Loosing configuration after reboot (7.1rc3)

Sat Sep 11, 2021 12:46 am

Hi all,

With 7.1rc3 the RBM33G loses configuration (e.g. IPv4 stuff like IP addresses, VLAN's, DHCP server, etc.) after power outages. After several trials I also experienced this configuration losses after simple reboots. This also happened after a previous initiated shutdown within the webfig GUI.

I didn't experienced this with 7.1beta6. I therefore downgraded to this firmware. I didn't try rc1 and rc2 on this RBM33G.

Cheers
Simon

I've now experienced the same problem with a "hEX S"

Search with google the version and platform you need (e.g. „routeros 7.1 beta 6 mmips“). I found the version here https://drivers.softpedia.com/get/Route ... ta-6.shtml

Upload it in files to root. With a restart it downgrades. I used the button ‘downgrade’ in /system/packages to initiate the process. I’m not sure if a normal reboot would have done the trick as well.

It’s annoying MT is not providing older development versions online. Maybe the version from softpedia has an integrated nsa-backdoor … but hey at least Internet access is stable now … ;-)

No, it wouldn't. ROS doesn't downgrade unless explicitly instructed to do so.

It's stupid to advertise it. The fastest way to get infected.

Checked. Mailed to support@mikrotik.com

Didn’t MT request to collect v7.1 bugs in this forum? I’m new in the MT universe.

I checked, fortunately the two files:

https://download.mikrotik.com/routeros/ ... 1beta6.zip
https://download.mikrotik.com/routeros/ ... -mmips.npk
and
https://drivers.softpedia.com/get/Route ... ta-6.shtml

are identical (binary same).

Re: Loosing configuration after reboot (7.1rc3)

Happened to me six times now - all on "hEX S" units with routerOS 7.1beta6
It works fine for a few weeks, sometimes months and then due to a reboot the routers lost the whole config (no config at all = 0.0.0.0).
Restored latest .backup > reboot > coming back without config! Restored from .rsc...

Upgrading now to Release 7.1rc4 - "improved filesystem and configuration storage stability" sounds suspicious ?
What's new in 7.1rc4 (2021-Sep-20 13:18):

*) improved filesystem and configuration storage stability;
*) show "expired password" prompt for users with blank password;
*) other fixes and improvements;

The issue should be resolved in 7.1rc4, in rare cases where the configuration loss happens, there is a chance that configuration will be lost during the upgrade to it. As you would be upgrading from a version that does not yet contain a fix. Once you are running 7.1rc4, there should be no more issues with losing configuration.

I experienced loss of partial configuration on my Rb4011 with 7.1RC4 under normal operation, but unfortunately I didn't saved the autosupout. Next time I will save it and send to support, I promise ;-)
It happend last week at night when I slept and next day I was can't reach it over IPv4, only on IPv6, so I logged into it over IPv6, reboot it and after that I was can't reach it over IP only with mac-telnet. All of the bridge config messed up, IF binding show unknown interface names starting with stars. After I fixed the IF names it works fine and I checked with success reload. The other thing which is messed up is this:
/system resource irq rps
set *1 disabled=yes
set *2 disabled=yes
set *3 disabled=yes
set *4 disabled=yes
set *5 disabled=yes
set *6 disabled=yes
set *7 disabled=yes
set *8 disabled=yes
set *9 disabled=yes
set *A disabled=yes
set *B disabled=yes
And I can't fix this.
