      But the question is: Is netgate the maintainer now? We have no information, and theoretically this update could come from some other source and was accidentally approved without throrough review (Given the bug is still there, I'm guessing there has been no review.....)

      Ehh no. The 3.1.0_4 build was supported up until recently by BBCAN, and until pfSense has made a new release (2.7/22.11) another pfBlockerNG-devel release is not needed unless it fixes the problem _4 had.

      What problem did _4 have? I am a long user of this package and was not aware of any bugs/issues.

        and as far as I can tell people are still applying the same "fix" by removing the ")" in line 4136.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          I don't see any issues listed in any of the messages, that I have ever had. Granted I don't use Netgate hardware and only run CE 2.6.0. Swap space is always 0% and CPU usage is never spikes above about 3%.

          By the way I'm running Snort as well as pfBlockerNG.

            Before the pitch forks come out... I am still here and nothing has changed but its been challenging lately ... working on a release which should hopefully be available later this week or next week for the 2.6 and 2.7 branches. Thanks for the patience!

            Its been quite a ride since 2014:

                    @bbcan177 This is the best news in a long time given the slightly shaky rumours that have been circulating.

                    Thank you for your excellent work - your package is what makes pfSense the best solution around :-)

                    Love the no fuss of using the official appliances :-)

                      I don't see any issues listed in any of the messages, that
                      I have ever had.

                      This is also not a must be for everybody I would be glad about to see the same here, but I am also using very old
                      hardware and perhaps to "small foot print" for this load.
                      PC Engines APU4D4

                      Granted I don't use Netgate hardware and only run
                      CE 2.6.0.

                      It is an software problem so it should be nothing to do
                      with the hardware it selfs, but with much packages installed and much of list feeds, snort rules and av signatures it is perhaps here and there able to point on.

                      Swap space is always 0% and CPU usage is never
                      spikes above about 3%.

                      Only my AV signatures are taking 1 GB - 1,7 GB of ram and I only own 4 GB hard soldered on the board! So 4 GB swap is not such a great thing if you have to deal with a bunch of rules and lists.

                      By the way I'm running Snort as well as pfBlockerNG.

                      Me too, but it comes squid & squidguard plus clamav on top of it and with some lists I havenΒ΄t seen such numbers
                      before like you. And WiFi and FreeRadius are not activated
                      at this time. I really think it should be in the near future another box more strong or powerful.

                        As I understand the issue, it’s related to a change in the logging format pfsense uses in pfSense+ 22.05
                        That release is as far as I remember a pfsense+ release only - there where no CE 2.6.1 or whatever that could have been called.
                        I might remember wrong, but CE2.6 came with pfsense+ 22.01

                          CE branch (CE tree)
                          pfSense CE 2.5 > 2.6 > 2.7.....

                          Developer branch (devel tree)
                          pfSense x.y devel is even a developer version for testing out
                          using at home and/or in some rarely cases, only.

                                I upgraded from _4 to _6, had to manually restart unbound (as usual), and had to reapply the pre-existing patch in /net/usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc

                                ...
                                -                $r = explode(')', $result, 2);
                                +                $r = explode(' ', $result, 2);
                                ...
                                

                                Watching the git commits, there was activity in the pfblockerng.inc file but not the above change.

                                Is there a Redmine bug tracking that?

                                    FYI, 3.1.0_7 is out now with the included fix... Just installed it on my 6100 and everything is working fine.

                                        Same here. This is only my 2nd time upgrading pfBlocker and I guess that's expected behavior.

                                            @jmv43-0 It is, which is why I just posted that. I noticed it as an available upgrade in Package Manager on my 6100 running 22.05+. Plus he already said it would be coming out this week.
