Title: Dashboard firewall widget "Waiting for data"
Post by: Waschbuesch on November 16, 2024, 07:47:32 AM
Hi all,

I have recently upgraded my two OPNsense firewalls to 24.7 (running 24.7.8 to be precise).
On one the firewall dashboard widget works perfectly.
On the other (*very* busy FW - there are loads of logs available), the widget will endlessly display 'Waiting for data...'

I tried to compare the settings and everything seems identical on the two setups except the one where the widget works is a 'normal' setup while the one where the widget does not work is a 'transparent filtering bridge' type setup.

Also noteworthy: All other visualizations concerning FW-related stuff like Insight or the Firewall:Log Files:Overview work perfectly on both systems.

Any ideas what I may be missing / how to get this to work?

Thanks,
Martin

I suppose I should have tried that before posting, but: Using "Reset Log Files" solved the issue and everything works now on both FWs.

I do have the exact same issue after updating from 24.7.12-4 to 25.1.1.

I tried the "Reset Log Files", but that did not work for me. The Firewall widget does not display anything other than "Waiting for data...".

I too have a setup with 2 firewalls (Primary / Standby). The Standby firewall has no problem with the widget, but the primary has the issue. (the primary was fine prior to the update when it was running 24.7.12-4).

Got the same widget "Waiting for data..." error today when updating from 25.1.3 to 25.1.4. Clear log had no effect. Not such big deal though, leave it for now...

Did you install the hotfix 25.1.4_1 already?

This is the wrong thread for the 25.1.4 issue that was already hotfixed.  :)
