@heper Thank you for your reply. I am following the example of the link you posted. Question:  Since I cannot use sudo to write my test file, how else can I create a file under /etc/phpshellsessions? –------ I actually found the way by installing the sudo package through pfsense web-interface..

@viragomann: I had also such an issue, the lighttpd on backup box crashed when Suricata ran an XMLRPC Sync. CMB suggested me to update the lighttpd package. After the update the issue was gone. Here is the thread: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=108832.msg606053#msg606053 Thanks for your reply. I will give it a try, it makes sense to me that this may solve the issue.

@cmb: If you only had, say, 256 MB RAM, but configured a large state table size that could consume more than 256 MB RAM, and hence you caused the system to run out of kernel memory, it can't do anything but crash. In previous testing state amount of ram was 2048MB and in current testing state amount of ram is 3072MB and for while without crash ;) , but thank you for your suggestion. @cmb: If you're not being prompted for a crash report, you've broken something in that in your changes too. The files would be under /var/crash/. I did backup the .vmdk file from crashed state and the /var/crash/ folder is contain one file only named: minfree! why crash file did not created? I can't remember did any changes or recompile binary related to collect or write crash file, can you help me to find an scope to look for broken "collect or write crash file" relate please? @cmb: If you can replicate the crash on an unmodified pfSense 2.3, then I'm interested in more specifics. As is, this thread is about your modified product and seems to have no relation to stock releases. I'm very interested too but it's better to find the problem in mine. Thank you again!

Doesn't seem in any way related as vlan traffic is not mentioned at all. I'm seeing the a halt the second vlan traffic hits the altq/codelq enabled parent interface. Your issue also seems non related.

Using Notepad++ should be OK, that's what I usually use on Windows. Some other Windows text editors will change the line endings or split up long lines and break the XML. You definitely ended up with an invalid XML file in the process though. The reboot would have reverted to the last valid config.

That's not quite what i was on about. Before you could set PFSense to auto download and install updates. This option seems to be missing in the current snapshot. Edit: never mind looks like i was imagining things, all you could do was click the button to have the system update in one click. Just a feature request then to Fully auto update with in a set window. If there is a command line that could be triggered i could run it via cron.

This is a Windows issue. Discovery in Windows is sketchy at best.

@BBcan177: @cremesk: i found a small mistake.. "Custom Destination" needs a "Custom Source" in 'Advanced Outbound Firewall Rule Settings'. Sven Thanks for pointing that out… Copy/paste is sometimes a bad thing :)  Will get that fixed in the next release ... hehe  :P Thanks for fix

@athurdent: @cremesk: i dont no why but my settings was crahed.. I have never configured this but the "disable growl" was unchecked and the IP was 'admin'  :o That might have come from a Browser that has login data saved for your pfSense gateway. I.e. if you save the login for the pfSense GW in Safari on iOS and edit Dynamic DNS entries, it might auto-fill the Username/Password of your Provider with your pfSense GWs login. I use Linux Fedora23 with Firefox45.. i think this is the same scenario. WebGUI Login Autocomplete [unchecked] Enable webConfigurator login autocomplete When this is checked, login credentials for the webConfigurator may be saved by the browser. While convenient, some security standards require this to be disabled. Check this box to enable autocomplete on the login form so that browsers will prompt to save credentials (NOTE: Some browsers do not respect this option).

@cmb: @NotAnAlias: I believe I am experiencing the same issue. When I upload to youtube, my internet packetloss is around 50%. It is only with youtube, nothing else. It looks like pfsense's network graph doesn't handle it well either. It reports the wrong bandwidth being used. In that case it looks like QUIC's congestion control is broken. The graph is absolutely correct, that uses the NIC's counters. You can pass more traffic out of an interface than your ISP allows. The only limit to how much you can push out your WAN NIC is its link speed, probably 100 Mb or 1 Gb. TCP won't exceed your ISP-imposed speed limit because of its congestion control. UDP has no such congestion control so you can blast as much as you want, but everything past your connection's upload limit will be dropped upstream. QUIC congestion control is supposed to prevent sending more traffic than your link allows. Since it's not, it can overrun your connection so much it will result in significant problems. That's the fun part of networking:  slowest link matters.  You have a gig to your pfSense box, 100 to the cable modem, then the other side of that is clamped to 25 upstream.  Almost makes one want to put in a queue for outbound traffic clamped to the 25Mbps.

The message indicates: "can not access update". This displays when checking the update settings from the update tab. Sorry for my lack of specifics. I did try the previously mentioned fix of resaving the setting on the update tab. Best Regards

Ok I couldn't reproduce this Bug but i will observe it.

Sorry but no he does not have a 2 port switch on his wan side, what he has is 2 bridged ports.. this does NOT a switch make…

UPDATE:  just updated to the latest RC (prior to Monday's release) and this is indeed working now.

@jimp: Fixed, thanks! really? i see it now.. ;)
