      I believe dvserg has fixed this issue, but I have not tried the newest version yet.  It almost sounds to me like acidrop hasn't put anything in the Default Redirect section of the default tab.  Have you entered in a URL in that section acidrop

        hello ciarocci!

        first of all i've read all articles but i didn't fully understood what's going on.. :)
        secondly yes i've put in default redirect an url (a local web server address which points to a page that says: "this page is blocked by your admin") but instead of this appears the error that i told you before…

          acidrop, try putting your pfSense webGUI back on http and see what happens.  You may have to apply changes again in SquidGuard after you do that.  There might still be a problem with this working in HTTPS?  DVSerg?  I myself am unable to change my webGUI to port 80 because it just won't change no matter how many times I apply the change, but that is another issue and others have said they have no problem doing that.  Give that a try and report back.

            automatically although it's enabled..i have to press apply again to make it work

              Hi all
              Still, the problem remains with HTTPS?
              Please say - this problem bof modes: on transparent and on non-transparent?
              –-
              To acidrop - yes, this bug exists and i know about.

              PS thanks all for replaying.  :)

                hi dvserg !

                I've checked it on both transparent and non transparent mode and the problem is the same.

                  Confirmed.  On HTTPS the errors still persist.

                      the error is now corrected…de-install squidguard and install again..you will see a new option on the general settings: Redirect mode

                        Awesome, the redirects work as planned.  One thing to note, the redirects do not work if you put them in the "Destinations" section.

                          How does it happens? Example exists?

                            I think I spoke too soon.  I tried to re-create the problem and give you an example and I could not.  Maybe I just didn't give the APPLY button the good old "hit it twice" try.  :-)

                              first off squidGuard has been working great thank you. I recently switched pfSense webGUI to https and now by errors page are not working. it gives and error that requested URL could not be retrieved. I scanned through this page and I was curious if a work around has been found so that the custom error message would appear. prior when i was running the standard port 80 it worked fine FYI

                              thanks!

                                It's known problem. With https you can use ext block page (placed on external www server). Use setting on thirst page GUI and redirect path frames in rules ACL page

                                  I knew it was a problem, just hoped that there was a solution now. Oh well, once again thank you!
