I get
cannot reach the netgate servers please verify your network settingserror on Installation in hyper v machine with gen 2, 8192 mb, 30 gb disk, 1 external and 1 internal network adapter, boot from harddrive and tpm enabled with 4 processor. I also checked the external switch is working or not and it does receive and send packets on windows adapter properties. Any help? -
Same issue happening to me on the latest download, 24.03-beta-2.
What is interesting is that the download filename is pfSense-plus-installer-24.02-BETA2-amd64-20240312-0600; however the console install is showing 24.03.
-
The Installer version is 24.02-Beta but it can install 24.03-REL.
If the installer fails choose 'Exit' then check the log:
cat /var/log/daemon.log -
Here is my daemon.log
-
Looks like it failed to connect to NTP.
Can you ping
ews.netgate.com? -

Ah so DNS is not working. Are you passing DNS servers to the VM via DHCP? Are you blocking DNS somehow?
-
@stephenw10 I am not sure, I just bought a nested server from a company and started to install hyper-v right away and disabled the windows firewall completely at my second attempt to ensure it installs pfsense but no luck i don't know how to unblock or block a dns.
-
If you boot some other VM does that have DNS?
-
@stephenw10 how can i check that?
-
Boot something else in hyper-V. Then try to connect to a host and see if it resolves.
-
This is from windows server 2022 vm. I assume i need to manually adjust some settings on network adapters how can i do that?
-
OK so it seems like whatever is running DHCP for those VMs is not passing any DNS servers. That is presumably some Hyper-V setting.
