      Hi,

      i just made a new install of the actual PFSENSE. Then i tried to install the Spamd Package
      and get teh following Error:

      Downloading package configuration file… done.
      Saving updated package information... done.
      Downloading spamd and its dependencies... done.
      Checking for successful package installation... failed!

      Installation aborted.

      The System log only says:

      Jan 31 01:40:11 syslogd: kernel boot file is /boot/kernel/kernel
      Jan 31 01:40:11 syslogd: exiting on signal 15
      Jan 31 01:40:10 php: /pkg_mgr_install.php: Beginning package installation for spamd.

      Thats it ! Any idea whats happen here ? Itried it 10 Times , always the same .

      Hope someone can give me the right idea .

      Thanks
      Herb

              Here are the content:

              SPAMD:

              )

              Package WAS NOT installed properly.

              PFFLOWD:

              cat pkg_mgr_pfflowd.log

              Beginning package installation.

              )

              Package WAS NOT installed properly.

              It seems that there are the wrong extensions ? Shouldnt it be .tgz ?

                Check DNS, check to make sure that FTP is working correctly from pfSense itself.

                No, it's TBZ:
