        Update from 2.1.5 to 2.2

        Had installed on 2.15 packages

        squid3
        squidGuard-squid3

        upgrading to 2.2 in services i get

        squid
        squidgurad
        i-cap
        clamd

        non of them could start

        Uninstall packages squid3 and squidguard-squid3

        Reinstall them and squid is working ok but squidguard(after checking the option not to check for sign packages), although after several restarts seems as running service, does not filter at all. Looking at squidgurad.conf has no options comparing from the one in 2.1.5.

        Clamd does not start at all.

        Followed advices of apost I found on the forum(can't find it now)for changing some options in i-cap.cong through squid gui , does not help at all.

        Bottom line: Tottaly messed the squid-squidguard infrastracture in 2.2

        Can someone give directions, step-by step how to make squid3 and squidguard operational in 2.2?

        Or at least can someone confirm that squidguard is not working in 2.2 yet?

        P.S.

        found a locked topic which seems relevant…

          Squid3 is working fine on 2.2.

          Check and save each config tab from left to right on squid3 package.

          If there is any missing config, gui should warn you.

          I've tested squidguard once on my labs and it was working.
          You know that squidguard on squid3 runs by demand, so after saving it will show as stopped until squid receives traffic.

            I know its working on demand,actually it worked this way…

            My question is,after upgrading to 2.2 do we have to reinstall squid 3 and squidguard or they should work right "out of the box"?

            Are these packages suppose to keep their settings?
            Will newely i-cap,clamd should work immediatelly aftrr the upgrade?

            Thnks

              No, just check config gui tabs just like I've posted before..

              You may need to visit antivirus tab to be sure all options are fine for 2.2.

              Check paths on antivirus tab fields, all tests I did on 2.2 were with a clean install.

                  After setting the option in Advanced to not check SIGs on PBIs, got squidguard installed.

                  I can verify that stepping through tabs on squid and squidguard configs and saving each going along, it now works as it did in 2.1.5.

                  Thanks marcelloc!

                  No. Settings were still there for squiguard, but had to disable check PBI SIGs to get the package installed. But upgrade did not install squidguard on it's own.

                    Did you have squidguard installed on 2.1.5 and just upgraded? After upgraded you only had to reinstall squidguard or something else also?

                      In my case i had squidguard installed on 2.1.5 and after upgrading to pfsense 2.2 squidguard seems to be not installed and it is impossible to install it.

                        Hello,

                        I have upgraded from 2.1.5 to 2.2 and first I uninstall all the package; after reinstall I have this problems:

                        LightSquid - not working

                        Proxy Squid: Realtime stat (sqstat) help
                        
                        Squid RealTime stat 1.20 for the proxy server (unknown) (192.168.1.1:3128)
                        SqStat error
                        
                        Error (1): Cannot get data. Server answered: HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
                        

                        of course log looks like:

                        php-fpm[11421]: /pkg_edit.php: The command 'ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl' returned exit code '1', the output was 'ln: /usr/bin/perl: File exists'
                        

                        probably cause in: /usr/bin perl looks broken at Squid installation - No idea how to fix it, reinstall pkg did not help.
                        Any idea how to manual remote reinstall perl ?

                        and more:

                        I appreciate any help.
                        I have no access to console at this box so I have to do it remote if possible.

                        thank you

                          If you need squid itself out of pbi dir, you can install via pkg

                          Please, test it out of production environment.

                          pkg install perl5

                            +1 I've open a bug report for this a week or so ago.. but manually installing per5 does the trick.

                            Dont expect sqstat to work if you have ipv6 enabled. The code is very code and doesn't conform to IPv6, only IPv4 addresses. I've noticed this a couple of years ago when I started to used Squid3 (which supports IPv6, just not in the WebGUI).

                              Thank you for help, my problem was that I tried to do that remote not from pfSense console keyboard and I had no chance because I can't confirm installation when prompt from www.

                              Any way after I bring that pfSense box to my desk and hooked to monitor and keyboard and installed perl I was still unable to use LightSquid because of some other errors.

                              In the end all was messed and squid did not worked any more; I reinstall a clean 2.2 from CD but after full 2.2 config restore I saved before at first boot pfSense 2.2 freeze.  ::)

                              I reinstalled new 2.1.5 with latest 2.1.5 config saved and all it is working now.

                              No more 2.2 upgrading - testing for the moment I already lost 48h of my life with this new version… I have to sleep now. 8)

                                      Hi aityahiaidir and moh10ly,

                                      You both did this the hard way.

                                      Under System/Advanced under the Miscellaneous tab you'll find the attached. Just hit the checkbox and try the install again.

                                      Steve

                                        The squid squidguard install problem also happened on my server and here's what I did to resolve the issue:

                                        1. Went to System | Advanced | Miscellaneous and scrolled down to the end of the page and ticked
                                        Do NOT check package signature
                                        Enable this option to allow pfSense to install any package without checking its signature.

                                        2. Reinstall Squid3, then squidguard-squid3

                                        3. Re-downloaded blacklists from my previous source.

                                        4. Saved and applied configuration

                                        5. Squid and Squidguard is back to working condition.

                                        I'm still checking what happened to the Captive Portal as it does not seem to work now…

                                        Just sharing...

                                          You mean captive portal itself or squid  package integration with captive?

                                            No, Captive Portal is a separate issue with the 2.2 upgrade.

                                            It seems that it no longer works on my setup.
