Package downloader not working

[mroushdy]

Hello,
I need to run PFsense as only a proxy server, but the package manager in this version "pfSense-CE-2.4.4-RELEASE-p3-amd64.iso" seems to broken I don't know why, so, is there any workaround to deploy "squid" and "Squidguard" on it?

Thanks,

That should work fine. How is it failing? What error do you see?

Does the box have internet connectivity otherwise? Can it ping pfsense.org from Diag > Ping?

HI, I don't recall the error now, but when I click on the "Available Packages" tab, I get an error highlighted in red, and yes I can ping everything successfully. Is there any know bugs in that release.

[stephenw10]

Nope. That is the current release version.

We'd need to see the error to advise further.

You might also try running at the command line pkg update
That may also throw errors but with more verbose output.
