      I tried to install packages via GUI ! it throws a warning message : Current pkg repository has a new PHP major version. pfSense should be upgraded before installing any new package. we have checked and pf sense is already on the latest version and up to date ( 2.4.3-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) and then we have tried updating/upgrading packages via shell . Finally we got ended up with the below error and our GUI access is lost !

      PHP ERROR: Type: 64, File: /etc/inc/config.inc, Line: 51, Message: require_once(): Failed opening required 'Net/IPv6.php' (include_path='.:/etc/inc:/usr/local/www:/usr/local/captiveportal:/usr/local/pkg:/usr/local/www/classes:/usr/local/www/classes/Form:/usr/local/share/pear')

      can anyone help us with this ?

        @riya_94 2.4.3p1 is not latest version, so you cant install packages.
        Upgrade to 2.4.4p1 and try again

          Updating to latest :
          See forum "Installation and Upgrades" , you'll find examples how to proceed.
          If the GUI is ko, access the console. Option 13.

          See also https://www.netgate.com/blog/pfsense-2-4-4-release-p1-now-available.html and the very important https://www.netgate.com/blog/pfsense-2-4-4-release-now-available.html

          No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
          Edit : and where are the logs ??
