Since Update 9.715-4 Web Filtering not Working?

I know, this one sounds strange: After Upgrade to 9.715-4 and Web Filtering turned on, Internet Connection stopped working. Turning Web Filtering off: Everything works fine. As far as i remember i did no other configuration-changes after upgrade, so i can see no other reason...

Everything (with web filter on) worked fine before update. But I don't want to rule out that I haven't changed something...and forgotten it :). 

Any hints, where to start?

Thanks!

  • Hello Chris,

    Good day and thanks for reaching out to Sophos Community

    When you say Internet Connection stopped working does it mean even ping from the Firewall, End machines to an external IP/domain does not work? or only web browsing? Also does it happen to all users or isolated cases only? and what error does the end machine is being prompted when trying to browse the web? 

    Many thanks for your time and patience and thank you for choosing Sophos

    • Ping to google.de still possible with web filtering on (but slow)
    • Websites on all connected devices don´t load (ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED OUT)
    • Streaming although not possible

    No Log Entries in Web Filtering Live Log. Turning Web Filtering off and everything is fine.

    Never had that before...

  • Hello Chris,

    Thanks for these details and apologies that you have bumped into this inconvenience.

    Could you please open a support ticket for this to be further investigated then please share with us the caseID once you have it. 

    Many thanks for your time and patience and thank you for choosing Sophos.

  • Guess there is no Ticket-Option for me, i´m Sophos UTM Home Free User.

    Again: When turning Web Filtering off, everythings works normal. As soon as i activate Web Filtering in transparent Mode (no authentification), every Website ends with a time out error. Log for Web Filter is completely empty, which is very strange. What do i miss? Anything to do about that 8080-Port?

  • Hello Chris,

    Thanks for this additional information. Could you confirm your UTM's pattern version? under Management>Up2date>Pattern

    Also, could you show the error you are encountering with port 8080?

    What happens when you use policy test? and could you test disabling all Web Filter profiles and use only the Base Policy? 

    Kindly let us know how it goes. Many thanks for your time and patience and thank you for choosing Sophos

  • Pattern Version: 228881

    No Error with 8080. Just a suspicion that the port might be blocked somehow. But the logs don't give anything in this regard.

    Policy test: " An error occurred while processing the policy test request."

    Base Policy only: WORKS! But i need to tick "Do not proxy HTTPS traffic in transparent mode". If not ticked, same error. Even with Base Policy only Policy test still throws the above error.

    Additional Info 1/3: Web Filter Log stays empty all the time (except a short notice when i turn off the filter: "2023:07:28-19:41:22 firew_ttt URID[31081]: T=31081 ------ 1 - [exit] SIGTERM: exiting"); for testing purpose i´ve added a Domain under " Block These Websites" in Base Policy, Domain is NOT blocked, no log entry --> Guess Web Filtering isn´t working at all.

  • Update: Did manual Update to 9.716 (https://community.sophos.com/utm-firewall/b/blog/posts/utm-up2date-9-716-released)

    Right now Policy Test WORKS, URL Filter for HTTPS seems to work too. But Web Filtering Log is now flooded like this:

  • Quite a few hits in your firewall.  Have you reviewed its log to see details. 

  • Sorry, i don´t get it. I´m talking about my Web Filtering, which isn´t working, not the firewall...

  • I understand, but 15K is a lot of entries unless that's typical for you? Maybe something there will give some clue where to look further.
