Something is strange with the latest build

nocer

Hi

My apologies, 'cos I was kinda rush for recover and didn't make copies, but there's no difference as far as /tmp/rules.debug is concerned. I also remember the system couldn't set WAN address even WAN was up and running with IP address assigned by PPPoE;

*** Welcome to pfSense 1.3-ALPHA-ALPHA-pfSense on pfsense ***

WAN(WAN)* -> em0 -> NONE
LAN(LAN)* -> em1 -> 192.168.101.1

pfSense console setup

0) Logout (SSH only)
…snip...

So I suspected everything $WAN related in the rules, especially port forwarding, got dropped.
*However, I was able to see WAN address in the WebGUI via Interface stats/gadget.

@ermal:

Can yo uplease post the generated /tmp/rules.debug?

Or if you can find any differences between the working version and this one would be even better.

I will keep evidence next time.

cheers,

Stef

You're not alone,

I've got the same problem.

I started having that problem 2 nights ago.

Didn't change rules before the problem either.

Upgraded yesterday evening and still same problem.

Will look tonight if I find the debug info and up it

All outgoing trafic works fine.

Would like to add a me to. Below is my build information.

Hi

just bumps…anybody touched any new builds since then? I must keep my box running for this week end and won't have time to play.

cheers,

I had this problem on 1.3-ALPHA-ALPHA built on Thu Oct 9 08:43:51 EDT 2008

I had to open edit for each rule and save it again and then apply changes then it worked but I had only just upgraded from 1.2 so assumed it was to do with the upgrade (full new install then restore the xml to the new install)

Stef

Hi after the last update thursday evening, it's still not ok.

here's the /tmp/rules.debug

rules.txt

If possible, can you give me output of ifconfig command and the output of cat /tmp/pppoe0_router?

greyman

ermail, I have an interface pppoe0 when I run ifconfig -a but there is no such file /tmp/pppoe0_router.

eri--

Can you give me the output of ifconfig just the pppoe0 interface one you can clear the adresses if you want

greyman

pppoe0: flags=88d1 <up,pointopoint,running,noarp,simplex,multicast>metric 0 mtu 1492
inet6 fe80::200:24ff:fec9:54cc%pppoe0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xf
inet 70.252.167.xxx –> 70.252.167.xxx netmask 0xffffffff</up,pointopoint,running,noarp,simplex,multicast>

nocer

Hi

Jee…still no luck. I neither find /tmp/pppoe0_router so here's ifconfig(changed MTU accordingly to fit my ISP's)

pppoe0: flags=88d1 <up,pointopoint,running,noarp,simplex,multicast>metric 0 mtu 1454
inet6 fe80::204:23ff:fea7:f8b6%pppoe0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7
inet 219.102.xxx.xxx --> 210.165.xxx.xxx netmask 0xffffffff

And, compared /tmp/rules.debug bit by bit for both working 1002-build and the several non-working builds from 11th/12th. The rules are identical. No changes made, no remove, no modify, nothing.

What's next?

cheers,</up,pointopoint,running,noarp,simplex,multicast>

greyman

I can add one thing. when looking for /tmp/pppoe0_router I found /tmp/vr1_router. vr1 in my case is the port that my AT&T speedstream DSL modem is attached to.

eri--

Can you please retry with next snapshot.

greyman

That should not be a problem. This is a home network and I have a 4801 running off a CF for when things break ;-). Just let me know the build time I am looking for that you want me to test.

nocer

Hi

Yeah, I was thinking to have spare 2.5"HDD for the situation like this, actually look'n for some CF solution instead… :P

@ermal, Thank you always for you dedication. Really looking forward to playing the next snap.

Looks like the last snapshot to be generated was on the 10/11/2008. So I guess we are looking for anything that is newer than your post ermal.

I also second nocer's comments about your time and dedication.

greyman

No go… ;(

Here is the build info: built on Mon Oct 13 22:27:46 EDT 2008

ifconfig pppoe0

pppoe0: flags=88d1 <up,pointopoint,running,noarp,simplex,multicast>metric 0 mtu 1492
inet6 fe80::200:24ff:fec9:54cc%pppoe0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xd
inet 70.255.104.xxx --> 70.255.105.xxx netmask 0xffffffff

There are no files referencing vr1 or pppoe0 in /tmp</up,pointopoint,running,noarp,simplex,multicast>

nocer

Hmmm….still no good. I dunno why this is happening. Keeps me staying at way old build...but works fine though :P
NO NO, I'm not complaining, just want to help brush up 1.3-AA builds.

Cheers,

greyman

Since I use AT&T DSL I have the luxury of being able to change the location from where my PPPoE occurs. I moved the PPPoE back to the DSL modem and switched pfSense from doing PPPoE to DHCP on the WAN interface and all is working. So this appears to be something limited to doing PPPoE on the WAN.

FYI: ermal, if you need me to do some some testing I have a spare DSL modem that is configured not to do PPPoE that I can switch out for testing.

Can you all please post the files
/var/etc/mpd_wan.conf /var/etc/mpd_wan.links?
Or if you have the pppoe on an optional interface even the
/var/etc/mpd_opt#.conf and /var/etc/mpd_opt#.links

and the respective config.xml part under
<interfaces>netstat -rn
and arp -a output</interfaces>
