Trouble creating jail - Jail version doesn't exist

[spiceygas]

Version: FreeNAS-11.3-U3.2 (Yes, I know it's old)

I'm looking to install a plugin. I got the error:

Install​

Error: 11.3-RELEASE was not found!

I then tried to create a jail manually, and sure enough, 11.3-RELEASE doesn't exist. The drop-down to select the release is blank. No options available.

I then looked at storage pools, and under iocage/releases I've got 11.4-RELEASE but not 1.3.

I tried

Code:

iocage fetch

, but 11.3-RELEASE isn't listed. Presumably, it's too old.

So that leaves me stuck. Any suggestions how I can get 11.3 back so that I can create a new jail?

===========
P.S. At some point in time it must have existed because I've got a couple jails on this box. Not sure when it disappeared.

11.3 is end-of-life. It's only available in the FreeBSD archive.

Error: 12.2-RELEASE was not found!

Hello! When installing any plugin from the Community collection, an error occurs: "Error: 12.2-RELEASE was not found!" Installing from the iXsystems collection is ok. What could be the problem?

I made some progress by finding it in the archive:

iocage fetch --root-dir /pub/FreeBSD-Archive/old-releases/amd64/ --server ftp-archive.freebsd.org

After running that, I tried to install a plugin and got further. This time I got a different error.

Error: plexmediaserver-plexpass had a failure Exception: RuntimeError Message: pkg error: - pkg-static: http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:11:amd64/latest/meta.txz: Not Found pkg-static: http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:11:amd64/latest/packagesite.txz: Not Found Please check your network Partial plugin destroyed

Is this fixable, or am I just stuck updating TrueNAS?

 

[Samuel Tai]

It's not fixable, because the FreeBSD 11 versions of packages aren't available anymore.

Ok. Thank you for your prompt responses and help.
