GUI won't start and other issues... [Resolved]

Help please! A bit stuck here. 

 

Earlier today I updated unassigned devices and community apps plugins. I noticed I could load the community apps page earlier and rebooted and now I can't get the GUI to boot without safe mode no plugins.  I'm trying to run diagnostics but it is stuck at the process shown in the screen shot. I have SSH and GUI access, but not sure where/what to do now.


*The only other thing in recent days was a rebuild of a array drive. That completed and I ran check on it to bring the files back online for the share.  (XFS encrypted setup with 2 cache drives) 

Ideas?

Shutdown your server and take out the flash device. Do a file system check on the flash device on a Windows machine and let it repair any corruption.

I saw another post about dockers and macvlan, which I DID just change. I was able to change it back from safe GUI mode and reboot but no dice so far. I'll try the check.

No errors found. Here is what my terminal shows on the connected monitor. It is just stuck here. 
I have SSH, are there any logs I can grab manually?

Looks like a plugin problem, start your system in safe mode.

Yes I have done that and it loads fine. How would I tell which plugin is causing the issue and isolate what the problem might be?

My guess, the openSSH plugin. Otherwise you need trial and error by enabling the plugins one at the time.

For whomever this might help- my network config was eff'd up in some way. At one point I had a 4 port network card (bond) and later removed it. The entries were still present in /boot/config/network.cfg. It did not seem to cause an issue until today. I did notice on rebooting my server that it would attempt to load the adapters and fail. I never thought much of it...but it must have caused an issue today. Perhaps this was exasperated by me changing the network setting for Docker to macvlan. I understand this has caused issues where the GUI would not load. 

 

Either way- I deleted the network.cfg file after testing  & removing the recently updated plugins that may have caused an issue. (I added them back before deleting)  This resolved the issue for me. I did set macvlan BACK to ipvlan in GUI safe mode in my troubleshooting prior to the delete. Not sure if that helped our not. I changed that initially to troubleshoot issues with a docker communicating to another docker image.
