    I recently start have trouble saving my HAProxy configuration due to a error. It keeps adding clientca_ in front of the SSL offload certificate name. On file level this file does not exist! I tested with both HA Proxy plugins, the regular and dev version. I tried to regenerate the SSL (Lets Encrypt) but this keeps happening. [ALERT] (45623) : config : Couldn't open the ca-file '/var/etc/haproxy_test/clientca_shared-frontend.pem' (No such file or directory). [ALERT] (45623) : config : parsing [/var/etc/haproxy_test/haproxy.cfg:28] : 'bind 0.0.0.0:443' in section 'frontend' : 'ca-file' : unable to load /var/etc/haproxy_test/clientca_shared-frontend.pem Does anybody have the same behaviour? to be clear I have the 25.07-RC running. The relevant part of /var/etc/haproxy_test/haproxy.cfg frontend shared-frontend bind 0.0.0.0:443 name 0.0.0.0:443 ssl crt-list /var/etc/haproxy_test/shared-frontend.crt_list ca-file /var/etc/haproxy_test/**clientca_**shared-frontend.pem verify required crl-file /var/etc/haproxy_test/**clientcrl_**shared-frontend.pem

    @pulsartiger The database name is vnstat.db and its location is under /var/db/vnstat. With "Backup Files/Dir" we are able to do backup or also with a cron.

    @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: Interesting. I would have thought the initial reboot, which occurred as part of the upgrade, would have done the trick, but it took a second reboot, just now, to get things working. Glad you have it sorted. There was no difference in the output of usbconfig show_ifdrv at any point -- before or after unplugging/replugging the USB cable, nor after rebooting. ... Question: What would tell me whether or not a driver was loaded? If there were an attached driver, it should have shown up with the show_ifdrv command. If you use the command and look at the other usb devices, I think they will show attached drivers. I don't expect to see a driver attached to the ups, because there is a quirk that tells the OS to ignore that device (and not attach a driver). Look for idVendor and idProduct in the above output. The Vendor ID for your device is 0764, which corresponds to Cyber Power Systems, and the Product ID for your device is 0601, which is registered as "PR1500LCDRT2U UPS" (don't sweat an exact match for the name). You can see the quirk with the following command: [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: usbconfig dump_device_quirks | grep 0764 VID=0x0764 PID=0x0005 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0501 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0601 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: Your device is third on the list. The HID_IGNORE quirk says to ignore the device and not attach a driver. @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: You might consider adding this resolution to the release notes for 2.8. LOL... sorry, I don't have input to the release notes (I don't work here). While I wrote and maintain various packages, including NUT, I'm still just a volunteer. Most packages are actually written by volunteers.

    @EChondo What's your pfSense version ? The instructions are shown here : [image: 1753262126227-1acdc586-cb29-4148-9e36-81ade4e5e60c-image.png] A restart of a service will start by re creating their config files. If a certificate changed, it will get included. When the process starts, it will use the new certificate. @EChondo said in Issue with ACME Certificates Refresh & Restarting HAProxy: I haven't been able to confirm if the above works(mine just renewed, don't feel like doing it again just to test), so we'll see in 60 days I guess. No need to wait x days. You can re test / renew right away, as you are 'allowed' to renew a couple (5 max ?) of times per week.

    Re: How to update to the latest Tailscale version? I am on latest released Netgate 6100 pfSense PLUS v24 ( pfSense_plus-v24_11_amd64-pfSense_plus_v24_11 ) pkg config abi FreeBSD:15:amd64 pkg -vv | grep -A 3 "pfSense:" pfSense: { url : "pkg+https://pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com/pfSense_plus-v24_11_amd64-pfSense_plus_v24_11", enabled : yes, priority : 0, cat /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf ABI=FreeBSD:15:amd64 ALTABI=freebsd:15:x86:64 PKG_ENV { SSL_CA_CERT_FILE=/etc/ssl/netgate-ca.pem SSL_CLIENT_CERT_FILE=/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-0001-cert.pem SSL_CLIENT_KEY_FILE=/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-0001-key.pem } This firewall is obviously running on FreeBSD 15 no longer on 14. But can I use the freshports link for FreeBSD 14 amd64 quarterly which is at tailscale 1.86.2 or can I only go up to version tailscale 1.84.2_1, and need to wait until they have a version of tailscale 1.86.2 or higher for the FreeBSD 15? Would it be good enough to tell it to ignore the OSVERSION? export IGNORE_OSVERSION=yes Note: use of 14 and not 15 ? pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/quarterly/All/tailscale-1.86.2.pkg service tailscaled restart tailscale up

    I've read through some other posts about this, but they either didn't say whether the proposed solution worked or they were very convoluted and difficult to understand. Here is our scenario: We have 6 locations--Las Cruces (LC), Sunland Park (SP), El Paso (EP), Abilene (ABI), Fort Worth (FW), and Plano (PL). LC and ABI have software that is accessed by the other 4 locations via VPN. There are WireGuard VPNs set up between LC and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL), and ABI and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL). There is also a WireGuard VPN connection between LC and ABI. LC and ABI have 2 internet connections. SP, EP, FW, and PL each have one internet connection. If the primary internet connection goes down at either LC or ABI and failover occurs to the secondary internet connection, is there a way to set up the WireGuard VPN connections so that they also failover without purchasing some 3rd party application? Thanks.

    Because it doesn't run properly on FreeBSD due to threading bugs, it'll eat 100% CPU and stop working.

I mean, i am looking for the easiest procedure to help a customer on deleting old logs than u again! Sorry, LS logs placed to /var/lightsquid/report. GUI procedure for delete old LS logs not exists.

    I think I can second your observation. BandwidthD is installed here as well. I was assuming it is related to squid but I never checked that. The drop in processes at the end of July was due to a reboot. Steadily climbing since. ATM I only have about 10 BandwidthD processes running.

    I will second the 'Static port' suggestion under Firewall -> NAT -> Outbound NAT -> Manual Outbound NAT -> Static Port. This solved my Problems with NAT. Please leave siproxd as a package at least for the Full Install on non embedded. I have created a pfSense package FreeSWITCH which can also run as a SIP proxy or PBX. So now there are two choices for those that want a SIP proxy. There has also been requests on the forum for some time of an openSER package. I think siproxyd in the base of pfSense would actually limit pfSense. Before Firefox there was Mozilla bloated with many features many people didn't want. Internet Explorer also suffered from upgrades with features that very few people wanted. The concept behind Firefox was to make the additional features optional for those that want it. The 'Add-ons' in Firefox have grown immensely and many of them are very good. pfSense's packages is a feature that can help keep the base system from getting bloated which will help keep it fast and its requirements for system resources lower. pfSense package list is growing and I expect that the growth of it is just beginning.

    I've done this with squidhead(/w storeurl feature),vmware,pfsense 1.2. I just build an freebsd 6.3, compile squid, installed and tar. Then copy it to pfsense. Its been running for 3 month I think. Then I wipe out. I'm working now on pfsense 1.3 For performance tuning just Dig it on tuning FreeBSD you'll find it there. The default squid provided is not tuned so you have to edit some of squid.inc
