        Same issue here. Seen this error twice after upgrading to 2.7.0 on July 1st.

        I also see references to Nut Package (which is installed).

        I applied the patch as referenced above, I'll report back with results.

                        There is another change I committed a couple weeks ago that might help with that, 596a88fa42f0ac77bd2fc2be87b54457df11f64b but I'm not sure if it applies cleanly on a patched or unpatched release. You can try, though.

                        But the problem is still someone trying to do a function as a non-privileged user that should be performed by root.

                          Thanks @jimp

                          As mentioned previously, I saw this on my 6100 (with the NUT package and an APC UPS) many times when running 23.01. FYI, I never saw it with 23.05 over several months, but saw it again with 23.05.1 (coinidence?).

                          Anyway, I just installed all recommended patches plus commit 596a88fa42f0ac77bd2fc2be87b54457df11f64b and will report back if I experience this issue again.

                                Have you only seen that one time? If you remove the error does it return? Can you trigger it repeatably?

                                  @stephenw10 it is a permanent failure. The new LE Cert is not in use because of that error.

                                    So it regenerates exactly the same error everytime the ACME cert renew script runs?

                                    And this just started happening, it didn't start after upgrading for example?

                                      @stephenw10 No, the cert is issued correctly. It is just not used anymore be the pfsense webserver. Sometimes i need to restart the webgui with /etc/rc.restart_webgui after a new cert has been issued periodically. So i did and then this error comes up. Now it comes again and again with the restart of the webgui. And after the upgrade to 23.5.01 the old cert was still in use. Only now after the new one has been issued this happens.

                                        How are you triggering a restart of the GUI from ACME?

                                            If you are trying that from your own non-root user then I could see it generating a PHP error because it lacks the privileges.

                                            But ACME is capable of restarting the GUI on its own properly as a part of the renewal process, it's one of the given examples in the settings for each certificate:

                                            068b411b-567d-41bc-b8ec-5e82d90eca9a-image.png

                                            Only root/admin could run that at the CLI over SSH, other accounts would need to run it through sudo.
