After FW update 9.705: "urid not running - restarted"

Today I am working an a UTM 230. Immediately after updating to firmware 9.705003 on 9/24, I am getting many email with the message "urid not running - restarted". The proxy log gives me lines like this:

2020:10:18-19:28:25 lissmacutm httpproxy[5474]: id="0003" severity="info" sys="SecureWeb" sub="http" request="0x19764300" function="urid_categorize_url" file="uri_scanner.c" line="242" message="urid_query failed: (-2) "

Also getting many lines with "Categorization failed". These are not specific to any internal or external IP although MS updates are more common particularly on the weekend.

BAlfson wrote in one post that the UTM is being "chatty", but since this occurred on the day of an update and afterwards, I wonder if there's an issue with the update or did my DNS somehow get hosed?

Thanks, Tom

  • Hello Tom,

    Thank yo u for the follow-up!

    hmm, that doesn't look right, it means the service is failing.

    Does the selfmon and kernel log shows any type of I/O errors?

  • Hello Tom,

    thank you for the follow-up!

    Seems disk is damaged, if you the device is under warranty please open a case with Support and ask for an RMA, device needs to be replaced. You can send me the Case ID so I can follow-up, when submitting the Case please include the output of both logs 

    /var/log/kernel and /var/log/selfmon as well as the output of /var/storage/cores.

    You can also reference this Community Thread when opening the case. 

    Regards,

  • Unfortunately, no warranty. Will discuss with client. Thanks all for the help.

  • Hello Tom,

    You could also try to re-image the device! Hopefully, if it was something that corrupted the entries this should be solved there!

  • You're referring to re-imaging with an ISO? I can try that but not until Saturday. In the mean time I'll see what Bob's suggestion does with the logs and I'll report back.

    Thanks again!

  • Hello Tom,

    Sorry yes, I should have been more clear, yes re-image using ISO. This is the URL to download the ISO.

    https://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/utm-downloads.aspx

    This is the KB that explains how to re-image the device, in case you are not familiar with the procedure.

  • Thanks, I'm very familiar with the process. It won't be a problem.

  • The UTM was reimaged on Saturday without issue and monitored throughout the weekend. Between that and a full day of user traffic today, all logs are clean and not showing the I/O errors. The URID email have also stopped. Hopefully, the cause of this was a bad firmware update install.

    Thank you Emmanuel and Bob for your attention to this!
