I've been having problems with my Humax lately, no access to the Webif and unable to playback some recordings. Having read many useful threads here, I've tried allsorts to resolve the problem without success so resosrted to a clean install of the CF 3.13. However I'm still not getting access to the Webif with the browser just giving me the 500 error or partial loading of the grey bar at the top of the page.

Since loading the CF i've tried the following:-

1. fixdisk - took an age to run and found a couple of block errors
2. fixdisk - finished return code 0
3. fixweb

Please select option: fixweb

/mod/bin/jimsh: can't load library 'libcrypto.so.1.1'
/mod/bin/jimsh: can't load library 'libcrypto.so.1.1'

Then I tried the following:-

cd /tmp
/bin/wget -U "" http://hpkg.tv/hdrfoxt2/base/openssl_1.1.1.d-1_mipsel.opk
opkg install --force-reinstall openssl_1.1.1.d-1_mipsel.opk
opkg update
opkg install --force-reinstall webif jim
opkg upgrade

This gave a Segmentation fault error on --force-reinstall openssl_1.1.1.d-1_mipsel.opk

Not sure where to go next, guidance greatly appreciated. Thanks

If you mean reloading the firmware, there is no need for that.

Basically, your disk data has got into a scramble (even if there are no file system errors), and reinstalling stuff doesn't sort out the scramble. Rather than try to unpick what's happened, strip it out and start again (EDIT: but see post 3 for a potentially easier solution).

If you are happy to reformat your disk, just do that. You could run a system flush as well (apply as if a firmware update, except it doesn't update any firmware). Then the system will be in the raw state, as if you had just installed the CF for the first time, and accessing the WebIF address will come up with the installation page.

An alternative, avoiding reformatting the disk, is to use the Telnet menu to set RMA mode, reboot, then clear RMA. RMA mode erases the CF /mod folder on disk and sets a flag to prevent reinstallation of WebIF, so you have to clear the flag if you want to reinstall.

The above is total overkill and unnecessary.
Just select the "cli" option from the menu and enter this command:
diag ssl/fix
