Unbound -never- starts on a reboot

[LeftCoastGeek]

any time I reboot my pfsense, whether due to update or just because I had to, the unbound service doesn't start, I have to go into the web UI and start it manually.

i have NO idea why this is happening. its been doing this for the past half dozen updates, probably longer. I just installed 2.4.5 and boom, again.

fyi, after this 2.4.5 upgrade, here's the console log ...

@LeftCoastGeek said in Unbound -never- starts on a reboot:

Starting DNS Resolver...done.

It started.

Check the DNS logs to find out why/when it stopped, was restarted, and what was pfSense doing a couple of seconds just before that. What happened when it restarted. etc.

I've looked at that stuff before and not found anything out of the ordinary

So you're say it's just dying ?

Go to console ssh option 8 and type :

ps ax | grep unbound
