Posting for anyone in the future who's having this issue. It seems the issue was that I was using https://192.168.1.1/#/adv/home instead of http://192.168.1.1/. That might've caused it.

Well it just started workin outta nowhere, I went into the shell, typed ps ax |grep lighty to check the webui process, and after that I tried accessing the webui again, and it's up. EXTREMELY weird, hopefully it doesn't happena again.

Opnsense Firmware: Version 24.7.1

Hi everyone, I set up everything in opnsense (firewall rules, DNS, DHCP, etc) and it was working fine, then all of a sudden my web ui is inaccessible, when I plug in a display into the router and log in, instead of displaying the server ip and opnsense menu it just takes me to a shell where I can type commands.

I have a cisco switch connected the the opnsense box, and I'm able to access it's IP (192.168.1.2), but can't access opnsense.

I disabled root user and added a user with admin perms that I was using to access the webUI and it was working.

My default opnsense IP was 192.168.1.1, the IP on my PC is 192.168.1.101 with the default gateway being 192.168.1.1 but I just get a message saying :

"This site can't be reached
192.168.1.1 took too long to respond."

I typed "ifconfig |less" and it shows the correct IP on the LAN port (attached pic)

I really don't want to factory reset the router if possible, took me a LOT of time to set everything up properly and get it working (it's my first time), but I can't get to the webUI to change any settings.

When setting up I mostly used this guide : https://homenetworkguy.com/how-to/set-up-a-fully-functioning-home-network-using-opnsense/ , with a couple of tweaks of my own.

I've tried:
Restarting my router
Plugging ethernet into the Lan port on my protectli and the other end on my laptop
Pluggin my laptop into the switch connected to the router
Using a different laptop
Using a different browser
Checking IP through the shell of the box
