Only slight little anything was got warning about another upgrade process running when setting to 24.11

Yeah, got that too ... what was that?

If you go to the upgrade page from the dashboard the upgrade check may still be running. Or when you switch branches the upgrade check against the previous branch may be running. You're more likely to see it on slower CPUs. It's actually not a new issue it's just reported more accurately now.

After few home install upgrades to 24.11 running sucesfully, I started to upgrade our company Netgates. Till now no issues in Netgate 1100,7100. Yesterday I tried 4200, where PPPOE is on wan and afte sucesfull upgrade I found, that WIreguard service is not running. There was disable GW to WG server. Did it happen to anyone? After manual enabling gateway I was able to start WG service and everything works, also after reboot.

It is known? Why that happened?

stephenw10

The Wireguard gateway was actually set as disabled? In the config?

GeorgeCZ58

@stephenw10 No, it was normaly working, as gateways was in use. The same thing did not happen on another appliances.

stephenw10

Hmm, but it showed as disabled when you checked it in the GUI?

GeorgeCZ58

@stephenw10 Yes, after upgrade to 24.11 I found that it was disabled. After enabling it started to work.

stephenw10

Hmm, well I no idea how that could happen. I would expect to see some sort of config change logged.

Coming late to the party, just upgraded my SG-2100 to 24.11, no issues as of yet.

FWIW there are a bunch of patches in the Patches package including one for accidental reordering of firewall rules.

one day in with 24.11 on my SG-2100. I notice high CPU levels in the dash: 100% most of the time, occasionally dropping to 50% and 25%, then back to 100%.

Navigating around the menus appears to be a little more slowish than with 24.03.

Tried full reboot, no improvement.

No patches applied yet, will do apply all as a next step.

Any advice to give at this point?

Probably the changed widget reload behaviour in 24.11. Especially if you have a lot of widgets enabled?

Try checking the CPU usage at the CLI using `top -HaSP'. Check it without the webgui open at all. If it's normal there you can try reverting the widget change.

Yes lots: System Information, Gateways, Installed Packages, Services Status, pfBlockerNG, OpenVPN, Interfaces, Traffic Graphs (9 VLANs of which 3 actively used), NTP Status

I can't seem to edit my posts in this topic.

I cannot start the kea ipv6 service manually. This is a problem as I've lost of my ipv6 leases on devices that use them, which is a lot. I can still fall back to ipv4 but still.

System Activity will show the cpu activity and update the readings every two seconds, but if I also open the dash in a second browser window, and click back to the system activity window, it will stop updating altogether, even after a page reload. The cpu appears to be very busy with that dash.

I thought it best to create a separate topic so we can keep this one clean.
