Cannot update PFSENSE

Hello, this is my first post here. The Forum is very cool, but a have one question:
Today i have one appliance in AWS FreeBSD running at version 11.3-Stable AMD64 and i know this version is a older version of freeBSD. But when i try update running pkg update i receive a follow error:

Shared Object "libarchive.so.7" not fund, required by "pkg"

i tried to run pkg-static bootstrap -f and then the S.O return for me the follow error:

Bootstrapping pkg from pkg+https://firmware.netgate.com/pkg/pfsense_plus-v23_01_amd64_pfsense_plus_v23_01, please wait...
pkg: Error fetching https://firwamre.netgate.com/pkg/pfsense_plus-v23_01_amd64-pfsense_plus_v23_01/Latest/pkg.txz: Not Found
A Pre-built version of pkg could not be found for your system
Consider changin PACKAGESITE or installing it from ports: 'ports-mgmt/pkg'.
I don't know how I can fix this. Can anyone help me or has anyone ever had the same problem?

    Something to ask about in the PfSense product forums as this forum is for NETGEAR and NETGEAR Armor. 

     

    Good Luck.
