DNS Resolver (unbound) / Can't change config
-
This issue is known, as the thread implies.
But 2.3.5 is old and fading out : 32 hardware is hard to find these days - some devices are kept artificially alive, mostly in museums.
Consider the issue as closed. -
I am running 64 bit, 2.4.4-RELEASE-p1
-
In that case, the issue is totally new - not related to what happened as described 2 years ago - with old pfSense versions.
Maybe some left-overs from an ancient install ?
Did you install 2.4.4-P1 from scratch, or did you upgrade from an older version ? -
very same issue here, brand new hardware, latest version 2.4.4 from scratch, no import of former config
-
Same issue? From a thread from 2 years ago... Please post your exact error your seeing.. What else your running other than clean out of the box pfsense.

When I try to change any settings in unbound I get this error message, can't even disable it :
The following input errors were detected: The generated config file cannot be parsed by unbound. Please correct the following errors: /var/unbound/test/root.key: No such file or directory [1550262886] unbound-checkconf[60539:0] fatal error: auto-trust-anchor-file: "/var/unbound/test/root.key" does not exist in chrootdir /var/unbound
My install worked fine for maybe two weeks, this issue just appeared. Not sure what this is related to.
I did disable pfb_dnsbl and pfb_filter but that didn't solve the issue. Also all the other tricks mentioned in this thread didn't work for me. Didn't try to reboot yet, hopefully tonight...Here are all the services running:

So its not a clean install, you have atleast that package installed. What else? I see avahi, ntop, snort --> So clearly its not related to a problem from 2 years ago.
I would suggest you open a thread in the pfblocker section and yell for @BBcan177 because more likely then not its related to your unbound problem.
-
Well pfblockerNG operate with the assumption that things are in /var/unbound/
Disable DNSBL then see if your mod works. -
I disabled both, pfb_dnsbl and pfb_filter, that didn't help. I don't think it has anything to do with it.
-
Disabling the pfblockerng services doesn't disable DNSBL.

DNSBL modify unbound.conf.
-
rebooting resolved the issue, hope it doesn't reappear.
-
That's one way to recreate the root.key
-
doing it manually as indicated higher up in this thread didn't solve the problem for me.

I am having exactly the same issue on the latest 2.4.4-RELEASE-p3 (amd64). When I go to change the DNS Resolver configuration, just pressing Save without any changes produces:
The following input errors were detected:
The generated config file cannot be parsed by unbound. Please correct the following errors:
/var/unbound/test/root.key: No such file or directory
[1561931530] unbound-checkconf[36495:0] fatal error: auto-trust-anchor-file: "/var/unbound/test/root.key" does not exist in chrootdir /var/unboundFor some reason, it feels that the *.pem and *.key files are not being copied from the parent directory as they definitely exist in the /var/unbound directory.
Does anyone have a solution?

I am also getting this error in a brand new SG5100;
The following input errors were detected:
The generated config file cannot be parsed by unbound. Please correct the following errors:
/var/unbound/test/root.key: No such file or directory
[1572274588] unbound-checkconf[68733:0] fatal error: auto-trust-anchor-file: "/var/unbound/test/root.key" does not exist in chrootdir /var/unboundI ran "unbound-anchor -a /var/unbound/root.key" rebooted and the issue is resolved
-
@RusG3G in my case, I rebooted the firewall and all was good again... Sorry, don't have more details.
-
Also now affected.
This seems really bizarre problem.
Some information.
The problem does "not" occur when my custom unbound configuration is included which I normally do include, but I wanted to revert to solely a auto generated config which in theory is safer but generated the error, if I include my config again, the error is gone eve though I dont configure anything related to the keys.
The 2 commands listed in the thread dont fix anything.
The keys do exist in my /var/unbound, and are dated 2017 so have been there 2 years.
The following commands enabled me to use the save function in the GUI.
cd /var/unbound
cp unbound_server.* test
cp unbound_control.* test
chflags schg /var/unbound/test/unbound_server.*
chflags schg /var/unbound/test/unbound_control.*So basically I manually copy the keys to the test folder, I set the files to be unable to be overwritten and bam it works.
So some kind of script when hitting save is not working as it should.
I do have pfblockerng installed but I would be very surprised if thats breaking this.

unbound-anchor -a /var/unbound/root.keyThis and a reboot helped me. SG-2440
Edit. 2.4.5-Release.
