Hi,

 

My Unraid server was working great, but after the most recent update, it freezes on a regular basis. The symptoms are somewhat consistent - the Unraid web gui gives a 502 Bad Gateway, the docker containers start to freeze up over a period of hours-days (within a day or two).

 

When I do a hard reboot, the docker containers work for a day or so, but the GUI doesn't work at all. I can, however, SSH into the server. 

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

Switching to ipvlan should fix it (Settings -> Docker Settings -> Docker custom network type -> ipvlan (advanced view must be enabled, top right)), you should also update to latest stable.

But how do I do this when the web Gui isn’t working?

Missed that the GUI wasn't working after a reboot, nothing obvious in the log, can you access using the IP (192.168.2.101)? also try booting in safe mode.

I traced the GUI issue to something broken with the SSL configuration - perhaps related to the bug fixed with the latest update ("WebGui doesn't load under certain circumstances"). I was able to disable the SSL by editing the Nginx conf files, after which I was able to log in via Http. 

 

Once I logged in to the interface, all I had to do was update to the latest update, reboot, and the problems appear to have gone away. 

 

This update process has taught me never to update Unraid until at least 30-60 days post the release of an update. I jumped on the update when it was available - if I had waited for the bug-fix update, I would have been OK.
