Hi,
Since upgrading to 1.1b13 some hours ago, the webGUI has "crashed" on
me a few times. That is the webGUI will, typically after working fine
for a while, suddenly stop responding (IE gives me the "this page is
no longer available on the server..." mumbojumbo). Everything else
appear to go on working (that is, I can still access the WAN, and
m0n0wall will still respond to a ping).
Might this be related to the new httpd connection limit thingie? (I
certainly hope that I was the only "user" at the time of the crashes,
as I've otherwise got a much more serious problem! But I don't know if
one use, using IE, can account for more than one "connection",
although I should think it unlikly that the webGUI should cause so
many connections to be established, as to invoke the new limitation?!?)
Sorry that I can't give you any kind of "how-to-reproduce" (other than
navigating around in the webGUI for a while.) There doesn't appear to
be any specific page causing this (first time I was navigating from
the DHCP log tab to the firewall log tab, the second time was on some
other page enterily, don't remember which, might have been the graph
page though?) However, since it has already happened twice, only a
couple of hours after I installed beta 13, and after even less time
spent in the webGUI, I guess it shouldn't be too hard to reproduce
(that is, unless it is something specefic to my setup?!?)
Apart from these recent ones, I haven't experienced a single webGUI
crash since Manuel fixed the problem with double-clicking the
Apply/Save buttons (which was related to accessing the config.xml
file, rather than the webGUI itself, and this time I wasn't updating
anything when the crashes happened!) Thus I must assume the bug has
been introduced in the latest beta (as I've updated to each beta as
they were released, without having this problem before the current
1.1b13).
By the way: I've been running with the captive portal enabled for some
time, but the host from which I'm doing my webGUI'ing is listed in
both the MAC and the IP whitelists. Dunno if this have anything to do
with it (I will now try to disable it, and see if I still get
"crashes", I'll let you know along the way...)
Let me know if I can supply any further information?
