UNRAID 6.12.0-rc7 - no GUI after update! (check your "go" file!)

[MAM59]

Just update to rc7 and after the update, no gui came up anymore.

 

The reason is simple: in /boot/config/go file there used to be a line

 

/usr/local/sbin/emhttpd &

 

but in rc7 they have changed the path to

 

/usr/local/bin/emhttpd &

 

Edit the file and reboot (or start it from SSH)

I'm not seeing that.

root@BackupServer:~# whereis emhttp
emhttp: /usr/local/sbin/emhttp /usr/local/emhttp
root@BackupServer:~# 

and

#!/bin/bash
#
# Start the Management Utility.
#

/usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

The original go file does not call emhttpd directly, but refers to emhttp.

This was done to maintain compatability with older Unraid versions.

Yeah I now found "/usr/local/bin/emhttp" and "/usr/local/sbin/emhttpd" (the "inventor" should be punished, this is one of the most stupid ideas I have ever seen).

With "emhttp" i can stop the gui, but starting it is impossible.

Calling "emhttpd" directly works.
