The pfblockerNG url is https://pfsense.localdomain/pfblockerng/pfblockerng_general.php

Check your config.xml, maybe something is breaking the installation.
-
I hope I sanitized this properly.... But no, nothing jumps out on the config.xml
-
@meeleikon You don't have a
<installedpackages>
section
But you have some pfblockerNG cron jobs!
So something is broken in your config.xml
Can you install any package ? Like Cron or System_Patches ? -
All other packages work fine. Literally just pfblocker and on a few firewalls all different configs. Only similarity is cron and openvpn.
-
Those packages were probably installed before pfblockerNG.
Do you have <installedpackages> sections on your other firewalls?
Now if you try to install a package you didn't have installed, does the installation proceed ?
-
I was just able to install system patches and I can see it's shortcut under system and it's page opens.
My home firewall was also having an issue, I may try a reload and install pfblocker before cron and see what that does.
-
Maybe inspect Diagnostics / Backup & Restore / Config History to see what happened in the past with the config.
-
Just so you know I had cron installed and am using it before I installed the pfblocker package.
-
Run the following command:
grep -A30 "<menu" /conf/config.xml
And check to see if there is an empty <menu></menu> tag... I have seen this with another user, but am not sure if its a pfSense bug or a pfBlockerNG bug?
If there is an empty tag, you can edit /conf/config.xml and remove that empty tag. If you do that from pfSense > Edit File, that will reload the config after you press save and hopefully that fixes it.
