unbound.conf - log-replies parameter not working?

[mihak]

I noticed that OPNSense unbound parameters only include the checkbox for log-queries, but there is no checkbox for log-replies.

So, after verifying that OPNSense unbound version (v 1.13.0) indeed does support log-replies (by checking man unbound.conf), I added it as a custom option, alongside with log-tag-queryreply option and let OPNSense re-generate /var/unbound/unbound.conf

Except unbound service then refuses to start and ubnound-checkconf complains with:

% sudo unbound-checkconf /var/unbound/unbound.conf
/var/unbound/unbound.conf:100: error: syntax error
read /var/unbound/unbound.conf failed: 1 errors in configuration file

upon inspection, unbound.conf seems legit, the added line items from custom options look just fine:

...
# Unbound custom options
log-tag-queryreply: yes
log-replies: yes
...

What am I doing wrong here? (also, shouldn't we link together log-queries, log-replies and log-tag-queryreply when user wants to see quyery diagnostics in the log?)

its part of "server:" clause. so it should be

Code: [Select]

server:
  log-tag-queryreply: yes
  log-replies: yes
in "custom options"

yes, we should move these two config options to be enabled automatically through Log queries selection on Unbound-Advanced tab.

we should move these two config options to be enabled automatically

I didn’t say it and don’t agree

Too much clutter?

so we should create an additional file in /usr/local/etc/unbound.opnsense.d e.g. logging.conf ??
See: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/unbound.html#advanced-configurations  [1]

Tried this but it's not getting included in /var/unbound/unbound.conf
( Running OPNsense 22.4.2-amd64 )

Then tried using the Template system as described in [1].
Does not work either

Problem solved:
the conf file is not merged into /var/bound/unbound.conf
but gets included by: 

Code: [Select]

# Custom includes
include: /var/unbound/etc/*.conf
