Web interface says (rightly) that an update is available but pihole -up won't see it

Expected Behaviour:

The web interface says new versions of the core and of the web interface are available.

This is true, Github show 6.1.4 as the most recent core version and 6.2.1 as the most recent web interface version.

Using pihole -up should update the core and the web interface.

  • Raspberry Pi 4B (?)
  • PiOS Bookworm (?)

Actual Behaviour:

Using pihole -up via ssh indicates that all three components are up to date.

user@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo pihole -up
  [✓] Building dependency package pihole-meta.deb
  [✓] Installing Pi-hole dependency package

  [i] Checking for updates...
  [i] Pi-hole Core:	up to date
  [i] Web Interface:	up to date
  [i] FTL:		up to date

I read about updatechecker, but it was mentioned in discussions where the issue was slightly different -- unless I am mistaken, in those cases, the update messages shown in the web interface were wrong, which is not the case here.

Debug Token:

[not available right now]

What is the output of the following command from the Pi terminal:

sudo pihole -v

Core version is v6.1.4 (Latest: v6.1.4)
Web version is v6.2.1-1-gc0a237a6 (Latest: v6.2.1)
FTL version is v6.2.3 (Latest: v6.2.3)

So I guess it is already updated?

I ran sudo pihole updatechecker and it now shows the right versions in the web interface :slight_smile:

Thanks a lot!

The update checker runs daily, if I recall. You may have seen a lag here.
