Problem with web uploads in new dansguardian 2.12.0.3
-
Since upgrading to the new version of dansguardian, I've been unable to get anything that does a web based upload to work (instagram or faxorama for example). No matter what I set "maxuploadsize" to, uploads always fail with the denied message "Web upload is banned." I can get around it by entering an "exception" for each site, but that's not what i want… I want to be able to do uploads.
Any idea why this is not working? I've tried setting maxuploadsize to a high value and to -1 in both the general config and the config for my groups... but nothing seems to make any difference.
Thanks!

Just as some added information. I have confirmed that this is only an issue for the 2.12.0.3 version of dansguardian. I copied the dans executable from the packages that were created for 2.12.0.0 and 2.12.0.2 and both work just fine using the exact same config files - just copying over the executable.
My guess is that this bug (fairly confident it is a bug) has something to do with the "fix" relating to maxuploadsize that is noted in the 2.12.0.3 release notes…
-
Looked at the "diff" file for Patch 11 (the dg patch relating to maxuploadsize) and it seems obvious that something is amiss… I'm not sure why FOptionContainer.cpp isn't picking up the maxuploadsize from my group config (dansguardianf1.conf) file but it definitely is not...
BTW Marcelo, if you can get 2.12.0.3 working the diff makes it clear that you can remove maxuploadsize from the dansguardian.conf (and the limits screen). The code to read it in OptionContainer.cpp was removed!
As for me, I'm currently using the 2.12.0.2 dansguardian executable - although I'm a little nervous about the "memory leaks" that were supposedly fixed in 2.12.0.3.

Are you using package version 0.1.7_1?
-
Yes. 0.1.7_1 Even tried uninstall/reinstall several times. Per my previous messages, I've tried every possible combination I can think of for setting the maxuploadsize value in both the limit and group settings. I also checked that the GUI was setting maxuploadsize correctly in dansguardian.conf and dansguardianf1.conf. Bottom line… everything is working fine from the GUI package perspective, but the 2.12.0.3 dansguardian executable doesn't seem to read the setting - no matter what I try. If I simply swap the dansguardian executable for the 2.12.0.2 or 2.12.0.0 version, everything works fine.
Also... like I said in my previous post, when/if we actually get 2.12.0.3 working - you can see from the patch diff file that the maxuploadsize setting in dansguardian.conf is no longer used. You could remove it from the "limits" page...
Are you using package version 0.1.7_1?

It's not working even if you set it to -1 on group options?
-
I had said the same last week when I installed the newly released version.

Tried that already. Does not work.

Agreed…. it does not work with -1 in the group options... I also tried setting it to a value... doesn't work.

I've fixed the code. ;D
The patch 11 was malformed and broke up web upload check.
I did not pushed it to dansguardian devel or freebsd patch yet.
Test my dansguardian package and see if it works
I've also included the code to limit upload size(was not working on 2.12.0.2 AFAIK)

Thanks Marcello… that's awesome! I'm currently traveling - so I won't be able to check it till Friday. Will let you know as soon as I do though...

Marcello when will you push the patch?
-
Marcello when will you push the patch?
I've pushed it to dansguardian sourceforge project.
But not for freebsd ports.
I'm waiting feedbacks to see if there are other bugs that I can help to fix.
-
Seems to work. Thanks!
-
I am a noob to freebsd but faced the same problem above, I downlaoded the new package (modified) extracted dansguardian from sbin and pasted it in sbin of my pfsense box and it worked
Is it necessary to replace the other files? -
no, just dansguardian bin.
I've uploaded dansguardian bin to my personal repo :)
i386
killall dansguardian
cd /usr/local/sbin
fetch http://e-sac.siteseguro.ws/pfsense/8/dansguardianamd64
killall dansguardian
cd /usr/local/sbin
fetch http://e-sac.siteseguro.ws/pfsense/8/amd64/dansguardian -
patched binary worked for me, Thanks!
-
ditto on the fix, thanks! ;D

I have just set up Dansguardian for a large site and have experienced the same "web upload is banned" as reported in this thread.
Package Manager shows 2.12.0.3pkg v.0.1.7_3.
I've tried downloading the patched binary from http://e-sac.sitesguro.ws/pfsense/8/amd64/dansguardian
after killing dansguardian.
When I try to start the new binary I get the message:/usr/local/sbin/dansguardian: 1: Syntax error: ")" unexpected
./dansguardian.sh WARNING: failed to start dansguardianAre you able to help me here, and in particular what steps do I need to follow to resolve the "web upload is banned" problem - thanks
PS. to be able to save this post, I had to put an exception for forum.pfsense.org into the sites exception list, to avoid having this post blocked by the same error for which I am seeking help!
