WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
Hello,
I am using Virtualization Station 3 on my TS-251+ and have the following issue: each time after a reboot of the NAS the WebGUI (Admin Panel) of Virtualization Station isn't available: there will be displayed an error message, see screenshot attached.
When stopping the Virtualization Station App and starting again, everything works fine.
Has anybody similiar problems or can you give me a hint to solve the problem?
Thanks,
markus

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
Hmmm see if it happens when you connect via just straight http? You don't say what version and build of QTS you are on, but could be a quirk with the webserver.

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
Sorry: I am using QTS 4.3.3.0361 Build 20171101
I am accessing the Admin-WebGUI of my qnap TS 251+ via https. In the admin webgui I choose "Virtualization Station" from menu to access the virualization station control panel to manage my VMs. After a reboot of the NAS each time the error message occurs. When I stop virtualization station in App Center and start it again, I can successfully access the Virtualization station webgui...
It is reproducable and happens each time after I am doing a reboot of my NAS...

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
And did you try testing using http as suggested?

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
How can I test it? I am redirected to https automatically when accessing the webgui of my nas...
@edit: Ah, ok, I see: I can access the virtualization station admin directly via tcp-ports configured in virtualization station. I'll try it later, in the moment a backup is running, so I cannot reboot...

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
I have tried to access via http and https. It seems that the webserver of virtualization station 3 doesn't come up after a nas reboot. nmap gives the following result after reboot:
So the two listening ports for virtualization station ist not listed (tcp/8088 and 8089)
After stopping and starting virtualization station the two ports appear in nmap and I can successfully connect to virtualization station mangement webgui:
So: what's going wrong during reboot of the nas. Is there any log file on file system where I could have a look what's going on?
Code: Select all
PORT STATE SERVICE
21/tcp open ftp
22/tcp open ssh
80/tcp open http
139/tcp open netbios-ssn
443/tcp open https
445/tcp open microsoft-ds
514/tcp open shell
548/tcp open afp
631/tcp open ipp

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
I would at this point open a helpdesk ticket with QNAP on the issue.

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
Good idea, that I've already tried: but qnap support is compelling me to bring back the original RAM (2GB) into the NAS (I have upgraded it to 8GB) and refuse any support without the original RAM. And they don't want to explain what relation they see to this problem...
If it would be a defect of the RAM module, my experience tells me that there would be other problems (freezing of the whole system, crashes, etc.), but not a reproducable thing like this. They don't want to help without replacing the RAM...
My problems started when upgrading to QTS 4.3...

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
Well it will depend on HOW you upgraded to 8GB. If you are using a SINGLE 8GB DIMM in it, that IS an unsupported configuration by both Intel & QNAP so they do have a right to push issue.
I have 16GB in my 453Pro (same family cpu, just J1900 vs. J1800 in the 251+). That is an unsupported config, and the majority of the time I didn't have any issues with techs about it, but it is within QNAP's right to force the issue.
Now if you have 2x4GB Dimms for your 8GB config, then you should be OK and I would ask them WHAT is pointing to that being an issue.
Other option is calling their phone support (if you are from a country that has that) and try getting a different tech (give them you case #) to see if they will work to resolve the issue w/o the memory item.
QTS 4.3 was a major change (even though it was must a .X release) with the migration to 64-bit. The early days where rough, but my boxes have been stable the last few builds.

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
I am using 2 x 4 GB SO DDR3 1600 CL11, so it shouldn't be a problem. In the official support document I have found this about RAM upgrade: "Always ensure that a memory module is installed in the Primary slot (red). If not, then the system will fail to start. When installing two memory modules, please ensure that they are the same size and ideally use the same type of RAM for both memory slots. The maximum supported memory is 8GB combined. " (ref.: https://www.qnap.com/en/support/con_show.php?cid=9#5_4 )
So I am not willing to do such strange thing... I have asked what is pointing to the RAM being an issue, but qnap support doesn't answer this question. They told me that the engineers won't continue on this ticket when I will not replace the RAM to original one. Such a support is not very helpful.
I am trying out some things now, like deinstalling Notes Station 3 and container station. They produce often some error messages. Maybe my problem has to do with this apps... The software quality of qnap doesn't inspire confidence. I am missing my synology nas The only thing why I switched to qnap was the ability to use virtualization (which synology is offering now too). With qnap I am not very happy and I wouldn't buy it again.

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
After deinstalling container station and notes station 3 and a reboot of the NAS, the two tcp-Ports 8088 and 8089 will be listed as open by nmap. When accessing to it (not logged in via nas webgui) only a blank page is displayed. When logging in to nas webgui and accessing http://nas:8088 I get this now:
What is the system doing? Virtualization Station is at 75% for more than 10 minutes... The system is very busy, in the background the media scanning process is running after the reboot. Maybe this is slowing down Virtualization Station? But I have stopped it, but the progress bar of Virtualization Station 3 remains at 75%....

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
Ok.. so a couple things.
How many NW ports do you have cabled on the NAS?
Switch Media Scanning to manual for now. Also disable qsirch if you have that installed as heavy I/O on reboot.
Do you have Container Station or Linux Station installed?
Have you backed up your VM's?

Re: WebGUI of Virtualization Station not available after reboot
Reinstalling VS has solved the problem.
Before deinstalltion of VS3 I had to clone my VM to make a backup of it (the VM was created with VS 2 and for this you cannot make a backup under VS3).
So something has been corrupt in my installation, maybe in conjunction with the upgrade from QTS4.2 to 4.3 and/or VS 2 to VS 3.
But there seems not to be any influence of my RAM. Thanks for your help here in the forum!!
And no thanks to qnap for the poor support.
