@jc1976 can you check if you hit the same issue as: Squid: "Undefined symbol "_ZTVNSt3__117bad_function_callE" after upgrade to 2.8?

@NetworkNerd Just in case you haven't tried this yet. The new Netgate online installer does provide you the option to set up the WAN interface connection details such as PPPoE etc as part of the process. I'm not a fan of the choice to remove offline installers by any means but at least they do provide this functionality.

@stephenw10 I a not using squid guard so I have to enable and check, I enabled the squid proxy server and squid guard proxy filter they both are running fine without any errors. Thanks for the help and quick response

For future reference you should always be able to upgrade to the newest offered version in one step. We test upgrades from the previous two versions.

...well, after some false starts (like loading 2.7.2 and running into different interface names on the new hardware (i,e. igc0 vs igb0, etc..) which did not allow th eloading of my VLANS etc... I ended up editing the backup config file, replacing "igb" for "igc", and loading 2.8.0... all is working great now on the new hardware.... I will wait until I can upgrade from 2.8.0 to Plus... reason to go to Plus is to contribute $ to the project, as I have been using pfSense for free for years now... am recently retired and delving into IT and learning as I go... Thanks for all the replies and suggestions !

@lansmurf said in Upgrade from 2.7.2 to 2.80 failed, unable to boot: You are right it is an image file of the installer... Ah, OK, thanks!

We were able to finally figure out all of the URLs that the pfSense box was sending requests too and we now have a working squid proxy. Thank you.

@fireodo said in php error with suricata after updating to 2.8: @bmeeks said in php error with suricata after updating to 2.8: Part of the install/update process for the package rebuilds the enabled rules. Maybe to much rules too? A possibility for sure, but the rules rebuild was apparently working under the previous pfSense version if I am understanding the OP correctly. He also has pfBlockerNG installed and it will use a lot of PHP memory for some tasks.

@patient0 : Thanks !!

Well we should have new installer version available quite soon so you could try that on it.

You should really use: `setenv bootcmd 'setLED; run mmcboot;' Otherwise you won't see the expected LED sequence at boot.Though it would still boot fine.

@dws I don't have a direct answer but if you spend much time on fixing it, it's probably easier to just format+reinstall and restore from backup (which can be done during the install).

Hmm, any errors show in the logs? How were you connected to it during the setup?

Your NDI will have changed if you replaced the hardware. Send me your NDI and the order number in chat and I'll check it.

Post was deleted, I guess they solved the problem.

@stephenw10 Thanks for the guidance Stephen. I’ll give that a try.

Did you try installing FreeBSD 15 to check for some upstream issue?

Indeed, where is it failing for you? What hardware are you running on?

Yup a clean install and restore will always work. Having that prepared and available is always a good idea.

@Finger79 I reinstall from scratch using 2.8 after disabling WIFI in the BIOS. Hopefully the bug is fixed in the near future.
