How would I reinstall pkg_edit.php?
I am getting it intermittently, I have 48 pfsense firewalls.
I first noticed it on my home firewall when 2.4.3 was just released, probably the Saturday after, my kids were yelling they had no internet, pfblocker stopped allowing all traffic, so I disabled it and it worked, so I updated to 2.4.3 and the pfblocker entry was gone, so I tried re-installing no dice, so I just removed it and went about my day. It's my home firewall, my only open ports are SSLVPN and Plex.
Then yesterday, I was fixing a client's mailserver, they had an accounting email that kept getting locked out. Well the mailserver was blocking password guessing attempts from china/india and amsterdam. That's when I went to install pfblockerng and it didn't work. I futzed around with it.
Then today I went on to my office firewall and installed pfblocker and it also did not add the link.However not a week or two ago, I had set up no issues pfblocker on 3 other firewalls.
They are all at 2.4.3 non p1 (except for a few) and I centrally manage them, so I have cron also installed. Also on most of the firewalls I have openvpn-client-export.
I just did it on another firewall:

@meeleikon said in pfBlockerNG not showing in menus, tried reinstalling:
pkg_edit.php
The pfblockerNG url is https://pfsense.localdomain/pfblockerng/pfblockerng_general.php
-
Check your config.xml, maybe something is breaking the installation.
-
I hope I sanitized this properly.... But no, nothing jumps out on the config.xml
-
@meeleikon You don't have a
<installedpackages>section
But you have some pfblockerNG cron jobs!
So something is broken in your config.xml
Can you install any package ? Like Cron or System_Patches ? -
All other packages work fine. Literally just pfblocker and on a few firewalls all different configs. Only similarity is cron and openvpn.
-
Those packages were probably installed before pfblockerNG.
Do you have <installedpackages> sections on your other firewalls?
Now if you try to install a package you didn't have installed, does the installation proceed ?
-
I was just able to install system patches and I can see it's shortcut under system and it's page opens.
My home firewall was also having an issue, I may try a reload and install pfblocker before cron and see what that does.
-
Maybe inspect Diagnostics / Backup & Restore / Config History to see what happened in the past with the config.
-
Just so you know I had cron installed and am using it before I installed the pfblocker package.
-
Run the following command:
grep -A30 "<menu" /conf/config.xmlAnd check to see if there is an empty <menu></menu> tag... I have seen this with another user, but am not sure if its a pfSense bug or a pfBlockerNG bug?
If there is an empty tag, you can edit /conf/config.xml and remove that empty tag. If you do that from pfSense > Edit File, that will reload the config after you press save and hopefully that fixes it.
