      Thank you pfsensation, this information is very helpful. I will go over my config again and let you know. I use IP authentication.

      No problem, check the configuration again. See if E2 Guardian can see the traffic on the real time log and let us know if it works. :)

        @marcelloc ,

        do you have time to fix the content scanner that was broken after they have fix for the rotate log ?

        I think Marcello was talking to you earlier on his last post. He said to try the latest version, which I think you're already on?

        Have you tried a reinstall?

        Yes I am already on the latest E2G version as per package installation and pfsense 2.4.4 version. I also tried E2G package reinstallation.

          Are you getting any errors on the logs?

            Hello Marcello.
            I did try to "config sync" at eguardian, but i am seeing error abiut "ssl" and stopping machines running at eguardian that get config backup.
            No problem when i trying server but all other machines send error about "eguardian 69897 certprivatekeypath is required when ssl is enabled"
            This problem has continues when i editing and installing to other machines as same way.
            Is there any reason about this problem?

              @susamlicubuk, are you syncing the private key created on first server?

                edit the normal certificate I copied and pasted into the certificate of other servers
                still gives error
                Is there another way?

                    @pfsensation Thanks for reply on the regex issue. That is a point I had not thought of, on regex using a lot of cpu power. However some sites will load fine and the regex will do fine. But whenever I go to google It will crash E2guardian immediately. I watched the cpu indicator at that point and it never even seemed to kickin much before crash. There must be something in expression that causes it. Here is a sample of what I was using.
                    "<a(?:(?!.</a>).).?facebook.com.*?</a>"->"-"
                    Don't know if you can see anything out of order or not.
                    Thanks

                      I haven't used regex myself in a while, but why not use the site list ACL to block Facebook instead? It's a much more efficient way of doing it.

                      I'll have to test out regex further, just don't have much spare time at the moment. :/

                          @sei-pine I have a blog post about Sarg to report E2guardian activities. Check the following link.

                          https://lifeoverlinux.com/how-to-configure-sarg-to-use-with-e2guardian/

                          For the Lightsquid, it's easy to setup. You can find how to by searching "e2guardian lightsquid" on the forum.

                            i already tried to do the troubleshoot guide on the page you provided.

                            edit:

                            this seems to be the problem, any idea on how to fix it ?

                              Check log format in e2g "Report and log" configuration, it must be in "squid format"

                                This should fix the error.

                                    Manually clear your access.log visit some sites then try again. Sarg is complaining of an incorrect date and a loop.

                                    Glad to hear you got lightsquid working though, it's simple and it gets the job done.

                                        @marcelloc, don't we have update fix for the content scanner ?

                                        since the update they made for the rotate log fix, the content scanner is no longer working. it makes the pfsense gui hang and I need to restore previous config to make it work.

                                          He's just very busy with work however he is slowly updating it whenever possible, last update was pretty recent.

                                            Are you able to provide any further info? Are you seeing any errors on logs? What's the resource usage like? Are you able to SSH into your box?

                                            Like I said earlier, content scanner is not a feature me or Marcelloc really use but let's try to find out why it crashes if possible.
