can't update pfsense or install packages

From a shell prompt or Diag > Command (preferably a shell prompt), try running the following commands:
$ host pkg00-atx.netgate.com $ route -n get pkg00-atx.netgate.com $ route -n -4 get pkg00-atx.netgate.com $ route -n -6 get pkg00-atx.netgate.com $ nc -vz pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 $ nc -vz4 pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 $ nc -vz6 pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443On a working system with IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity, I'd expect to see the following output:
$ host pkg00-atx.netgate.com pkg00-atx.netgate.com has address 208.123.73.207 pkg00-atx.netgate.com has IPv6 address 2610:160:11:18::207 $ route -n get pkg00-atx.netgate.com route to: 208.123.73.207 destination: 0.0.0.0 mask: 0.0.0.0 gateway: x.x.x.1 fib: 0 interface: ix3 flags: <UP,GATEWAY,DONE,STATIC> recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msec mtu weight expire 0 0 0 0 1500 1 0 $ route -n -4 get pkg00-atx.netgate.com route to: 208.123.73.207 destination: 0.0.0.0 mask: 0.0.0.0 gateway: x.x.x.1 fib: 0 interface: ix3 flags: <UP,GATEWAY,DONE,STATIC> recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msec mtu weight expire 0 0 0 0 1500 1 0 $ route -n -6 get pkg00-atx.netgate.com route to: 2610:160:11:18::207 destination: :: mask: :: gateway: 2xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::1 fib: 0 interface: gif0 flags: <UP,GATEWAY,DONE,STATIC> recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msec mtu weight expire 0 0 0 0 1480 1 0 $ nc -vz pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 Connection to pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 port [tcp/https] succeeded! $ nc -vz4 pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 Connection to pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 port [tcp/https] succeeded! $ nc -vz6 pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 Connection to pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 port [tcp/https] succeeded! -
@jimp the first 3 cmds respond the same way as working system
the rest is below
$route -n -6 get pkg00-atx.netgate.com route: route has not been found $nc -vz pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 nc: connect to pkg00-atx.netgate.com port 443 (tcp) failed: Permission denied nc: connect to pkg00-atx.netgate.com port 443 (tcp) failed: No route to host $nc -vz4 pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 nc: connect to pkg00-atx.netgate.com port 443 (tcp) failed: Permission denied $nc -vz6 pkg00-atx.netgate.com 443 nc: connect to pkg00-atx.netgate.com port 443 (tcp) failed: No route to host -
And you are certain there are no rules on the Floating tab?
If you run the command
pfSsh.php playback pftabledrillfrom a shell prompt, do you see anything listed in thesshguardorvirusprottables? -
-
There has to be something in your rules blocking the outgoing connection then, but without a floating rule I'm not sure what it might be coming from. A package, possibly.
Can you post the whole
/tmp/rules.debugfile as a text attachment (e.g. rename it to rules.txt). You can edit out any sensitive IP addresses but please keep the last octet intact and differentiated. For example, you can change 192.168.1.1 to x.x.x.1 and 203.0.113.5 to y.y.y.5 so it's clear they're different subnets. -
Yes, it has to be something blocking it locally. The firewall itself cannot create outbound states.
Do you have outbound NAT set to automatic? If not perhaps you have an overmatching rule doing something odd. That wasn't the same error you saw when it was trying IPv6...
-
-
@stephenw10 outbound NAT Mode is set to automatic
-
Did you ever have rules using those aliases for the Netgate repo servers?
Though you cant even open a state to 1.1.1.1.
Did you ever have Snort/Suricata installed?
-
@stephenw10 u mean aliases for netgate servers ? i don't remember
and i have never installed any package -
Your config contains:
# User Aliases\ table <files01_netgate_com> \{ 208.123.73.209/32 2610:160:11:18::209/128 \}\ files01_netgate_com = "<files01_netgate_com>"\ table <files00_netgate_com> \{ 208.123.73.207/32 2610:160:11:18::207/128 \}\ files00_netgate_com = "<files00_netgate_com>"\ table <pkg01_atx_netgate_com> \{ 208.123.73.209/32 2610:160:11:18::209/128 \}\ pkg01_atx_netgate_com = "<pkg01_atx_netgate_com>"\ table <pkg00_atx_netgate_com> \{ 208.123.73.207/32 2610:160:11:18::207/128 \}\ pkg00_atx_netgate_com = "<pkg00_atx_netgate_com>"\Those are user created but are not currently being used in the ruleset. If at any time they were used it's possible some old rule is somehow still loaded.
Can we assume you have rebooted at some point? That would clear any old rules.
-
@stephenw10 i just rebooted the router but nothing changes
-
So you have those aliases but never used them in a firewall rule?
Do you have an upstream proxy configured?
-
@stephenw10 said in can't update pfsense or install packages:

yes

no
-
Ok try this. At the CLI run:
pfctl -dThat will disable the firewall entirely.
Then try to update again:pkg-static -d updateRe-enable the firewall again:
pfctl -e -
@stephenw10 i lost internet completely when i desabled the firewall
-
You would lose it from a client behind the firewall because it also disables NAT but does it allow the firewall to connect to the package servers?
-
@stephenw10 no the firewall update status keeps looking in the dashboard
tired the update from command prompt, no success
package manager is unable to connect to servers -
Does it still show 'permission denied' though with the firewall disabled?
