The latest release is an absolute garbage

Once a good project turns into an absolute garbage with an alarming speed. I have made a mistake: for some stupid reason upgraded my routers to the latest release. As a result all OpenVPN tunnels are down. Tried to replace them with IPsec ones — the new release lets you create a Phase 2 configuration, but you cannot see it, cannot edit it, cannot delete it.

Stay at 22.1!!! Everything that comes later is garbage!

There are a lot of complaints about the latest release. Therefore, I won't take the risk to upgrade my router yet. Stay away from them.

OVPN works fine for me... As anything else on the system.

running 22.7.4, no problems at all and vpn wireguard runs like a charm.
Deciso DEC850v2

Hi.

Running the most recent Version, no issues at all (VPN and Wireguard works).

The OpnSense team appreciate constructive feedback, but just screaming in the room that everything is garbage doesn't help.

The most weird thing has happened to IPSec tunnel: I have created the Phase 1 config — fine, then I create the Phase 2. I save it and see the Phase 2 list empty... OK, I try to create that Phase 2 part again and get an error message saying that this item already exists. WHAT?! The list is still empty, the tunnel does not connect.

Then I restart OPNsense in hope to see the Phase 2 to become visible — to no effect. In frustration I create this thread.

Today in the morning I connect to the problematic OPNsense and... the cursed Phase 2 is there. WHAT was THAT?

Although I'm not using OpenVPN
But I'm running 22.7.4 with Wireguard and IPSec (IKEv2 Mutual RSA + EAP-MSCHAPv2) without any issue

(One setup is in Home PC, another setup is in Cloud Server)

For IPSec, are you following this guide? (OPNsense config under VPN compatibility section)
https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/ipsec-rw.html

To see phase 2 ib IPsec you need to select phase 1, with nothing selected, there is nothing to show in the list...

Perhaps, that might be the issue. Was rather unexpected behavior to me as in the 22.1 release having a single Phase 1 line you always see Phase 2. Cannot understand why they have changed that.


Sure, OPNsense is not perfect and there are issues/bugs from time to time with certain packages or configurations. That's software, unfortunately. But I can't see how labelling them whole release as "absolute garbage" is either accurate or helpful to identifying the specific issue and a solution
