      Bill you're a genius, thank you. Snort is up and running again.

      Now where is @Doktornotor to complain about that package manager….......

        Got it. Thanks. It works again.

        Suggestion: Unless this is a 1 in a million issue or unless future updates will look for this problem and fix it quietly, define the problem and solution in a sticky somewhere. This will make it less disruptive for everyone.

        Edit: Could this have caused it?  My Admin profile is disabled since I consider it to be a security problem. Another profile has Admin duties. I had to enable Admin to perform the SSH folder deletion. Is it possible that this problem occurred because I updated Snort while not using the pfSense defined Admin profile?

          I use the default admin profile and had the same issue so that's not likely the problem.
