      I have it in production and I'm not seeing 1/10 of these issues. Yesterday I've forced a number of install/uninstall/reinstall combination to see almost all possibilities I can handle with coding.

      Not sure why your setup is so different from mine but if it's not happening on my labs I can't see what is going wrong.

      On the latest update  0.4.2.3, I've included a fix to -HOST- placeholder crash(at least on my boxes.

      Take a look on uninstall process. See if it removes e2guardian bsd package. If not, do it on console with pkg delete e2guardian.

      The native gui pkg process is something that I can't change.

      EDIT: after any install or upgrade ,I'm going to package, gui, click save then apply, to be sure all is in place.

      Blacklist files can be reapplied under blacklist gui if you are seeing missing files on logs.

        I've tried everything you've said. Even removing it via console and I'm still having trouble starting e2guardian. I even tried fixing the permissions but no joy.

        I don't know what else I can say but squid seems to be in a worse position lol. It completely screws up the main part of some url's for example if a website is "example.com/test" for some odd reason it'll try going to "https:///test".

          The etc files are left behind on uninstall. Maybe you should remove them manually in case they have being corrupted. Then reinstall with clean etc folder.

            what you get with :

            ls -l /usr/local/sbin/e2guardian
            and
            killall e2guradian;/usr/local/sbin/e2guardian -N

            ?

            EDIT Tested on a clean install on 2.3.4 amd64. e2guardian package only.

            Message from cyrus-sasl-2.1.26_12:
            You can use sasldb2 for authentication, to add users use:
            
            	saslpasswd2 -c username
            
            If you want to enable SMTP AUTH with the system Sendmail, read
            Sendmail.README
            
            NOTE: This port has been compiled with a default pwcheck_method of
                  auxprop.  If you want to authenticate your user by /etc/passwd,
                  PAM or LDAP, install ports/security/cyrus-sasl2-saslauthd and
                  set sasl_pwcheck_method to saslauthd after installing the
                  Cyrus-IMAPd 2.X port.  You should also check the
                  /usr/local/lib/sasl2/*.conf files for the correct
                  pwcheck_method.
                  If you want to use GSSAPI mechanism, install
                  ports/security/cyrus-sasl2-gssapi.
                  If you want to use SRP mechanism, install
                  ports/security/cyrus-sasl2-srp.
                  If you want to use LDAP auxprop plugin, install
                  ports/security/cyrus-sasl2-ldapdb.
            Message from squid-3.5.26:
            o You can find the configuration files for this package in the
                   directory /usr/local/etc/squid.
            
                 o The default cache directory is /var/squid/cache/.
                   The default log directory is /var/log/squid/.
            
                   Note:
                   You must initialize new cache directories before you can start
                   squid.  Do this by running "squid -z" as 'root' or 'squid'.
                   If your cache directories are already initialized (e.g. after an
                   upgrade of squid) you do not need to initialize them again.
            
                 o When using DiskD storage scheme remember to read documentation:
                     http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/DiskDaemon
                   and alter your kern.ipc defaults in /boot/loader.conf. DiskD will not
                   work reliably without this. Last recomendations were:
            
                     kern.ipc.msgmnb=8192
                     kern.ipc.msgssz=64
                     kern.ipc.msgtql=2048
            
                 o The default configuration will deny everyone but the local host and
                   local networks as defined in RFC 1918 for IPv4 and RFCs 4193 and
                   4291 for IPv6 access to the proxy service.  Edit the "http_access
                   allow/deny" directives in /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf
                   to suit your needs.
            
                 o If AUTH_SQL option is set, please, don't forget to install one of
                   following perl modules depending on database you like:
                     databases/p5-DBD-mysql
                     databases/p5-DBD-Pg
                     databases/p5-DBD-SQLite
            
                 To enable Squid, set squid_enable=yes in either
                 /etc/rc.conf, /etc/rc.conf.local or /etc/rc.conf.d/squid
                 Please see /usr/local/etc/rc.d/squid for further details.
            
                 Note:
                 If you just updated your Squid installation from an earlier version,
                 make sure to check your Squid configuration against the 3.4 default
                 configuration file /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf.sample.
            
                 /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf.documented is a fully annotated
                 configuration file you can consult for further reference.
            
                 Additionally, you should check your configuration by calling
                 'squid -f /path/to/squid.conf -k parse' before starting Squid.

