Packet Capture with pfsync protocol - Warning: filesize(): stat failed for /root/packetcapture.cap

Hi,

Capturing sync interface with pfsync protocol i get the error:

Warning: filesize(): stat failed for /root/packetcapture.cap in /usr/local/www/diag_packet_capture.php on line 588

Other protocols seems working fine.

I'm seeing that here as well. It also fails on 2.4.4-p3 just silently -- it never captures anything because the tcpdump syntax is invalid.

I'm working on a fix: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/10183

Hi,

In the version of pfSense below, With the combination Address family: IPv4 and ARP protocol i have the same warning as above. Sorry i do not have tested that combination.

The protocol pfsync is OK with the IPV4 or any (earlierversion with ipv4 fails).

That's an invalid selection, though input validation isn't checking for it and it should. It rejects IPv6 and ARP but not IPv4 and ARP. (ARP is neither, technically)

I did also find a way to eliminate that PHP error, though.
