    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.

    This situation happens because gui does not preserve hidden squid cron identification. In some situations will act like a bug but on other like a custom cron config.

    @exograpix asked for explaining the new option about rotate cron. squid3-dev 3.3.10 pkg 2.2.1 0  0  *  *  *  root  /bin/rm /var/squid/cache/swap.state; /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/sbin/squid -k rotate -f /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/etc/squid/squid.conf */15  *  *  *  *  root  /usr/local/pkg/swapstate_check.php squid3-dev 3.3.10 pkg 2.2.2 version default 0  0  *  *  *  root  /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/sbin/squid -k rotate -f /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/etc/squid/squid.conf */15  *  *  *  *  root  /usr/local/pkg/swapstate_check.php squid3-dev 3.3.10 pkg 2.2.2 version with reseting the cache –--> Proxy server: Cache management: Clear cache on log rotate 0  0  *  *  *  root  /usr/local/pkg/swapstate_check.php clean; /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/sbin/squid -k rotate -f /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/etc/squid/squid.conf */15  *  *  *  *  root  /usr/local/pkg/swapstate_check.php So, if you activate the new option you will reset your cache every night. At 2.2.1 cache.log file wasn't rotate because squid.conf didn't have any debug_options rotate=N (squid3 syntax) line. And rm for swap.state is not necessary, as discussed in this thread.

    @madscientist159: Never mind.  It seems that if the disk usage is high enough (> 102% ?) Snort will sliently fail. :-[ I am using NanoBSD, so I was a bit surprised by this.  I take it the Snort rules are not kept in tmpfs? [/quote] The rules are written to /usr/local/etc/snort (if on a 2.0.x machine) and to /usr/pbi/snort-arch/etc/snort on a 2.1 machine.  If there is not enough free disk space, bad things can certainly happen.

    You rock!  That did it. I deleted the openvpn-client-export.inc file.  It still showed up in the package manager.  But I was able to delete it normally after that point. I was then able to install it and my "Client Export" tab showed up as expected. Perfect!  Thanks again. -Keith

    @BBcan17: Thanks Bill, Are there any other logs that I could look at to see where the issue could be? One of those routers is using the Open ET ruleset ("C") so its most likely not a recent rule, as the open ruleset is 30 days behind. Snort logs everything it logs to the system log, so if nothing is there to give a hint, you are out of luck.  Snort is not as "helpful" with logging as Suricata.  All of that is under control of the binary, so nothing can be done from the GUI package side. As for those rules, my understanding is the 30-day timer is actually per rule.  So some "rule X" in the set may hit 30-days old today and wind up in the ET Open collection while other rules may not.  At least that's how I believe it works on the Snort subscriber versus registered-user rules. Bill
