Solved pkg in iocage jail does not find packages known to exit

Caused by a forgotten modification to /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf.

This oddity showed up while I was trying to set up a jail as development sandbox. The jail's host is vhost01.

Code: 
[root@vhost01 ~ (master)]# freebsd-version
12.1-RELEASE-p12
[root@vhost01 ~ (master)]# pkg upgrade
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...

     4  192.168.18.124  sshpipe3.hamilton.harte-lyne. /zroot/iocage/jails/sshpipe3/root


But inside the jail most of the openjdk packages are not found:

Code: 
[root@sshpipe3 ~]# freebsd-version

[root@sshpipe3 ~]# pkg info -x openjdk
pkg: No package(s) matching openjdk

Why is this?
 
try pkg update -f on host and jail and if you both follow the same repository (quarterly/latest?) the will show the same

Don't modify this file. If you want to make changes (switch to latest for example) then create a /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf and put your changes in that. For example:
Code: 
FreeBSD: {
  url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest"
}

If you want to figure out which repositories are enabled (or not), look at the output from pkg -vv, the configured repositories are at the end:
Code: 
Repositories:
  FreeBSD: {
    url             : "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest",
    enabled         : yes,
    priority        : 0,
    mirror_type     : "SRV",
    signature_type  : "FINGERPRINTS",
    fingerprints    : "/usr/share/keys/pkg"
  }

Yes, if you muck around with repositories as much as I do it sometimes loses track and will show you old cached information. Just force the update, that almost always solves these problems.
