https filter with https://http:/*
-
I run explicit with WPAD and no SSL intercept. I've never seen this problem. Try increasing the log level for squid and see if it give you any more data.
-
Looking into that now actually. FWIW this is in a tightly controlled RDS environment so I'm able to specify proxy settings via Group Policy without having to worry about WPAD "fun" yet. I'll report back if I find anything. Thanks for the insight

Have you tried using e2guardian?
much more stable as intercept
other option works fine when ssl mitm is set -
Hey! Same problem here. Anyone found the solution?
-
Also curious if there was a solution without wpad. I really don't want to host a wpad file using "http" admin on the pfsense box instead of "https". I hope transparent mode HTTPS & HTTP will work without WPAD files.

I found this and haven't been able to test yet.
SquidGuard is broken for https out of the box. You need configure Common ACL Target Rules List Default access [all] to Allow, save. Then click Apply in General settings tab.
My best bet is that Default access has no block page configured for some reason. If anyone knows how to get Default access to deny working please let me know.
Here is my working SquidGuard configuration step by step tested on pfSense 2.3.4-RELEASE-p1 (amd64):
Download any blacklist - shallalist. for example.
General Settings -> Blacklist options -> check to enable blacklist
Put in Blacklist URL: shalla list
Go to Blacklist tab.
Hit download (Black list url is already there)
Wait for it to finish downloading.
2. You need to configure your blacklist default to Allow state (The default state which is Deny all is what causes https://http/* error)Go to Common ACL Tab
Hit plus button on Target Rules List
Scroll down to Default access [all], set access to allow
Set other categories that you want to be blocked to deny.
Hit save at the bottom of the page.
Go to General settings Tab.
Click Apply at to Top of the page so your settings will be applied from Common ACL Tab.
Check if https sites load properly now.Remember to clear cache from before playing with pfsense from your browser or it will show you old state of web filtering.

@jonathanp123 I had that same thought. I discovered this "Unofficial WPAD package" that allows you to use WPAD without changing the protocol to HTTP. I haven't tested it yet because I'm spending my time to find a solution to the error in question, about "The following error was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL: https: // http / * [...]".
-
@jonathanp123 Well, I had already tested this solution but the error persists :/
-
@mguarienti I tested as well. I gave up on "transparent" mode. I ended up using a GPO in active directory to force the proxy settings on the client. I guess transparent mode doesn't support auth either. I want to try pf2ad so users will show up in the reporting.
-
@jonathanp123 I gave up on transparent mode too. i'm still running without the wpad for a moment. But when blocking a website with HTTPS pfSense tries to resolve a host 'https://http*', like the error. With HTTP it displays the correct page.
