Web interface unresponsive
-
Hi there
I use pfsense quit a while and love it
today i setup a veeam replication from our office in germany to our CoLo in the US
This happens via an IPSec tunnel between pfsense and an Forigate 600 Firewall
we got really good bandwith through this tunnel ~ 18 Mbit sync ~140 ms latencysince the job started (seeding an USB drive backup plus final replication) the webinterface of my pfsense box is unresponsive
the hardware
Supermicro 1HE server
Core2Duo 2,97 GHz
4GB Ram
2 Intel onboard Nics 2 Intel Dual Port PCIe 4x
Transcend 2GB SataDom
pfsense 2.0.02 64bit release embeddedI'm connected on a 34 Mbit line, the other site is on 20Mbit
I can login to SSH but there is no way to get to the webinterface
device polling is not turned onI guess the hardware should be enough for at least gigabit speed
top does show 100% idle and 0,0% interrupts when login on via ssh
openvpn does work
ipsec tunnels are up (i have 4)should i go with device polling ?
any idea, what could cause this or where i could look ?
EDIT
fond this command
killall -9 php; killall -9 lighttpd; /etc/rc.restart_webguilooks like this helped
is this maybe "just 64bit" related ?

Has nothing to do with the VPN if you can SSH in (and judging by your CPU load). May be the general problem with fastcgi crashing in 2.0.2 that's fixed in 2.0.3.

thx

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.)Best

Confirm this issue - My firewall GUI just halted totally - Can't access gui at all and console is not awailable. SSH/telnet menu is not enabled. This is a bit problematic issue and must be fixes ASAP :o

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.

Hello,acording to my experience, 2.1 Beta1 still have this issue, the dying webconfigurator thing…