                      I feel maybe something got corrupted somewhere down the line, since I one day updated via console by accident. When hitting 13 and updating the actual system (due to the "pkg" bug).

                      Here's the output I get when uninstalling…

                      I am seriously getting really frustrated, because Squid is even more of a buggy piece of sh** without E2Guardian. Some websites it can't even load… And when using Squid directly, I don't have Squid Guard so I have no filtering at this point in time, just open dns. I hope I have provided enough info, something seriously seems wrong here. :/

                      EDIT 2: FINALLY I FIXED IT WOOOW, MY HEAD IS RELIEVED!

                      I had to download the blacklist again, then set permissions, then  re-apply blacklist. And then press the 'play button' and it started!!

                        Really don't wanna lose my configs :( – It took a while to configure everything to a usable state.

                        They will be there. :)
                        All config stays on pfSense config.xml. The etc files just reflect what were saved on GUI.

                            If you want to force a blacklist download during install process, remove /usr/local/pkg/blacklist.tgz file after deinstall.

                              @pfsensation, I could reproduce the erros on lab.

                              The problem is with reinstall. It does the uninstall process that removes conf files but do not remove the e2guardian bsd package.

                              This way, some files 'get lost' in the process.

                              I'm working on it to fix and will push a fix.

                              thanks for all your feedbacks!  8)

                                fetch this file and try resintalling, upgrading, removing version e2guardian pkg v 0.4.2.5

                                fetch -o /usr/local/pkg/e2guardian.inc https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marcelloc/Unofficial-pfSense-packages/master/pkg-e2guardian4/files/usr/local/pkg/e2guardian.inc
                                

                                This fetch 'fixes' uninstall process from previous versions ( < 0.4.2.4) by replacing with current 0.4.2.5 e2guardian.inc file.

                                After upgrading, apply settings under services -> e2guardian.

                                What's new on 0.4.2.5

                                • Reduced uninstall remove file process to do not break reinstalls

                                • Improved watchdog script and gui realtime view.

                                  I've encountered a pfSense crash, again it seems to be related to E2Guardian. Wasn't able to collect any details on it. Then I realised there was an update for E2Guardian, I updated now and ended up with the same issue (couldn't start the service). Downloaded the blacklist again, then press play and it started.

                                  So maybe force or keep old blacklist when upgrading / installing?

                                  Also wanted to add that ShallaList categories still don't show D: – Just says "blocked site".

                                    I've encountered a pfSense crash, again it seems to be related to E2Guardian. Wasn't able to collect any details on it. Then I realised there was an update for E2Guardian, I updated now and ended up with the same issue (couldn't start the service). Downloaded the blacklist again, then press play and it started.

                                    Did you updated the inc file before the update? I did it on 3 different installs and upgrade was fine.

                                      What inc file are you referring to? I haven't touched any specific inc files.

                                        What's new on 0.4.2.5

                                        • Reduced uninstall remove file process to do not break reinstalls

                                        But if you are on 0.4.2.5, you don't need this fetch anymore.

                                          Let's see how this goes. Have you tried setting up HTTPS transparently? If I try forwarding port 443 to 8080 on the pfSense box, it breaks HTTPS. However it works fine on HTTP (port 80) this is how I have it setup already.

                                          I know it can be done without breaking HTTPS because smoothwall has this capability. You can get onto HTTPS sites just by installing their CA certificate (without setting up proxy settings on Android). And I am mentioning Android in particular because it doesn't have WPAD or any auto detection, so all the magic must be happening on the actual router itself, it is making HTTPS traffic go through the filter.

                                          Let me know if this can be done, it would be useful to have for guest devices. Not 100% sure but I think Squid has this, if we could set it up for certain IP's or ranges it would be fantastic. :)

                                          It's annoying to go around and actually manually configure the proxy settings for Android in particular, and some apps.

                                          EDIT: I think that Fortinet uses some kind of ARP poisoning as one way of working. Probably right up there with our brute force method of using NAT redirects. Even on IOS devices, they haven't always been the best when picking up the proxy settings from WPAD.

                                            e2guardian mitm does not work in transparent mode.  If you you want transparent mode you have to turn off mitm and block only by blacklist.

                                            I do not know the technicality why but I think is because to use SSL forging you need to authenticate the connection to a user/machine and that has to be in explicit mode.
