pfSense

Are you seeing this on recent snapshots?

snmpd.conf is located on /var/etc and not on /etc, do you have any custom patch applied?

i use the latest snapshot.
and yes i know the config is in /var/etc thats why i dont get why i see in system.log "/etc/snmpd.conf: No such file or directory"
is there anyway i can see why the process dies?

i will try this now

If it doesn't help, please attach the content of /var/etc/snmpd.conf.

okay it sill stops working so here is my /var/etc/snmpd.conf

begemotSnmpdModulePath."regex"     = "/usr/local/lib/snmp_regex.so" 

Could you please collect snmpd process information when it starts?

1. ps auxwww | grep -i snmp

And send the output.

sorry for late reply

Can you try removing the trap host/port and see if it stays up longer?

Okay i will remove it and see what will happens

Still the same ... maybe i should reinstall it ...

snmp doesnt even work right data for pppoe and some vlan interfaces are not available ! even after re install with old config

You still have same problems or it's a different one?

still the same problem after reboot it wont start, i have to start it manual

Could you please create a file called test_snmpd.php with the following content:

<?php

require_once("services.inc");

services_snmpd_configure();

?>

After just execute:

# php test_snmpd.php

And send me output

that is the output :

Fatal error: Call to undefined function sigkillbypid() in /etc/inc/services.inc on line 1633

/etc/inc/services.inc line 1633 is :

Sigkillbypid("{$g['varrun_path']}/snmpd.pid", "TERM");

The commit 1b7ec6ba16 should address this. Could you make this change to services.inc and test it again?

ok i did it

php test_snmpd.php without error

so i will let u know after 24h

thanks

after restart the service doesn't start

Can you post your config.xml here or send it direct to me (garga@pfsense.org)?

send u an email

I couldn't find anything wrong on your config and couldn't reproduce it locally. Let me just ask you some questions to be sure I understood the issue right:

- Are you using recent snapshot?
- snmpd doesn't start during the boot, but it works fine if you start it manually after that?

yes i use the snapshot from today

after boot the service wont start
but the worst problem is after a while it just dies and i have to restart it manually

It seems to be a local issue instead of a bug on pfSense since there are no other users reporting the same issue and I couldn't reproduce it locally. Is it possible for you to test it on other installation?

hmm its hard to test it on another machine i will do a complete new install of the system next week and i try to install it on another machine

I figured out that every time my ISP reconnect me snmpd stop working that's why it wont start from the beginning also
because the pppoe starts connecting

Could you please change "Bind Interface" to All to see if the error persists?

very nice! i tested it right now

after a reconnect the snmp stoped working

then i bind it to all interfaces and it was working even after a reboot it stats

but now i have to be careful with the firewall rules because because its also bind on WAN interface ... but thats okay for now

hmm after update still the same .... any idea

Okay after finding 2 bugs u send me to a forum ... okay noted

btw i use 2 wan interfaces
