pkg upgrade fails with Proceed with this action? [y/N]: y pkg: http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:11:i386/latest/All/vim-8.1.0231.txz: Not Found

Hi, just wondering if there is something on a local FreeBSD server here not configured right....
Code:
# pkg upgrade
.
.
.
Proceed with this action? [y/N]: y
pkg: [URL]http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:11:i386/latest/All/vim-8.1.0231.txz[/URL]: Not Found

To be sure the local server can even get to pkg.FreeBSD.org..
# ping pkg.FreeBSD.org

Thanks.
 
Your database is probably out of sync, force it to update: pkg update -f
 
Hi SirDice, tried running portmaster -y -d curl to see if it would upgrade and ..

Cleaning for pkg-1.10.5_4

This local FreeBSD Server is running 11.1-p15. Right now running freebsd-upgrade -r 11.2-RELEASE upgrade.

Well, there's your answer for you. You're apparently running a FreeBSD version which is no longer supported, the solution would therefor be to upgrade.

Also: do be careful with mixing ports and packages. In the first post you mentioned using pkg upgrade, now you mention Portmaster, but those two don't mix very well. It's best to either rely on binary packages OR building your own ports. Not both at the same time.
 
pkg search vim for me seems to indicate vim is up to version 8.1.0433 in the 'latest' pkg repo.
Do you do the pkg update -f as recommended by SirDice?
 
Hi ljboiler,

Yes I did....


# pkg update -f
