    Hi! I just installed and setup 2.5.2 BETA on my homelab in a VM. I can confirm that Multi-WAN with OpenVPN port forwarding with Gateway Group is working! Very good to see there is movement in the right direction!

    Things I found not working atm:

    • Package manager is not working. When I select the Availabel Packages tab I get the following error: Unable to retrieve package information.
    • Duplicating a rule in Firewall - > NAT -> resets all the fields to default (like adding a new rule instead of duplicating one)

    Let me know how I can help with testing this further. If I have new findings I will post them here.

    --Edit--
    Addes screenshot of system information for reference.

      I can't replicate either of those behaviors. On 2.5.2-BETA here, the package manager works, and duplicating a port forward rule keeps the data in the fields as expected.

        @jimp I did a reboot and I can confirm that package manager works :) Let's call that "pebcac" :P. But the rule duplication in the Firewall -> NAT -> Outbound still is there. When I duplicate an existing rule all the fields are reset to default. I tried this with Safari and Firefox.

        When installing the Wireguard package I get a message that the firewall has encountered an error. This is the output:

        Crash report begins.  Anonymous machine information:

          The WireGuard issue is known and the package maintainer is working to fix it.

          For NAT, you initially said "Firewall > NAT" which is port forwards, you didn't mention Outbound tab rules. I'll give that a try.

            I was able to replicate the rule copy issue with Outbound NAT and opened https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11981. Thanks!

                Hi. I noticed that it has been more than a week ago since there was a new snapshot for 2.5.2 BETA. On the snapshot server I can see that the last snapshot image is 4th of June, which is also the version I am running on my test vm.

                Any progress on newer builds or release date? Thank you.

                  You cant sort the rules anymore/drag and drop them in the GUI.

                  FYI.

                    @cool_corona It works for me.

                    I am running 2.5.2-BETA (amd64) built on Fri Jun 04 03:01:13 EDT 2021 on my test vm.

                      It'll be coming soon, we shut down the public builds since we are working on a rather significant pf update which has a high likelihood of breaking things, and we want to test it all out internally before exposing it to the public to reduce the chance of people hitting problems.

                          Same here, I tried on 2.6.0 and the latest 2.5.2 build we have undergoing testing right now, and drag-and-drop works on both.

                          Usually when that breaks it's something in the browser, an ad or script blocker of some sort which needs an exception for the firewall.

                            I cant get it to work in neither FF or Chrome no matter what.

                            clean install.

                              I tried on a completely fresh install here and it works as expected. I can drag/drop rules and save and they stay where they are supposed to.

                              What specific page are you trying this on?

                              What exactly happens when you try to drag and drop?

                                  I can move the widgets on the dashboard but I dont get the same cursor when hovering the rules or NAT, so I cant move them like the widgets.
