      strange… do you have pptp as a wan interface or a vpn-dial-in-interface ?

          I to am having the same exact issue.

          Edit: I had to comment out the pptpd rules in squid.inc to get it working.

          /* Handle PPTP case */
          /*		if($config['pptpd']['mode'] != "off") {
          			$rules .= "rdr on \$pptp proto tcp from any to !(\$pptp) port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 80\n";
          		}	
          */	
          		$rules .= "\n";
          		break;
          	case 'filter':
          		foreach ($ifaces as $iface){
          			$rules .= "# Setup squid pass rules for proxy\n";
          			$rules .= "pass in quick on $iface proto tcp from any to !($iface) port 80 flags S/SA keep state\n";
          			$rules .= "pass in quick on $iface proto tcp from any to !($iface) port $port flags S/SA keep state\n";
          			$rules .= "\n";
          		};
          		if($config['pppoe']['mode'] == "off") {
          			$rules .= "pass in quick on \$pppoe proto tcp from any to !(\$pppoe) port $port flags S/SA keep state\n";			
          		}			
          /*		if($config['pptpd']['mode'] != "off") {
          			$rules .= "pass in quick on \$pptp proto tcp from any to !(\$pptp) port $port flags S/SA keep state\n";
          		}	
          */		
          		break;
          	default:
          		break;
          	}
          
          	return $rules;
          }
          ?>

            well, yes !
            i'm just wondering about and found the error…
            perhaps you could test if it works if you put this as pptpd:

            		if($config['pptpd']['mode'] == "server") {
            			$rules .= "rdr on \$pptp proto tcp from any to !(\$pptp) port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 80\n";
            		}	
            

            would you please tell me after this ?

              this doesn't work for me, filter errors again
              There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:345: macro 'pptp' not defined/tmp/rules.debug:345: syntax error pfctl: Syntax error in config file: pf rules not loaded - The line in question reads [345]: pass in quick on $pptp proto tcp from any to !($pptp) port 3128 flags S/SA keep state…

              This page will automatically refresh every 3 seconds until the filter is done reloading.

                could you please paste your pptpd portion without any private data of your config.xml ? or pm me ?

                Diagnostics > Edit File > /conf/config.xml > Load > search for pptpd and then everything between <pptpd>and</pptpd> ?

                thanks…

                    ok, same problem here… sometimes there seems to be some pptp-mode string missing...

                    which pfsense version are you using ?

                              Hello

                              I have the same problem after installing the latest squid.
                              I'm using Pfsense 1.2 final dual WAN with squid+squidguard+lightsquid in transparent mode.
                              If i disable transparent mode i don't get the error message.
                              I removed all the packages and installed them again but the error appears again..

                              Any ideas?

                                i temporarily disabled the pptp usage in squid, so update your xml-config and it should work… please let me know...
