alin Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) i wonder if is just me, but i can't get the gui to work on FreeBsd X64. I'm trying to get btsync to work on Nas4Free, and yes i can get 1.x btsync version to work just fine. what i can't get to work is 2x version, more precise the GUI doesn't seem to respond, my browser just waits for a response for a long time and nothing comes back. here's what i did: 1. download the latest version of btsync 2.0 from https://download-cdn.getsyncapp.com/stable/FreeBSD-x64/BitTorrent-Sync_freebsd_x64.tar.gz. I just re-execute all these steps today (March 7, 2015).2. untar and start using this command line: # ./btsync --webui.listen 0.0.0.0:88883. everything starts up fine, i can see these things in .sync/sync.log[20150307 11:01:55.133] Using IP address 192.168.1.240[20150307 11:01:55.151] Loading config file version 2.0.85[20150307 11:01:55.151] My PeerID: 10E469C9EA8D9484720D980E61BFC25B5610C845[20150307 11:01:56.137] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.240:49152/description.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:01:56.284] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.11:1400/xml/device_description.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:01:56.286] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.12:49153/setup.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:01:56.287] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.24:49152/nasdevicedesc.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:01:56.288] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.13:49153/setup.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:01:56.290] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.24:9000/dev0/desc.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:01:56.334] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.24:9000/dev1/desc.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:01:56.385] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.14:1400/xml/device_description.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:02:07.568] NAT-PMP: Unable to map port with NAT-PMP.[20150307 11:21:57.181] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.11:1400/xml/device_description.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:21:57.237] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.24:49152/nasdevicedesc.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:21:57.241] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.12:49153/setup.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:21:57.244] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.13:49153/setup.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:21:57.296] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.14:1400/xml/device_description.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:21:57.337] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.24:9000/dev0/desc.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:21:57.643] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.24:9000/dev1/desc.xml": (-2) [20150307 11:22:00.091] UPnP: Device error "http://192.168.1.240:49152/description.xml": (-2) i'm not too worried about those errors, i got those on a different device/build (WD MyPassport wireless/ARM linux) and they seem to be part of the first startup. after the first startup everything seems to be working normally. 4. when i go to http://192.168.1.240:8888 the browser just spins, nothing comes back. i'm looking right now at the browser and it's been waiting for at least 20 minutes. i tried with Chrome (my default browser) and also with Safari. same behaviour. i have btsync 2.0 installed on a couple of other devices and everything works just fine. as far as i can tell this seems to be a problem with the FreeBSD x64 build. i can see that the browser actually connects on the port, is just that the server doesn't responds for some reasons (or waits on something?) # netstat -an | grep 8888tcp4 82 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.49316 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 82 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.49314 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 0 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64699 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 0 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64698 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 404 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64697 ESTABLISHEDtcp4 427 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64696 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 0 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64662 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 0 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64661 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 0 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64660 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 0 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64659 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 427 0 192.168.1.240.8888 192.168.1.23.64658 CLOSE_WAITtcp4 0 0 *.8888 *.* LISTEN any idea what i'm doing wrong? i'm inclined to say the FreeBSD x64 build has a problem but i can't prove that Edited March 7, 2015 by alin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_q Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Probably no real answer/help for you, but I know this behaviour from btsync when the system is 'a bit underpowered' and the shares it has to index contain _a_lot_ of files ... ... then the bootstrap of btsync seems to take a very long time, and in this time, the webinterface doesn't react at all (but the systems kernel already accepted the TCP-Connection. Hence no timeout) So often enough it seems simply enough to just wait until it has done its thing. When I switched to latest btsync 2 it also took me a very while to react.So I was interested to find out what it's doing and startet to watch the open filehandles with "lsof" What I found for _MY_ system, was, that I was syncing a folder, which contained some symlinks into "/"And btsync seemed to follow them recursively. The problem when I catched it doing this, was, that it seemedto get stuck somewhere in$MYSHARE/some_directory/symlink_to_root/proc/$SOMEPID/root/proc/$SOMEPIDso it turned nice circles indexing all the files in /proc without noticing .... Thats something I haven't seen before with 1.4.* Maybe you're experiencing something similar ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alin Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Thank you for the info, it makes a lot of sense so i try it. i started the daemon 2 days ago, got a bit busy with other stuff and just left it running without checking it. i checked the daemon couple of minutes ago (again, after couple of days) and is gone. nothing in the logs to explain what happen, the daemon just crashed like 10 hours ago after running for a day or so. i restarted the daemon and i'm going to try again after i leave it for a little while to do it's thing. in terms of resources my system is decent (16GB ram, quad core proc). it is a NAS system so i have quite the number of files. now, i haven't configured btsync in any way (can't get to the UI to do it and i don't want to handcraft a config file) so i haven't specified any shared folders. this is the initial start for me to get to the UI and configure folders. i do see this in lsof which i'm not sure what to make of it btsync 9741 root rtd VDIR 0,131 512 2 / Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alin Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 no luck, just tried to access the webui with same behaviour...the connection is established on 8888 but the webui is non-responsive. i guess i need to wait for the next release?

tobias_ Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) Same problem here, I also consider the FreeBSD x64 build to be broken. I just saw that there is a duplicate topic: http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/34440-btsync-20-gui-not-accesible-on-freebsd-x86-64/ (problem acknowledged and fix under way) Edited April 3, 2015 by tobias_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrendavid Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 I third this note. Also unable to access the webui on FreeBSD 10.1 x64. 1.4.11 worked fine, this is my first attempt to upgrade to 2.0. Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
