      Something strange happening with my firewall deployment…

      It has been working fine for ages and is still operating correctly apart from one GUI screen. If I try and access Firewall -> NAT (i.e. the firewall_nat.php page) the GUI hangs and never returns anything. I think that all other pages work OK - I have not tried them all but everything I have tried works OK.

      Comparing the /tmp/rules.debug with another firewall that works doesn't show anything wierd that would cause any issues so it looks like there is something in the underlying config that is causing the problem.

      Debugging in the browser shows the GET issues to the script but then nothing after that.

      I'd rather not start hacking the PHP to try and debug this so any suggestions anyone?

      Thanks!

        Have you tried restarting the GUI?

        A forceful kick to the GUI might just do the trick:

        killall -9 php; killall -9 lighttpd; /etc/rc.restart_webgui

          Hi,

          I have tried this and a full restart of the firewall - neither improved the situation.

            What version are you running?

            Does anything show up in the logs after that page hangs?
