      @jdillard:

      Were you able to get your history back? I store the database files in /var/db/vnstat and your db files from running manually are likely in /var/lib/vnstat/. It might be possible to copy/move them over.

      @MyKroFt:

      Is there a html link that can viewed outside of the pfsense ui like the old vnstat2 could?

      No there is not.

      ok, will leave the old vnstat2 page intact since I already have its dependencies installed and working so I can view that html page from outside my lan

      as far as the databases they where there in /var/lib/vnstat - I also exportdb and a daily status at 12am as I have had both db and back db in the past get corrupted for some reason.

      Thanks
      Myk

        Thanks, MyKroFt.

        I created a feedback thread in the snapshots board if anyone else wants to give feedback: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=114753.0

          How do I get the package? It doesn't show up under "Available Packages"  ???
          I'm currently on 2.3.1_5.

              Ah, I see. I tried the latest snapshot earlier tonight, but I lost the access to the package manager for some reason, so I went back to 2.3.1_5.

                  Thanks for the quick reply. I think I'll wait for the package to make its debut in a stable build. I'm too much of a novice to be messing around with dev builds  :P

                    MyKroFt, would you mind sharing your db sizes and when they were created (how long they have been collecting data)? I'm just curious about how big the files get with time for people running the embedded image.
