PKG installer high CPU
-
I started noticing my Pfsense gateway slowed down, then I have found out the CPU is always 100% because of pkg installer.
So I backed up the config without packages, reinstalled pfsense and imported old config.
Still there is an issue in retrieving the list of package, and cpu utilisation is abnormal.CPU Activity

Updating pfsense-core repository catalogue…
NOthing happens. I have rebooted several times after waiting much longer that usual
Where can i find pkg installer logs?
How can I clean the cache or old package list? -
"reinstalled pfsense" sounds the 100% sure way to clean cache..?
