      Hi,

      I'm getting these error pretty frequently. I've had a look around but can't find anything on them.

      Does anyone know what could be going wrong?

      Thanks!

      There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:34: cannot define table pfB_PRI1_v4: Cannot allocate memory - The line in question reads [34]: table <pfB_PRI1_v4> persist file "/var/db/aliastables/pfB_PRI1_v4.txt"

        @omethe set system/advanced/firewall &NAT> Firewall Maximum Table Entries to 2million or more.

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
