      @hugoeyng Hypervisor, VirtualBox, VMware? Anything that you can spin up a machine you can load PfSense on to test without using your real equipment. They create a virtualized machine that you can install software on to test with. Windows 10-11 pro the software under features enable Hypervisor-V, Virtual box is free it's made by Oracle, VMware costs money. I recommend just using Hyper-V in Windows, it's really simple to use create a blank Virtual machine and load the software like you would on a normal machine it runs in a virtualized environment and you can test save snapshots test again and if you find something that works and doesn't have issues, repeat it with the real hardware. If you have access to a VM you can test it with a clean install, the reason is maybe your configuration is bonked up. You can test it outside the machine this way. I like virtual box too I use to use it with Palm Pre

          I think that is insane to reinstall pfSense as a solution to a package of pfSense to work.

          Yeah, that really should never be required. It looks like some part of the install/deinstall script is failing there. Since that doesn't happen for most people it's probably something in the config that already exists.

            @stephenw10 What config would you bet on, since I've already uninstalled and reinstalled both Squid and SquidGuard.

            In my point of view, the problem is that the squidguard.conf comes with the installation of SquiGuard and it is this "bugged" squidguard.conf that prevents the correct installation of the package.

            Once the installation failed, changing the squidguard.conf doesn't solve it anymore, even applying the proposed patch.

            The first question to fix is ​​making SquidGuard appear in the menu and in the list of services, even stopped (red 'x' icon). If that happens, I guess the patch could solve the initial bug, about what this post discusses.

            I love pfSense!

              @stephenw10 I agree, a blank install and no user config should fix it. After apply the patches and once that is done put the config back on.

                The package install script is hitting some php error and failing before it has added the require menu and service items into the main pfSense config.
                Usually when I've seen that it's because the system has been upgraded and the php versions mismatch. But as I understand it that shouldn't be the case here?

                  @stephenw10 Remember this was the same issue I had and it turned out I had to resave the reverse proxy to get it to stop. With that being said I thought maybe there is a different configuration item bonked up with his settings that is missing.

                    That issue prevented you making a config change in Squid but it did not prevent installing/uninstalling AFAIK.

                      I tried to manually insert the SquidGuard in the Menu Options.

                      First I made a backup of the current installed pfSense .

                      Then, I took a old backup XML file where the SquidGuard was present in the menu, copied the lines that referred toSG to the recent XML and then I restored it.

                      Did not work. Raised an error and I did not try again.

                      I love pfSense!

                        If you remove your squidguard config from the config file and then try to reinstall squidguard does it succeed?

                            Hmm, so it throws those same errors even with no squidguard config present?

                            And that's after uninstalling and reinstalling the pkg?

                              @stephenw10 Yes. A clean installation of squidGuard will fail showing the same errors.

                                Is that with those patches applied still?

                                I can't replicate this. It installs fine in 23.01 on a test box here:

                                o You can find the configuration files for this package in the
                                       directory /usr/local/etc/squid.
                                
                                     o The default cache directory is /var/squid/cache/.
                                       The default log directory is /var/log/squid/.
                                
                                       Note:
                                       You must initialize new cache directories before you can start
                                       squid.  Do this by running "squid -z" as 'root' or 'squid'.
                                       If your cache directories are already initialized (e.g. after an
                                       upgrade of squid) you do not need to initialize them again.
                                
                                     o When using DiskD storage scheme remember to read documentation:
                                         http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/DiskDaemon
                                       and alter your kern.ipc defaults in /boot/loader.conf. DiskD will not
                                       work reliably without this. Last recomendations were:

                                     o The default configuration will deny everyone but the local host and
                                       local networks as defined in RFC 1918 for IPv4 and RFCs 4193 and
                                       4291 for IPv6 access to the proxy service.  Edit the "http_access
                                       allow/deny" directives in /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf
                                       to suit your needs.
                                
                                     o If AUTH_SQL option is set, please, don't forget to install one of
                                       following perl modules depending on database you like:

                                     To enable Squid, set squid_enable=yes in either
                                     /etc/rc.conf, /etc/rc.conf.local or /etc/rc.conf.d/squid

                                     If you just updated your Squid installation from an earlier version,
                                     make sure to check your Squid configuration against the 3.4 default
                                     configuration file /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf.sample.
                                
                                     /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf.documented is a fully annotated

                                     Additionally, you should check your configuration by calling
                                     'squid -f /path/to/squid.conf -k parse' before starting Squid.

                                  @stephenw10 @stephenw10 I upgraded from 22.05 to 23.01.

                                  22.05 was working fine.

                                  After upgrading Squid was running e squidGuard was not.

                                  SquidGuard was appearing in "installed packages" but not in the menu options and neither in the services runnig, and a notification about the mentioned error started to be shown.

                                  I applied the patch and the error has gone. But squidGuard did no appear in the menu options and neither in services running.

                                  I removed squidGuard package and reinstalled. The error was back and squidGuard appears in the installed packages but not in the menu options and neither in services running.

                                  Then I applied the patch and the error has gone, but squidGuard did not appears in the menu options and neither in the services running.

                                  And so on, as many times as I can uninstall and reinstall.

                                  The way I can see to solve this issue is the suidguard.conf to be corrected in the installion package.

                                  The error in the squidguard.conf occurs because a ")" is not present in a line of the code.

                                  I love pfSense!

                                    @hugoeyng said in 23.01 Squid issue:

                                    The error in the squidguard.conf occurs because a ")" is not present in a line of the code.

                                    I'm not sure where you're seeing that. It looks like the errors you're seeing are in the squidguard pkg install script. It fails before it's able to add the menu and service items.
                                    It doesn't fail on a clean install to 23.01 that never had squidguard so it pretty much has to be something in your existing config that's tripping it up. To be clear this is a bug. It should handle existing squidguard config.

                                    If you remove the existing squidguard entris fromn your config file it will probably install fine.

                                    What squidguard values do you have in the config? My test box basic config does not hit this:

                                    		<squidguardgeneral>
                                    			<config>
                                    				<squidguard_enable>on</squidguard_enable>

                                        That's the standard package xml. What matters is the squidguard config lines inside the main pfSense config (/cf/conf/config.xml).
                                        The install script is choking on something there when it tries to create the required tags. Usually when we see those php errors it's because there is something missing from the config that it assumed was there or something already present that it assumed was not. The older version of php was much more forgiving.
