The unRAID's Management Utility on the server console with Lynx...

lynx http://localhost/main.htm

Yeah forgot about Lynx, I use to use it to test if a web page was working on a particular web server without firing up a GUI session on it directly. Is it even part of the default bineries which unraid has? If not how did you get it going? Thanks.

...If not how did you get it going?

wget 'ftp://slackware.osuosl.org/pub/slackware/slackware-current/slackware/n/lynx-*.t?z'

I just get "Wait..." when I do lynx localhost

probably because I have set a root password?

Strange.. if I do lynx localhost:8080 i get to the unmenu page just fine..

 

anyway, tried lynx http://192.168.234.10 and  it asks for the user and password.. and then I'm back to the "Wait..." screen (I waited for 1/2 hour.. no change)

Honestly, I can't advise you.  I just discovered Lynx myself, and am playing with it.

I'm sure there must be more text web browsers that we can try on the console.

 

Same thing but now with Links...

links http://localhost/main.htm

Same here.

I removed the root password same results.

If I used the full path it works with or without the root password.

 

use full destination path as in

 

lynx http://localhost/main.htm

I would like to try Lynx, but I am a little behind the linux curve.  I do not understand the cryptic wget "ftp.....

 

Looks like a nice thing to try.

 

Is there some way I can just down load the package so I can do InstallPackage?

As an FYI, Lynx is incapable of being used to setup or make changes to the Devices tab of unRAID. It doesn't trigger the auto submit (javascript?) after a change is done to any of the combo-box controls.

And here's Links again but with "-g" option...

links -g -mode 640x480x16 http://localhost/main.htm

 

Now we're getting somewhere!    

 

As BRiT said, it doesn't properly refresh emhttp's submit buttons.  You can somewhat work around that: after a submit button, go back to "main.htm" with the left arrow <-- and refresh the page with Ctrl-r.  I was able to stop/start the array that way, even ran a parity check.

You can find both Lynx and Links in:

ftp://slackware.osuosl.org/pub/slackware/slackware-current/slackware/n/

 

The Lynx package works all by itself.

The Links package has a few dependencies: libtiff, libjpeg, libpng, and svgalib.

 

I noticed that when I get the lynx package downloaded it ends txz instead of tgz.  Does this make a difference?  Do I have to change the package name and the reference or it doesn't matter as long as the install reference points to the correct item?

 

TIA

You don't change the package name.  Installpkg can work with both .txz and .tgz formats. (unless you're running an older version of unRAID)

 

Got it.  Thanks I will try it shortly.

And now the same thing, but with w3m.  (w3m requires libgc)

w3m localhost/main.htm
