OK, thanks. I guess it was a daft question.

I'm running 25.1.1 and I want to install a plugin, but when I try I get the message:

***GOT REQUEST TO INSTALL***
Currently running OPNsense 25.1.1 (amd64) at Sun Mar 23 15:11:28 CET 2025
Installation out of date. The update to opnsense-25.1.3 is required.
***DONE***

Is there a way around this? I don't want to update to 25.1.1 on this production system just yet.

As per title. I have no dhcpd log file entries showing in the GUI.

I can see the log files in /var/log/dhcpd.log and the current one is definitely getting written to.

Is there something I need to do to make the log appear in the web page?

Thanks :)

(Deleted, talking nonsense as usual)

Just to be sure.. are these two VPN interfaces assigned?

Assigned as in there's a device name in the interface settings? If so yes.

Nope, can't scroll in it. Also if I delete it and re-add it, to begin with it's bigger, with white space below the two interfaces, then it shrinks itself. The two VPN interfaces definitely aren't in it.

The interfaces widget is only showing my LAN and WAN interfaces.
The two VPN interfaces which are up and running are not shown.

See pic.

Just trying 24.7b on my test box and it looks great but I don't see my two VPN interfaces in the dashboard interfaces widget. Should they be there or have they moved somewhere else?

What does it do? I must admit, I don't really know why I have it in the live config.

It looks like removing those tunables has done the trick! I have a restored system that is working properly now.

Many thanks  :)

OK, I will give that a go. I have reverted the VM to an earlier snapshot and I'm just going through a few power on/off cycles to make absolutely sure it's OK before I restore the config again.

I just checked and it looks like the only tunables I have set are:

hw.pci.enable_msix 0
hw.bce.tso_enable 0

No idea if these could be an issue?

To clarify, I am shutting down properly via the Opnsense web gui.

But I am pretty sure I can start up/shut down repeatedly without issue until I restore the config...

Thanks for the reply. This is qemu on Fedora. And I'm powering off from the web gui.

I'm trying to restore the config from my live system into a VM and whenever I do this I'm hitting an issue.
The VM is working fine and is at the exact same release level as the live system.

The restore works as expected, and the system automatically reboots. Everything looks to be in order.

But if I then power off and re-start, after the system boots I get dropped to a mountroot prompt.
Issuing "?" at the mountroot prompt lists no devices.

I don't know how to debug this, any help would be appreciated please...

I can re-create this behaviour every time by reverting the VM using a snapshot.
