    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.
    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 :

    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 does not look like a bind interface option is present in the softflowd daemon itself, so it is not in the package either.

    Do not do this. We don't allow FreeBSD packages to be installed directly with good reason. It's only a matter of time before something gets screwed up in the dependencies or a package gets replaced and the whole system is hosed, or it'll break wildly on upgrade.

    I am able to install SARG version: 2.3.10 Apr-12-2015.
    The problem was some broken files:
    Shared object "libgd.so.6" not found, required by "sarg".

    Fix install missing libgd dependcies giflib and webp then force reinstall libgd.
    Sarg now works.
    Edit /usr/local/etc/sarg/sarg.conf  point  output to /usr/local//www/squid-reports
    I added to cron job  : 
    /usr/local/bin/sarg & /usr/local/sbin/squid -k rotate (or just type it in command) to generate report then rotate the log.
    reports can then be viewed @ http://pfsense.ip/squid-reports/

    Hope they will add the package back.

    Modified:
    I use libgd-2.2.3_1 but this will be downgraded if you install other packages. and needs to deinstall sarg.  I just updated to lates stable 2.3.2_1 after update I reinstalled libgd-2.2.3_1 and sarg. I don't know if it have some problem so far none.

    You really should not do any of these things. Do not use a firewall as a file server.

    Kinda difficult to tell what might be going on.. The backup node does have a working internet connection while functioning as backup? No dns issues or otherwise.? This pass rule your talking about, what does it look like? Perhaps disable xmlrpc sync in haproxy for a little while to check if that is the source of problems, or if it is only a additional symptom.?.

    Hi x0139,

    Can you share the haproxy.cfg from the bottom of the config tab? It might show a subtle difference in the acl's ?

    Also make sure to check if you have checked the boxes for certificate acl's to be added.. They add a extra acl which might not be obvious from the gui side..

    Other than that i cant guess whats happening better with the given information..

    Regard,

    Quick question.

    I noticed in my notes I only bound the interface of Lan and I've since have read that Loopback & Lan "both" should be in that spot.

    Could that be my problem with the Squid "eicar" test not loading the default intercept page (althogh did block)… EVEN WHEN I had tried to alias pfsense.localdomain to the 19.168.1.1 ?

    Wondering out loud. Anyone?

    Guess I could experiment and load the old config file that I was using that had squid in it but looking for some feedback.

    Despite the DDoS last week, thinking you can host DNS better than Dyn is probably folly.

    100% agreed - which is why my plan wasn't to replace DynDNS, but to add two NS servers of my own to complement theirs.

    The way I see it, their servers are more reliable generally speaking, but if they are to be attacked (big targets are tempting to DDoS) then I'm not collateral damage since I've got my own puny setup to supply NS services while this is happening. I can even turn off DNS in my firewall and only open it if needed.

    Not being a DNS expert, I figured this made sense - does it? Your idea of using different NS provider also makes sense, TBH, hadn't thought of it.

    The rest of my question is actually answered, DynDNS documentation was misleading and I worked it out with their support team.

    They don't. Use a full install, not NanoBSD. NanoBSD is going away in 2.4, may as well switch to a full install now and use squidGuard how it's intended.
