Hi Egbert, It sounds like after the package update, lighttpd got restarted with the default settings in '/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf', and the default 'document-root' settings are pointed to '/var/www' instead of '/var/www/pages'. The reason why you saw the general login page layout but not the content when you browsed to http://my-server/pages/ is because loading that content depends on 'document-root' to be set to '/var/www/pages'
To fix this problem, it is necessary to get lighttpd restarted with the Vyatta config file '/opt/vyatta/etc/lighttpd.conf' rather than the default config file '/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf'. Do you have the Vyatta config file '/opt/vyatta/etc/lighttpd.conf' on your system? To restart lighttpd with proper config file, try the following sequence of commands from the root bash shell: /etc/init.d/lighttpd stop /opt/vyatta/sbin/lighttpd.init start The above should shut down lighttpd with default settings, and start it up again with Vyatta-specific settings. Then try browsing to the server and using the GUI again. Hit F5 in your browser just to make sure that you load a fresh page. Let me know how it goes, Thanks, Marat ----- Original Message ----- From: "Egbert Jan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <vyatta-users@mailman.vyatta.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2007 1:15 PM Subject: [Vyatta-users] Web interface gone... > Hi, > > In an attempt to update my router (was already on 2.2 community testing > branch), I used the update commands from the webinterface.
