Seems to me like this should never be possible from a config upload..
Is it possible for either of you to post the config file that causes
this to happen? (preferebly to the redmine bugtracker)
-Make sure to strip change with a texteditor all private information
like passwords / ip's / certificate-private-keys and other stuff you
dont want public, and doublecheck that nothing like that is left..
-Try again if the crash still happens with the modified file, and post
it to the list with the exact configuration options of the virtual machine.
Or another option to maybe find the cause of the trouble would be to not
restore the whole configuration file at once, but only 'parts' of it.
Like only the interface configuration for example. To try and eliminate
possible problem parts of the the config file in question..
Any packages installed/configured? Not that packages in a config file
should make this happen, but still interesting to know and eliminate
possible causes..

/me raises his hand
I've just been trying to replicate a production config in a VirtualBox
VM (vbox 4.3.6, OSX 10.9.1).
I'm using KVM on Debian Linux (Wheezy/7).
I can install pfsense fine, and manually set up a LAN IP address on
vboxnet0 so that I can get into the web and use Diagnostics >
Backup/Restore to upload an existing XML config. But then the VM refuses
to boot properly. It only gets as far as:
F1 pfSense
F6 PXE
Boot: F1
|
and then hangs at that point (vertical bar, not spinning). This is
repeatable if I reinstall and re-restore the same XML config.
I was able to workaround the problem by reinstalling, using scp to copy
/cf/conf/config.xml directly from another machine, and then reboot.
Same bug and same workaround here.
Any thoughts welcome :-)
Sorry, no solution, only a "you're not alone".
