      I am setting up a Hyper-V pfSense install.  The install goes fine and I have the the Interfaces setup.  The basic function is working fine, but when I try to go to the GUI, I get the login screen fine, and login then it just hangs on:

      Welcome to pfSense!
      One moment while the inital setup wizard starts. ….

      I reinstalled several times, always the same issue.  I have installed pfSense at least 50 times both virtually like this and on physical boxes but never had this issue.

      Thanks

      Ryan

          @SeanJones because that is a public forum and no ticket support system from Netgate. If you "NEED" an answer to this immediatly you should open a ticket with them or call them directly instead of waiting on an answer on a public forum where mostly private persons are posting.

          Also would be nice to get a bit more information to actually may be able to help instead of a "me too" on a more then 2y old post?

          Don't forget to upvote 👍 those who kindly offered their time and brainpower to help you!

          If you're interested, I'm available to discuss details of German-speaking paid support (for companies) if needed.

            Also : the wizard isn't needed.

            During initial setup, fill in System => general setup. At least LAN and WAN interfaces, and you're up.

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