No reboot happening when updating to OPNsense 24.10.1

[Evert]

Hi,

When I updated to OPNsense 24.10.1 it appeared first all went as mentioned, but then I noticed that some of the services weren't running and that my unit hadn't actually rebooted.

Some searching on the console revealed that the reboot never happened because of a stuborn monitrc-process. As soon as I killed it, the reboot process commenced.

After the reboot all services started as they should, and all was well.

Has anyone else experienced this?
(Perhaps an idea to forcefully kill processes like monitrc if they don't go down gracefully?)

Yeah, it used to be that crowdsec was bad for that. Uninstall plugin, update, reboot, install plugin.

That's fixed now. You may get away with stopping monitrc before updating.
