Cannot login to pfsense
-
@gertjan
Thank you very much for your reply. Clicking "I understand ….. " was what I always did and would take me to enter my username and password on pfsense (xg-7100). But today it would not allow me to. It stuck on that page as I mentioned after trying to add the fourth Internet connection to my pfsense. -

Use a browser that works. Firefox, for example, would do the job. It will warn, and you can override.

I've tried your suggestion and still no success. I even tried to restore from another backup config that pfsense automatically did backup on 22/1/21 and rebooted pfsense with no success. My last resort would be to reset to factory defaults but I will probably do this on week-ends in the evening when no one is using the network. But since I can still access pfsense from putty is there another way to undo the changes I did on the 25/1/21 ? -
What certificate error is firefox showing? Why can you not just accept it and connect?
You can roll-back changes from the console menu if required. Abount the only thing you could have done to generate that error is set the webgui to use a different certificate. Perhaps one that is wholly unsuitable for a webserver so it cannot be accepted.

Hi SteveAppreciate your response.
When I clicked " I understand the risk ….." it just would not go any further .. I was on stuck on that page.
I would appreciate if you can show me how to roll back changes via ssh

Looks like you have some security software helpfully blocking your access. That's not Firefox showing that.

Your problem is here :

You're right Steve. I loaded Manjaro
in VirtualBox and successfully login to pfsense GUI. Glad I'm back.Back to my physical machine I temporary disabled Kaspersky security network and login successfully.
One thing I did not understand why this did not happen before ? I installed Kaspersky several months ago and no issues login to pfsense. This just happened yesterday.
Thank you very much time to assist. Appreciate

Kaspersky update I would guess. Seems broken though if you can't agree to accept the self-signed cert and continue.

Thank you very much that spotted the problem and my problem is now solved.I cannot thank you enough for your time to look into my issue.
I just have to find why this did not happened before while kaspersky was installed

I have now enabled Kaspersky Security Network and it seemed to have no issue login to pfsense
Thanks again
