Suricata Uninstalled on Updates?

SteveITS · Oct 16, 2023, 4:29 PM

@Lurick I don't know if this is helpful but if WAN wasn't connected, or IPv6, or DNS, or something, the package (re)install might try and fail. Though, I'd think that would affect all packages.

Usually I follow the upgrade guide and uninstall at least "big" packages like Suricata and pfBlocker, though I leave things like OpenVPN export or System Patches for the system to reinstall.

Have you upgraded to the 23.09 beta that was released this weekend?

@Lurick said in Suricata Uninstalled on Updates?:

Waited 30 minutes after upgrade today and still no install :(

Hmmm... I don't know. As I said, I do not currently have a Plus snapshot testing environment and thus cannot check that out.

I would assume there are some other Suricata users running the devel snapshots, though. If it is a generic pfSense Plus issue I would expect additional complaints from other users to be showing up.

I do now recall why pfSense automatically removes and reinstalls the packages. It was in response to an old issue where with certain operating system updates you needed to install the packages that were compiled under the new OS kernel version. It's a long story, but there were scenarios where the package itself needed no updates, so its version remained the same. But the OS did get an update and some of the shared libraries used by a package may have changed. In that instance, the package would need recompiling with the new shared library. A forced-remove and reinstall of packages was then needed in those cases to pull in the package compiled with the new OS kernel and shared libraries, otherwise the existing package installation would fail to start properly with the new shared library after the OS update.

This forced remove and reinstall is technically only really needed if the underlying OS version in pfSense is updated (that is, a new kernel version is included). Some pfSense update that only provides fixes in PHP code, for example, would not need the forced remove and reinstall. But maybe for simplicity the team decided to do the package forced update for all pfSense updates ???

@SteveITS Interesting, WAN is definitely connected although I've got a Dual Stack environment but never had issues going from say 23.01 to 23.05 or 23.05 to 23.05.01 either. I just installed the latest build from this morning and same issue sadly. I did also upgrade to the beta released this weekend as well but no change.

@bmeeks @SteveITS
I spun up a fresh VM and installed Suricata and a few packages with no config and then updated to 23.09 beta from 23.05.01 and saw the same issue :(
It looks like, if I'm reading the logs right, it queues up Suricata for reinstall but never does it after the upgrade.

@Lurick:
Does the FRR package get reinstalled but with the updated version? And is it fully functional after the pfSense upgrade completes?

As you noted, the Suricata package components are being flagged for upgrade/installation during the pfSense upgrade. I have no idea why the pfSense code would not proceed with the reinstall after rebooting from the pfSense OS upgrade. The Suricata package itself is out of the loop because it is not even installed at that point. This is all totally under the control of pfSense until Suricata is reinstalled.

Have you opened a Redmine ticket for this? That's the place to raise the issue to be sure the Netgate develolper team sees it. As I said, I do not have a pfSense Plus test environment, so I can't replicate/test/verify this behavior.

Here is a link to the Redmine site for pfSense: https://redmine.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense.

Lurick · Oct 19, 2023, 3:54 PM

@bmeeks Yah, FRR gets reinstalled properly.
Going to open a ticket on redmine now, thanks for reminding me :)

Edit:
Opened redmine bug:
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/14896

bmeeks · Oct 19, 2023, 4:15 PM

After looking around in the pfSense upgrade code, I found a spot where there might be a problem. But I'm not sure. That spot is in this function: https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/e67b20f4851d7754477c0cdead1c8ea37babde73/src/etc/inc/pkg-utils.inc#L1139.

It could be that the package name Suricata is storing for itself in config.xml is not getting properly recognized after the pfSense upgrade when the code is attempting to find and reinstall the previously installed packages.

bmeeks · Nov 6, 2023, 2:27 PM

This should now be fixed in the 23.09 RC build. The problem was a workaround put in place for a completely different issue with the pkg repo code, and that workaround happened to tickle something the wrong way in the Suricata package install code. That original bug was fixed and the workaround is no longer required. Thus it was removed and Suricata was verified to reinstall correctly according to the notes added to the Redmine ticket by Netgate. See the notes here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/14896#change-70487.

@bmeeks said in Suricata Uninstalled on Updates?:

This should now be fixed in the 23.09 RC build.

I recently upgraded two boxes to v23.09RC and both boxes Suricata package was the only one that was not reinstalled despite been in the configuration file...I had to install...just to share. Snort did though.

Lurick · Nov 6, 2023, 7:41 PM

@NollipfSense Yah, it's fixed in the 23.09 release build, just updated to it and no issues with Suricata staying :)
