      pfsense 2.2.6
      Squid
      Captive Portal with Radius authentication via AD.

      I have been running pfsense 2.2.6 on VMware for a few years without issue. In the past few weeks when trying to access the admin webpage i am getting the following on Chrome

      The page isn’t working
      pfsense server didn’t send any data.
      ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

      I can restart the server and it may work for a few moments but then it just stops. Users can still login via CP and browse the web.

      Nothing has changed on the VMware side. I have done a clean install of 2.2.6, done a clean install of the latest version but I get the same symptoms.

      Any ideas.

      cheers

        I have an idea

        My DHCP scope included the IP address of the pfsense server and therefore someones mobile was picking up the same address as the pfsense IP address which I assigned as static. It was all my fault.

        Good stuff.
