Web GUI 503 and 500 error on FN 8RC4

Web GUI 503 and 500 error on FN 8.2RL

So it seems every now and then I get error 503 - Service Not Available and 500 - Internal Server Error but everything else seems to work just fine. SSH works and I am still able to access my shares but the web gui seems to crap out. I tried getting the web gui to come back up by restarting the lighttpd service but no change.
Could I be getting this error because my server has a pretty significant load on it or is something else going on?
Usually when I get this error a restart fixes it but this is extremely inconvenient when I have traffic moving to and from my server. Restarting the server requires restarting all incoming and outgoing traffic and interupts production.
Is there any way to fix the errors or find out what is going on?

Server is a Supermicro X7DBN w/8GB of RAM and 12 Samsung 2TB HDs with dual gigabit nics that are teamed and I am running FreeNAS 8.2 RL

Hi, I have been getting the exact same errors as you. I have tried everything to fix it. If you have a solution please message me. If you email me I will contact you if I solve the problem.

After looking at my hard drives I noticed that the contacts were corroding, which is probably the cause of my problem. I don't know about you though.

I can check my drives but I don't think that a bad power contact on a hard drive would cause the gui interface to become unresponsive. I don't know about your system but on mine it is just the gui that becomes non responsive. SSH and CIFS still function but the gui goes down and when I check the logs nothing shows up. It almost sounds as if for some reason the http service becomes busy waiting on something that isn't timing out and restarting the service doesn't restart what ever is timing out.
Every time I check my zpool status everything is in the clear with no errors. I would suspect that a bad contact on a hard drive would cause some sort of error in the pool status. However I could be wrong.
Any thoughts?

What FN version are you running? I'm pretty sure it is not 8.2 RL...

 

[Visseroth]

FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p6

Hi Visseroth,

That's the FreeBSD version.

In the GUI look at the "FreeNAS Build" line (second from the top) in the "System Information" tab or run this command "cat /etc/version.freenas" from the command line if you ssh in.
