<p>This appears to be verification that the changes are producing acceptable and expected output for your case, can you confirm?</p> pfSense - Bug #13539: Missing descriptions for referrers to firewall aliases cause empty strings for references to be returned when deleting an in-use aliashttps://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13539?journal_id=641642022-12-03T04:08:07ZDanilo Zrenjanin
<ul><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>Feedback</i> to <i>Resolved</i></li></ul><p>Tested against:<br /><pre>
23.01-DEVELOPMENT (amd64)
built on Fri Dec 02 06:04:48 UTC 2022
FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT
</pre></p>
<p>When I tried to delete the alias used in a rule and route, I got:</p>
<pre>
Cannot delete alias. Currently in use by filter rule id 0, route id 0.
</pre>
<p>I deleted the rule with the alias and when tried to delete it I got:<br /><pre>
Cannot delete alias. Currently in use by route id 0.
</pre></p>
<p>It works as expected. I am marking this ticket resolved.</p>
