This is merged and looks good. It's in lcdproc package version: 0.10.6_10

Since my EZIO-100 is Serial based and I don't have a serial connection on my motherboard, I have a USB to Serial adapter, but I am unsure of how I would use this here, I plugged everything in, yet nothing on the screen, but I'm not sure if it has to do with setting the COM port to something specific.

@MXNPD try all available ports
anyway @stephenw10
it''s not available for my 2.5.0. only for 2.4.5
2.5.0 is still on LCDproc sysutils 0.10.8_4 for me -
Same here. The 2.5 package builders may not be running right now. Other priorities with 2.4.5 issues.
@MXNPD Check /dev for new devices when you attach it. Check the system log or dmesg for errors if you don't see a new device. I would expect it to be on /dev/cuaU0 though. Unless you have other USB com ports.

2.5.0 is still on LCDproc sysutils 0.10.8_4 for me2.5.0 is a dev firewall, why would you run something that is dev in protection (aka beta)??
Thanks,

I mean there are reasons you might want to do that, obviously not recommended though.
But this was just commenting that the package had not been built for 2.5 yet. I assume the patch was developed and tested on 2.5 first in this instance.

indeed @Smoothrunnings, all the patch and dev must be done on the dev version of pfsense aka 2.5.0, they then decide if and when to port it to the other version, i can't submit a patch directly to 2.4.5. that's why i was saying that, the patch was intended for 2.5.0 not for 2.4.5 but they decided to port and buld it for 2.4.5 before 2.5.0.
-
It's in the 2.5 dev source, the package builders just haven't run yet.
-
yes i understand, i was just explaining to him why i brought up version 2.5 in this discussion

Hi all,
I tried the updated package out I'm running 2.4.5 on a Smoothwall S4, however it seems unable to write the config file, as it never appears. I created the config file /usr/local/etc/LCDd.conf manually and was still unable to start the service. I then modified /usr/local/pkg/lcdproc.inc, line define('LCDPROC_RCFILE', '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/lcdproc.sh'); as the filesystem showed the rc file without .sh
The service then started however clearly the client is not communicating as I just have LCDPROC servrer Cli: 0 on the screen.
That's as far as I have got so far. I did previously have this working using the shellcmd method.
:| -
Did you save both the LCD drive screens tabs in the package? Both need to have at least one thing set before the package will start.
Steve
-
@stephenw10 yes, reinstalled the package and have done the same just to make sure I am not mad. so no mods this time, same effect. Ie lcdproc server is running but no client connected.
-
I have mine setup just like yourself image shows, but when I run the LCDproc service is fails. Any ideas?
My SmoothWall uses the CAR-3030.
Thanks,

check system log
try from console to run
/usr/local/sbin/LCDd -c /usr/local/etc/LCDd.conf -u nobodyif it starts the next step is to run
/usr/local/bin/php -f /usr/local/pkg/lcdproc_client.phpreport any error
-
Yeah, check the logs, what errors it it showing?
What exactly do you mean by the service fails?
Steve
-
I still have the issue too. GUI doesn't save config file, if I manually create the config file and ssh to start the services they work. Init name looks wrong to me one in PHP or Inc has .sh and my box didn't or might have been the other way round. Ages since I looked, but as the package was prepared for Dev but released on stable, their might be differences.
-
i can't reproduce it, if i delete /usr/local/etc/LCDd.conf on my 2.4.5-p1 it is created again if i press "save"
-
I will have another play maybe tonight. And check what happens on mine again. Because my memory is a bit vague
-
In the version 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 it's built in!!! :-)
