Latest version is not being detected by pfSense for me. I haven't checked yet, but have you bumped the version?

marcelloc

I've updated the binaries but no changes on gui pkg.

An uninstall/install should update e2guardian to 5.0.2_1

Awesome, I've just gone ahead and updated it. How many HTTP workers do you use Marcello? I was initially using 1000 for home, but it seems it's not enough anymore lol. Sometimes all workers become busy and the internet becomes slow, so I've bumped the HTTP workers up to 2500.

Yes. Its the current v5 develop code.

I still getting some random E2 Guardian crashes here and there, its severely reducing performance. Sometimes. Anyone else having this issue?

I'm also using pfBlockerNG with this, not sure if it matters.

@Marcelloc why did you remove the E2 Guardian start log? It was pretty useful in situations like this.

I didn't. It was removed by robotman3000.

Ah yes, you're right. He removed the entire watch dog code because it caused problems like switching on E2G when it was set to disabled.

However, have you got any ideas why my E2 Guardian could be randomly crashing? It seemed to start when I started experimenting with Traffic Shaper, but I really can't be sure without anything useful in logs. Have you checked to see if it has crashed in your production environment at all?

Other than the hiccup here and there, I've been loving v5. Transparent proxy is awesome, and seems to work well!

EDIT: Found this in the logs now: status_services.php: The command '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/e2guardian.sh stop' returned exit code '1', the output was 'kern.ipc.somaxconn: 16384 -> 16384 kern.maxfiles: 131072 -> 131072 kern.maxfilesperproc: 104856 -> 104856 kern.threads.max_threads_per_proc: 20480 -> 20480 e2guardian not running?

Really unsure how to go about debugging this mess.. But eventually the watchdog wins the battle agains the E2Guardian crashing.

Are you using any authentication?

I'm just using IP Authentication, I tried DNS before but that would give me a seg fault instantly. So I'm sticking to IP for the moment.

No suggestions Marcello? I've got the watch dog running so it does restart E2 Guardian but sometimes it's just a mess. And will crash 5-8x in a row reducing performance and causing disruption.

May be related to https://github.com/e2guardian/e2guardian/issues/375.

I'll compile a version with debug and include some instructions on how to use, so you can see if it's something already related or not.

I just re-did my config as this was bothering me and other users a lot. It seems to be better, but I'll continue to monitor it. It's possible it could've been a config issue and without a meaningful error message it's hard to tell where the problem lies.
