Sophos XG Firewall 17.5: Logs are not updating on the GUI "Log Viewer"

Sophos XG firewall is offering on Device Reporting and logs, which is a good feature for all SMBs. There is another module "Sophos iView" available for logs and reporting but it is good for some critical organization or big data Center who need a lot of logs, reports, and backup of all those.   

Recently, I faced an issue as there is no log showing on the GUI "Log Viewer" but you will see all logs through the command line or some new logs on the auxiliary device but not on the primary devices (new logs not updating). This issue is reported on a virtual and hardware firewall as well. Today I am going to share how to handle this issue without book a ticket with the NOC team.

 

Issue Reported:

Logs are not updating on the GUI "Log Viewer" application of the Sophos XG firewall.

  • Garner is crashing about every 3-4 days on my XG450 and using MR-6

    Do we know what is actually causing the crash of Garner?

     

    Bit of a pain in the butt :-(

  • Soon as I turn on the following 2 settings it will crash after a few days. This is on MR5. I have not had chance to try this on MR6.

    If I turn them off and then restart services all is fine.
