        After upgrading from 1.2.3 to 2b5 and rc1 at every upgrade/reboot the interfaces must be reconfigured.

          Seems like your config file got some errors. Maybe it is the same behaviour like this with the same solution?

            Hi Peter,

            I don't think that this is same problem. The system starts but I have to reconfigure the interfaces every time. The next time I'll do a reboot I'll save a boot log. Maybe that will help to diagnose the problem.
            Do you know if the system already save a log on startup?

            Thanks,
            Stenio

              Something in the old config is causing it to be tossed out. Can you send me a copy of your 1.2.3 config so I can look it over?

                I'm having the same issue.  What's weird is I'm running a 2 pfsense setup with carp.  The backup machine upgraded perfectly (from 1.2.2).  The master machine had the problem you described above.  During bootup I see a bunch of config related errors flash by quickly, then the interfaces are listed by name (wan, lan, dmz, dmzadmin, apps, pfsync) but none have any ip's.

                  Not sure if you need mine as well, but will a copy of the backup xml file from the webgui work or are you looking for a different config?

                      Thanks to jimp a solution was quickly found.  I disabled (actually deleted) the OpenVPN server config I had setup and the install ran perfectly.  I've now got both boxes successfully upgraded to 2.0.

                        Same for me,

                        when I delete The OpenVPN Configuration before Update, Upgrade works perfect!

                          OK, I've got these configs already, but if anyone else hits the same issue, I'd like to see the configs also, for comparison and testing. I'll be running some tests on the OpenVPN upgrade code in the meantime, but it may be a few days.
