Stunnel Refuses To Start After Installing
- 
 Hello Everyone, Stunnel 5.37 refuses to start on pfSense 2.4.3-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) with this error in the log: Sep 9 00:31:03 stunnel LOG5[ui]: stunnel 5.44 on amd64-portbld-freebsd11.1 platform Sep 9 00:31:03 stunnel LOG5[ui]: Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.0.2m-freebsd 2 Nov 2017 Sep 9 00:31:03 stunnel LOG5[ui]: Threading:PTHREAD Sockets:POLL,IPv6 TLS:ENGINE,OCSP,PSK,SNI Sep 9 00:31:03 stunnel LOG5[ui]: Reading configuration from file /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf Sep 9 00:31:03 stunnel LOG5[ui]: UTF-8 byte order mark not detected Sep 9 00:31:03 stunnel LOG4[ui]: Insecure file permissions on /usr/local/etc/stunnel/56b3fec8a19e2.pem Sep 9 00:31:03 stunnel LOG5[ui]: Configuration successful Sep 9 00:32:17 check_reload_status Syncing firewall Sep 9 00:32:17 stunnel LOG5[main]: TerminatedFirst, 56b3fec8a19e2.pem does not exist in: /usr/local/etc/stunnel/ which is my webConfigurator default certificate but in the Stunnel menu I have selected the Certificate to be Default:  which I assumed would be the: /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem. Even the: /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf has the stunnel.pem set to be used: cert = /usr/local/etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem chroot = /var/tmp/stunnel setuid = stunnel setgid = stunnelI'm not sure why Stunnel still wants to use the webConfigurator default certificate and at this point it appears this is preventing Stunnel from starting or is it something else?

 Would anyone have an idea as to what is going on? I'm kind of stumped at this point.
