Hello,
I installed pfsense 2.2.2 and enabled Captive Portal service.
I click Enable captive portal and set interface for LAN.
I use local user auth and create one user.
I can see login page and keyin username and password.
But it's will get error message like attachment.
I make sure account and password is correct.
Could I lose any settings?

If you have the "Allow only users/groups with 'Captive portal login' privilege set" option checked, you'll have to create a group, assign that group the "captive portal login" privilege, then put your CP users into that group.

that has no relation to captive portal, OP's circumstance works perfectly fine in 2.2.2.
