IPv6 issue?

Whenever I set the LAN  IPv6 Configuration Type to Track Interface I get the following log errors.

2023-03-25T16:29:59-07:00   Error   configd.py   [8652173a-ab02-4b61-b2bd-158d148350a9] returned exit status 1   
2023-03-25T16:29:59-07:00   Notice   configd.py   [8652173a-ab02-4b61-b2bd-158d148350a9] update IPv6 prefixes

I have the prefix set to 56, which is what the ISP told me. I also tried 64 and 60 and enabling the Request only an IPv6 prefix and prefix hit.
Is there another setting I need to do, or is this maybe caused by the ISP?
By the way, I do get an IPv6 address on the clients.

I would say there is no issue  8)

Can the clients reach IPv6 resources? Browse http://www.kame.net and check that the turtle swims

They change something since 23.1 my friend dont get any prefix from provider.
But no one do anything about it i think, because there ar so many ways to deligate
prefix it depend on what equipment the provider have, so for some it works the rest not
I dont think there is so many that use IPV6 so that could be why it dont have any priority
to be fixed.

I am having the same issue.

I am no longer able to get a prefix and an IPv6 address on the WAN port with 23.1, and browsing the forum did not seem to provide any meaningful solution to the issue, sadly.

It's been a very frustrating experience ever since my ISP turned off 6RD, which used to work perfectly.

With dual stack on OPNsense I have been having only issues since the 6RD switch off.

Quick update, IPv6 seems to be working now that I have performed what is mentioned in this message:

https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=32263.msg160190#msg160190

Basically running a script from the GUI fixed things for me, at least for the time being.

The simple execution of

/usr/local/etc/rc.configure_interface wan

fixed things. Go figure!
