Web interface unresponsive

[RLM]

I see the exact some thing here.
The firewall was running fine, but the GUI crashed about 3 hours after I put the FW into production.
NOT the best start of my pfSense experience :o(

And the double kill command fixed it.

Any way of validating that it is the cgi-crash that causes this?
(In this way I can live with having to restart php and lighttpd sometimes.)

Clouseau, did you read all the topic???

The problem and the solutions is already posted…

@cmb:

May be the general problem with fastcgi crashing in 2.0.2 that's fixed in 2.0.3.

Yes - I read the topic, BUT I can't fix the situation by killing php and lighttpd and restarting webgui service- I need to fix this NOW, not in next release!

Reboot does not help either.

So apply the 2.0.3 pre-release upgrade or buy commercial support to have the instant help you need.

:)

There is no comercial support that can fix this issue onsite(s). Now I have lost 4 gui's from pfSense firewalls. Is there any idea what's causing it?

What I said earlier in the thread, some people are hitting fastcgi crashing in 2.0.2, upgrade to 2.0.3 or gitsync.

Yes yes - that's clear - now I just needed to get gui up again. Kill php and lighttpd and double restarting the webConfugurator helped.
