Hi

 

I've had an issue with a recently fine setup, that the server would boot, but I could not get the web gui to work at all.

 

I've checked the logs and seen there were issues with /boot /dev/sda and it needed fsck.

 

I copied my config to a new stick and removed all plugins except the latest webgui from git.

 

My server boots and I now have no errors in the log.

 

I still cannot get the guy though (even after removing the webgui plain from git)

 

Thanks for any help

How are you trying to access the GUI?

 

By connecting to http://ip-address in my browser.

 

Is that what you mean?

Do you get any response from the server when you use the PING utility on its IP address (192.168.1.100, I believe from the log)?

 

You're probably better off not using the new webGUI from git; it does not integrate well with V5.0+ at this time.

 

Another thing to try is to boot into safe-mode at the first splash screen.

Hi there, thanks for the info, I didn't realise the git web guy wasn't good to use at the moment; its been ok until now.

 

I can ping and logon to the server to get a shell and have tried the commands to restart the gui, with no success.

 

I've also tried booting into safe mode but the gui doesn't appear.

Have you tried from different machines and / or browsers? I've seen overprotective antivirus suites block access.

 

<Walks away in shame> <cough> A few days ago I had removed kaspersky mac and swapped to nod32 mac, user error had configured web protection, which seems to stop access.

 

Thanks for the pointer, to reminding me what I should have seen!

 

Cheers
