Identified BUG with MyBook Live Firmware Version 02.02.02-020 Web UI

WD Legacy Products My Book Live
1

I went in to set permissions for one user on several shares to read only and the Web UI, after a while gave me the error:

ERROR

32123 - Your last operation timed out. Please make sure you do not have network connectivity issues and try again.

 Thing is, while observing the processes using ps -AFH it seems to still be executing scripts to set permissions but now I don’t know IF the operation completed.

Also noticed that even though I didn’t asked the MAMC share to be altered the scripts still executed to changed MAMC from Read/Write to Read/Write. (Yep, that’s not a typographical error.)

The process tree observed looks like . . .

 It does “seem” like the operation completed, but I’m not sure.

Myron, are you able to kindly reproduce the same results when making the same operations?

Regards,

I do believe this has happened a few times except this time the “Please Wait” was on the browser for a while so I SSHed to the Linux shell to use “PS” and make sure it has not frozen.  What I can confirm is that once the error appeared the script that Apache2 has launched was still running.

What I did do is change the “RW/RO” status of several shares for one user.

Yep. It’s a problem. While I had the IP networking parameters statically set, guess what appears on the router’s log…

Thu, 20 Oct 2011 09:45:07 received REQUEST from 00:90:A9:XX:XX:XX
Thu, 20 Oct 2011 09:45:07 sending ACK to 172.16.0.103

 . . . and on that day the MBL has a static IP address setting so why is it sending an request to my router?
