      @bmeeks said in Strange log entry after update:

      Use your favorite text editor for Unix and edit the following file at the lines shown. Making a backup copy of the file prior to editing is recommended!
      /usr/local/pkg/snort/snort_check_for_rule_updates/php

      Done and confirm it works as expected!

      Thank you!

        Pull Requests have been submitted to correct this issue in both the DEVEL and RELENG_2_6_0 branches of pfSense. I attempted to make the code a little more tolerant of any future path name changes in the Snort Rules update archive file. Look for a Snort package update to version 4.1.5_3 in the near future. The requests are here:

        https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/1161
        https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/1162

        In the meantime, if you hit this bug before the package update is posted, the quick fix is shown in an earlier post of mine above.

        UPDATE: the pull requests listed above have been merged into their respective pfSense branches.
