      I am trying to install OpenVPN-client-export and other packages. But, it always shows me this error:

      Installing pfSense-pkg-openvpn-client-export...
      Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue...
      pfSense-core repository is up to date.
      Updating pfSense repository catalogue...
      pfSense repository is up to date.
      All repositories are up to date.
      Checking integrity...Child process pid=84156 terminated abnormally: Bus error
      Failed

      It is the same with other packages.
      I am using Pfsense 2.5.1 in a Virtualbox, with 1 CPU, 4GBs of RAM, and 5GB of storage. What do you guys think causes it?

        Hardware ... of virtual hardware error.

        Probably not related, but '5 GB" disk space seems really small to me.

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

          5GB should be more than enough for a a default install with small packages, like the OpenVPN exporter.
          That's an odd error. Try installing it from the command line:
          pkg install pfSense-pkg-openvpn-client-export
          You should see more error output there.

            @stephenw10 Yes, I think 5GB is already enough. I will try your solution, but I created a new machine in VirtualBox and freshly installed Pfsense there, and it works perfectly. All specs are the same, which is weird.
