      Uninstall like explained above and then reinstall the package in the gui

      then type in the shell :

      ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl

      Make sure the log setting is switched on for squid and set to the standard dir and then go to lightsquid and refresh/update settings and it should work.

          Hi all,

          I've tried all the suggestions but still cant get lightsquid report to display anything other than the following:

          "LigthSquid diagnostic.
          Error : report folder '/var/lightsquid/report' not contain any valid data! Please run lightparser.pl (and check 'report' folder content)
          Please check config file !

          Variable                                                   value
          $tplpatph                                             /usr/local/www/lightsquid/tpl
          $templatename                                     base
          $langpatph                                             /usr/local/share/lightsquid/lang
          $langname                                             eng
          $reportpath                                             /var/lightsquid/report
          Access to '/var/lightsquid/report' folder     yes

          folder content:

          /var/lightsquid/report folder has no data (files/folders) in it so there is a definate problem. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

          Thanks,

          helwoe

            1. You must check squid logging for enable, use some time squid, and after refresh LS from GUI
            2. And check perl for exists - type 'pkg_info' from console (post here pls).

              Thanks for the reply.

              I took a break (college professor insists we do this) after a few hours and took another look, lightsquid report was working!

              Nice tool to play with!

              Cheers

                Hi all! Still having problems with lightsquid. :-\

                I reinstalled the package as directed in this thread, made the symlink (ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl), checked permissions on index.cgi, graph.cgi and restarted the box several times. Still getting the 500 error when I ask for the graphics reports. Text reports work OK. Any tips or leads that could help me?

                BR

                    Possible look you 'pkg_info' from shell?

                        Last time I had a problem, the instructions in this thread worked for me.

                        In summary:
                        While it was installed in the WebGUI, go to the shell.
                        pkg_delete lightsquid*
                        ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl
                        Go back to the webgui and install it again.

                        After that, it worked like a charm.

                          So, you mean to run the pkg_delete command before uninstalling the package from the GUI? Humm, I´ll try! Thanks.

                            Yes, run the pkg_delete command while it is still installed from the WebGUI.

                            I also added this procedure to the Wiki as an FAQ, so let me know if it doesn't work for you.

                              :-\ no, it doesn´t work for me. The uninstall goes ok but the symlink tells me that there is already a /usr/bin/perl file. Should I delete this file and run the symlink again? About to give up with lightsquid… :( . Oh! just the graphics interface (graph.cgi only involved) is giving me trouble. Numeric data shows ok.

                              Regards.

                                What do you see when you try this?

                                # ls -l /usr/bin/perl
                                

                                It should look like this:

                                lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  19 Dec 13 17:30 /usr/bin/perl -> /usr/local/bin/perl
                                

                                You can also test perl like so:

                                # /usr/bin/perl -v
                                

                                You should get a short answer stating the version and license info.

                                You might also try looking in the lighthttpd error log:

                                # cat /var/log/lighttpd.error.log

                                    What about these?

                                    # find / -name "GD.pm"

                                    # pkg_info | grep -i "gd-2*"

                                    p5-GD-2.39          A perl5 interface to Gd Graphics Library version2
                                    
                                    # cat /var/db/pkg/p5-GD-2.39/+REQUIRED_BY
                                    lightsquid-1.7.1_1
                                    

                                    I'm not sure why yours wouldn't be properly pulling the dependencies like it should.

                                    I suppose you could also try to remove lightsquid, gd, p5-GD, and so on and reinstall.

                                    I wonder if perl uninstalled, removed the GD lib, but the package info for GD is still hanging out and thinks it is installed.

                                    Sounds like a real mess, but recoverable if that's the case.

                                        No need to do that dvserg. Thanks a lot anyway. It is not critical for us right now. We´ll try to debug this pointing to the GD graphics package.

                                          I still get the "500 - Internal Server Error" on pfSense 1.2-RELEASE

                                          When I type:

                                          # pkg_info | grep -i "gd-2*"
                                          

                                          I get no output - these two packages are not installed. How can I get them installed?
