      sounds not good  :'(

      is there any possibility to check file system from shell?
      any default command is not possible due to restriction…

        …
        so i tried to edit config.xml to revert connections to HTTP, but i can not get the system to read-write. I am using the script:

        
         /etc/rc.conf_mount_rw
         vi /conf/config.xml
        
        

        these 2 command can be replaced by :
        viconfig
        @yasinis:

        and get after editing following failure:

        
        Read-only file, not written; use ! to override.
        
        

        this is a pretty good 99,9 % that your media is out of order.
        It good be a small file system glitch ….. (what ? no UPS ???)
        Or a bad sector ....

        is there any possibility to check file system from shell?

        Of course :
        Find some instruction here : https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/1823/
        Or here : https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Forcing_a_Filesystem_Check

        I advise you change the disk right away - this way you won't fall for something like this : https://www.reddit.com/r/PFSENSE/comments/3611me/a_bad_sector_repairing_pfsense_after_the_mess/

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          great, thank you for your advice.
          i already found these stuff, also tryed them without solution.

          my idea was also, that ssd is going to r.i.p. :-(
          need to get a new one asap..

          or would you advice me to use SD or USB for install destination?

            No, SD/USB is a whole lot worse option.

            Also, if you are using SSD, there's really no good reason to use embedded nanobsd (abandoned with 2.4 anyway.)

              i'm sorry, i did not recognize you thought that i am using a nanobds image.
              that's wrong - i am using the default image, installed via usb installer directly to ssd on apu1d4 hardware :-)

                No idea what you've been attempting with  /etc/rc.conf_mount_rw in that case.

                  Nudge the firewall to create you a new GUI certificate, the one you have selected isn't usable for some reason.

                      hey guys - i wanted to give you feedback about this.

                      actually  i bought a new ssd, went to the datacenter and first trying a reboot on APU-Hardware.
                      after reboot firewall was booting OK - a little bit confusing me.

                      so i was:

                      • not able to change config
                      • not able to restart webgui
                      • not able to reboot pfsense remotely

                      but after power cycle the box came up again…

                      any possibility to see in the logs what happened?

                        After the box reboots, goto console (or use a ssh client if sshd is activated) - option 8 (shell) and type

                        dmesg
                        

                        The entire boot process will be showed, up until the point everything is loaded (mounted) and started.
                        At the end, look for file system errors (read only mode for example).

                        dmesg is more a hardware log - all devices are found, activated etc.

                        The "dmesg" log will be overwritten when rebooted.
