Title: Handling errors in OPNSense
Post by: Spiky_Gladiator on February 01, 2023, 09:40:19 pm

Hi,

When booting up my OPNSense, I have noticed that there are quite a few errors poping up at every boot of my device. The errors are:

Error in early script "Carp"

Generating Configuration: Configd socket missing

Generating Configuration: Carp socket missing

Quote

PFLog0: Permanently Promiscuous Mode Enabled

This error I found somewhere in the Web GUI:

Quote

Error Configd.py [Some Type of ID] returned exit status 1

My questions here are:

• What types of errors I should worry and be looking out for to make sure everything is fine with OPNSense ?
• Does anyone know anything about the above errors and if they are normal ? I tried searching for the Carp error but didn't found much about it besides being served fish pictures and links on Google.
• Is there any way I can view the whole boot up log to look up all the errors ? There are probably some that I haven't managed to note as the boot up process is too quick. Is this action even necessary to perform ? How do you handle errors in OPNSense or know something is wrong ?

Thanks

try first with dmesg. Hopefully log messages around the errors will give some context.
