Hello, I'm currently on TrueNAS 13.0-U5.1 and, as the title says, when I update to a newer version of ngnix the webserver stops working. I want to update because the version we're currently on pops on security scans with high vulnerabilities. I use pkg add at it works, but when I restart the NAS the network interfaces are no longer displayed on the login screen, I can't make calls to the api, and the web UI is not reachable. Has anyone else had this issue? If so how did you resolve?

I should add that when I run service nginx status it does return with a PID the service is running on so it does start.

You mean the nginx serving the TrueNAS WebGUI? Yeah, that's 100% not supported and the WebGUI is 100% not supposed to be exposed to the internet, so vulnerabilities in nginx are not likely to be too relevant.

I suspected as much.
