      I had to do a config restore and it didn't go well until it rebooted, I had to force a webconfigurator restart and disable pfBLockerNG-develp and reboot and then it did the package reinstall.

      Until I did that the services page looked like a Christmas tree with half the services failed.

      Once I disabled PFB and rebooted, the f/w came right up and THEN re-installed the packages as expected after a restore.

      Very weird. I have a pretty simple config.

      Frme the boot messages:

      ...
      Syncing OpenVPN settings...done.
      route: route has not been found
      route: route has not been found
      route: route has not been found
      route: route has not been found
      Configuring firewall.Segmentation fault (core dumped)
      Starting CRON... done.
      ...

      When I disable PFB the core doesn't dump.

      So I don't know if it's an OpenVPN problem or a PFB problem yet.

        Your issue could be related to https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11551 and https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11466

          @viktor_g I think it's a module sequence install problem.

          I nuked my PFB config and re-did it after a module re-install and chose the same config, then it works fine even after restart.

          Methinks there's some dependency issue with startup configs.

          I'm still getting the route not found error in the startup logs but now no core dump.

            FYI Had the same issue upgrading from 21.02.2 to 21.05.

            Firewall process would coredump on boot. I had to remove the pfSenseNG-devel package for boot to take place normally.

              You need to install the System Patch package https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/development/system-patches.html
              and apply patch from https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11466#note-32 for fix this issue

                  @viktor_g Seems to have worked! No core dumps on "Configuring firewall..." boot status messages.
