You don't really need to "start fresh". The only configuration

/usr/local/pf/conf and the network interfaces configurations.

If you don't mind, I'd like a copy of your 
/usr/local/pf/logs/packetfence.log file to see what happened in the web 
configurator that can affect the network interfaces configuration.
