Okay I do not know what happened (I did nothing), but the problem seems to have fixed itself.

[pgrep pkg]

Hey, apologies for resurrecting this old post, but I've encountered a sudden issue with my OPNsense. I previously faced a similar problem when setting up my DNS. Initially, I configured Adguardhome as the main DNS, pointing it to unbound. Although I resolved the DNS setup for OPNsense months ago, everything worked fine, and I could update packages without any issues.

I regularly perform updates, almost daily, due to having ntopng installed, which frequently receives small updates. However, now that I'm attempting to update to OPNsense 23.7.12, the firmware screen keeps loading indefinitely, as if the DNS isn't configured correctly.

Upon running pgrep pkg, I observed 18 items, and when I ran pgrep pkg-static, there were 0 items. Executing killall pkg did not resolve the issue.

Running configctl firmware tiers hangs on pkg update -q.

When I execute pkg update, it displays the following and hangs on the last line:

Code Select Expand

Updating SunnyValley repository catalogue...
SunnyValley repository is up to date.
Updating mimugmail repository catalogue...

Updating ntop repository catalogue...
Waiting for another process to update repository ntop

Does this imply that there's an issue retrieving the ntop repository information, causing the firmware status and update pages not to load?

Apologies for the bump and the somewhat rambling comment. Thanks in advance.

I figured out my problem. sorry.

I had posted a question here, but figured it out almost immediately. I edited the post, because I don't know how to delete it.

Thanks for the reply. I managed to "fix" it by removing zenarmor+sunvalley and elasticsearch. Then reinstalled elasticsearch only and started it. Then I installed Zenarmor and connected it to the database.
I currently use the default login and password, how do I change those?

Hello all,

I would like to install Zenarmor while also having the Mimugmail community repo installed. The install wizard said that I can install the Elasticsearch plugin and point Zenarmor to it as a remote database. I have installed the Elasticsearch plugin, but I don't know how to proceed further. I can not find any documentation on how to setup/configure Elasticsearch on opnsense after I installed the plugin. The only option I have in the OPNsense webUI is to enable it.
Also when I try to enable the service it just stays on the red stop sign. I do not know why it isn't starting. Where can I find logs regarding startup of services?

Thanks in advance :)

Nevermind, I figured it out.
On the new install I had AGH listening only to LAN traffic. Reinstalled and let it listen to all interfaces, now it works like a charm.

Sorry for reviving a dead post.

I also agree that this is a workaround. For my current setup I require Adguardhome+Unbound So I have it set up so that AGH uses Unbound as upstream dns. I have DoT setup on Unbound so I can't use query forwarding to system nameservers in unbound.

Is there another way to get this setup to work without checking "Do not use the local DNS service as a nameserver for this system"?

The strange thing is that I had it working just fine, but had to change the boot drive. So I restored from backup and suddenly it doesn't work.
