Title: [SOLVED] All settings are gone after reboot
Post by: matdzi86 on March 10, 2017, 11:28:02 pm

Hi all!

I'm new to the OPNsense so hoping for a bit of an advice - I have just installed it as a VM on VirtualBox and for some reason after each reboot, it keeps erasing all settings (interface IPs, installed plugins etc.). Each time it starts, it looks like it is going through the same loop - "Default interfaces not found -- Running interface assignment option." - no matter what I do.

I found a suggestion to install os-boot-delay plugin but again - this is gone once firewall gets restarted

Any idea why would that be happening?

Regards,
Matt

It sounds to me like you haven't actually installed, and are just running off the "live" image.

It seems that you were right but I'm not quite sure what was I doing wrong... I have reinstalled the exact same way and this time it appears to be working fine - thanks for quick reply!!!

I did the same thing, I didn't notice the short window where it prompts you to start the installer.
