[SOLVED] Can't install any packages on 2.4.4-RELEASE-p2(arm64)

Just got my SG-1100 back from repairs and trying to install the OpenVPN Client Export package (pfSense-pkg-openvpn-client-export). Each time I try I get a failed message with no explanation why. I tried installing some other packages and get the same general "Failed" message. I don't see anything in the Syslogs, are there some logs specifically for package installations somewhere I could look at?

>>> Installing pfSense-pkg-openvpn-client-export...

Send the support crew a message at https://go.netgate.com and they can help you get moving again.

Since this is an SG-1100 they will also want to know the output of the following commands:

/usr/local/bin/ping-auth.sh

/usr/local/sbin/ping-auth -s

/usr/bin/openssl ec -in /etc/thoth/key.pem -noout -text

(at least the pub: block from that)

I miss-configured DNS settings and pfSense was not able to ping anything. Once I fixed the DNS setup I was able to install packages.

Serves me right for trying to do morning troubleshooting without coffee first...
