freebsd-update upgrade not working

[wmatlock]

I had to rebuild a server and I can not get the machine to accept version 9.3 or greater so I have to use version 9.2 and upgrade. This evening I received the following and I don't understand how to continue. Is there a workaround for this message? I do know that the machine will run version 9.3 using this upgrade process. Thanks for any assistance.

# freebsd-update -r 9.3-RELEASE upgrade

Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 9.2-RELEASE from update5.freebsd.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.

The following components of FreeBSD seem to be installed:
kernel/generic world/base world/doc

The following components of FreeBSD do not seem to be installed:
src/src world/games

Does this look reasonable (y/n)? y

Fetching metadata signature for 9.3-RELEASE from update5.freebsd.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.

The update metadata is correctly signed, but
failed an integrity check.
Cowardly refusing to proceed any further.

Have you fully updated your 9.2 system ( freebsd-update fetch install) before trying to upgrade? There are two errata notices mentioned in the 9.3-RELEASE announcement concerning freebsd-update(8), but I don’t know if they apply to your case.

I thought that I had fully updated but after a reboot I ran the freebsd-update(8) again and some more updates were installed. I then was able to do the upgrade. rehash did not help. Whatever the problem when all else fails hit the big red switch always seems to work <grin>.

Thanks

Please remove all data from /var/db/freebsd-update and refetch it again with freebsd-update fetch.
