Description

Hi all,

I just did a new pfSense 2.3 NanoBSD install after getting a new CF card yesterday. I just skipped through the initial configuration and immediately restored my old config from pfSense 2.2.6 (not NanoBSD). After a reboot, pfSense is no longer able to change any settings. It appears that it's having trouble writing to /cf/conf/config.xml.

It looks like /cf is being mounted read-only:

[2.3-RELEASE][admin@pfsense.home.lan]/cf/conf: ls -l config.xml
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  23529 Apr 15 18:23 config.xml
[2.3-RELEASE][admin@pfsense.home.lan]/cf/conf: mount
/dev/ufs/pfsense0 on / (ufs, local, noatime, synchronous)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
/dev/ufs/cf on /cf (ufs, local, noatime, read-only, synchronous)
/dev/md0 on /tmp (ufs, local)
/dev/md1 on /var (ufs, local)
devfs on /var/dhcpd/dev (devfs, local)

When I try to save on a certain page (Services -> NTP in this case), I get this error at the top of the page:

On the dashboard, I get this crash report:

For what it's worth, I'm still in the second boot of the system (after the auto-reboot from the config.xml restore). I'm avoiding a reboot right now in case there's something I can do to help debug the issue.

Try this: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=109766.msg612108#msg612108

There is some issue here we haven't yet been able to narrow down.

Thanks, that seems to have solved it:

I've rebooted a few times as it seems to stay mounted rw.

may be dup

  • Subject changed from pfSense 2.3 NanoBSD fresh install cannot write settings after config.xml restore to 2.3 NanoBSD issues with getting stuck read-only mounted
  • Category set to Operating System
  • Status changed from New to Confirmed

"fixing" the alignment had no impact on this issue on flash that's slow to rw->ro mount. we'll go permanent rw for 2.3.1.

pushed change so conf_mount_ro does nothing, so things will stay rw.

Thanks. I just did a reboot, ran:

umount -f /cf; fsck -t ufs -y /cf; mount -f -o rw /cf

and tried an upgrade to 2.3.1 from the web interface and it failed. The version still says 2.3-RELEASE, but there's no update available, and /cf is still mounted read only.

I'll try and see if I still run into the read-only issue with a clean install of 2.3.1.

Actions #8

Updated by Chris Buechler almost 8 years ago

pushed clean up of diag_nanobsd.php now that things are always rw. That should take care of this for 2.3.1

all good.
