[SOLVED] pfBlockerNG - Reloading unbound fails

[BBcan177]

Enable "Suppression" in the pfBlockerNG General Tab, then run a "Force Reload - All" and see if that fixes it for you…

Does this command execute ok?

unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf status

[fpv]

Enabled suppression and tried again, still the same.

And no, the command does not execute OK:

error: Error setting up SSL_CTX client key and cert

Something is wrong with the Resolver installation… Leave DNSBL disabled for now, and post in the DHCP/DNS section to see how to fix that issue with the base software...

Make sure to post what version of pfSense you are using. Or maybe try a fresh install and copy back you current config?

Once you have the Resolver functional, then re-enable DNSBL...

[fpv]

All right, thanks for your help.

One more thing: When I ran the unbound-control command just then I was NOT logged in as admin/root, but as another user who I thought had the same rights, which does not seem to be true. Running as root gives me

unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf status
error: SSL handshake failed

I don't know how, but a reboot seems to have fixed it. unbound doesn't throw any errors, and DNSBL work as they should.

[Coornail]

I had the same problem, restart didn't work for me.

What did help is that I disabled EasyPrivacy in DNSBL EasyList.

Not sure why this happened exactly, but maybe it will help people out who find this topic.

[lmannyr]

I had this same Error: Reloading Unbound… Failed to Reload... Restoring previous database.... Not completed.

Disabling EasyPrivacy in DNSBL EasyList also worked for me.

Using PFSense 2.4.2 p1 latest release

I had the same issues and found another solution:

Sometimes the certificates generated by ubound are not valid (by time/date/etc.).

Solution: delete all certificates from ubound in the folder /var/ubound/ - than restart pfsense/ubound.

[noplan]

same here,
after deleting

unbound_control.key
unbound_control.pem
unbound_server.key
unbound_server.pem

reboot everything worked no error in

unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf status

Hello, I am a beginner in pfsense, please can you tell me what are the commands to delete these files? or is there an interface to remove them?

@noplan

It worked for me, thanks everyone.

[noplan]

cool thing !
have fun & stay safe nP

[juanzelli]

@noplan Many thanks. Removing those files (dated 1969) and restarting the Unbound service worked for me
