      I had been experimenting with running a filebeat and didn't realize the surricata file logs filled up the disk. I started the update, and then on reboot saw the disk was full and update had failed. I cleaned up the disk and rebooted, but says I'm on 2.4.5 when I try to update. However everywhere I look, I see 2.4.4-RELEASE, built on Wed May 15 18:53:44 EDT 2019 though FreeBSD 11.3-STABLE. Any way to force the upgrade again? I can't figure out where the 2.4.5 version is coming from in the updater for my current version. Thanks!

        If your disk space was full the best thing to do is back up your configuration, re-install, and restore the configuration.

        There is no way to know what files could not write correctly and you might be chasing phantoms for months otherwise.

          @Derelict Thank you for the quick response, I was afraid of that. I have an older backup, but UI backup is now throwing php errors. I assume I can pull the config.xml file off from /conf ? Thanks!

            Yes, you should be able to pull the configuration from /cf/conf/config.xml.

            You probably want to do something like this too:

            cd /cf/conf/backup ; tar cvf /tmp/config-backups.tar .

            Then scp, or download /tmp//tmp/config-backups.tar off somewhere safe. That will be a tarball of the last 100 or so configurations (a new one taken at each config change).

            You should be able to find something current out of that.
