Admin WebUI

for some reason my admin WebUI stops working.
after a reboot(only way i can get it back) it may be 1 week or weeks before it does it again.
i cant find anything in any logs(unless i'm looking in the wrong spot).
i check with netstat and there's definitely nothing listening on port 80.
i tired to figure out how thecus is starting this but they seem to make thing as confusing as possible.

anyone know how to start it manually or where i might find a log with something usefull in it.
other than that the server is running fine,i just cant log in to update modules,ect without doing a reboot.

Thanks.

check if the server ui is running

Code:

N5810:~# ps | grep UIserver.py
1821 root      5976 S    grep UIserver.py

If not, start with this command

Code:

/opt/python/bin/python /img/WebUI/admin/UIServer.py </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1 &

Then start the apache server if not running

Code:

/opt/apache/bin/httpd -f /var/run/httpd.cfg -E /var/logs/httpd/httpd_log -k start

Uiserver.py is not running, start it manually

thanks again.
login is working again.
any thoughts on how to figure out why its stopping?

i finally figured out the issue.
i am running letsencrypt and in the letsencrypt.rc file there is a typo.

in the NASwebstop ()
/opt/apache/bin/httpd -f /var/run/httpd.cfg -k start
should be
/opt/apache/bin/httpd -f /var/run/httpd.cfg -k stop

i changed this to stop(web interface was down) and after letsencrypt finished its check it was back up again.

btw in your instructions above to check if UIServer is running there's another typo
ps | grep UIserver.py
should be
ps | grep UIServer.py
