Can you post the error message or a screenshot?

- Can you check the file owners and access rights in conf/ with:
ls -l /usr/local/pf/conf/

- Also can you post relevant portions of /usr/local/pf/logs/admin_debug_log and /usr/local/pf/logs/admin_error_log.

Thanks,

I added as requested. Thx for the quick response. In the file file_check is the listing off the directory.

TIA

You don't seem to be in VLAN isolation mode. What is your mode under Config -> Network -> network.mode?

When I look overthere it says "ARP" but when I change it, it doesn't change anything for the problem. Still no switches and network settings in Gui.

When you change the mode you need to restart packetfence. Also the admin interface hidden menus only changes when you log out / log in. (this in itself is a known problem)

Logout of the admin interface. Restart packetfence on the command line as root: service packetfence restart

and login back in

Ok, this solved partialy the problem. The hidden switches menu is now on top, but the networks menu is still not back. Thanks so far.

Are you sure you need access to the Networks tabs?

This is used for routed VLANs, an undocumented feature that has not been properly integrated yet.

You need that in the case where the PacketFence server doesn't have direct access to the VLANs it needs to integrate with. Using networks.conf allows for manual addition and removal of the network routes in the OS.

If you are unsure then you don't need it.

If you do, because of a bug (that i'll report later) the tab is not visible from the web ui. Edit /usr/local/pf/conf/networks.conf manually.

Since:
- the switch tab is now accessible
- the network tab will be accessible in v1.9.1 (see 0000928), I close this ticket
