Web filtering suddenly blocks everything!

J I

Hi,

Firmware : 9.705-3

My UTM  suddenly blocks all internet traffic. It took me some time to pinpoint the problem to the web filtering module. Disabling web filtering fixes the problem.

I have no experience with live log reading but I cant really see what causes the issue.

Anyone has any ideas ?

Live log below was captured when a url was tested on policy helpdesk..

    What catches my eye is this line:

    Maybe this is a pattern file problem? Have a look at Adminstration / Up2date / Overview / Patterns, what is your pattern version at the moment?

    UTM reports the same pattern version too

    Hello,

    I can confirm this exact problem on a VMWare testing instance (also home use). The SG 310 HA-Cluster and a smaller hardware appliance seem to work flawlessly.

    Forcing AV updates with audld.plx does not help.

    Update:

    I tried resetting the UTM to rule out a stuck definition update or other inherited issues. Unfortunately, this did nothing.
    In addition, I also tried disabling "application control" (as I thought it was possibly related to "tscontrol"). This also did not bring anything.
    What is the component "tscontrol"?
    I have never come across it in the 7 years of Astaro/Sophos...

    Mine also is a vmware home installation...

    its strange how it suddenly happened out of the blue last  night. Now i am forced to have web filtering disabled.

    i have the same issue.

    This error occurs since the last update it seems.

    I'm also using vmware.

    I see this Message in Web Proxy Log:

    I just called Sophos Support, informed them, as the Support Portal is offline, they are now investigating this (per my other thread and this thread, and other threads on the 'net).  Thanks.  Potentially a bad AV update possibly.

    Just to mention:

    I have also tested to disable AV scanning in every profile and setting I was able to find. Additionally I have tried to change the AV-Scanning Engine (Avira vs. Sophos).

    This didn't fix the problem. Seems like upon startup the proxy tries to load this portion of definitions regardless. So I'm not sure if it really is AV or another component.

    BR,

    in my case problem is rectified if web filtering is disabled.
