      I spun up a VM, and see that check_reload_status dumps core when trying to start sshd from the console text menu.

      php: rc.initialtoggle_sshd: sent_event: sent service reload sshd got
kernel: pid 42825 (check_reload_status), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
pfSense check_reload_status: Reloading check_reload_status becuase it exited from an error!

      I can't dig any deeper into check_reload_status (looking for recent problem commits) without signing the TLA.

      If I start /usr/sbin/sshd directly, it bails after failing to read any host keys.

      edit: check_reload_status still dumps core, even if I generate keys manually to get sshd running.

      [Side note: sshd by default is also looking for an ed25519 host key, but that key pair is not generated by /etc/sshd (only rsa1, rsa, dsa and ecdsa are generated).  Generating the ed25519 key by hand quiets sshd when starting up.]

          No good ermal, sshd is still not loading on 2.2-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-20140527-1021. I'm also still seeing a lot of this in the logs:

          
May 28 15:07:59	check_reload_status: check_reload_status is starting.
May 28 15:07:59	check_reload_status: fcgipath /var/run/php-fpm.socket
May 28 15:08:17	php-fpm[66529]: /firewall_rules_edit.php: Beginning https://portal.pfsense.org configuration backup.
May 28 15:08:18	check_reload_status: Reloading check_reload_status because it exited from an error!
May 28 15:08:18	kernel: pid 64474 (check_reload_status), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

          This appears to be preventing firewall rule changes from being loaded until a reboot is performed.

              Today "no gui" snapshot have ssh.

              I will try but the last build is to short only 849668 Bytes (latest-nanobsd-vga-1g.img.gz  29-May-2014 23:36  849668), full seems ok.

              Updating my Hyper-V with 64 full.

              pfSense:
              ASRock -> Wolfdale1333-D667 (2GB TeamElite Ram)
              Marvell 88SA8040 Sata to CF(Sandisk 4GB) Controller
              NIC's: RTL8100E (Internal ) and Intel® PRO/1000 PT Dual (Intel 82571GB)

                2.2-ALPHA (i386)
                built on Thu May 29 06:53:30 CDT 2014
                FreeBSD 10.0-STABLE

                I am using the snapshot from the 29th and sshd doesnt start for me either.  If I run '/etc/sshd start' from the console it does start up like someone else mentioned.  If I kill it from the gui it stops.

                If I try to send a message to /var/run/check_reload_status unix socket using send_event("service restart sshd"); from the php 'Command Prompt' menu item under Diagnostics I see the log event that sshd was started but it doesn't actually start.  I don't believe it is executing sshd though because the SSH keys were never generated using the gui (which uses send_event()).  When I started sshd using the console with '/etc/sshd start' command though I saw the gui message system pop up an alert that the ssh keys were being generated.

                It seems like the problem is from /usr/local/sbin/check_reload_status or something that it doesn't do right.

                Note:  I applied the latest patches from several hours ago related to sshd before doing these tests.  I also rebooted just to make sure before doing the tests above.

                  Don't know if this is helpful, but like my other posts stated….
                  Reloading for any reason causes a loop that never resolves itself.
                  I post here regarding OP's issue with SSH because in an attempt to get the GUI working I reverted to a snapshot from the 26th, and found the the reload still endlessly loops, even though I had mistakenly assumed everything was functioning okay from that early point.

                    As I posted in another thread my CPU is at 100% all the time because of check_reload_status process eating it all.  The gui still seems functional for me.  Some things are slow at times though.  I really wish I could run an strace on check_reload_status like I do on programs running on Linux systems to see where it is spending it's time or look for errors in system calls.

                      I haven't tried it but would this work?

                        Thanks!  That is what I was looking for in freebsd.

                        It looks like it is in an infinite loop trying to read from a bunch of file descriptors (or unix sockets?).  I don't know enough about check_reload_status to know what it is supposed to do but it seems like there is no data to read according to the = 0.  Maybe the wait time in the loop is not actually waiting for some reason.  It is eating 100% CPU just checking if data is available.

                        I assume kevent is supposed to block (until some timeout) until data is available but it appears to be returning even when there is no data pretty quickly.

                          Good news and bad news….

                          The good:
                          I updated to the latest snapshot from the 30th and now ssh works and check_reload_status doesn't eat up the CPU anymore!

                          The bad:
                          Now the gui doesn't work for me anymore.  I just get a timeout.  Doh.

                            It is getting a connection it seems.  If I go to the IP address using a browser instead of the name i get a certificate warning but then just a white screen with a waiting for IP message as the status waiting for data and eventually get a 'No data received' error from Chrome.

                              Thanks!  That is what I was looking for in freebsd.

                              NP, Glad it worked for you!
