      This one :

      Stays empty since .... I guess since I installed 26.03 RC - env around mid mars 2026.

      Can some one who uses 26.03 and the captive portal confirm ?

      Probably related Redmine 16515 and commit.

      Not related (I guess), but strange looking : in the /etc/inc/captiveportal.inc and /usr/local/captiveportal/index.php, some calls to logger() have a fourth paramter "LOG_LOCAL4", other don't.

      No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.

        @Gertjan I'm experiencing the same problem. Since updating to version 26.03, the captive portal logs have stopped recording any entries.

        We checked the settings and didn't find anything unusual, so we submitted a support ticket, but we're still waiting for a response.

          There was an issue a while back where radius wasn't logging either, thought that was fixed in a patch in 25.11.1, and works in 26.03.. I would think its prob the same sort of issue. Let me see if can find the thread/redmine.

          edit: ok here is one of the redmines related to the radius logging issue

          edit2: here is the thread I had started

          https://forum.netgate.com/topic/200101/freeradius-logging

          This sure seems like the same sort of issue.

            I'm sending also everything to a remote log servers, and that works, portal stuff was included.

            I add/edited this (var/etc/syslog.d/pfSense.conf) part :

            907760b4-826c-4189-9c4e-387a2bedbffa-image.png

            added

            	$syslogconf .= "local4.*							{$g['varlog_path']}/portalauth.log\n";
            

            on line 458 in /etc/inc/syslog.inc and for me, since then :
