Unable to add Q Feed IPs to my firewall rules.

Just signed up for Q Feed today and have downloaded the plugin and added my api key etc. However when I try to use q feed as destination in my rules i get "__qfeeds_malware_ip is not a valid source IP address or alias."

If I go to Firewall - Diagnostics - Aliases - __qfeeds_malware_ip it lists a lot of IP addresses so I don't think there is an issue there. I am on 26.1.1

Any ideas?

Update: Just rebooting the firewall seemed to fix this issue.

Glad it's working again after the reboot! We're curious though if more users have experienced this?

Thanks, that is true, I had the same error, rebooted (thanks lionflower) it is fine now. This was a new clean install of V26.1.1 on hardware.

We might have found the culprit. It was most likely due to a 'NULL' response from our server in one of the values of the license check. If anyone needs help, shoot us a message ;-)

I'm experiencing this issue right now. Unfortunately I can't reboot until later. Will write back if rebooting helps.

Was able to do a reboot and it solved the issue.

Can you tell me which version you're running?

Hello,

Had the same issue and when I rebooted, after everything was working fine.

OPNsense Version 26.1.3
 
Cheers,

Thx! We've found the problem and will be solved soon: https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/issues/5288
Seems a combination of the core and our plugin ;)
