      I've had this issue with past versions as well: My LCD screen (CFA-735 running with CFA-635 code) will display normally for anywhere between a few hours to a few weeks and then randomly, it will stop and only display:
      ##LCDproc Server##
      clients: 0
      screens: 0

      I only have the interface traffic screen enabled.

      In the past I've just made a cron job to restart the LCDproc service every few hours but I'm sure there is a better way to fix this. What log file would show me why this is happening? Is anyone else experiencing this?

          I've had this issue since the beginning of me using pfSense & LCDProc (1-2 years).  I believe the issue is if one of the interfaces that the LCDProc client is monitoring, goes down or dissapears, then LDCProc client dies.

          I believe this is why my LCDProc client does not start at router start - the VPN interfaces aren't up by the time LCDProc starts.  A simple restart of the LDCProc service from the web console starts LCDProc fine.
