Need Help - Debugging slow webgui

[ianf]

Update:

I just updated to opnsense-22.7.9_3, and the logs supported my suspicion of configd being broken:

From the update logs:

Code Select Expand


...
Starting configd.
Bus error (core dumped)
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/configd: WARNING: failed to start configd
...


Does anyone know how to fix this?

You can't like this but I'm beginning to think there might be hardware problems behind apparently unrelated problems

Code Select Expand

"Bus error (core dumped)"
I would personally be inclined to save the config you can. Reinstall and restore config.
To see if the problems go. I imagine they won't but at least you'll be able to switch from chasing software problems.

[ianf]

I guess that might be the case. We've reinstalled multiple times by now, and as it's not stayed better, I guess hardware has the highest probability. Do you or anyone else have any insights on what the `Bus error` could stand for?

Log in via SSH and type

dmesg

That possibly shows something.

[ianf]

dmesg shows a bunch of errors:

those are the ones I'm seing the most, apart from arp changes.

Hints at a memory or CPU problem. Overheating can also cause these.

[ianf]

Core temps sit between 34 and 39°C, so I guess RAM or CPU. I'll look into replacing our unit then.

Recognized the slow Gui as well. DNS Lookup to FW Hostname is working ok.
Deleted all Logs, slowness still persists.

Have still these errors in System: Log Files: Web GUI

Code Select Expand

In my Case when I connect via IP Address to the Box the GUI is reacting fast..., connecting via FW Hostname is still slow...

I have the exact same problem
