pfsense log error

SpaceXTexnologiya

Hİ,
I reinstalled the pfsense environment and reverted to the config via the old full backup. After that, these errors are repeated in the log file.
15:40:04 pf root[35361]: /usr/sbin/service: WARNING: $expiretable_enable is not set properly - see rc.conf(5).
Apr 9 15:40:04 pf root[52858]: /usr/sbin/service: WARNING: $microcode_update_enable is not set properly - see rc.conf(5).
Apr 9 15:40:05 pf root[72074]: /usr/sbin/service: WARNING: $mpd_enable is not set properly - see rc.conf(5).
Apr 9 15:40:06 pf root[74298]: /usr/sbin/service: WARNING: $dhcp6c_enable is not set properly -

What can I do about this
Thanks.

expiretable_enable

These messages show up after you imported your own config.xml ?
If so (although I doubt) : reset back to default, don't use that file anymore.

Check for yourself the file /usr/local/etc/rc.d/microcode_update
The value "$$microcode_update_enable" is set : line 72 :

: ${microcode_update_enable="NO"}

Same for expiretable_enable, $mpd_enable and $dhcp6c_enable : these are not used at all by pfSense at all. pfSEnse doesn't 'use' rc.conf.

Where did you get your pfSense installer from ?

@Gertjan hi,
thanks for reply

I didn't check before but I noticed these errors after returning to my config file. I was using the same config file before and I didn't get these errors.

downloaded from this address : https://repo.ialab.dsu.edu/pfsense/

the value was set this way, I did not change it;

: ${microcode_update_enable="NO"}
: ${microcode_update_datadir="/usr/local/share/cpucontrol"}
: ${microcode_update_cpus="ALL"}
: ${microcode_update_flags=""}

You might see those after upgrading because pfSense doesn't use the FreeBSD RC system.

BSD RC system.

Hi @stephenw10
Should I ignore these errors?
After reinstalling, the interruptions continue on pfsense. I'm really tired of not being able to solve this. It gets better after a restart but then it cuts out again and I have to restart pfsense again

Those warnings are expected after installing pkgs which is what happens at upgrade or a clean install with the net installer. They are unrelated to the connection issues.

What I wouldn’t do is download it from some place on the Internet.

No AI or card needed : Google : pfSense download

The very first link is the official answer.

@SpaceXTexnologiya nope, you'll need an Netgate store account but since the cost is 0.- you won't need to enter any card information.

Login, add to card, checkout and download.

Or, for now at least, just use the legacy installer for CE.
