Ah awesome, glad it's not only me. Been struggling for 2 hours to try and tweak settings with no joy.

Does the machine need a reboot after applying the patch? I applied it but can't reboot right now and am still getting the error.

Can you show the contents of that file?
Or does even that file exists at all?

Today's build (Thu Aug 15 16:30:12 EDT 2013 ) seems to fix this.

My bug is still open so this is not "official" yet. I'll confirm when it gets acknowledged and marked as fixed/closed.

Thx.

I am confused.

If this was already fixed, why does it still happen in this build:
2.1-RELEASE (i386)
built on Wed Sep 11 18:16:50 EDT 2013 ?

"[ There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:34: cannot define table pfBlockerEurope: Cannot allocate memory - The line in question reads [34]: table persist file /var/db/aliastables/pfBlockerEurope.txt]"

Also, if I try to Patch using "System: Patches"
I get the following errors:
"Patch can NOT be applied cleanly (detail)
Patch can NOT be reverted cleanly (detail)"

Disable pfblocker, increase the value and then enable it again.

Marcel,

Can you describe the value that you mentioned in your post?
Thanks !

It will depend on the size of your lists

you can use default 100000 or 300000 or 400000…..

Okay - Let me rephrase my question:

Where is this value?

It's on the first post of this thread System -> Advanced -> Firewall Maximum Table Entries

@pppfsense:

I already tried some very high values for the Firewall Maximum Table Entries with no success (System - Advanced - Firewall Maximum Table Entries = 999999999)
