WebIF malfunction

Black Hole

Black Hole

May contain traces of nut
I don't know if it's relevant, but I first noticed the problem after I crashed the TV Portal (confusing it by trying to exit before TV Portal had initialised) and had to do a hard reset to recover. The WebIF gave me the front page, but no Status... line and trying to access anything below it (eg the diagnostics page!) gives me:
Code: 
Error 500: Internal Server Error
CGI program sent malformed HTTP headers: []

I even tried inputting http://192.168.1.68/cgi-bin/restart.jim and got the same response. The handset responds properly, so I tried a warm start (with the appropriate wait) to no avail. And another cold boot.

I have tried "service stop mongoose / service start mongoose" to no effect, something is broken and it is beyond my knowledge to sort it out (other than reinstall from scratch).
 
No error log,
Code: 
humax# status
Runtime Error: /mod/bin/status:3: failed to load file "/mod/lib/jim/cgi.tcl": Invalid argument
Can't load package cgi
at file "/mod/bin/status", line 3
 
Code: 
humax# ls -l /mod/lib/jim
?--------x 65534 24576    53687091 2155906180 Apr  4  1970 cgi.tcl
-rw-r--r--    1 root    root          3438 Jun  3  2011 oo.tcl
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root    root        11004 Jan 22  2012 sqlite3.so
So what's happened here then?
 
Loads of errors, status is working again but nothing else on the WebIF (same message). I think the repairs knackered a load of files (I wonder how my recordings are?).

What's the next step - complete reinstall?
 
You could try just reinstalling the jim-cgi package but if there many files referenced in the fix-disk listing you may be better of reinstalling everything. If it is just a small number of files then the relevant packages could be reinstalled.
 
I don't have the list any more, but I don't remember file names being listed, it was all about inodes, blocks, and lost+found.
 
I was wrong, status isn't working after all (it was a hang-over in the cache).

I tried "opkg install --force-reinstall webif" but it didn't change anything. I'm not sure if it takes care of dependencies as well.

What I would like to do is save everything off and reformat the drive, but I don't have that sort of time at the moment.
 
Does the /mod/lib/jim directory look sensible now?
Code: 
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          2682 Jan  8  2012 cgi.tcl
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          3438 Jun  3  2011 oo.tcl
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root         11004 Jan 22  2012 sqlite3.so
If not, have you tried reinstalling jim-cgi as mentioned above?
 
I think it would be a good idea to run the diskattr diagnostic. It may have been a disk fault in one area of the disk which caused these problems.
 
cgi.tcl seems to have disappeared in a fix-disk clean up. I had hoped reinstalling webif would also reinstall dependencies, obviously not. Force reinstall jim-cgi does seem to have brought things back to normal (at first sight).

As far as diskattr goes, compare this (Oct 16):

Disk looks fine, just filesystem corruption then.. based on the listing of that directory before the filesystem check that file was corrupt so start by reinstalling that package then see how it looks.
