While we are at it, another problem I noticed: Rejects are not shown as such in the widget or log, they are all blocks. [image: 1692684427411-capture3.png] [image: 1692684435468-capture1.png] [image: 1692684440549-capture2.png]

@MonitorGuy Fixed by changing the number of lines to view in GUI from 5000 to 1000

@Gertjan Just a FYI, it was a MTU issue. Everything was set to 9000 except for the vSwitch in esx where the pfsense was running.

@Eugene_Tar said in webConfigurator authentication error: 2.5.1 Oh boy. That one is ancient. Coming from that one I would (free advise !) re install, and while doing so, use the new, way better, ZFS file system. @Eugene_Tar said in webConfigurator authentication error: /cf/conf/config.xm Make a backup copy of this file. Then, from the console menu Reset webConfigurator password or even better : option 4. Now the password is known and default. It still doesn't work ? You're good for a complete re install. This will solve the issue for sure with just one silly side effect : we'll never known what went wrong.

@rcoleman-netgate thanks

@q54e3w The only difference from the guide and my setup is the pi-hole. Which is one reason why I am having issues. Like I explained I had it set up and worked great before my venture to the nguvu setup.....

@KB8DOA you can give it a commit ID. Or just update pfSense as noted. https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/development/system-patches.html#patch-settings

that worked worked

@viragomann , Thanks for your prompt reply. I will give it a try.

@conbonbur : Like the solution of johnpoz, which needed the console or SSH access, you could also use option 15 : 0) Logout (SSH only) 9) pfTop 1) Assign Interfaces 10) Filter Logs 2) Set interface(s) IP address 11) Restart webConfigurator 3) Reset webConfigurator password 12) PHP shell + Netgate pfSense Plus tools 4) Reset to factory defaults 13) Update from console 5) Reboot system 14) Disable Secure Shell (sshd) 6) Halt system 15) Restore recent configuration 7) Ping host 16) Restart PHP-FPM 8) Shell Use a config that was made just before de deletion. Just for my own curiosity : deleted in the GUI, you were not using it ? Something else ? @viragomann said in "webConfigurator default" certificate: Yes, you can restore it from a config backup.

@Gertjan said in Why is my GUI suddenly (only) available at port 4443??????????: The fact that pointing a 192.168.55.1 at port 4443 shows the pfSense GUI means that there is a 'firewall' that is doing something. Like redirecting incoming TCP traffic on port 4333 to TCP 443. Yeah, seems plausible.

@jimp Almost all of the clients are (heavily) active during the screenshot. NDP does indeed have the MAC addresses and all the devices have associated hostnames. I can get all the correct details from the CLI and there is nothing amiss with IPv6, NDP, dhcpd.leases or dhcpd6.leases (or with IPv4 either). With the CLI I can see that everything is working as normal/expected - not so with the GUI Status display. It's only the sparsely populated and incorrect status listed in the GUI that I am raising. Underneath the GUI everything is working just fine. ️

@Gertjan Thank you very much Gertjan I did the steps you mentioned by changing the port of http and it worked successfully. The proxy server is working normally now and at the same time I can access webgui of pfsense. Thank you again

@jimp said in Interfaces list longer than screen height: It's probably set to Fixed and you'll need to change that to Scrolls with page. Yes, was set to Fixed. This helps, thank you @jimp

@adeparker or try removing the "bad" section from the config file: https://forum.netgate.com/topic/180957/possible-bug-on-23-05-bulk-import-of-aliases-causes-full-brick-of-pfsense/7

@b_hammer said in Fatal Error: /etc/inc/notices.inc(101): fopen('', 'w') The file shouldn't be empty ( '' ) but '/tmp/noctices' What happened is : /etc/inc/notices.inc start be reading (including) /etc/inc/globals.inc and that didn't happen.
