        Looks like it's missing some dependencies… I'll look into it.

              Hi
              I had the same problem. Reinstalled the package, got the same error as original poster when I tried to start the service manually.
              Then I upgraded from Dec 6 to latest (Dec 14) and then tried to install the package again.

              2.0-BETA4 (i386)
              built on Tue Dec 14 21:49:41 EST 2010

                The url's that it is trying to download from are wrong:

                http://files.pfsense.org/packages/8/All/python26-2.6.5.tbz
                should be:
                http://files.pfsense.org/packages/8/All/python26-2.6.5_1.tbz

                http://ftp2.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.1-RELEASE/Latest/python26-2.6.5.tbz
                should be:
                http://ftp2.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/python26.tbz

                The same for this one.
                  icu-3.8.1_3
                  Trying to download http://files.pfsense.org/packages/8/All/icu-3.8.1_3.tbz …  could not download from there or http://ftp2.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.1-RELEASE/Latest/icu-3.8.1_3.tbz.
                of open-vm-tools-nox11-313025_1 failed!

                http://files.pfsense.org/packages/8/All/icu-3.8.1_3.tbz does not exist on server.
                http://ftp2.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.1-RELEASE/Latest/icu-3.8.1_3.tbz does not exist on server.

                Solved this by installing manually:

                • pkg_add -r python
                • pkg_add -r icu

                  The package wasn't being recompiled correctly during the nightly builds and missed some dependencies again. I've got it recompiling now, might be fixed soon.
