Just want to chime in here because I have seen consistent file system corruption when upgrading to 25.7.1

I did some tests on the same production hardware and ran 2 tests which ended the same. B test started with 24.7 upgrade every version and the up from 25.7 to 25.7.1 caused file system corruption, ending up in a reboot and a broken system.

This is a video of the A test where I just upgraded from a freshly installed 25.7 to 25.7.1 and well you can see the results.

Websocket support will be in 1.1 (https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/pull/828)

Oh that is cool. Great!

For the location block: it looks very strange to me to include the hostname. Why?

I think it was more convention than anything else. I took the same sort of rules I used for nginx is the standalone  instance and one of the cool things is nginx (like apache) can have multiple 'identites' in different config files which can be very handy. So if you are coming in as say mail.host.domain you get the webmaill forwarding, if you come in as dashboard.host.domain you get another service. All the $host does is make sure that the urls stay consistent I think.

I assume you knew this because you can allow multiple entries to be created though I am still unclear how they are all supposed to work together with the same nginx.conf file. Or maybe I am just misunderstanding how it is all parsed, it was very late last night when I started  looking into it going off into the weeds.

Either way looks like it is shaping up nicely and I don't mind playing around with it on a non-production install and ironing out other edge cases.

Thanks.

First let me say thanks for this plugin  and it will prove very useful if all the features planned for it get worked out.

However I am coming up to a bit of a brick wall in using the gui because it seem the logic for passing to an upstream server is broken.

Basically what I am trying to do is expose a gucamole server to OPNsense which then acts as a nginx reverse proxy which holds all the Let's Encrypt certs and renewal.

I already did this configuration by hand using a dockerized nginx container which then had traditional NAT mapped to is via the previous routers. It worked fairly well on some dumb routers but for some reason with OPNSense it interrupted the connection every 30 seconds or so breaking the guacamole sessions.

So when I found nginx could be run on the OPNsense box itself I was like "Yeah, that'll do fine " because the guacamole server is exposed to the LAN anyway just on a HTTP alt port 8080.

So the problem I have with the plugin though is the rewrite rules seem to be applied only to the OPNsense HTTP server section and not to the proxy settings as well. Because the destination URL has to be http://10.1.8.12:8080/guacamole I should be able to append the /guacamole part somewhere to the proxy URI.

This is how it worked when I did it  by hand.

    location / {
        root   /usr/share/nginx/html;
        return 301 https://$host/rs;
}

   
location /rs/ {

      proxy_pass  http://172.17.0.7:8080/guacamole/;
      proxy_buffering off;
      proxy_http_version 1.1;
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
      proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
      proxy_set_header Connection $http_connection;
      access_log off;






But this is how the GUI sort of mangles it:

# UPSTREAM SERVERS

}


....

Code Select Expand




    # apache htpasswd and htaccess
    location ~ /\.ht {
        return 403;
    }
    # those files may expose file system stuff
    location ~ \.DS_Store$ {
        return 403;
    }
    rewrite / /guacamole redirect;


location ~* $host/guacamole {
    DeniedUrl "/waf_denied.html";
    if ($scheme != "https") {
        return 302 https://$host$request_uri;
    }
    autoindex off;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_pass http://upstream70b4351bbf6548ba827f620ee5b55029;




So I realise that this is a beta plugin at best and you do say not to use it for production but obviously this way of parsing the conf file is a deal breaker for redirects like mine. I suspect I will have to just go back to making a manual config file and leaving the gui blank in case it overwrites my changes.

Unless there is another way I am missing of course ?

Not sure what is going on here. or even why it is trying to download base-18.1.11-amd64.obsolete?

FTR this is a pre-installed APU2C4 box which came with 18.1. I am trying to change it to a production version.

Any pointers? Must admit I am kinda new to OPNsense but have used pfsense in the past so it is not totally foreign to me.

Thanks.
