Title: [SOLVED] FRR Widget problem
Post by: odites999 on January 14, 2018, 04:18:40 pm: Hi!

I've just upgraded to OPNsense 18.1.r1-amd64. Every thing is working OK except the FRR Service that does not appear in the widget (image attached). However, it's working ok, doing what is supposed to do.

Could you please take a look?

Thanks in advance,

A copy+paste fail indeed, thanks for your report!

Fixed via: https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/commit/7bc1c2088

You can try this by patching your system:

# opnsense-patch -c plugins 7bc1c2088

Cheers,
Franco

After the 18.1 update, the widget problem has appeared again. FRR is not started at boot.

Post by: franco on January 29, 2018, 02:36:15 pm: Er... we fixed the service probing, not the startup (if that was indeed an issue it was not handled as such).

"However, it's working ok, doing what is supposed to do." seemed to reinforce that assumption.

Post by: odites999 on January 29, 2018, 02:49:47 pm: Yes it does its job, once you have manually started the service, not before. Probably I did not explain it very well. Sorry. In my case, RIP routing is used by TV Service so I must start the service to be able to watch TV.

Post by: fabian on January 29, 2018, 07:20:25 pm: @fichtner - the plugin seems to create the correct config because "service frr start" starts it without issues. This means there is probably some trouble with booting the device since it should be started by rc.d.

Post by: odites999 on February 28, 2018, 08:56:38 am: I have applied the patch (opnsense-patch -c plugins f26a704f9) but the problem is still there... no automatic start of FRR after rebooting the system.

Post by: franco on February 28, 2018, 08:59:57 am: I don't know if it patches ok. Locally it worked. If not it would probably be beneficial if somebody started looking into why the service fails who has a proper setup. I don't believe there is no clever person around to find and fix this over the course of a month.

Post by: mimugmail on February 28, 2018, 11:23:29 am: The patch is just missing a chmod 755, then it's working ;)

chmod 755 /usr/local/etc/rc.syshook.d/50-frr.start

Post by: franco on February 28, 2018, 03:24:03 pm: chmod in opnsense-patch worked for core, but not for plugins...
