    @markster said in pfSense Plus Software Version 23.05 Release Candidate Now Available:

    Upgrade completed without errors. However, after reboot GUI reported Mem usage increased form 16% to 51%.
    This on my Netgate 5100 4Mb RAM. After I did system Halt; and restarted mem usage is back to 17%.

    That is quite normal. It happens because of the ZFS filesystem ARC cache. The upgrade does a LOT of filesystem work (completely unusual), and the ARC cache therefore grows alot as long as there is free memory to use. A restart clears the cache, and it will not happen again unless a new upgrade or some other anomaly causes massive filesystem work.

    In my case, it spiked after a 2nd clean reboot and seems to be slowly returning back to normal (down 1% every 15 minutes or so).

      The entire upgrade went fine without any problems
      anymore.

      RAM usage will be a little bit higher on 23.05 RC, but
      not on 2.7 Devel, but often after a while it will be
      splitting into 50% RAM and 50% swap usage.

        This third RC version has been super stable so far…

          Updated to 23.05 RC and most sites were unreachable. What to do? Can't find the exact cause. When I rebooted to 23.01 everything was fine again.

          It looked like all ipv6 connections where terminated. But I don't have any weird rule that would cause this. Any suggestions where to look?

          I have a PPPoE ipv4 connections and using Use IPv4 connectivity as parent interface for setting up an IPv6 connection.

            @liudger Have you determined yet if this is a DNS issue?
            Can you ping any outside sites?

                    @markster Sorry for the later reply. I can't ping ip certain ip's, but some websites work and some doesn't (doesn't make sense for me still). When I turn off pfblocker it doesn't make a difference.

                    This site is still reachable for example.

                    if I ping 8.8.8.8 I get this:

                    Request timeout for icmp_seq 1
                    92 bytes from pfsense.liudimation.com (10.0.2.1): Destination Host Unreachable
                    Vr HL TOS  Len   ID Flg  off TTL Pro  cks      Src      Dst
                     4  5  00 5400 1a95   0 0000  3f  01 44ca 10.0.2.59  8.8.8.8 
                    
                    

                    What is the next step to trouble shoot?

                      I found the issue. The gateway settings were changed when updating. And these automatic setting didn't work.

                      f17f8d27-8bc8-4be7-99cf-0056b66911f5-image.png

                      Changed it back to the ipv4 interface. So the issue that only ipv6 connections were working.
                      Also the gateway name is also suddenly all caps. This wasn't before. Maybe that is why it changed to other interface? Is this a bug?

                        Hmm, weird it looks like you only have one enabled v4 gateway there. I would expect 'automatic' to always use that. It may have lost it's default route somehow, setting a new default gateway would restore that.

                          Installed the next nightly RC build 23.05.r.20230513.0132. Is there a change log posted anywhere? Thanks.

                            @stephenw10 Yes that is what I would thought it would do. But also that it changed the gateway to automatic and that the name is suddenly all caps

                                Bug fixes. Platform recognition in Azure. Updating the repo data without packages present. PCAP page now handles interfaces that don't support VLANs correctly. Perhaps most exciting e1000 should now correctly handle VLAN0. Yay!

                                  Those should always have been all upper case and a bug allowed them not to be which would break upgrades from earlier versions.

                                    I assume the CE > Plus repo? That will be after 23.05 is released. It should be very soon after because we are now able to test that in advance so we know it works as expected.

                                      Than why is the other gateway (IPv6) not all caps?

                                        Is there a change log anywhere for the pfSense+ RC builds? I believe this is the 4th RC release. Have not noticed much between them.

                                          Good question. Perhaps the fix missed v6 gateways for some reason. Let me see if I can replicate...
