Package: apf-firewall Version: 9.7+rev1-3 Severity: important There is a daily cronjob running which is restarting apf-firewall. However, sometimes it breaks my system - to be specific - it somehow blocks connectivity for mysql on 127.0.0.1 and I'm not able to connect neither command line, websites are not working, MTA postfix (with ispconfig) fails to check for table lookup (because it's connecting to with user/pass on 127.0.0.1. Localhost connections are working normally. After stopped firewall with e.g. "apf -f" - on first F5 refresh all websites are working, I'm able to connect in mysql through "mysql -p -h 127.0.0.1". This doesn't happen every day, it happens on random basics and always in same time around 06:26AM - cronjob dailys are schedules to run on 06:25AM. I can't reproduce the problem, but so far I know that stopping apf-firewal fixes the problem. I don't even have to restart mysql/MTA - stopping apf is enough. Any idea what could cause this?
