[yubiuser]

From your debug log, there is no indication of an still existing warning log message. Did the deletion work before you created the debug log?

[jamieburchell]

Interesting, that particular entey has vanished from the list. However, there's a new entry about high load (I was running an apt upgrade, which installed a new kernel) and that cannot be deleted either. I just checked, and that is still there now.

[yubiuser]

Then please generate a new debug log

[jamieburchell]

Tried 3 times

[✗] There was an error uploading your debug log.

[yubiuser]

Change your host's upstream DNS server to an external one in /etc/resolv.conf and try again.

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 72 Feb 21 17:15 /etc/resolv.conf
   nameserver 127.0.0.1
   nameserver 10.37.9.1

[jamieburchell]

No difference. It's a 500 response each time

[yubiuser]

We're investigating. Seems like our server has issues with the current high load

[yubiuser]

Server is cleaned, please try again.

Confirmed the entry was present after generating the new token. Clicked delete and got the same error. Entry wouldn't delete. Kept clicking it, got the same amount of errors as clicks. Refreshed the page and the entry has now gone 🤷🏻‍♂️

[yubiuser]

There is no error logged in the debug log. How did you access the web interface? HTTP or HTTPS - just asking because on 443 you're running nginx.

Next time you see a log message, have a look in the browsers console (F12) if any error shows up when deleting the message.

[jamieburchell]

HTTP, port 80 on iOS Chrome. Homebridge web UI is on 443 and some other HTTP port.

I just forced a high load so I could get an entry in the log, used desktop Chrome with dev tools open (and cache disabled) and was able to delete the entry first time with no errors.

Perhaps an issue with iOS browsers?

[yubiuser]

Maybe, I'm unable to test because I don't own an iOS device.

[jamieburchell]

I can repro it every time on iOS. I just had it again and although I got an error that the entry couldn't be deleted, it was in fact gone after reloading the page.

[yubiuser]

Thanks for testing. Then it seems like an iOS browser issue.

[jfb-pihole]

Is this issue present with every IOS browser, or only with Chrome for IOS?

[jamieburchell]

The issue is present in Safari. I need to confirm about Chrome (the shortcut I use doesn't actually state which browser it uses and I had assumed Chrome since that's my default). Right now every page load of the web UI is taking about 30 seconds in Chrome but in Safari is almost instant. No idea why, tried in incognito too.

[yubiuser]

Ok, I have a wild guess that we just fixed an issue which could cause what you are seeing.
If you want to try it, please run

sudo pihole checkout ftl development

And check if the issue persists

[jamieburchell]

Before I do that, I just tested in Chrome iOS and an entry I had in the log deleted successfully (no error). Note that Safari on iOS was causing the error on delete.

However, in Chrome on iOS every time I browse to a link within the UI it takes about 20-30 seconds to render the page.

[jamieburchell]

Ok, I have a wild guess that we just fixed an issue which could cause what you are seeing. If you want to try it, please run

sudo pihole checkout ftl development

And check if the issue persists

🥳 Deleting entries on Safari iOS works as expected using the ftl dev branch

[yubiuser]

Thanks for the feedback.
Once a new FTL release is published, you should go back on track with

sudo pihole checkout ftl master
