Quick and probably stupid Q: do I need drives in for the WebUI to load?

Featured Replies

Hey,

 

I'm building a new server with the goal of moving drives across when I know it's working. I'm using a trial version on a USB key for now, and the new system has no hard drives/disks. 

 

The server boots OK and I can ssh in, but I can't access the Web UI. Does it need a drive in the system for the Web UI to load, or is it a problem elsewhere in the setup?

 

Thanks

No, you just need the boot flashdrive.

Hmm, ok. I'll get there diagnostic logs later today and upload them. Thanks for the quick reply!

You've probably got a bad cable, as the NIC is only connecting at 100MB/s

 

Can you hit the UI if you go to it's IP address of 192.168.1.249?

I think I'm temporarily using a 100Mbps cable, but will try find an actual good cable. 

 

Can't access UI via that IP but can SSH in fine, so wasn't thinking it was cable. Will give it a go later. Thanks!

If it helps, I don't see anything listening on any web ports:

...which makes me think that it's emhttp/nginx not listening, rather than the connection?

Not sure if this is relevant:

Mar 31 04:03:04 flower root: Starting Nginx server daemon...
Mar 31 04:03:04 flower root: nginx: [emerg] PEM_read_bio_DHparams("/etc/nginx/dhparam.pem") failed (SSL: error:0909006C:PEM routines:get_name:no start line:Expecting: DH PARAMETERS)
Mar 31 04:03:04 flower emhttpd: shcmd (22): exit status: 1
Mar 31 04:03:04 flower emhttpd: too many devices

Also, given that there are 0 drives and just a USB drive, that last line is confusing?

You can delete the contents of SSL and SSH on the flash drive

Woohoo - that did it, thanks!
