### Common Issues & Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
#### Fix `so-rcvbuf` warning in unbound
|
||||
|
||||
The configuration in `/etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/pi-hole.conf` sets the **socket receive buffer size** for incoming DNS queries to a higher-than-default value in order to handle high query rates:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
so-rcvbuf: 1m
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
As a result, you may see this warning in unbound logs:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
so-rcvbuf 1048576 was not granted. Got 425984. To fix: start with root permissions(linux) or sysctl bigger net.core.rmem_max(linux) or kern.ipc.maxsockbuf(bsd) values.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To fix it:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Check the current limit. This will show something like `net.core.rmem_max = 425984`:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo sysctl net.core.rmem_max
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Temporarily increase the limit to match unbound's request:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo sysctl -w net.core.rmem_max=1048576
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Make it permanent. Edit `/etc/sysctl.conf` and add or edit the line:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
net.core.rmem_max=1048576
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. Save and apply:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo sysctl -p
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. Restart unbound:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo service unbound restart
|
||||
```
|
||||
