Dedi web GUI not responding


Recommended Posts

Actually not the host OS - but a VM running on a bare metal hypervisor.

 

So there is two basic types of virtualization:

Type 1: (native or bare-metal) sits directly on the hardware and doesn't need any other operating system installation.

Type 2: (hosted) sits on top of a full fledged operating system (e.g. Debian, Windows etc.)

 

So this config here breaks and causes the LOCAL "Server not responding" issue in ALL cases (100% reproducible):

  • Hardware
  • OS = Proxmox (tested, bugged) / XenServer (Citrix Hypervisor) (tested, bugged) / VMware ESXi (untested!) etc.
  • VirtOS = Windows 10 / Windows Server 2019 etc.

 

While this config for example is working:

  • Hardware
  • OS = Windows / Debian etc.
  • VM = VMware Workstation
  • VirtOS = Windows 10 / Windows Server 2019 etc.

 

I tested this on the same hardware within multiple networking environments - same result every time.

 

Hence I was asking if those who are affected by the LOCAL webgui "Server not responding" bug are eventually sitting on top of a true type 1 VMM.

 

This can very well be the case even for rented machines as almost every server machine nowadays is sitting on some sort of native hypervisor platform due to massive performance gains and additional features like live migration, high availability etc.

 

Keep in mind that the WebGUI broke precisely with patch 2.5.5.31917

Can confirm for you, I tested on ESXi 6.7, and both LOCAL and REMOTE are not responding.

Yes correct no fix in the patch, but now my server cannot be seen or joined since the patch

 

Manually updating the openbeta server with DCS Updater in cmd to the correct version fixed this for me. server can now be seen and joined again

This was in the change log

 

MP. Dedicated Server. Webgui: hardware related local and remote access to dedicated server fixed

 

Can anyone confirm it’s fixed? Won’t have a chance to test it until later this week

It's now working for me, using full client installation with --server and --no-render options. I just have to make reconnect on the first time the page is loading, but then it's fine.

Dashboard tested only locally from the server itself.

I am experiencing the same issue (WebGUI not responding) though I am already on the newest release. Freshly installed dedicated server just yesterday. Tried on bare-metal first and then in a Virtual Machine. No luck at all. AES-NI is activated according to CPU-Z test. Though it should work with and without anyways.

 

The port 8088 itself is up and running. Tested locally and from the local network. But I get a 404 when accessing the site. Is there anywhere you could point me to further troubleshoot?

 

I have added the log of the probably more important entries. Did not find how to spoiler the long logs in this forum.

 

Thank you all,

Sascha

Archive your log and attach here as well as dxdiag.

Do you use PC or Mac+BootCamp?

Just to let you know. I got it working now, at least from the local GUI.

 

First I disabled IPv6 on the server > Did not change anything

Then I have installed Java, though I did not see any reference that this is needed > Did not change anything

Finally I have installed Google Chrome.

 

With Google Chrome I can now access the local GUI (from the server itself). Accessing from remote, even with Google Chrome on the remote client, still does not work. But I can now start the server and it seems to work fine now. So I am happy :thumbup:

 

So for me either Google Chrome or any combination of above steps did the job.

Which browser did you use before? See first post here:

 

Issue: Web control does't works on MS browsers (EDGE, IE). Repair in progress. Please use Chrom, Firefox.

Well all was working fine over the past few days and now all of a sudden only able to connect via the local gui. Don't even see my server listed on my profile either. Hoping just a DCS gui system glitch at the moment.

 

EDIT: All seems to be working again, following a complete reboot of the server.

I have a related issues with the GUI that I have noticed since it started working. If you use the GUI to start a different mission, the serversettings.lua sometimes gets changed including the server name, password is removed, number of players changes back to 16, and required pure models changes back to true. Is there another location for default settings that I need to address besides what is in my saved games serversettings.lua file or do I need to copy mine into the main DCS config folder?

sorry for the the threadnomancy; i have this problem with the current DCS2.5.6 beta build, the remote session is working fine (via the portal), the local session just gives server not responding, i have also installed chrome same symptoms.

 

For clarity i get the dialogue box in the DCS Server Dashboard when local, specify control port 8088, server not responding, and a retry button... remote i'm fine
