Removing WG interface breaks firewall
-
I had a working wg0 interface setup. I added a second wg1 to attempt testing against a different VPN provider. I was having no luck, so I deleted the VPN and interface. At this time i was still having issues getting my original VPN to work again. So I rebooted the firewall and was presented with this on restart.
http://imgur.com/a/khHZquBGoing through the interface setup did not fix the issue, on subsequent reboots it kept complaining about wg0.
In the end I had to factory reset it as even reverting to a previous config from earlier in the day strangely did not resolve it either. -
Are you able to reproduce that?
What you are seeing there is that the two WireGuard interfaces are still assigned and enabled in the config but do not exist yet in the firewall.
However those should not be checked at that point since the interfaces are created after that in the boot. A commit went in to correct that a few days ago:

Thanks. On recent builds i have not been able to replicate it. I believe the above resolved the issue.
