February 8, 20215 yr Providing logs with armbianmonitor -u helps with troubleshooting and significantly raises chances that issue gets addressed.
February 9, 20215 yr Latest wireguard version is shipped with a kernel. You only need to apt install wireguard-tools. I added them to our repository but update takes 24h. You can manually install them and it should work: http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/wireguard/wireguard-tools_1.0.20200827-1~bpo10+1_armhf.deb
February 10, 20215 yr Hi Igor, Thank you for the download but get the following error: noname@hc1:~$ sudo apt install wireguard-tools_1.0.20200827-1_bpo10+1_armhf.deb Reading package lists...

Thanks for helping ChriWo
February 10, 20215 yr wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/wireguard/wireguard-tools_1.0.20200827-1~bpo10+1_armhf.deb sudo dpkg -i wireguard-tools_1.0.20200827-1~bpo10+1_armhf.deb
February 11, 20215 yr Dear Igor, Thank you very much with this command sudo dpkg -i wireguard-tools_1.0.20200827-1~bpo10+1_armhf.deb it is working. Best regards ChriWo
July 17, 20233 yr Hi, this seems to be an issue again with Odroid XU4 + Armbian. When I try to bring up a Wireguard interface I get: jul 17 12:52:30 odroidxu4 wg-quick[1940]: [#] ip link add wg0 type wireguard jul 17 12:52:30 odroidxu4 wg-quick[1949]: Error: Unknown device type. jul 17 12:52:30 odroidxu4 wg-quick[1952]: Unable to access interface: Protocol not supported Both wireguard and wireguard tools are up to date, I restarted the device multiple times. "sudo dkms status" doesn't output anything. Based on "sudo apt update" / "sudo apt dist-upgrade" I'm up to date. Looks like the wireguard module isn't loaded at all: $ sudo lsmod | grep wire <no output> Version information: $ uname -a Linux odroidxu4 5.4.243-odroidxu4 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon May 22 13:57:29 UTC 2023 armv7l GNU/Linux $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Armbian 23.05.1 bookworm Release: 12 Codename: bookworm I tried to find some "odroidxu4 specific kernel headers package", but that fails: $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-headers-current-odroidxu4 Compiling headers - please wait ...

Makefile:927: scripts/Makefile.ubsan: No existe el fichero o el directorio make: *** No hay ninguna regla para construir el objetivo 'scripts/Makefile.ubsan'. Alto. How can I make Wireguard usable on the OdroidXU4 with Armbian?

July 24, 20233 yr Hi Igor, thanks for the quick reply! On 7/17/2023 at 6:22 PM, Igor said: Try EDGE kernel. Module for WG should be already in. For this 5.4.y kernel we need to look why headers are broken ... How can I do that? Is there a specific package I should install? Thanks.
July 30, 20233 yr On 7/24/2023 at 2:54 PM, Werner said: Try with armbian-config -> system -> other Thanks, that worked. However the edge kernel doesn't seem to have the eCryptfs module (the one which can be used to encrypt home directories: https://man.archlinux.org/man/extra/ecryptfs-utils/ecryptfs-migrate-home.8.en). When I tried to go back to the current kernel (again with armbian-config -> system -> other), the whole system just didn't start after reboot. I'll have to re-flash my eMMC storage with armbian.
July 30, 20233 yr You can always go ahead and use the build framework to build a kernel package or whole image with kernel configuration customized and stuff added you need: https://github.com/armbian/build
August 8, 20233 yr Same Problem here. I activated the edge kernel, then wireguard worked, but my xu4 can't reboot. After reboot command, system ist not reachable over the network. (pull the plug fixes this, but after reboot command, same problem) any ideas?
September 15, 20233 yr I moved to the edge kernel this evening following Werner's advice and it solved my wireguard installation issues on my Odroid HC2. No problem on reboot, either. Thank you.
November 29, 20241 yr apologies to hi-jack this thread Armbian_24.5.2 noble_vendor_6.1.43_gnome-oibaf_desktop version WG can not start after a reboot.... I have enabled and started the services but no good... am i doing something missing ?
November 29, 20241 yr could you please provide some steps on how to check and how to enable ? it appears i have to manually do this command to get it started after a reboot sudo systemctl enable wg-quick@wg0 sudo systemctl start wg-quick@wg0 sudo wg-quick up wg0
November 29, 20241 yr Check if wireguard is present under lsmod Also check your logs (journal, syslog,...) which should tell you something about why things fail.
November 29, 20241 yr Please assist ... after reboot here are the details... note.. i did have this working a few weeks ago... but after sudo update.. it stopped even after a fresh install.. root@orangepi5-plus:~# sudo systemctl status wg-quick@wg0.service × wg-quick@wg0.service - WireGuard via wg-quick(8) for wg0 Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/wg-quick@.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sat 2024-11-30 00:05:18 AEDT; 1min 31s ago Docs: man:wg-quick(8) man:wg(8) https://www.wireguard.com/ https://www.wireguard.com/quickstart/ https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-tools/about/src/man/wg-quick.8 https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-tools/about/src/man/wg.8 Process: 1276 ExecStart=/usr/bin/wg-quick up wg0 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 1276 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) CPU: 56ms Nov 30 00:05:18 orangepi5-plus systemd[1]: Starting WireGuard via wg-quick(8) for wg0...

November 29, 20241 yr 1 hour ago, BOFFBOY said: Nov 30 00:05:18 orangepi5-plus wg-quick[1338]: Name or service not known: `myipaddresshereremoved.com:51820' This is likely the error you are running into. Is that your valid domain name for your wireguard server? I have had issues with wireguard starting before DNS name resolution is in place which I resolved by using IP addresses in the wireguard config files instead of domain names.
November 29, 20241 yr oh my goodness yes you are correct.. when i use the IP address it fixes it.. how can i use domain name in the endpoint ? must be something i need to config ? i missed a step ? ps i really need to use a domain..
November 29, 20241 yr Don't know, as I am fine with using the IP address so never researched further. I suspect it is a timing issue between DNS starting and wireguard starting.
