    hey forum. maybe someone can help me with pfBlocker. I have this nice overview on pfsense mainpage but it logs nothing. [image: 1754330105763-overview.png] I found a related thread that never got resolved however https://forum.netgate.com/topic/175045/pfblockerng-not-logging-everything Is this normal behaviour? I am using the default out of the box settings here. When doing a nslookup of a blocked domain I seem to be getting the correct response. nslookup c.bing.com Server: 127.0.0.53 Address: 127.0.0.53#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: c.bing.com Address: 10.10.10.1 But I don't see anything logged in the main tab. Do I need to change something in this setting here: Global Logging/Blocking Mode By default it is set to "No Global Mode" [image: 1754330032261-stats.png] Under alerts I see my nslookups but it only shows "unknown" and not the actual website. I also expect more than just this to show up here when browsing the web. What do i need to change to get this to resolve properly? I have searched already and couldn't find a good answer. I am using Unbound btw. and this under general setup: [image: 1754330288353-dns-settings.png]

    @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.

    @Gertjan said in can I install a FreeBSD 14 pkg on a FreeBSD 15 pfSense?: If the package contains binaries : forget it. The ABI is different. It's not a hard and fast rule like that. It depends upon what the binary is, what dependencies it has, and how everything was compiled. I am currently running a binary package, which was built on FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE, on pfSense 25.07 (FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT) without issue.

    @FSC830 Then I wouldn't use the same interface for that in the first place. pfsense will route no problem if a mobile device needs to access something behind the fritzbox.

    For some reason post install code did not work on your installation. Reinstall or do this in the command line. /usr/sbin/pw groupadd snort -g 920 and /usr/sbin/pw useradd snort -u 920 -c "Snort User" -d /nonexistent -g snort -s /sbin/nologin James

    Darn! The adding of a honking ( 24gig ) swap file did not solve the problem. I am up and running with sparse bands as a memory model. What are the possible causes of the failure to compile the port groups? Pretty sure it is memory related ( at 1% CPU, 85% of Main memory, 12% of 4gig Swap ).

    I don't know about 2.0, but I use Bandwidthd on a bridged install with 1.2.3.  I have it attached to the WAN which is where the IP address is for the bridge.  Not sure if anything changed that would affect it in 2.0, but it works in 1.2.3 in case you haven't tried that. Regards, Ron

    i can understand, not good at all for a production env if you do get the opportunity, try another way… that is to remove all havp packages and clam packages from ssh and then install from ssh (correct version) as per this thread: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,23620.0.html

    @jimp: It would also help to see the output of this when it is in the broken state: var_dump($config['installedpackages']['package']); Run that in the PHP Execute section of Diagnostics > Command. Sorry for the long delay. It's been a little while since I've had to deploy another system and I haven't had the time to troubleshoot this on its own. I did another one today, and the output of the above command was NULL. Notes doesn't work this time either, none of the packages do. Installed packages in the GUI shows nothing, but I do still have entries in the services menu that don't work, so I will have to reinstall al packages manually again. I appreciate your help on this, Jim. I should have another system to deploy soon so I'll be able to get back to you more quickly. Thanks.
