PfSense-pkg-squid installation failed - cannot rename zh-tw.MCJqFBOr3rth
-
I've been able to install squid 3 on other pfsense boxes… but for some reason this one refuses.
It fails on extracting squid:
pkg: cannot rename //usr/local/etc/squid/errors/zh-tw.MCJqFBOr3rth to //usr/local/etc/squid/errors/zh-tw: Is a directoryI've checked that that file isn't there (likely cleaned up in failed-install).
I've deleted the directory but the installer still fails.Not sure how to fix this, I'd appreciate any ideas.

Hi,
I have exactly the same error here and no way to find anything. Did you succeed about it ?

I had the same problem
Executing this from Diagnostics > Command Prompt this solved it:rm -rf /usr/local/etc/squid/errors/zh*
I think these folders are leftovers from a previous Squid instalation.
