….

2.3.4-RELEASE-p1 (amd64)
built on Fri Jul 14 14:52:43 CDT 2017
FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p19

4 gigs of ram.

Everybody has this version ;)
But only a few have actually 4 Gbytes memory.
I have this

10% of 2003 MiB

and only 10 % is used ….

With 50 % memory usage your telling us that you're not telling everything. Sorry, we can't come over checking your setup - start detailing it.

what more do you want? There is zero swap being used…cpu usage is below 25% on average. The system runs fine when the web gui dies. There's no spike in usage or anything else. If the swap file was being touched I would double the ram...but shutdown takes forever and 5 years with 8 gigs due to it needing to flush flush all of that ram..so I dropped it to 4 gigs. Disk activity is normal(aka it is not getting pegged either).

here's the host mahcine setup:
Dell R610: 1U, 2 X L5640 2.27 GHZ HC + HT, 48 GB DDR3 ECC, 4 x 1 GB Interfaces, 2 x 10GE Fiber Interfaces, DRAC(Dedicated interface), 6 x 2.5" HotSwap trays, H200 Controller, 2 x 250 GB SSD RAID 1(Boot). 2 x 1 TB HDD RAID 1 7.2k RPM(VM Array), 2 x 2 TB HDD 7.2k RPM (DATA Array) ReFS Formatted)

There's the full skinny on the vm and the host.

Next time try console option 16 then option 11 to see if that works before rebooting.

I had tried both of those..no dice…:)

Then you are seeing something unique to what anyone else is seeing.

Perhaps something happening outside the firewall?

You could do something like curl –insecure https://lan.ip.add.ress/ from the shell prompt and see if the web server is actually responding locally.

If so you might need to get creative with tcpdump while attempting connections and see if the traffic is even arriving.

The firewall itself continues to function fine it is the webgui that dies. when/if it does it again i
ll try those commands.

Run also this

ps ax | grep 'nginx'

ones, when it works,
and when it stops responding.

MY problem( just ahead of yours in list) shows nothing when 'ps ax|
grep nginx' ! Et tu?
