Snort Install Failed - 2.3.2-RELEASE (amd64)
-
Hello all…
I have stopped using two different brands of enterprise network equipment and opted to begin using pfSense instead. What a great decision!
I have installed the newest version of pfSense which at the time of this post is 2.3.2-RELEASE (amd64). I was attempting to install snort from the System | Package Manager menu and I received the following error message:
Installing pfSense-pkg-snort...
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.
New version of pkg detected; it needs to be installed first.
The following 1 package(s) will be affected (of 0 checked):Installed packages to be UPGRADED:
pkg: 1.8.7 -> 1.8.7_1 [pfSense]Number of packages to be upgraded: 1
2 MiB to be downloaded.
pkg: https://pkg.pfsense.org/pfSense_v2_3_2_amd64-pfSense_v2_3_2/All/pkg-1.8.7_1.txz: Not Found
FailedAnyone have any ideas how I can resolve this issue and install snort? Any suggestions would be helpful.
