    You have the answer in the logs you posted. Nginx can't connect to php handler daemon on port 9000, most likely php-fpm.

    Well - that was easy... not as easy as have you tried to turn it off and back on?

    Seems like there was a issue with the password, so clearing and resetting all that on the phone resolved it.

    Yeah i faced the exact same issue, wanted to make alternative whatsapp thing just using apps and now the extra email thing is causing hassle, however that said you can register users manually and that will create passwords, like open registration feature, which is by default is enabled and head to your RC webpage and register. open it in incognito

    RP4 with 4GB of RAM

    The problem with Pi (and frankly a lot of the low end ARM) is these things have incomplete UEFI bios etc. You currently need to really be working on one of the distro's designed for it (Which is likely fine for your use case). ARM and our engineers are working on this though..

    Good point. Definitely an issue. Ubuntu, which is what we use, does make for them at least.

    @JasGot said in Best Plex player to use with a non smart tv or as a portable HDMI player?:

    @NashBrydges I looked at these. The Rokus do not present themselves as a mobile device, so this means I cannot use the Plex SYNC feature. This wouldn't really be that bad if it had internal storage it can play from. Managing everything from Plex would be nice, but I wouldn't mind copying stuff to an SD card or USB stick if I needed to.

    Do you know if any of the Rokus can play from local storage while offline?

    No, you're correct. While I haven't tried, they are supposed to be able to play content from a USB connected drive. That being sai, if you're looking at Plex, I'm assuming you have a Plex server installed. I have my Plex server in the datacenter and I can play content from that server from anywhere in the world using my Roku device. No transcoding required from the Plex server since the Roku handles all of that heavy lifting. The only thing required is to make sure your outbound bandwidth would allow full feed of your video files via internet from your Plex server. If you want this to run like this, you'll need to expose port 32400 (or other custom port you designate) to the internet otherwise all playback is handled through the Plex.tv servers and your playback will be throttled to 2Mbps max. I've been able to play a 70Mbps 4k HDR10 video from a remote location at full bandwidth this way.

    Netlify has a UI that you can build into your project. I haven't personally used them but they are a pretty popular static site host. From what I remember, the UI is just a single bit of javascript you add to your project.

    Playing with Hugo today and I'm liking it a lot. Thanks for pressuring me to stick with it till I got it working 🙂

    I got Hugo working well and set up in Azure DevOps so rebuild the site when I commit and push an update to the master repo.

    I really like it. Jekyll was great too, but now I think I prefer Hugo.

    This is what I do for my blog. Except it's built with a GitLab runner and it uses GitLab pages to present it.

    That makes sense, would a drop from 1GB/s to 100MB/s be expected? Seems huge...

    Depending on the system, yeah, especially with certain kinds of operations.

    Hi @JaredBusch, Thank you very much for your reply, I tested a same configuration on Friday and it worked fine with TFTP.
    Now Im trying to configure this with HTTP or HTTPS.

    Thanks again

    You can use tftp if you want. It works just fine. My issue with it is the lack of security.

    @Pete-S said in ASA 5516-X Intermittent Downtime:

    On the contrary, it tells us a lot about the business needs. Since the business decided to call him in the middle of the night, someone decided the firewall was important enough for them to do that, instead of waiting until the morning.
    Maybe nobody brought up the HA option when the firewall was put in place or the need wasn't there at the time.

    That someone was willing to call to report an issue truly tells us nothing. I get called off hours about truly worthless things all the time. Just because one person thinks that they should call and knows how to call doesn't mean that someone has assessed value. But that someone didn't buy HA tells us that at least at some point, someone decided HA wasn't worth it. That might have changed, and maybe they were wrong even at the time, but that decision of HA or no HA was made and a design built around that.

    The business isn't who necessarily called him, that denotes a key decision maker representing the company. All we really know is that someone working at a site decided to notify him. Fall all we know that was an intern who just happened to find his phone number. Or it was the CEO, we just don't know. That someone decided to call because they noticed something has to be taken with a grain of salt as we don't know who they were, or what they expected. Maybe they thought support was 24x7 and that it was their job to report things by phone whenever they happen. That's not uncommon and wouldn't give us any insight into the business' evaluation of the need.

    They did, but that lacks the upload function. Getting stuff to an HD isn't an issue normally.

    @wrx7m said in Tool for Finding Rogue DHCP:

    Ran into this about 12 years ago. A guy on the dev team decided to setup his own DHCP server. Screwed up all sorts of stuff. Can't remember for sure what we did, but I think after we realized that it wasn't actually an issue with our known DHCP servers, we decided to talk to the dev team and found out that is what he had done.

    It amazes me how many people just don't think about it - they have a problem, they think they know how to solve it, and just slap something onto the network.

    @Obsolesce said in Does ChromeOS make sense for a desktop?:

    I don't use the desktop for shortcuts even on Windows. I don't see why it's needed. It's just a clutter space, it's so much easier to have the shortcuts on the task bar, or start menu... Windows Key + Search works great on Windows and Linux GUI

    I honestly like using it as a scratch space for temp files. That said... ChromeOS doesn't have temp files in that way, so even my purpose for it goes away.

    yeah, that's true. Since editing a doc is in a webspace - you don't have the choice to really save the file/data to the desktop as a scratch pad... so you just have to save it into the cloud - it forces better behavior.

    Right, exactly.
