Skynet Skynet errors

I've noticed some safe websites are not loading, but if I restart Skynet the website loads ok. This is happening regularly.
I have noticed when Skynet restarts I get the following message.
[*] Lock File Detected (start skynetloc=/tmp/mnt/Merlin/skynet) (pid=15263)
[*] Locked Processes Generally Take 1-2 Minutes To Complete And May Result In Temporarilys

IPTables Rules | [Failed]

Not sure why I get this message and why I have to restart Skynet to load some safe websites.

I am using the latest Skynet version on RT-AX86U_Pro.
 
What Skynet version are you using?

Perhaps give the ol' uninstall skynet -> reboot router -> reinstall skynet option a try?

It's actually completely normal for skynet to display that lock file message... it does that anytime you restart or upgrade skynet. It resolves itself in 1-2 minutes... just keep hanging on the "r" key to reload the menu... and you'll see that's the case.

Are you using any particular blocklists, or just the defaults? Are you using diversion?
 
Ah yes, reloading the menu got rid of the errors thanks.
I am just using the default settings, not using diversion.
The two websites that were not loading were hosefactory.com.au and zorroaustralia.com.au
I have whitelisted them both and all ok now.

Whitelisting is sometimes a necessary step... while looking at your syslog, and you're seeing a lot of [BLOCKED - OUTBOUND] messages, do a quick reverse lookup on that IP, and you'll probably find that it's the site you are having trouble loading... next logical step is whitelisting that IP. Good job solving your issue!
 
I located syslog.log under tmp directory, but could not see Blocked -Outbound messages.
The message in Skynet
39356 IPs (+0) -- 2791 Ranges Banned (+0) || 3 Inbound -- 69 Outbound Connections Blocked!
Where do I see these 69 Outbound Connections Blocked!
 
Skynet trims the log hourly, deleting all those messages and rolling them up into that line. You need to look at the last hour, or on the gui under firewall|skynet.

The easiest way is right from the Asus web UI, from the menu on the left, one of the last items near the bottom, "system log"

Sorry to jump in on this post but I have what I thought was a similar issue (may not be?) with what I know to be a safe site, that worked for days but just stopped working. If I check the site using my Phone (on LTE not on Wifi) it is fine, so it is definitely through the router.

The site is https://reachback.builtintelligence.com/

If I add (whitelist) the site and variants and what I think is the IP, none work. See attachments.
If I disable both Diversion and SkyNet it still doesn't work (hence the "what I thought" comment).

I use Cloudflare, both 1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1 and the IPv6 versions, i.e.

2606:4700:4700:0000:0000:0000:0000:1111
2606:4700:4700:0000:0000:0000:0000:1001

I mention this as oddly I am seeing these Cloudflare address entries in the logs, seemingly associated with the failed site:

Whenever I check the site with SkyNet and Diversion running I get this [BLOCKED - INBOUND] message repeated in the logs:

I'm really not sure what I am looking at here, but just odd it started days after installing Skynet (which was working fine until today).

Rebooting the Router did not help.
