PKG doesn't see anything [10.0R-p7]

Hey,

I am going crazy with this problem. Everything seems configured fine, but pkg doesn't see any pkg.

Code: 
# pkg -vv
Version                 : 1.3.7
PKG_DBDIR = "/var/db/pkg";
PKG_CACHEDIR = "/var/cache/pkg";
PORTSDIR = "/usr/ports";
INDEXDIR = "";
INDEXFILE = "INDEX-10";
HANDLE_RC_SCRIPTS = false;
ASSUME_ALWAYS_YES = false;
REPOS_DIR [
    "/etc/pkg/",
    "/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/",
]
PLIST_KEYWORDS_DIR = "";
SYSLOG = true;
ABI = "freebsd:10:x86:64";
DEVELOPER_MODE = false;
VULNXML_SITE = "http://www.vuxml.org/freebsd/vuln.xml.bz2";
FETCH_RETRY = 3;
PKG_PLUGINS_DIR = "/usr/local/lib/pkg/";
PKG_ENABLE_PLUGINS = true;
PLUGINS [
]
DEBUG_SCRIPTS = false;
PLUGINS_CONF_DIR = "/usr/local/etc/pkg/";
PERMISSIVE = false;
REPO_AUTOUPDATE = true;
NAMESERVER = "";
EVENT_PIPE = "";
FETCH_TIMEOUT = 30;
UNSET_TIMESTAMP = false;
SSH_RESTRICT_DIR = "";
PKG_ENV {
}
DISABLE_MTREE = false;
PKG_SSH_ARGS = "";
DEBUG_LEVEL = 0;
ALIAS {
}
CUDF_SOLVER = "";
SAT_SOLVER = "";
RUN_SCRIPTS = true;
CASE_SENSITIVE_MATCH = false;
LOCK_WAIT = 1;
LOCK_RETRIES = 5;
SQLITE_PROFILE = false;
WORKERS_COUNT = 0;
READ_LOCK = false;


Repositories:
  FreeBSD: { 
    url             : "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/freebsd:10:x86:64/latest",
    enabled         : yes,
    mirror_type     : "SRV",
    signature_type  : "FINGERPRINTS",
    fingerprints    : "/usr/share/keys/pkg"
  }

Everything looks fine, configuration is ok, I can go the URL and see all packages. But
Code: 
pkg search perl
return nothing.
I get no error code and IDK why it's failing to find anything.

Can't find what is going on. I also try to install stuff with bsdconfig -> Package. But can't install anything too. I see multiple redirections happening and at the end I am redirected to a repository that doesn't exist... (cf screenshot) It's basically trying to reach this "10.0-RELEASE-p7" directory that doesn't exist anywhere.

It's like some variable somewhere is configured wrong. I didn't installed the OS (VPS host) so I am trying to figure out what is wrong.

Re: PKG doesn't see anything

And this seems to work.

Code: 
# pkg update
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.

But I can't find anyway to put pkg in verbose mode to find what is going on in background.
 
I think -d would be the flag you are looking for to get a verbose debug output. So something like pkg -d update -f to force an update of the catalogue would be useful. Out of curiosity, what is the output of host -t srv _http._tcp.pkg.freebsd.org? Perhaps the strange redirection is caused by your VPS provider not supporting DNS SRV records. That's the only thing that comes to mind right now than can explain the issue.

Code: 
# host -t srv _http._tcp.pkg.freebsd.org
_http._tcp.pkg.freebsd.org has SRV record 10 10 80 pkgmir.pkg.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.pkg.freebsd.org has SRV record 50 10 80 pkg0.nyi.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.pkg.freebsd.org has SRV record 50 10 80 pkg0.isc.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.pkg.freebsd.org has SRV record 50 10 80 pkg0.bme.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.pkg.freebsd.org has SRV record 50 10 80 pkg0.ydx.freebsd.org.

Seems that pkg -d update -f fixed it !!!! thanks buddy.

Occasionally the pkg update -f is useful to force downloading the repository catalog when it doesn't detect that it changed. The -d was just for debug and generally won't be needed.
