      We just upgraded from 2.5.0 to 2.5.2, and the Zabbix agent package stopped working.

      The first thing I tried was a re-install of the the pfSense-pkg-zabbix-agent4/zabbix4-agent package, but I ran into the same issue.

      I also tried installing the older zabbix3-agent but got the exact same error.

      Other packages are installing fine, so I don't know what is wrong.
      Does anybody have any suggestions? I need to make sure this VM is monitored.

      Here is the install log:
