      @stephenw10 I will try. So practicaly I will do the same, but will not apply old config... we will see.

      That is the "Power" of pfSense, your OLD Config should work just fine!

          Can the config from 2.7.0 be used in 2.7.1?

            @Waqar-UK yes, in general restoring to a later version is fine: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/backup/restore-different-version.html

            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.

              @stephenw10 Actually this rule was created by the wizard when I setup HA. The source is not ANY.

              I can understand why this does what it does. I am puzzling how to exactly repair this. Of course the wizard was written by the good netgate folks.

              Usually when we see this the rule has a source of 'any' which is almost always wrong.

                  What exactly is the rule you are using there?

                    I think the 12.0.0.0 ones are for the firewall. I have included the lan ones, but I don't think the problem lives there.

                      Really hard to read that and know for sure. A screenshot would be better.

                      But... that looks OK as far as I can see.

                        I am unable to upgrade from 2.7.0. Running 'certctl rehash' has not resolved anything for me. Update system log:

                          Try running the upgrade from the actual command line with:
                          pfSense-upgrade -d

                          That will show you more useful error output.

                            @stephenw10 Hi Stephen, yes I agree, hard to read, but I have been unsuccessful at uploading screenshots to this interface. I can run pfSense pretty well, and I think I will find my problem, I always have so far, but this interface is a little cumbersome.

                            So what image formats does this interface accept? Cut and paste certainly does not work, and I think I failed at trying to get png from a screenshot to upload. Please excuse me while I unzip my ignorance.

                            After all the years of posting here you'd think I'd have figured this out.

                              Hmm, just accepts most things I try (png, jpeg) but the rules could be more relaxed for admin users.

                              If not though you can always link to an image somewhere else.

                              Or alternatively show the outbound NAT rules from the /tmp/rules.debug file like:

                              # Outbound NAT rules (manual)
                              nat on $WAN inet proto { tcp udp } from 192.168.54.0/24 to any -> 172.21.16.22/32 port 1024:65535  # Test
                              
                              # Outbound NAT rules (automatic)
                              
                              # Subnets to NAT 
                              table <tonatsubnets> { 127.0.0.0/8 ::1/128 192.168.22.0/24 172.25.10.0/24 192.168.251.0/25 }
                              nat on $WAN inet from <tonatsubnets> to any port 500 -> 172.21.16.22/32  static-port
                              nat on $WAN inet6 from <tonatsubnets> to any port 500 -> (em0)  static-port
                              nat on $WAN inet from <tonatsubnets> to any -> 172.21.16.22/32 port 1024:65535 
                              nat on $WAN inet6 from <tonatsubnets> to any -> (em0) port 1024:65535

                                @reberhar copy/paste may need a certain number of upvotes? Stuff like changing signature does.

                                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.

                                  @SteveITS Link then ... I can understand why you might want to do that.

                                  I have forum entries on different platforms. I just haven't spent enough time helping these good folks. I remember how confusing it was at first. Yet, pfSense has been worth the struggle. Now I watch the people I supervise struggle, but that's ok. Productive failures are good teachers.

                                  Thanks for your help.

                                    So what image formats does this interface accept? Cut and paste certainly does not work, and I think I failed at trying to get png from a screenshot to upload.

                                    I always paste the screen shot into a paint program, clip / redact as required, save as a jpeg, then in the forum click on the picture icon to upload

                                        That is much more useful as real txt. I restored it back to that.

                                        Ok so it looks like that lib error is the source of your problems there. Everything after that is caused by it. Do this.

                                        Set the update branch back to 2.7.0 in System > Updates > Update Settings.

                                        Then at the command line run: pkg-static upgrade pkg

                                        That will force pkg to downgrade back to the 2.7.0 version along with the cryptolib.

                                        Once there make sure pkg-static -d update works.

                                        Now try setting the branch back to 2.7.1 and upgrading again.

                                        Steve

                                            You set the branch to 2.7.0 first?

                                            Oh you might need to run pfSense-repo-setup
