          On a brand new pfsense 2.3-RELEASE (amd64)

          I have edited /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/pfSense.conf and set the following value:

          FreeBSD: { enabled: yes }

          I have then run :

          pkg update

          Then:

          pkg install nano git

          This then results in:

          
pkg install nano git

          This then loops over and over and does not stop.

          The same then happens if I run

          pkg install mysql56-server

          What am I missing please?

            This is the bug of pkg and will fix in pkg 1.7.2:

            https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues/1303

            "" pkg infinite loop with multiple repos containing different versions of pkg ""

            you can comment out all other repo and install what you want, then restore the configuration to default.

            after install, the pkg will update to the last version that may cause the pfsense package system stop working, to resolve this:

            run:

            "pkg delete -f pkg" and install it again with pfsense repo.

              Hello Ozy, thank you so much for taking the time to do this. I can not stress how helpful this is!

              I know this is a lot to ask but if anyone is considering to make a how to video I would really appreciate this. I am not so fluent in this type of configuration. Thank you!

                I have set the FreeBSD: { enabled: yes } but when I try to install the mysql56-server I get:

                Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue…
                pfSense-core repository is up-to-date.
                Updating pfSense repository catalogue...

                All repositories are up-to-date.
                pkg: No packages available to install matching 'mysql56-server' have been found in the repositories

                Almost as if it is not looking in the FreeBSD repo.

                I have restarted after enabling FreeBSD and gone back in to check that it is enabled.

                Any ideas?  Thanks

                  Hi,

                  I've updated the captive portal code a couple of days ago with some bug fixes and minor improvements.
                  Sorry for not having answered earlier, been in holidays :)

                  @novensiles: can you give the output of "php -m" ?
                  @abebraham: sorry, but I think the text howto is enough. It's also easier to update it than to update a video. Feel free to ask for help here on the forum or github.
                  @beewolf: Repo files slightly changed between 2.3-RC and 2.3 final. I've updated the doc for this.

                    Many thanks for that - all installed fine with those changes but I am getting the following error on trying to log in:

                    PHP ERROR: Type 1, File /var/etc/captiveortal_guest_wifi.html, Line 127, Message: Call to undefined functionmysql_connect()

                    Probably something I have done but am struggling to find what exactly.  Any ideas?  Thanks

                          It seems that the mysql extension is there.
                          Can you please restart php-fpm ? And if it does not work, restart pfSense ?

                            Yes, thank you that worked - I should have tried that first!!

                            All seems to be working now in a test environment - just one thing, Freeradius needs to be started manually after a restart.  Is this usual?  Would it be possible to add the service to the MySQL cron job so it definitely starts automatically?

                              I'll add a note about rebooting to the guide.

                              As for the freeradius service, it depends on mysql service.
                              As there is no loading order, sometimes freeradius loads before mysql and may fail.

                              In order to get FreeRADIUS working all the time, I've setup the watchdog package to restart failing services.

                                    As stated above, you have the php mysql extension.
                                    Please restart php-fpm from console and try again.

                                      My system has been running fine for a week - I had to restart to get the cables sorted neatly and now whatever I do I cant get Freeradius to start.  There is another post here:

                                      https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=109775.msg611138#msg611138

                                      with similar symptoms to what I am getting and I have tried the suggestions in that but no difference.

                                      I realise that this is probably a freeradius/pfsense problem but really need some help sorting it - I don't want to have to rebuild again!

                                      Many thanks

                                        is it possible to use a node.js file for the captive portal? Or using mongodb?
