First time that I've been bitten by an apparently bad package update on pfSense... This issue is taking place on 24.03

Stalled with the following output:

I've let it sit for several minutes and note that a couple of the php processes seem to be hapily eating at the CPU trough:

Unfortunately I immediately updated without reading other users' experiences, otherwise I wouldn't have done it.

At this point if I update to version 24.03_1 in the end when I restart everything stops again

What does this command do?

Qinn

@Unoptanio if you cannot get in GUI and load this line in your browser it might work, of course with your login password

@Qinn
I have now restored a backup from files I made in August.
The only problem is that after the restore it takes me back to version 23.09.1 with all the packages in old versions. At this point if I update to version 24.06_1 when doing the final reboot the gui stall problem I initially had occurs again.

I solved my problem by following @stephenw10 suggestions on this thread: https://forum.netgate.com/post/1185688 Thanks Stephen!!

Also needed to kill off a pfblockerng.php cron process left over from the prior devel version.

... 3.2.0.16 is out

Unoptanio

@peroni5
Have you tried, does it work?

Gertjan

@peroni5 said in pfBlockerNG-devel v3.2.0_15:

... 3.2.0.16 is out

Yeah, saw that.
Did a save, a ZFS clone, rebootted from that, and installed the "16".
Saw procs hitting 100 % again as this morning, so I bailed out. I'll give it a 7 days cool-down from now ^^

@Gertjan 3.2.0_17 was released and install etc. is working as it should now

Unoptanio

@Gertjan

This is a great system for testing, ZFS Boot Environment.
Too bad it didn't occur to me

@3aandl

I just installed _17 and that one is fine.

I face same problem after upgrading . But i resolved it.

First Login by ssh then enter shell (8). Then enter cd /usr/local/www/ directory and remove pfblockerng folder . Then make new directory pfblockerng and give directory root:wheel permission. After this process run this cmd

For pfsense plus (

curl -o /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/BBcan177/72d559647564acc6a0b8353b72a40049/raw"

curl -o /usr/local/www/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.php "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/BBcan177/8d67e132ad16b895b5dd8996c22359e3/raw"

for pfsense CE ( curl -o /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/BBcan177/e0347961852bfed16408bae2b475c36a/raw"

After this exit run 16 and 11 . After this process your dashboard will be work.

Thank you very much for the work around.
Had the same issue on 2.7.2 and it fixed it.

revengineer

I confirm, _17 went well and resolves the issue. Thank you!

Unoptanio

@revengineer

with version _17 now everything is ok we are online again

This problem made me discover the usefulness of boot environments

Active one time and reboot

slu

Is the update only available with the -devel package or will pfBlockerNG 3.2.0_8 also receive the update to _17?
