OpenVPN could not be established after upgrade to 23.01 on SG-3100
-
I would add the line to disable ichsmb on the 4860 before upgrading @johnpoz
You lose nothing by having it there. We will likely add that by default in 23.05.
If you're not on the console you won't notice anything anyway. -
@stephenw10 thanks I was thinking of that.. Any reason why a clean install might be good - change to the zfs layout or anything. I was thinking I should be able to test the zfs rollback feature with this update as well.
So should I be able to rollback to 22.05 after an update to 23.01?
-
Yes you can roll back to 22.05 from 23.01. But not to 22.01.
There's no particular reason a clean install should be any better there. IMO at least!
-
@stephenw10 might have to give that a test run ;) I really don't ever see any need for the feature myself - but might be nice to have at least tested it in case of anyone having questions on it at some point.

Same here (SG-3100), OpenVPN service cannot start after 23.01 update.
Is the command kldxref /boot/kernel (described in this thead as a fix) the offcial recommended solution, or should we wait for another workaround? If done, would it be a permanent fix?
Thank you
-
I have use that and seen no issues since. It does survive a reboot.
-
Ok great, thank you!
I will also follow your bug report status.. -
Same here, kldxref /boot/kernel fixed for me as well. 3100
-
I also had this issue with a 3100 and the kldxref /boot/kernel command worked for me too.

@stephenw10 I ended up having this issue on a 1537. Applied the patch from the redmine post and issue is now resolved.
-
@stephenw10 Is this ran through SSH console? I ran via SSH and ran into the following error: kldxref: can't create /boot/lhint.h6bsDi: Permission denied
-
You probably need to be logged in as root or admin to run that.
It should work via Diag > Command Prompt in the webgui though.
-
@stephenw10 worked for me. Thanks for this!
Rankldxref /boot/kernelin Diagnostics > Command Prompt on 3100 and restarted OpenVPN services. fired up immediately. -
The above fix and/or patch worked for me and VPN functionality is working fine with the only perceived exception: when trying to access the pfSense web gui through VPN, it loads some of the page then hangs. From then forward, it seems to corrupt the gui service (PHP?) for any client until the firewall is rebooted (restarting webConfigurator and restarting PHP-FPM did not resolve the issue, reboot was required.) I also tried different browsers, different client machines, and forcing a cache refresh.)
I've tested this through site-to-site as well as remote access through OpenVPN. Everything else through VPN is working fine. Testing included SSH, Remote Desktop, UniFi web gui.
I'm using a Netgate 3100.

works for me as well (3100)
kldxref /boot/kernel
all working after (did not check the pfsense gui though) -

Hmm, that's odd. Do you mean it happens one time after updating the linker hints? Or Whenever you try to access the gui over the VPN even after the reboot?
And does that then also apply to local clients accessing it?

-
@stephenw10 It happens anytime I try to access the pfSense gui via the OpenVPN tunnel. All other communication through VPN is fine and the pfSense gui functions like normal if I do not access it via VPN and if I have not attempted to use it via the tunnel after a reboot, even if it was from another client.
-
Hmm, is it only the webgui, can you ssh to the firewall across the VPN?
-
Dealing with similar result (different cause?) this morning on our 2440. Upgraded HO on Saturday and We've no connectivity this morning (first day office is back since upgrade)
Tunnel is stuck on "Adding Routes to System" and the RO (which did not get the upgrade) is showing "reconnecting: ping-restart". The logs show GDG: problem writing to routing socket. Tried the kldxref /boot/kernel fix but to no effect.
Unable to roll back to previous stable (not offered) so we're putting a spare that's on 22.05 online to replace the borked one.
-
What is it connecting to? The only other report of this was at the other end of a link to a 3100 that had also been updated and required the above fix. But if that was the case here it would still fail after you replaced the local end.
You did not also see logged:
ERROR: FreeBSD route add command failed: external program exited with error status: 1Which would indicate some sort of route conflict.
