Dear list, as described in http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.3R/announce.html I tried a binary upgrade to 6.3R. But the command # sh freebsd-update.sh -f freebsd-update.conf -r 6.3-RELEASE upgrade failed with 10....2520....2530....2540....2550....2560....2570....2580....2590....2600....2610....2620....2630....2640... done. Applying patches... done. Fetching 1587 files... failed. Any ideas how to perform the upgrade? Best regards, Thomas.

If so, I'm willing to bet the failure is caused by the FTP server being overloaded. With the announcement of 7.0-RELEASE, people are hammering the server; the few times I've tried to FTP to it, it's been returning "maximum number of connections exceeded" or something along those lines. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.

I put a "set -x" in the freebsd-update.sh and it seems, that the script cannot fetch a file: + [ ! -f files/ffa603731bc5c7b80b37c580bb9aa11b0d12cfcabe5fccee7b7e8ded607be19a.gz ] + echo ffa603731bc5c7b80b37c580bb9aa11b0d12cfcabe5fccee7b7e8ded607be19a + read Y + [ -s filelist ] + wc -l + tr -d + echo -n Fetching 1587 Fetching 1587 + echo -n files... files... + lam -s 6.3-RELEASE/amd64/f/ - -s .gz + xargs /usr/libexec/phttpget update1.FreeBSD.org + read Y + [ -f 00021c52a9c8de69e0dd8a3cf7a9c9315518093293707420ccbc3ccc83e636cc.gz ] + echo failed. failed. + return 1 + return 1 + exit 1 Thomas.
