Top Header LOG Link Opens Window, But Does Not Show Anything


Recommended Posts

Hi...

 

Current version 6.1.3 - (Moved to it yesterday...so far so great.)

 

Option at the top right - LOG will open a window but the window never fills in.  It just is "Waiting for Server"

 

OS - Mac - Chrome Browser.

 

I can get to the System Log under TOOLS.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks

Any antivirus or adblocker software running? If so then exclude the GUI pages.

 

Other windows open just fine.  So does this one, it just never fills anything into the box.

 

It is trying to open...

I had the same thing happen last week. Nothing was filled based on the dashboard. I restarted unRAID and the computer I was using and then I could open the log window and see the log... Not sure why but it has been working fine since then  ???

 

Done both.  Even tried another browser just for kicks.  The open window just waits for the server to send data that is never sent.  I can open other windows and the info shows in the windows.  I can also go to the tools area and see the log without issue.

Telnet into your server and do:

ping server

 

What does it show?

 

 

root@Server:~# ping server

Nothing seems wrong...

 

Can you open a new browser tab and copy & paste //server/logging.htm?title=Log%20Information&cmd=/webGui/scripts/tail_log&arg1=syslog directly to see if data is retrieved.

 

Good thought...

Interesting that does not show up in the window that opens but just waits.

This means the file "logging.htm" is not present in your system. Can you verify:

You would surely think so...But not the case...

Interesting enough that if I open a browser and goto....

 

http: //server/logging.htm?title=Log%20Information&cmd=/webGui/scripts/tail_log&arg1=syslog

 

...nothing opens in the page.

 

If I just load...

 

http://server/logging.htm

 

...I get a DONE button.

 

It is NOT able to open a TAIL it seems.  This is very pondering it does not work.

 

Can you check if the tail_log script has execution rights

Can you try getting a log on another computer?  I have the same issue on one of my PC's (has been that way since V5 with Dynamix), but on any other PC it works fine.  Browser doesn't seem to matter, but is definitely machine specific in my case.

 

One interesting thing that I just noticed today is that if I open it and leave the blank window on the PC that it doesn't work on, if I go to another PC, and open the log from the GUI, it will populate data in both PC's windows.  Here is the really weird part, it doesn't display the same data.  On the PC that always works, I can see the tail commands with the current timestamp, but on the problematic PC, it is leaving off the last about 20 entries.

Tried another machine, and then another, nothing shows in the box.  Very strange.

Sorry to dig up an old thread but same issue here on a new install of unraid licenced as a plus product.

 

Clicking log at the top right shows a blank page and it just continues to load, tested chrome and IE - same issue.

 

Logging into the shell and running tail_log generates output and the logging.htm file is present in /usr/local/emhttp so I'm stumped.  Did anyone get to the bottom of this issues as (touch wood) this is the only issue i'm seeing on my install.

 

Cheers,

 

Colin
