Title: Recommendation: Remove "blocklist.site" entries before upgrading to 25.7.10
Post by: zakaron on December 21, 2025, 07:17:40 PM
Whenever I set up the blocklist a while back, I had been using several of the "blocklist.site" entries. I didn't realize they had become stale over the past year as  this was a set-and-forget thing. I saw the release notes mentioned deprecating the "blocklist.site" entries, but didn't give it a thought to remove those before upgrading. Once I upgraded, I found remains of those entries in my list, but since they were removed I could not clean that up. I'm not sure if it caused any further issues, but I just deleted and reconfigured my blocklist under Unbound. You can see in my screenshot the remnants of the "blocklist.site" entries that I once had.

So if you are still using any "blocklist.site" entries, I recommend removing those from your list before upgrading to 25.7.10.

Normally they continue to work until reconfigured, but since the recent blocklists changes require to move data around you're more or less forced into a reconfiguration.  In this case the blocklists already stopped working.

are you using community or business edition?

i have used business edition for the use of my appliance and always used just the blocklist tab.  then check those i wanted to use.
the extended i never used?   

  should i be reconsidering this (it doesn't show Hagazi)   so it seems like a move backwards
