Unbound --- fatal error: Could not set up local zones

[Inxsible]

I set up a cron job last night for auto updating the Unbound DNSBLs but did not set any parameters (should I have?)

Cut to 8AM -- time for a work meeting and I find out that I don't have internet access. I try to get to my firewall using the host name and I cannot. Then I just use the IP and I get in to find out that Unbound is not running. Clicked start a few times but no luck. Rebooted the firewall -- still the same.

I checked the logs and I see that it was running fine until 6AM -- the time set for the auto update of Unbound DNSBLs. Here's the log from a little before 6AM onwards.

The re-download of the blacklists at 8:24 AM is because I disabled Unbound and enabled DNSMasq and then switched back to Unbound again. But even that didn't work

As of right now, I have DNSMasq enabled, so I have internet access but I cannot access any of my internal services (nextcloud etc) using the host names -- even though the DNSMasq logs indicate that it is reading 26 addresses from the /var/etc/dnsmasq-hosts

Code: [Select]

2021-03-17T11:03:20 dnsmasq[4489] read /etc/hosts - 2 addresses
2021-03-17T11:03:20 dnsmasq[4489] read /var/etc/dnsmasq-hosts - 26 addresses
2021-03-17T11:03:20 dnsmasq[4489] read /etc/hosts - 2 addresses
2021-03-17T11:02:02 dnsmasq[4489] read /var/etc/dnsmasq-hosts - 26 addresses

• How do I flush DNS cache and get Unbound to start up again?
• Was the cron job responsible for killing Unbound? If so, how would I set up the cron job so that the blacklists would be updated but not kill Unbound at the same time?

I have already tried to start Unbound & rebooted the firewall without any luck. I have also ssh'ed into the firewall, but any command I try for unbound using

Code: [Select]

unbound-control reload/start/status/flush_bogus etc simply results in a timeout because the unbound service just doesn't start up.

Thank you for your time...

I also tried updating from 21.1.2 --> 21.1.3_3. The update went fine, but after the reboot, I disabled DNSMasq and tried enabling Unbound, but it still does not want to start up

Please help....

I've got a smiliar issue - https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=22092.0

Will try this weekend what @Fright suggested.

Thanks @hushcoden, it was a blocklist issue. I removed all blocklists and Unbound starts up. I will now try to set 1 at a time to see which blocklist is problematic.

Will update this thread....

I disabled all the built-in blocklists and started Unbound and that worked. I have 4 additional blocklists. Then I enabled the built-in lists one after the other, and reloaded Unbound. Each time, it started up just fine. I now have all the blocklists enabled just the way I had it before Unbound crashed.

I guess, due to my cron job, it updated the blocklists and either

• one of them had some bad data which caused an issue. That must have been resolved by the list maintainer OR
• my local DNS cache had some bad data which got flushed when I removed all the blocklists

[hushcoden]

Yes, by deselecting the blacklists Unbound now works...
