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

          @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?

          I have posted my logs previously.

            @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.

                                      Ok here's my feedback about using Lightsquid to get logs on e2guardian, after 2 days it just stop logging e2guardian. i dunno what happened lol

                                      edit: seems like when i turn off the transparent proxy on squid proxy server, lightsquid doesn't work.

                                      gonna monitor it again for a few days if it'll stop logging.

                                      edit: good, its now running fine. earlier was kinda slow or something

                                        attached is the error log.

                                        0_1542682201493_1541384673350-error-resized.png

                                        I have provided that screenshot, months before.

                                        System resource usage is fine, load average 0.14, 0.10, 0.04, cpu & swap usage is 0%, memorage usage is 28%.

                                        I am able to ssh to my box.

                                        Like I said, the content scanner (clamdscan) was perfectly running before the rotate log fix was created and updated to the package.

                                        Respectfully, I think it does not matter if the content scanner is a feature for you or for Marcelloc but rather for the use of the community since it is a feature placed in the package. Such content scanner should have been already removed if it is that useless.

                                        What I am saying is the content scanner was broken since their was a fix on rotate log. Perhaps, the developers who modified the package can differential what changes they have done before and after the rotate log fix and made changes accordingly.

                                          OK, those errors look config related. I'll have a chat with @marcelloc and then we'll see if we can send out another patch for it. Comparing the last build to your current, there doesn't seem to be any specific changes that would effect the content scanner.
