      Is there somewhere in particular we can check to see when this major issue is resolved? Like a release page or email?

          Yup there. But we will also post here and on the blog etc. It should be pretty hard to miss.

            Thank you for getting this resolved. I've been quietly waiting. Thankfully manual restarts haven't caused me too much grief and my remote instance held strong somehow (which gets much more traffic.)

              Is Snort still not working or is it just not starting correctly?

                The 21.02p1 update released today addresses only https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11444.

                By doing we could get the required testing completed faster the fix released to impacted users.

                The issue with the Snort package is being worked on now. Since that is a package issue it can be fixed outside of the pfSense releases.

                  @stephenw10 Understood. Be nice if we could communicate a more global situational awareness...

                    See the Redmine entry for that in this thread.

                    Netgate: kudos on the super fast turnaround on the SG-3100 fix.

                    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.

                          You can track the Snort issue here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11466. This one may take several days to figure out and clear up.
