@steveits said in To 2.5.1 or not ? that is the question :):

The PHP core dump on SG-3100 with some packages is not listed as a known issue but presumably still exists...

If you use one of the three packages known to be impacted by that bug (Suricata, Snort or pfBlockerNG-devel), and having one or more of those packages running is critical for you, I would suggest not updating yet. To the best of my knowledge no work has been done on the PHP crashing issue on ARM 32-bit hardware.

2.5.1 wippend out my root partition, recovering right now...

/edit

Back to normal operation again, now 2.5.1 runs here fast and smooth as well.

swampkracker

Flawless upgrade from 2.5.0 to 2.5.1. Everything is working as it should.

Upgrade went smooth on my pfsense CE. I am running several VPN clients tunnels with routing groups and so far all is working well.

Qinn

Smooth update to pfSense 2.5.1 CE

Smooth update on J3160 system.
Only I can not start up iperf.
why?

@pietsnot56
Same here, but a quick reinstall fixed it.

EDIT - Whoops, stopped.

EDIT, EDIT... Rolled back to 2.5.0, iperf still doesn't start. So there's that...

I just updated to 2.5.1.
Some issues here. I have a Plex Server running on another computer. I have VPN running on that one with port-forward and policy routing. The port-forward doesn't work anymore. But the computer can still access Internet with the VPN.
But the only thing that doesn't work is the port-forward :(

Another issue is the DNS Resolver. After reboot of the firewall, i don't have access to internet. Only the computers that have static IP on the interface. I cant access any device using the dns. I have to restart unbound. After that i can access computers with the dns.

The DNS problems was on version 2.5.0 also but not the port-forward problem.
The DNS problems seems to appear when i have multiple VPN Client running. It could be some bad configuration from my side, but it has always worked on version 2.4.5. It starts on version 2.5.0.

So, i'm planing to move back to 2.5.0 or even 2.4.5p1 (not sure when)
To bad i can't run my Plex Server anymore with VPN and port-forward(so my plex server is online and accessible outside my network)

Hi! Your post triggered me to check if my port forwards my VPN clients were working and they are not :(. Reconnecting the VPN's and even rebooting pfSense does not fix this. Looks like port forwarding on OpenVPN interfaces is broken.

I will try and do more testing later on. WFH so I can't break the internet for now.

Hi, thanks for checking this up. :)

I got these in dmesg too on boot since update to 2.5.0 and present in 2.5.1 too - should I worry?

@fireodo Only when it's stuck with this message, like in my case where I couldn't boot anymore.

After a fresh install and config.xml recovery, the system booted again but the messages "Root mount waiting for: CAM" still apears aprox 4 - 5 times.

dmesg | grep CAM
Root mount waiting for: CAM usbus0 usbus1 usbus2

Thanks, it don't stuck here. I got that 5 times in dmesg with my SSD and after changing to HDD it comes also 5 times ... but boot is not affected.

After 2.5.1 my port forwards are not working.
They were fine at 2.4.5 and 2.5.0.

vjizzle

@bismarck Same here. I can see the same CAM messages but system boots fine.

vjizzle

@yanik Do you mean port forward on OpenVPN interfaces? That is what I am experiencing.

Port forwards on WAN seems to work fine here.

Yanik

@vjizzle

Yep, vpn port forwards.
I can reach my server through Lan IP but cant from outside (domain).

vjizzle

I can see in my firewall logs that the ports I forwarded from the OpenVPN interfaces are being blocked. I can allow them using the + sign there (Easy rule option) and they do appear on the firewall rules on that specific OpenVPN interface but it still does not work.

On that specific OpenVPN firewall tab I can see my original port forward rule is also there, beside the Easy rule I just added. But none of them are working it seems.

Dredex

I have dual WAN configuration and port forward only works on the default gateway.
For me upgrading from 2.5.0 to 2.5.1 broke port forwarding on non default gateway.
