      We are planning at the moment to put the squidguard package onto several production pfsense machines.

      Is this package error-free to work cleanly with production machines?

                  Sounds like "direct" output to web server from the PHP scripts instead of "buffered" output.  I have not looked at the php  configuration in the pfSense system - is it set to buffer output???

                  Just wondering…

                  gm...

                      Sorry…
                      if i create an ACL and delete this item, so the ACL list is empty the following error occurs....

                      Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /usr/local/pkg/squidguard.inc on line 414 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /usr/local/pkg/squidguard.inc:414) in /usr/local/www/pkg.php on line 87

                      Another blacklist update?

                        Hello dvserg,
                        for me it blocks nothing with the default configuration, maybe my fault…
                        Do you have a small tutorial for starting.

                          Add one entry on Destination page (i will insert checking for empty listing)

                          Quick start

                          Probably You have error in config - in this situation SG generated small block config
                          Check log on thirts page (general) for found error messages.

                            I took  a look at you tutorial, but my webgui-log shows errors and says "starts with default". I see the ACL errors, but i didn´t have ACL´s in my config. I have downloaded the shallalist and the logs says that the db is OK. At the End i click on the Apply button and then this happens.

                            Here my log…

                              Hello,
                              last Test:

                              First of all, i think the acl page have problems. If i delete ACL Lines, the Line shows a blank config. If i restarted squidguard errors appears.

                              -  Source not found….

                              Now i edit the acl line and filling a few words in it and checked disable. After that, i have made a restart at the generel page with clicing the apply button.

                              For me it looks Ok, but also nothing content was blocked...

                              I don´t know where my config is buggy. Maybe, take a look at the screenshots
                              I don´t use the transparent proxy feature but local user authentication.

                                I'm getting something similar…all was well until recently..... After awhile the error stops showing and Squidguard is apparently running, but no content gets blocked. If I re-install I get the same issue.

                                Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /usr/local/pkg/squidguard_configurator.inc on line 367 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /usr/local/pkg/squidguard_configurator.inc:367) in /usr/local/www/pkg_edit.php on line 35

                                    I occasionally get the implode type of error when I've deleted a destination group or blacklist group and haven't gone through all the ACLs to update them.  Perhaps it's a similar problem?

                                    Also, heiko, I am using squidGuard in a production environment and am happy with the results.

                                      This happens on fresh install with no destination groups deleted. It happens after uploading Blacklist or hitting apply changes. Then error goes away and no content is blocked.

                                        Thanks for previous bug-report's.
                                        I fix it (may be  >:( ) and update sources.
                                        If possible check this bugs now.

                                        Also i remake ACL-ordering code for more stable.

                                          Seems to be working now. Since the last few changes, I can no longer access the blocked log report tab….I get block_log report disabled. The other thing I'm trying to figure out is how to whitelist certain sites that are in the blacklist...

                                            I disable this function. After short time i return to renew this code with more quick algorithm (i houpe).
                                            If you need this now - you can modify squidGuard.php:

                                            • comment with '#' line 710
                                            #                                $slog .= 'block_log report disabled';  
                                            
                                            • delete '/' and '/' symbols in  711 and 747 lines.

                                            ps this actual on today time; in next time code can changed.
