issue with Jails since i installed Intel NIC

[sqwob]

I can't get my jails to start without errors being thrown like below, since i installed my INTEL NIC next to the Onboard Realtek NIC. The last has been disabled now so the system only sees one NIC.

This also causes an error in the freenas UI:
- plugins are indicated to be off
- plugin service is off after boot, and fails to turn on (visually), the loading bar just stays visible and nothing happens. When i check in my browser the pl
, yet at the same time, the plugins are up and running (i can browse to them, it's just in the FreeNas ui that i get issues...)



All help is very much appreciated!
Kind regards
Rik

That error should be harmless, it is only for IPv6.

Paste:

ifconfig -a
netstat -rn
ifconfig `jls jid` ifconfig -a

i'll post the feedback from those commands when i'm back home tonight. It's possible that the errors are not relevant... that keeps the question open though why the ui doesn't show the plugin icons anymore, and the menu's for starting the plugins don't indicate they are already running

thanks for the input!

Sorry I meant jexec `jls jid` ifconfig -a

Well, I dont really see any issue.

Did you change the ips by any chance?

Reinstalling a plugin _might_ help.

I disabled the builtin realtek nic, and gave the INTEL nic the old ip of the realtek NIC. To my suprise (i just checked it again now) I notice that the plugins appear in the menu's again and the "active plugins" indication is correct again!

guess my issue was caused by the ip changes, and fixed by changing it back to the old ip on the new NIC...

Thanks for your efforts!
