      Hi Guys,

      Recently started using Pfsense and luving it so far. I installed Squid and LightSquid and then had some problem with the config. I decided to remove the two packages but the GUI had some errors and took a few trys before the package was removed. But after removal i could still see squid running on the system so i stopped it but the squid binary+config+logs are still on the system.

      Is this a bug ? I am using 2.0.1-Release. How can get rid of the squid so that i can install it fresh.
      Thanks

        What browser are you using?

        Did you tried firefox or chrome?

          I used firefox but can't remember if it was firefox or IE when i tried to uninstall the package. Can you tell me how to remove the squid from command line ? What binaries+config+logs and anyother entries in the system ?

          Thanks

            I think the easiest way is(using firefox) install the package again and remove.

              Try this first and if it does not work go to command line and type:

              pkg_info
              

              You will find squid-2.xyz installed
              delete it and it dependencies with:

              pkg_delete -r squid-2.xyz
              

              But the correct way is to install and uninstall it using the GUI.
