Hi there,
I wanted to check if there are some news. Through removing the saved
rules files, the update has succeeded. But still, I think that this is
not solved: after the update went through, I've tried to dump the rules
through the following command:
ip6tables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v6
This created the following dump:
# Generated by xtables-save v1.8.2 on Mon Dec 10 18:40:39 2018
*filter
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [64:15232]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:INPUT ACCEPT [64:15232]
COMMIT
# Completed on Mon Dec 10 18:40:39 2018
Afterwards, I tried to restore the rules that I've just dumped, and that
threw the same message as before:
ip6tables-restore v1.8.2 (nf_tables):
line 3: CHAIN_UPDATE failed (No such file or directory): chain OUTPUT
line 4: CHAIN_UPDATE failed (No such file or directory): chain FORWARD
line 5: CHAIN_UPDATE failed (No such file or directory): chain INPUT
I understand that there might be some things that could work in another
way due to a legacy version, but still: how could saving the rules with
the current version result in a file that the current version cannot parse?
Regards
Nico
