            Totally broken idea in the first place. You do NOT install PBI sh*t via pkg.

                And here's what the syslog says:

                Jul 18 16:25:47 php-fpm[21496]: /pkg_mgr_install.php: Beginning package installation for freeradius2 .

                Any idea how to force the install via the command line?

                  Try installing it several times. Do you get same error every time?

                    The error message says it can't download the file.

                    Just as a test, try downloading the package from a web browser, just to see if you can access it.  Use this link: https://files.pfsense.org/packages/10/All//freeradius-2.2.6_3-amd64.pbi

                    I'm able to download the installation package at that link  If it doesn't work for you, maybe a firewall rule is blocking the download for some reason.

                      Thanks for the replies, guys. This is a clean install in VMware, nothing but internet connectivity and this is the first package I install. I have tried it multiple times on multiple clean installs. I can download the PBI and install it from shell using pbi_add, but then there is no GUI for freeradius on the web interface.

                      Any ideas?

                      Darkstat fails the same as well, I can install other packages.
