Occasionally, installation may fail due to an error message, "Waiting for another session", which prevents policies from being installed from FMG. During this issue, the following message may also appear: "Blocked by session id(XYZ) username(n/a)". This issue may be caused by a signal loss between the child and parent security console processes, leading the parent process to continue waiting for a copy result. Workaround: The main securityconsole process should be killed. Ensure no other installations are running, and confirm that only one securityconsole process is active. Then, terminate this process by using the following commands: diag sys process list diag sys process kill 12 <main_securityconsole_pid> |
|
991720 |

VPN Manager
| Bug ID | Description |
|---|---|
|
784385 |
If policy changes are made directly on the FortiGates, the subsequent PP import creates faulty dynamic mappings for VPN manager. Workaround: It is strongly recommended to create a fresh backup of the FortiManager's configuration prior to the workaround. Perform the following command to check & repair the FortiManager's configuration database. diagnose cdb check policy-packages <adom> After running this command, FortiManager will remove the invalid mappings of vpnmgr interfaces. |
