always an option in every situation (e.g. remote install with no console access).

To forcefully reinstall all packages, take the following steps:

Clean the repository and forcefully reinstall pkg, repo data, and the upgrade script:

# pkg-static clean -ay; pkg-static install -fy pkg AZTCO-FW-repo AZTCO-FW-upgrade

Force a reinstall of everything:

# pkg-static upgrade -f

Review the list of changes and enter y to proceed

Manually reboot the firewall
