Fresh 22.7 install GUI will not load

[Anth]

I am really just posting this hoping you fix this. I downloaded 22.7 AMD64 VGA version and installed it to my brand new Intel NUC

Problem was aftar installation, the GUI would not load. It simply brought up a white screen. No option to enter username or password. Just a blank white screen when I put the IP address in.

I tried changing in the shell WAN and LAN interfaces. Changing to DHCP login address, then static, assigning my PC a static address, then DHCP, changing from HTTPS to HTTP in the shell options. I tried disabling all security, Antivirus, Ad blockers on my PC. Tried Multiple browsers all the same problem. I then tried a totally different PC with no security on it. Same thing.  I then installed a fresh version of windows onto a brand new VMware with no security on it. Same thing

I reinstalled Opnsense from scratch onto the NUC, same thing. Then updated it from the shell. I did everything same issue. I tried the live version, same thing. I spent well over 12hrs and could not get it to just open the GUI.

As simply a troubleshooting test I wiped the NUC and installed PFsense, the install process looked identical to Opnsense's and straight away GUI loaded after installation of it to my hard drive.

I am extremely reluctant to wipe this NUC to try Opnsense again as it seems something is broken in the install process. I do not know what it is. But I am fairly confident something within Opnsense v22.7 is causing the GUI not to load given PFsense worked straight away so while it might be some compatibility issue. PFsense didn't flag it. I was hoping someone could possibly look into this and fix it.

Can you post the source text of the blank page if there is any? This is very very irregular. I don't recall this being mentioned ever before.

I might suggest also asking for a "view source" dump.  See whats actually coming through.

Yup, that's what I meant.
