0%
Description
Hello,
i can't use the historical feature. when i try to load historical data after setting interface and time interval i see this error message on the log
ntopng: [Lua.cpp:72] ERROR: ntop_find_interface : expected string, got number
i'm using 2.2-RC x64 release with Intel interfaces.
Has someone the same issue?
thank you for support

1/ This is an upstream issue.
2/ Has no influence here on functionality. Dunno what time interval you have selected. Even one day takes damn ages to load the files. Meanwhile, you'll see "Load in process..." in the bottom right corner of the screen, with spinning wheels, growing counters and your HDD will be spinning like like mad. If anything gets successfully loaded, once you select the "Overview" tab, two more tabs should appear ("Packets" and "Protocols"). Works here. This could take minutes, tens of minutes, or hours, or forever depending on what interval you selected.
3/ Which is probably the reason this badly performing "historical interface" feature is dead and abandoned upstream pending rework, see http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ntop/misc/37506#37506
Really nothing to do here for pfSense, move on.
