Web interface dies while BitTorrenting

I am having an intermittent issue with the web interface on my DNS-323. I do have ffp installed, which I think may have affected things.

What happens is, if I have a BitTorrent going and leave the tab open, eventually the ajaxy interface stops refreshing with the latest download stats. Then, if I try to go to the login page to log back into the system, I am greeted with a white page and black text that basically says, "Service not found" - like the web service is still responding, but it's forgotten how to execute the code it usually executes.

To get it working again, I have to log in via SSH and reboot - or power-cycle the device. After that, the actual downloads seem to finish and work fine. Other services also seem to behave fine, it's just the web service that goofs up.

It seems to be behaving as though it's running out of memory or something. Any ideas on how to make it more stable?

Re: Web interface dies while BitTorrenting

It's a known bug. I swear we've discussed it before on this forum, but I can't find the posts. Must have been somewhere else. Report it to DLINK (although bug reporting to them is a pain in the $#$). If enough people report it, maybe they will finally fix the issue in a new FW update.

Re: Web interface dies while BitTorrenting

Specifically, it says this:

Access Error: Site or Page Not Found
when trying to obtain /web/login.asp?id=3488930

Cannot open URL

I'll get around to reporting it eventually. As far as I know, it only started after I installed FFP - however, that was relatively close to when I upgraded to 1.06 firmware, so I might just not have noticed it prior to that.

Re: Web interface dies while BitTorrenting

I'm having the same issue  - no web access - but I haven't installed FFP.

Re: Web interface dies while BitTorrenting

birdog: Do you have the iTunes sharing and uPnP sharing set up under the tools? I find that they tend to make the unit's CPU spiral out of control. If you turn both of those off, and reboot the unit, it might fix the web access thing. One of the neat things about having FFP installed, though, is that I get to put an SSH server on it, so I have a key-based passwordless authentication set up. That means that if the web interface ever quits, all I have to do is a quick "ssh root@[hostname] reboot" and it's back in about a minute or so.

yep, I've got both those features turned on. Thanks for that info, I'll give it a try. I've also read that I should log out of the downloading page when I'm done with bittorrent.

FFP is definitely on my list of things to do with this box. I'm a total linux noob, but I'm gonna get my feet wet just as soon as it finishes backing up about 140GB of files... which, by the way, it's doing in a punishingly slow manner.
