      some kind of race condition at boot maybe, also if i wait some hours the tunnel start to work alone. but it's faster if i reboot until it start working. idk the problem started last week just after i moved pfsense from bare metal to esxi, probably something to do with that

        @kiokoman I've noticed that bare metal vs Hyper V behave differently in subtle ways.

          ok i think that i found what's going on, if i disable openvpn before restarting pfsense the tunnel work.
          so i have to disable openvpn, restart pfsense, and when it's up i can start the openvpn otherwise i have trouble

            Looks like there are no error messages on the latest STABLE snapshots.

              do we no longer have to apply that patch manually?
              I have not yet had time to update and verify

                    Waiting for https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/773 to be merged. I have no problems with patched binary.

                      @kiokoman It appears you are still using the patched binary. I had my main pfSense running for 35+ days with the patch, so I am reasonably certain that it is a good work around for the issues in stable-12.

                        Yep, it can be true, I have found it right after installing STABLE. I looked for a error messages, did not found it and did

                        pkg install -f -y radvd

                        It downgraded my version back to that one which is in the pfSense repository and sorry guys but it failed the same way as before. I just forgot that another one error message

                        IPv6 forwarding on interface seems to be disabled, but continuing anyway

                        got its own fix and I thought that the current version was updated so sorry guys for false hope!

                          ah ok, then the upgrade didn't remove the patched radvd, well no problem it works, I'm happy

                            I'm running the latest development release:

                            2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT (amd64)
                            built on Wed Jun 03 13:09:01 EDT 2020
                            FreeBSD 12.1-STABLE

                            This morning, I noticed the routing log filled with this message:

                            Jun 7 10:01:16 radvd 76671 can't join ipv6-allrouters on hn1

                            IPv6 was not working. I rebooted and the system is now working.

                                I also notice many messages like "Jun 11 11:02:57 pfSense radvd[84278]: can't join ipv6-allrouters on ix1.116"

                                However I would like to add:

                                • after installing the 3 june package a few days ago ..... they were gone
                                • today I installed the 10 june package and they where back
                                • and I did have an IPV6 routing problem ...
                                • than I did a reboot and ... the messages where gone
                                • and my IPV6 routing issue seems to be gone

                                Note that this is not at all an real test, just a quick obeservation.

                                Louis

                                  The routing log was full of the messages this morning, so the problem is still present.

                                    As @rschell said https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/773 still need to be applied, but it's not accepted and applied yet.

                                      I updated Redmine issue #9577 with a revised RADVD install package for those continuing to experience problems. I left instructions there how to install.

                                      I have had installs run for more than 35 days with the revised RADVD only to stop it to install new 2.5 updates..

                                        @w0w I tried to apply the patch to 2.5.0-development using this commit ID: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/773/commits/387a6ef1e4fd514596502e162878f64f0002170c, but it could not be applied. Am I doing something wrong?

                                          @bimmerdriver Not sure, I rebase my git with every update and it works here.
                                          Are you applying it to the ports Git? What errors are you getting?

                                            @rschell I didn't do anything with git. I tried to apply the patch directly to the development snapshot and it failed. I guess that's the problem.
