Bug #15127
closed
``check_dnsavailable()`` failing even when DNS is available
100%
Description
In the file /usr/local/www/services_acb.php there is a call on line 233 to "check_dnsavailable" which queries against 8.8.8.8 using a function in /etc/inc/system.inc. Recently a change to Google's DNS servers has broken this function.
Currently, this can be worked around with the following one-line command until a system patch can be made on 23.09.1:
awk 'NR==233 {$0="if ((!($_REQUEST['\''download'\'']) || $input_errors)) {"} 1' /usr/local/www/services_acb.php > temp && mv temp /usr/local/www/services_acb.php

This affects a lot more than just ACB. It affects DHCP lease display, ARP display, NDP display, update checks, and potentially other related areas along with ACB.

I applied the patch and tested all the services that were potentially affected.
ACB worked fine.
The DHCP lease page worked fine.
The NDP table had entries.
The firewall was able to check for updates.
I am marking this ticket resolved.
