Log view interfaces are incomplete under some of web browsers.
Search window and pull-down menus are not visible at all, also Start/Stop/Restart buttons for services are missing, too:

System: Log Files:* (all submenus)
Firewall: Log Files: Plain View
Firewall: Log Files: General
Services: Unbound DNS: Log File
Services: Dnsmasq DNS & DHCP: Log File

Visible OK under Chrome-based browsers, failing to show correctly under Palemoon variants.

Example of problem shown below.

26.1 Series / "Health" tab empty
February 02, 2026, 12:12:23 PM
Tab "Reporting: Health" contains no data, only message "Local data collection is not enabled. Enable it in Reporting Settings page. Go to the Reporting configuration"
After clicking on "Reporting configuration" I am redirected to the tab "Reporting: Settings". All checkboxes are checked there. I unchecked, saved, checked them again - no effect. Also "Reset DNS/RRD/Netflow data" didn't change nothing - Health tab contains only "Local data collection is not enabled."
Note: it is less than 24h from total OPNSense reinstallation - does data needs more time to collect and be collated?

Version    26.1_4

Performed GUI update to 24.7.2. Reboot was required. During reboot box freezes. I connected display to VGA port and I see this:



EDIT: My RAM is OK, tested using MemTest86. Box is non-virtualized. Previous install options (file system, etc) were all default.

After installing 24.7 and restoring my config backup everything seemed to be OK. But after update from 24.7 to 24.7.1 my dashboard is now empty and options "Restore default layout" and "Add Widget" do nothing, i.e. after clicking on "Restore default layout" nothing happens and after clicking on "Add Widget" pull-down menu which should contain list of widgets is not opening and contains only "Nothing selected" line. I rebooted box after update to 24.7.1.
Edit: yes, I cleared cache/cookies in browser and tried different "fresh" browser.

Steps I took:

1. Update to last 24.1 version from WebGUI. Went OK.
2. Upgrade to 24.7 from WebGUI. Seemed to be OK, until reboot. There was only shutdown sound, but then the box hanged, no boot-up sound after half an hour. Also no ping to LAN/WAN interfaces and no WebGUI/SSH access at this moment.
3. I restart the box the hard way (turning the power off//on). There is no boot-up sound. I try to access webGUI - no luck. Luckily there is SSH access. But when I try to run commands from SSH menu, the only response I got is:


ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/bin/php: Undefined symbol "__libc_start1@FBSD_1.7"
ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/bin/php: Undefined symbol "__libc_start1@FBSD_1.7"


(this line repeated twice).

And this moment there is Internet acess through the box and most of the firewall rules seem to be working.

The only SSH menu commands working are "Shell", "Firewall logs" and "Update from console".
The menu shows that the OPNSense version is still 24.1

When I try to use "Update from console" the process starts normally, I see the growing list of packaged fetched from repo. But in the end the following happens:


[93/93] Fetching py311-h11-0.14.0.pkg: .......... done
Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting)
pkg-static: Cannot delete vital package: opnsense!
pkg-static: If you are sure you want to remove opnsense,
pkg-static: unset the 'vital' flag with: pkg set -v 0 opnsense
ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/bin/php: Undefined symbol "__libc_start1@FBSD_1.7"
ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/bin/php: Undefined symbol "__libc_start1@FBSD_1.7"
ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/bin/php: Undefined symbol "__libc_start1@FBSD_1.7"


So what I my options at the moment?

I am trying to reach maltrail interface using correct password and it is rejected with message "Bad login and/or password". I verified password hash at "Services: Maltrail: General" tab on web GUI so I am sure I am using good password. I entered password both manually and by copy-pasting - no luck. I tried admin and root logins - still rejected.

22.1 Legacy Series / CPU load 99% after update
February 03, 2022, 01:06:40 PM
Hi,

After updating to newest build (LibreSSL flavor) ntopng is killing my box, eating all available CPU cycles.
The culprit on "System/Diagnostics/Activity" tab is named "flowd_aggregate.py". After I stopped ntopng service, CPU usage dropped to normal levels. I waited some time and started ntopng again, and as before CPU usage went through the roof.

And yes, I disabled IPv6 as advised at different thread:

21.7 Legacy Series / ntopng without GeoIP
October 15, 2021, 10:11:10 AM
Hello,

After logging into ntopng web console I was greeted with information that GeoIP support is absent ("Running without Geolocation support ")
I checked https://github.com/ntop/ntopng/blob/dev/doc/README.geolocation.md about how to install GeoIP database manually (I already have it configured correctly for my firewall, but it seems ntopng expects separate database files in .mmdb format).

My question is: are Linux instructions I linked above valid also for OPNsense or is there another way to add current GeoIP database and support to ntopng?

Hi everyone,

After update to version OPNsense 21.1.4-amd64 flowd_aggregate is not starting.
I get the following error in logs:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/flowd_aggregate: WARNING: failed to start flowd_aggregate

Restart didn't help. So the "repair/reset netflow data" options.

What can I do more?

#11
Hello,

Netdata is no longer working after update to 20.7. I tried reinstalling, but it didn't help at all.
The error message in log is always the same: kernel: pid  [number] (netdata), jid 0, uid 302: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

I will upload coredump if someone be so kind to pojnt me to its location.

Thanks in advance.
