    Ìam trying to use dynamic templates ([server-template] (https://www.haproxy.com/blog/dns-service-discovery-haproxy)) but pfSense names the servers unexpectedly [image: 1754569386169-3d2b5842-fb36-4e70-b305-a99d0ca4b9f1-image.png] I did expect these to be generated at runtime after an actual request (providing a hostname that is internally resolved to an internal IP) "Internet" says pfsense does not support this in their HA package - but the haproxy.cfg looks alright - so iam not sure where the problem lies.

    @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.

    @Gertjan Whenever it is a full hour I see stuff like this in my logs: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/ip/94.16.122.152 It seems to be time servers but it's a TOR node and some private person hosting traefik? I feel like this should not show up? It originates from my ASUS access point. But it is also related to when the emerging threats get updated. All happens at the full hour mark. I don't know why some random private persons ntp server gets queried.

    @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.

    This is still an issue as of 2.8.0 / 25.07, and it drives me crazy. Gateway failure works as expected, the wireguard tunnels will fail over to the backup gateway and continue on as normal, but will never recover once the failed gateway comes back online. While a reboot will (usually) fix it, I usually just go into my routing settings and mark the secondary gateway as down, forcing it to revert back to the primary... the users tend to dislike it when I reboot the firewall in the middle of the day

    I was looking at something else in ntopng today and went ahead and tested/committed a fix so that redis now only binds to localhost. Still worked fine for me so I pushed the new version out for everyone.

    Probably not. Personally, I would leave the FTP server running and only enable the firewall rule/port forward when it is needed.

    That "error" is harmless, there is likely some other different error happening. Post the full output from the package installation window when it fails.

    That depends on what you mean by "keep this package up to date". If you mean keeping the package itself current/updated, there is no way to keep it updated that does not also potentially compromise the integrity of the package set on pfSense. One of several reasons we do not recommend installing packages from other repositories, including FreeBSD's own repositories. You can reinstall it by hand when you know an update is available. FreeBSD packages are good about not clobbering your own files/data when uninstalling/updating/installing again. If you mean keeping it across pfSense updates, that's even less certain. You will likely have to manually reinstall it after each update.

    This thread was specifically for people who were developing packages previously who needed information on converting existing packages for use on pfSense 2.3 in the new pkg and bootstrap framework. Not for general package creation questions.

    johnpoz we get it, you dont like dnscrypt, so why are you in this thread? If someone wants to run dnscrypt on their own kit, its none of your business. My setup on my existing router which I plan to migrate to pfsense is sort of like this local caching resolver -> forwards uncached requests to my own dnscrypt endpoint of which that resolves out on the internet. and yes I know what dnssec is and the mode is nothing to do with dnssec. uozewe -I am willing to send something your way for the work, a cli only package is good enough for me, so just the binary, rc script and maybe sample configuration.  I got no issue editing unbound and what not to add forwarder manually.

    Your pkg metadata is very out of date if it's trying to fetch a file that old. Try running "pkg update -f" from a shell prompt and then see if it works. It should be pulling version 1.3.13, not 1.3.8.

    I don't see any version of this software available for freebsd. If NUT works you don't need anything other to be installed on firewall.

    Most are there, some are not. snort/suricata are not there. There isn't enough horsepower to run them and I think they wouldn't compile, either. Our hands are tied somewhat based on what will and what will not compile on ARM and from the RAM/CPU limits. For example: Squid should work, Squid+ClamAV would not be viable.

    @PiBa: Look under the 'actions' to configure 'what' to do if a acl is matched. There are only a very few acl's that have extra options under the + button. Thanks for the hint. I didn't found any action for url rewrite, so I guess I have to write a custom action. But I didn't find any working custom action to to this. I think I would have to use a "http-request set-path" action, but I didn't find any working examples for my rewrite. Could you please provide an example for a custom action that simply rewrites the url path from /MyPath to /? Edit: I found a working action. I've added this to the backend: reqrep ^([^\ ])\ /MyPath/(.) \1\ /\2
