        syslogd - the system logger, received a signal '15', which means it received from 'above' a controlled process shut down. So it exited.
        If syslogd was one of the first processes to receive this signal, the shut down of all other process - and possible, the reason, are not logged so not known.

        Btw : if there was a lock up, there are no logs neither.

        The solution is : use the console (better) or SSH (best) access.
        Get connected.
        Start looking at at the command line around 23h50 and be patient.

        Remember : the GUI is only fine for when things go well ;)

        @ikram said in Reboot Pfsense automatically:

        the service cron is not enable

        In that case your pfSense would not function at all. The cron service is always enabled.

        I advise you to install the pfSense Cron package.
        You can see what's in it, what happens and when.
