SOLVED Can't access WebGUI after update.

[aaronouthier]

Hello,

I'm fairly new to FreeNAS and FreeBSD, although I am an advanced user of Linux, so I know my way around a command prompt.

I' just did a fresh install onto a 32 GB SSD, with a 500 GB SATA drive for storage (more drives will be added later). After setting a static IP on the FreeNAS portion and several plug-ins, I performed an update. Now when I try to access the Web GUI, I get a connection refused error. I've successfully logged-in via SSH, and I've found something that seems interesting: running "ps ax", gives me several lines of

/usr/local/sbin/httpd -DNOHTTPACCESS

It can't be running via SSL, as I never created any CA or host certificates.

I've tried doing a killall httpd, followed, by /usr/local/sbin/httpd, but it complains about a missing folder.

I won't have physical access to the machine until tomorrow. i would love to be able to get it running remotely. Sigh. I won't get my hopes up, though.
It's not like folks are likely to be busy on Super Bowl Sunday, right?

After further checking, it seems like I have a corrupt file system. Despite having installed several plug-ins, my /usr/pbi folder was empty - or is that even the correct folder for plug-ins?

I have shut-down the system. I'll be reinstalling when I go to work around 10:00 AM.
