Suddenly can't access HTTP or SSH

[REBELinBLUE]

I have had the F4-220 for a couple of weeks.

This evening I restarted it, from the menu in TOS but when it restarted I could not access the WebUI, nginx just gave 502 Bad Gateway and SSH wouldn't work

Code: Select all

❯ ssh -vvv [email protected] -p 9222
OpenSSH_8.8p1, OpenSSL 1.1.1l  24 Aug 2021

debug1: connect to address 192.168.1.162 port 9222: Connection refused
ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.162 port 9222: Connection refused

But I could connect to SMB shares. After trying for an hour or so nothing I did worked so I ended up reinstalling as detailed in this thread viewtopic.php?f=76&t=423&hilit=502+bad+gateway

Thankfully it worked and my data is still there but now I am really nervous about the safety of my data, how does a NAS just stop working like that? All 3 drives report healthy and the storage pool and volume report good.

Are there any logs I can check? Looks like /var/log was replaced on reinstall so nothing there

It seems the nginx service failed to start properly. did you install some third party apps or update the TOS from very early version recently? it's a system file issue, this will not effect the data stored on the hard drive.

As I know, the F4-220 has been end of life more than 2 years, I don't understand why you just owned it for weeks. did you purchase a second hand product?

Sorry I meant the F4-210

Yeah I get that nginx wasn't starting, but SSH wasn't either, that is the thing that concerned me.

I hadn't recently updated. I had installed lsof from entware, to try and track down the aaaa file issue so I wonder if somehow that was causing problems. Guess I will keep an eye on it
