Yep python was updated t0 3.11. Sadly Im on vacation for 2 weeks, no chance to update

HI Michael, I have a bit of a twist for you here, unsure why I'm getting inconsistent results following the same steps.


I did a fresh install on a barebones test vm running 24 1.8, went to the 8080 page, restore config -- all flawless with no additional steps required. (checked later on after having trouble with the actual FW I need to have it working - not even the proc and fdesc are present in fstab)


Went to the FW I need to have this running and thigs started going sideways, had 8080 running in a couple places, fixed the first as it was AGH on an interface then discovered meyergru's post here and after adding the two fstab mounts and moving Crowdsec things started working a bit.

The furthest I got here was the import page - where I used the same config file as above - and things died silently on me during the import.

For completeness, the test vm was running with 2GB ram and the FW4C has 8GB, so I ruled out any resource constraints that would make the import fail. 

[newsense]

OK so the two remaining issues were mongo not running - everything came up with

Code Select Expand

service mongod onestart
and the loop caused by the Unifi controller having the old IP configured in it - which would override the set-inform on the devices.

Haven't rebooted the FW yet so I'm unsure how mongo would behave post reboot. I don't see it listed Lobby - Services so it might need to be added to /etc/rc.conf ?

[mimugmail]

No, this is handled by unifi, no need to register the Service itself

[newsense]

Actually this is a confirmed no, maybe it is a bug in Unifi ?

I just rebooted the FW, verified mongo was not running, could go as far as to do the login but then nothing would show up in the page until I started mongod manually.

While fixing the plugin, we may want to upgrade the controller as new version is also available.  Thanks

[mimugmail]

Everything should be up2date now :)

[newsense]

Well...for 8.1 yes, for 8.2 not yet :)

Just installing 8.1.127 now, thanks for providing it.

Hi all,

Thank mimugmail, am most happy to consolidate all my networking services onto a single box this weekend. ← feels so right this way.

When I ran the installer, I saw two commands that were to be run/setup at the end... but I stupidly clicked off the page onto another menu before I could act on them.
I vaguely recall a command associated with /proc and another with /etc/fstab.

I've got Unify running but I haven't restarted.  :) ;) :D ;D :o ::)

Am curious if anyone is able to let me know where to look to see what dependency/install advised to run these, and whether they actually required given Unifi is running great (sans restarting)

Once again, thank you.

[mimugmail]

The msg is not important for running on OPN

[hoondi]

Thank you,
Champion!

Hi mimugmail!

Just need to ask if your plug-ins would work under version 24.7?

I'm kinda relectant to upgrade at the moment as it may break some things

Thanks
