      I just installed (rather reinstalled after uninstalling it a while back) NTopNG because this weekend I need to do some network sniffing of a machine I'm going to have here but it seems I can't get it to run.
      The errors in the system longs indicate the following....

      pid 40854 (ntopng), jid 0, uid 0: exited on signal 6 (core dumped) 
      
      /pkg_edit.php: The command '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ntopng.sh stop' returned exit code '1', the output was 'No matching processes were found No matching processes were found' 
      

      Any help is much appreciated!!

        Bump, as I still don't know what's causing the error.

          I have the same issue:

          Mar 25 13:52:41 pfSense kernel: pid 56191 (ntopng), jid 0, uid 0: exited on signal 10 (core dumped)
          Mar 25 13:53:00 pfSense php[65018]: servicewatchdog_cron.php: Service Watchdog detected service ntopng stopped. Restarting ntopng (ntopng Network Traffic Monitor)

          Ntop service is stopping for no reason and Watchdog (as configured) restart the service

            Starting ntopng service errors out with.

            Assertion failed: (prefix->bitlen <= patricia->maxbits), function ndpi_patricia_lookup, file third_party/src/ndpi_patricia.c, line 646.

                  Has anyone pinpointed what the cause is? I'm having similar problems. nothing useful in the logs. Just seems to run fine for an arbitrary amount of time then coredump. I'm starting to suspect if its a ram issue.

                  5.0.220113 [Community/Embedded build]

                  watching the logs with trace enabled I can't seem to see anything useful being logged right before a reported coredump..

                    @bstriker Nope, I've since removed it. I have yet to see a fix for it.

                        It is painful if more and more people are getting this issue. I'm affected, too.

                          @motivio Truthfully I have no idea what's going on. I uninstalled it for a time and then reinstalled it to see if it works and it does seem to be working.
                          Maybe go to NTopNG settings and uncheck "Keep ntopng settings, graphs and traffic data.", save, remove the package, reboot then try to re-install it because I have no idea why mine started to work again.

                            I have fixed the issue for myself by not using the package manager in pfsense, but rather installing directly on the pfsense shell. You can follow this documentation:

                            https://www.ntop.org/guides/ntopng/third_party_integrations/pfsense.html

                            My ntopng has been up for 76 days now

                                Here's some irony, it was working, now I'm getting a core dump again, joy!
                                Tried the how to, yea, I'll skip that.
