Packages Not Working on - 2.1-RC0 (i386) built on Sat May 25 07:43:38 EDT 2013

I upgraded this morning to the current release and after the upgrade my installed packages were gone.

When I try to re-install I get the following error

Beginning package installation for AutoConfigBackup .
Downloading package configuration file… done.
Saving updated package information... done.
Loading package configuration... done.

Here is the version Info:
2.1-RC0 (i386)
built on Sat May 25 07:43:38 EDT 2013
FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p8

Any Ideas?

Just to confirm - same error for me with AutoConfigBackup when it gets to parse_config_upload.php
I have bandwidthd and cron already installed fine. Just installed OpenVPN Client Export Utility successfully. So it seems to be specific to this file in AutoConfigBackup.

The problem is a missing file on the pfsense packages server. It is trying to pull this file from their server http://www.pfsense.com/packages/config/autoconfigbackup/parse_config_upload.php but it's not there so I guess we'll just have to wait for them to fix it

I just tested release 2.0.3 on a fresh install.. it fails on that release as well.

Also Avahi is broken as well

I actually started a thread about the avahi package not installing. It's the same problem with it trying to download non-existent additional files. http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,62725.0.html

As of this morning AutoConfigBackup installs fine now.

VMTools package for 2.1 is broken as well for since several weeks. When u click install, it will run some commands for like a sec or 2 and says the package is installed.. but the fact is nothing gets installed.
