    i am using pfsense 2.8.0 with haproxy 0.63_10 and i have 4 sites that redirect to two different web server, i am using two frontend, one for http request redirect to https using rule: scheme https, and a second with type ssl/https(tcp mode) to redirect the request with the acl and the action, now i want to add a new site to one of the web servers i create a new backend (and even tried duplicate) and add the proper acl and action as always did but for some reason since the update to 2.8.0 the redirect keeps going to the wrong backend, i tried a test and rewrote and old backend and updated the acl and rule in the frontend and it works fine, is there a known bug since the update because it keeps happening even after reboot to pfsense and the haproxy service and reinstall of the package.

    @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.

    TheCook, I've used Asterisk and have sold and supported Asterisk platforms for several years now.  Look at the PbxInAFlash distros.  They have one (I think it's labeled "Green") that is just a straight ISO you can boot as a VM in VirtualBox.  Works really well and I think is Asterisk 10 or 11.  All you need to get it up and running is to set an IP to the VM and set up the sip.conf localnet and extip and you should be good to go.  All the dial patterns and stuff is already done and you get a FreePBX which makes life a lot easier.  I wouldn't put Asterisk on your firewall, especially with timing and jitter.  You don't want your PBX to have any unneeded load. Having said that, if you can get into the Asterisk CLI (which it appears you can) run a "sip show peers", "sip show registry", and "sip show channels".  That should give you an indication if your devices are registering with the PBX and if your trunks are connected.  Also, I see you have your localnet set, but do you have your external IP set in the sip.conf?  That would stop traffic. Good Luck!

    @msmith9xr4: confirmed works disabling ipv6 on 2.1.5 and 2.2.4 for me, 2 different WAN providers. You have IPv6 problems in that case. Start a new thread describing your IPv6 config, what you see when trying to traceroute6 to packages.pfsense.org (or google.com or anything else IPv6-enabled, guessing nothing will work in that case). Locking thread since it's been hijacked by a handful of completely unrelated things.

    No more package problems.  I’d made no changes since the last package download failures of about a week ago, and had downloaded a copy of Wireshark and started a packet capture.  pfBlockerNG and Suricata both installed fine, to include all subordinate downloads.  I installed pfBlockerNG  on my other pfSense installation, which had also been failing, and it installed with the same success.  It seems that the package download problem I’ve been having for the past few weeks just went away.

    Why would a client need to lookup spam server? So are you running Active Directory or not.. You mention ldap server..  So your using ldap to auth, but not AD from MS? Yes bind is a good name server.. How many IPs are you talking about?  You can use either dnsmasq or unbound that are both part of pfsense without any packages added.  Do you need a full blown authoritative name server? Your clients need to talk to the dhcp server at some point, but normally a worse case is /2 of your lease because if your dhcp just happen to fail you could have clients that were like 1 minute away of renew of their lease at the 50% mark, etc. I don't see the advantage of moving dns away from pfsense unless your going to setup redundancy on that system.  Or your just moving it to a system that could also just fail..  Unless you need some specific feature of dns that is not supported in dnsmasq or unbound or even the bind package for pfsense not sure moving it off buys you anything unless the other system is AD where all members of the AD should use AD dns and dhcp since it makes it easier to work with, etc..  If your reason for moving it off is you want dns if pfsense fails - the other system could fail as well..  Just because internet goes down does not mean pfsense stops providing local name services or dhcp even, etc. You could always setup carp for pfsense if your worried about the system failing, etc.

    Packages are no longer supported on 1.x versions. You're 15 releases and 6 years behind, upgrade.
