May 28, 20197 yr Hi, I've had my unraid setup using HTTPS for a while now using Settings>Identification>Management Access' settings. It works well for the most part, however if the internet connection goes down the web UI is inaccessible. I don't think this is a bug - obviously things like Let's Encrypt are dependent on an internet connection. However, I was wondering if there was a way around this for when the internet connection goes down? I've tried connecting using http://x.x.x.x:80, but that just redirects me to the HTTPS version. Right now the only way around this that I can tell is to SSH into the system and changing USE_SSL auto to no, then restarting the server, but that's fairly cumbersome. Does anyone have any nifty solutions to this issue or am I stuck being dependent on an internet connection for smooth operation of the server's web UI? Thanks!
September 2, 20214 yr Hi There, I know you posted this back in 2019, ..Where you able to get this solved? I have the exact same problem. When the Internet goes down, the 'secure' https doesn't let me go back into the Unraid web GUI. I would type in the URL or the IP address of the server, but no connection. Thanks for any help.
September 2, 20214 yr Even if you don't have the My Servers plugin installed, the instructions here explain how to get access when DNS name resolution is unavailable (i.e. when your Internet is down): https://wiki.unraid.net/My_Servers#How_to_access_your_server_when_DNS_is_down
