    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.

    @bmeeks So after upgrading to the newest PfSense 2.8.0 everything is now working like a charm!

    Suricata no longer seems to strip off tags like it did before! Which means I can now use my network segmented by VLANs and still use the benefits of Suricata Inline IPS! Very niiize!

    I checked in the Alerts section and it is indeed generating the correct alerts from the different VLAN sections, I put Inline IPS on the parent interface of all the VLANs.

    I assume this is because the FreeBSD version is also updated with the new PfSense 2.8.0 version?

    Because before, as soon as I selected Inline IPS mode, my entire VLAN tagging would break and nothing was reachable until I switched back to Legacy mode.

    The database name is vnstat.db and its location is under /var/db/vnstat.

    @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 :

    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.

    I had a similar issue with Routed VTI over IPsec recently. FRR lost its neighbors after rebooting or when a tunnel went down. It never re-discovered it automatically. Only restarting FRR (either in GUI or via CLI) brought the neighbors back.

    When I manually added those under the OSPF neighbors tab in the GUI it seems to solve the problem as well.

    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.

    It seams you are trying to mix a few features of haproxy that cannot be used together.
    https < cannot use cookies or any other method that 'modifies' the traffic.
    http < should not run on port 443 but on port 80, but does not support https traffic in the haproxy1.4

    I suppose you do want the endusers to use your website securely, so that listening on port 443 is 'correct'.

    Do you really need the cookie? and the stats

    I you do there might be another option in the new haproxy-devel 1.5dev17 package that fits your needs.
    It allows using 'http mode' which allows for the cookie setting with SSL-offloading possibly even combined with a SSL backend. But this does require configuring the certificates on the haproxy settings. Though the package is still in active development and options might change without notice..

    As an update…

    I decided to reboot pfsense, and see if things got better. It crashed right after the first menu. Fortunately, safe mode let me start up pfsense, and I uninstalled all packages. I haven't rebooted yet. I think pfsense is great, but I think I won't be using any packages with pfsense anymore.

    Hey Jules,

    Im currently changing the haproxy-devel package for pfSense 2.1 based on HAproxy1.5dev17. And thought this could be a nice addition..

    But have hit a bit of a issue when trying to support/configure it haproxy tells me: "library does not support TLS NPN extension"

    Probably due to the 'old' OpenSSL version.. compiled into HAproxy.
    haproxy -vv tells me:
    Built with OpenSSL version : OpenSSL 0.9.8q 2 Dec 2010

    Basically the configuration could probably be done with the use of the advanced options.. But figuring out how to compile haproxy against OpenSSL1.0.0d or newer im not sure yet how to procede/change the package.xml build description to allow for this..

    If someone is willing to help out with this, no objections from me :). And ill happily add the ssl_npn ACL option into the php files.

    Thanks for your reply!

    I will update the firewall ASAP. The strange thing is that from the table is missing the most significant IP, the one with higher bandwith (about 50% of the total).

    Same problem here after a power failure.

    It seems that at least one of Freeradius' databases in /var/log/radacct/timecounter/ was corrupted. I removed them all (4 files), then restarted the service without any further problem.

    Hoping this will help you

    Many things are labeled as "Beta" in packages but work perfectly fine, Quagga is one of them. Don't only use such labels to judge their quality, give them a try.

    When you imported the CA, did you also import the user certificates? Or just the CA?  If you imported the user certs, did you maybe import the certs first and the CA later?

    If you import the CA first, and then the certs, it should locate the proper CA and form an association and work with the client export package as expected.

    Though actually in the code it appears to find it either way (CA imported first or Certs imported first), so long as you import the CA and the user certificates.

    Probably since urlsnarf.xml doesn't actually exist :-)

    That package isn't meant to really be used much yet, it's really just there to get the binaries onto the box.
