I can't get SARG Report working

marcelloc

Ok, never mind.

BTW, I'm not from pfsense team. Just a community user like many others…

Oh, I had no idea. I thought you were an employee of ESF. My mistake.

hello guys,

By removing the /usr/local/sarg-reports folder and creating a symlink to /usr/pbi/amd-64/local/sarg-reports, it worked for me…

Report options:
graphics where possible
remove temp files
generate main index
generate index tree
overwrite report
show downloaded volume

Reports to generate
all selected

versions
Sarg : 2.3.9 v 0.6.4
Squid : 3.4.10_2 0.2.6
squidguard-suid3 : 1.4_7 v 1.9.6

This works for 2.2:

rm -r /usr/local/sarg-reports
ln -s /usr/pbi/sarg-amd64/local/sarg-reports /usr/local/sarg-reports

Simple solution, it really is. Run pfSense in one Virtural Machine and run Squid 3.5.1 (Squid is developed on FreeBSD) on another VM in a different subnet. Use wpad.dat/proxy.pac to seamlessly integrate the two. Sarg works really well this way installed from packages. AND you will learn a lot doing it.

And it just works better this way.

On freebsd ports, squid is still on 3.4

When it gets updated to 3.5 I'll update pfsense package.

I never understood why Squid lags behind on FreeBSD ports. The official repository states that Squid is developed on FreeBSD and the generic compile instructions are for FreeBSD.

http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/CompilingSquid

Since I run pfSense on ESXi, it makes it very easy to just fire up a minimal VM and build Squid from source. It seems to me to be a cleaner setup this way and I have far less problems with adding utility to Squid when I need it. Sarg works great and has full functionality. As it is, I have less the $200.00us in my ESXi pfSense/Squid setup.

I'm only stating this as an option. I am not taking away from the fine pfSense Squid package.

Seems a loop process. If Amos release a version and update it on ports, would be easier.

Thanks for the suggestion.
