      Tried to put both in lcdproc.xml and config.xml  the string lcdproc.php (that should have been enough right?) and nada.
      Still shows as stopped.

      Current network "hardware" :
      Running 2.2RC in Virtualbox 4.2.16.

      Retired:
      ALIX2C2 , 4 gigabyte disk cf card running 2.0 (official release).

        You re-installed lcdproc with the changed file?

          No, but I ran some other tests which I think mean it doesn't just check ps output.
          I wrote a shellscript that just sleeps for a while and called it LCDd.
          Obviously if I do ps | grep LCDd it returns a non empty result.
          Yet the service appears to be stopped while the script is running.
          Does it have to literally match the executable string or can I just use a part of it?
          So does it have to be "/usr/local/bin/php -f /usr/local/pkg/lcdproc_client.php"  as appears in lcdproc.inc where the client is launched?

            Hmm, more complex than I thought then. Perhaps it requires the correct rc file, clearly it needs that for the service restart button onn the Status: Services: page. I don't know, I'm just guessing now. ::)
            You should probably ask this as a new question in the packages section.

              Would it be possible to add 38400 bps as an option for the port speed?
              Take a look at: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=90569.msg515874#msg515874 for the changes I had to make to get nMedia lcd working.

              Thanks,
              Ali

                For my 64 bit 2.2.2 and the latest lcdproc I have to modify the lcdproc.inc file where is says "localhost' to "127.0.0.1" for mine to start up.  I fixed this package in past but no time to fix this time around.  I need to figure github out more.

                file for my system is in  /usr/local/pkg

                need file already fixed I can upload mine

                      No problem. Docknotor if I spelled right also got the one going also with same patch I did. So he deserves some of thanks also :)

                        I'm actually seriously confused how the patch helps. The define is not used anywhere.

                          The binding to localhost issue?

                          Ah, you mean LCDPROC_HOST is not used?

                              It was told me in Github that it does not bind right.

                              Merged, thanks! The reason that ends up failing is lcdproc doesn't bind to IPv6, and localhost will return as ::1 in that case.

                                  If they do not have support for it in 2.3 I don't think I want to upgrade then.. But I have been keeping it going for bit now. Maybe I will be able to do something when 2.3 comes out.

                                        I'm itching to try out 2.3, but LCDproc is my favorite package.  I think I'll wait a bit too see what happens.

                                            Ill offer you an Amazon gift card if that works as a bribe.    ;D

                                            Having the package isn't a deal breaker for me but I did like it being there.
