Netgate pfSense plus 21.02.2-RELASE

[caspertl]

Hi there
I have some trouble with your API.
Im trying to install it on a XG-1537-HA.
Version: Netgate pfSense plus 21.02.2-RELASE.

The instllation is going okay everything is good at first glance.
But when i go to Status/system logs/system/general i get this error: Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function has_hw_watchdog() in /usr/local/www/status_logs_common.inc:118 Stack trace: #0 /usr/local/www/status_logs.php(130): tab_array_logs_common() #1 {main} thrown in /usr/local/www/status_logs_common.inc on line 118 PHP ERROR: Type: 1, File: /usr/local/www/status_logs_common.inc, Line: 118, Message: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function has_hw_watchdog() in /usr/local/www/status_logs_common.inc:118 Stack trace: #0 /usr/local/www/status_logs.php(130): tab_array_logs_common() #1 {main} thrown.
If i reboot the device i dont get a WAN ip adress either.

I have tried to install 2 versions of the API same result.
pkg add https://github.com/jaredhendrickson13/pfsense-api/releases/latest/download/pfSense-2.5-pkg-API.txz && /etc/rc.restart_webgui
pkg add https://github.com/jaredhendrickson13/pfsense-api/releases/latest/download/pfSense-2.6-pkg-API.txz && /etc/rc.restart_webgui

here is the crashreport:

Hey!

Unfortunately, this API has been developed for pfSense CE and will not work on pfSense Plus. There are small fundamental differences between pfSense CE and pfSense Plus that prevent the package from working correctly. Since pfSense Plus is closed source and currently only runs on proprietary equipment, I don't have the ability to develop, maintain or test the package on pfSense Plus at this time.

Thanks!

@caspertl How did you recover your pfsense after installing this API on the system? Removing it didn't fix the error!

@teridon
We were in the early stages of implementing this so we ended up restoring to factory.. Instead of the API we use SSH to run our own PHP-scripts located on the server to get/update/create/delete aliases and adresses. I can share these scripts with you if you need.

@caspertl Thanks, but I found a fix. It seems that php-fpm was caching something, because restarting it (via the script /etc/rc.php-fpm_restart ) restored the Web UI functions.

I just ran into this issue and thankfully @teridon comment helped.

I really think the home page should have a clear warning about this package not being compatible with pfsense plus.
