Unable to find catalogs

[RedWulf]

I've been trying to set up miniDLNA per these instructions
I set up the standard jail with no issue but when I try to install the package(s) I get this error

pkg: package field incomplete: comment
Incremental update completed, 24927 packages processed:
0 packages updated, 0 removed and 24927 added.
pkg: Unable to find catalogs​

I get the same when I run the pkg update or any other pkg install or search commands, which creates a certain issue with fixing the problem. Most seem to end with a make or pkg2ng. I'm guessing that means there is a problem with my pkg files or my jail entirely. I'm new to freebsd(though not new to linux) so I have no idea what to do here, thanks for any help

No help, I tried static and dhcp but neither worked even after restarts. I can ping various sites and it downloads the catalogue updates as well as wget from freenas, so I it seems the network side is working.

Sorry to say that I don't know how to help. I couldn't find out what was causing my DHCP not to work with FN after the upgrade - maybe the Gurus from the forum can provide some ideas.

I went as far as deleted all jails (had to spend the entire day re-creating them in VBox to keep things running), removed the jails dataset, created a jail to test and no IP.

After manually assigning the IP to the jail, was able to pkg update to test and it did work ...
