Strange logs -> losing OpenVPN connection every 20 - 120 seconds
-
Hi,
lately my 2.1.1-PRERELEASE pfSense machine is going full retard and I don't know why. I'm losing connection on my OpenVPN site-to-site tunnel every 20-120 seconds. I can't remember changing any setting since the last time everything was still working fine.
Here are some facts:
- I don't use multi WAN right now.
- GW1_DHCP always gets an IPv4 with a very, very high lease time - I've been using my current IPv4 address for about two months now.
- GW1 is a rock solid cable connection, no packet loss, no high latencies.
- I don't use DynDNS at all.
- The OpenVPN endpoint is a pfSense VM on a dedicated server in a data centre that claims to have a 99,999% uptime.

Thanks in advance!

For some reason I can't edit my previous post. :-\
Here are some updates on my case:
- The ISP was nice enough to hook me up with an entirely different dedicated server. Everything has changed, but the IP addresses, which is nice. But that didn't solve the problem.
- I turned off gateway monitoring altogether. This didn't solve the problem either.
- Server sided OpenVPN logs just showed me what I already knew. It's all like "The client disconnected… hey, it's the same client again..."
- Client sided OpenVPN logs are still the same. It detects an IP change (IP address changed to the exact same IP address, yeah, that's exactly what I'd call an IP change as well!) and thus restarts the tunnels, because f*** logic.
- The interface the tunnel is running on / over (pick the right preposition, sorry for my English) is running rock solid. There's no evidence of it going down and thus causing the tunnel to be reestablished.
- I'm using multi WAN now again. I created a second tunnel to the same server over a different interface, just to see if this one would be a bit more stable. But, nope.
Here once again are the logs:

snipEdit: This problem seems to occur almost exactly every fifth minute.
-
The OpenVPN clients are restarted if a WAN seems to go down/up even if the new WAN IP turns out to be the same as the old one. I believe this is because there were (are?) issues with OpenVPN continuing on after such a WAN transition. Restarting them makes sure they re-establish happily.
The DNS translations of Aliases that contain FQDNs are re-checked every 5 minutes. But that happens on my (and many people's) systems without triggering a WAN transition and all the resultant processing.
What is in cron? (Install the Cron package to look at that easily) Any jobs that specify "3-59/5" that would make it start at 00:03 and every 5 minutes thereafter?
Or is there a 5-minute egg timer somewhere on a connected device or cable that glitches it every 5 minutes ;)

I have the same problem, the problem is less since the 2.1.1-PRERELEASE (i386) built on Fri Feb 7 11:46:37 EST 2014
I had to change the "DOWN" time in gateway monitoring to 60 seconds.BUT:
OpenVPN does restart all services, even if there was no change to the WAN-ip:

Wouldn't be such an event logged under "Gateways"? If so, that's not the case.

Just for the lols, how would one disable this?

Nope.```

My OpenVPN tunnel is up and running fine for the last two hours or so. No hiccups at all. I really don't want to switch back to RouterOS tho. I'm already starting to miss pfSense's amazing WebUI. So, please continue help me to get this fixed. :-[

I think you have assigned your ovpn interface.
That activates the monitoring and probably causing a lopping of sorts there.Can you check if you can ping the monitoring ip by default or disable it entirely?
One of those i think will fix your issues. -
@ermal:
Can you check if you can ping the monitoring ip by default or disable it entirely?
One of those i think will fix your issues.- I turned off gateway monitoring altogether. This didn't solve the problem either.
No, it did not. :-\ And I disabled monitoring on all the gateways. They always appear as online, which is why I don't understand most of the logs.
Btw. I had to assign it, because I wanted to transparently route all traffic of one specific workstation.
-
So find a machine to ping on the other side then :)
Though disabling monitoring should have avoided this unless you have other problems in the tunnel.
-
I reverted back to
2.1-RELEASE (amd64)
built on Wed Sep 11 18:17:48 EDT 2013and this oddity is gone for good. Guess I'm going to stick to that for a some more time!

The system log isn't all that telling on its own, what does the OpenVPN log show?
-
Still happening even with latest snapshot. The WAN IP is in fact static, it never changes. These newwanip detections are a pile of BS.
rc.newwanip: pfSense package system has detected an ip change
Same thing happens with IPsec:
php: rc.newipsecdns: IPSEC: One or more IPsec tunnel endpoints has changed its IP. Refreshing.
As for OpenVPN log, nothing useful there either:

Every time a connection/reconnection occurs you see the logs for newwanip.
Do you have anything similar to below in your logs?
log_error("DEVD Ethernet attached event for {$iface}"); log_error("HOTPLUG: Configuring interface {$iface}");
Give this a try again as well:
diff --git a/etc/rc.linkup b/etc/rc.linkup index 1994336..43607b1 100755 --- a/etc/rc.linkup +++ b/etc/rc.linkup @@ -100,7 +100,7 @@ if (!file_exists("{$g['varrun_path']}/booting") && empty($g['booting'])) { break; } $interface = convert_real_interface_to_friendly_interface_name($argv[2]); - if (!empty($interface)) + if (!empty($interface) && substr($argv[2], 0, 4) != "ovpn") handle_argument_group($interface, $action); }

No, no hotplug/devd events in the log. As for the patch, well yes I can try that (should obviously stop triggering the OVPN restart), but it's not really like it'd happen for any good reason at all. It seems like it just decides the WAN IP "changed" a couple of times a day, randomly.

Well if your Dyndns or any other monitoring for hostname changes triggers the event you have to find which is doing that.
Also find out why its triggering the event.To me from the logs it looked like devd was doing that since it was not clear on dyndns/hostnames on vpns being used from the logs.
Maybe the config.xml can help to validate the options here.

Now that you mention dyndns…

Obviously, this again makes no sense since there is nothing dynamic - except for the gateway being statically "dynamic". The GW IP never changes, it is configured as static IP on the GIF interface. What's "updating" there? Again, the WAN_DHCP is a static DHCP lease, never changes.

Can you check the relevant files for this to see why it triggers?

Maybe… if only I knew the relevant files. :D
