I am setting up a new system, and installed FreeNAS 9.10-Stable to a pair of USB 3.0 flash drives. I booted it up and went straight into the console where I have been testing my drives with smartctl and badblocks before setting up my storage pools. So I really have just been using FreeNAS as a freebsd shell. After being up a few days running badblocks, I left it running smartctl long tests. When I came back tonight, I see that there was an error message on the console: "freenas update_check.py: [freenasOS.Configuration:710] Got http error HTTP Error 404: Not Found"

I have a few questions about this one. First did I forget to do something when I ran the installer? I'm working my way through the setup portion of the documentation, but have been concentrating on hardware testing before I did any more configuration.

Second, why would this error appear on the console? Once it is running, it will rarely have one attached, even with IPMI.

Third, should I just ignore this, or is there something I need to do. I presume from the name that this is a maintenance script that got installed (obviously to check for updates), maybe run from chron or something. But is it complaining because I have not configured something correctly?

Thanks for your advice.

Typically happens when the FreeNAS server attempts to fetch an update, the response it got from the update server was 404. It's nothing to worry about, I see it from time to time.
