      Good day, all! I upgraded to 23.05.1 when it was available. Recently I've noticed the error below in the Dashboard. I'm running python in both Unbound and pfBng. I've reloaded all many times, un/reinstalled, tried moving /var and /tmp to ramdisk and back. I know it's probably in the logs somewhere but I can't find anything. Any chance it's just cosmetic?

        Have you tried to delete /var/log/pfblockerng/py_error.log ?

          @fireodo No, but I'll try. It's zero byte anyway.

            In this case it has to be something else ... 🤔

                Did not help. Weird. You may be on to something with the py_error.log.

                Deleted the logs one by one and finally the py log threw a php error. Will continue.

                  Yeah, something with the logs. I had knocked the pfB logs down to 100 entries and had no issues. Raised them to the default 20K and caught the error. Back to 100, it's fine. Oh well, I guess I'm good.

                    Are you using a RamDisk or is your space limited in some way? Anyway glad that you resolved the issue ...

                      @fireodo No real limitations. I have 16GB RAM and a 64GB SSD. Tried both disk and 4GB ramdisk with 20K entries (which is listed as default) and had the error. It's really a killer box (i7) for a single user.

                        Very strange - I have a tiny box (compared to yours) and now problems with standard settings ... 🤔

                          @fireodo If I may ask, when you look at your pfB log file config, is the box filled as 20,000 or 20000 (without comma)? I was trying to find where these numbers are saved, but not yet found. I was wondering if the comma had anything to do with it, but don't change anything on my account. I can't even load 1,000 successfully.

                              @fireodo Thanks for that. Guess I'll just stick to 100 here. Maybe a crush and rebuild would help but probably not that important in my tiny environment. Thanks again.

                                  Just updating this. Turned out to be a bad SmartTV blocklist causing the error.
