    @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.

    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.

    @hsiang: Yup, the problem solved. but when i configure some setting in cache management, when i save it, i prompt The following input errors were detected: * The field 'Hard disk cache location' is required. I thought that this field by default is empty?? we do not need to key in any entry unless we want to change the default path? Not sure.  I would ask in an active squid thread.

    So if I understand correctly if you set the maximum object size to 0, it will still memory cache but not disk cache?

    Glad you got the update installed successfully. Let me know if you still have issues with miniupnpd. The error message from the log when it happens, and what you did or program you were using to make that error occur is what I need. Otherwise I'm shooting in the dark on where problem is.

    Yes it can be done in pfSense. It would be possible to specify which categories are to be blocked. I might do this soon when I get some free time.

    Good find. I have added the code to correctly set the webgui url in miniupnpd. Please update by doing the following and let me know how it works for you. From the console choose option 8 shell. Type the following command. fetch -o - http://wgnrs.dynalias.com:81/pfsense/miniupnpd/sh-update-miniupnpd.sh | sh - After that completes goto the miniupnpd settings page in the webgui and click change. This will rebuild the miniupnpd config and restart miniupnpd.

    Not sure what is happening, but I can't seem to install freeradius via the package manager in the GUI now.  This is the error I recieve: Downloading package configuration file… done. Saving updated package information... done. Downloading freeradius and its dependencies... done. Checking for successful package installation... failed! Installation aborted. When I try to execute a pkg_add -r freeradius in the gui like I had done previously, this seems to hang too.  I did notice looking on the freebsd ports site that they have moved to freeradius-1.1.4_1.  Not real sure what to think of it just yet, but if anyone has a solution please let me know, I'll continue working with it on my end.

    @sullrich: Do you have the OpenNTPD package installed as well? I'm not sure what you mean in saying "as well"…are there two OpenNTPD services? I'm talking about the OpenNTPD package that can be installed as an extra and used as an NTP Server to provide NTP to the network, which would then allow me to synchronize client computers with pfSense. That is what I have installed and what is not starting for some reason. I suppose there is an NTP client in pfSense that synchronizes with internet servers (e.g. pool.ntp.org), so that may be causing the confusion, but that part of pfSense seems to be working great and is not in question... But maybe neither is working...?

    anyway this is not so imp. Ntop is not so good. I`ve noticed that it shows only some kind of traffic.For ex. DC++ is not shown only bittorent and edonkey.Maybe is configured to do this.

    the best place to find the logs and view these stats is under /var/squid/logs/access.log and cache.log, the later being the more helpful of the two.  If you view it in vi you can use shift G to jump to the end of the file where the most recent entries are.

    there's not an easy way to do it.  The best way, from the command line is to delete the squid cache manually and then run squid -z which will rebuild it.

    @ginosteel: You can not run squid on the same port as the webgui Then you are in transparent proxy mode which is on port 80 by definition. Set the WebGUI of pfSense to :81 or change to HTTPS on :443 and this error message will go away. Alternatively turn off transparent proxying and you get access to squid only on the specified port.
