velkrosmaak Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 My pineapple's UI, flashed just now, goes extremely crazy sometimes, in that every time the front Status page refreshes, it appends some of the text boxes from the Config page (namely the ngrep settings) to the bottom of the status page. This makes for an extremely messy and slow pineapple, and I'm just not sure in general if its functioning correctly. Have tried clearing pineapple cache, clearing browser cache, rebooting pineapple, and even factory resetting the pineapple. Having thought I bricked my AP51 after factory resetting, I had to re-flash the firmware again (is that normal, to have to reflash after a factory reset?!) I would post a screenshot, but the machine that the pineapple is on can't get online (am providing internet access to pineapple via LAN) Any tips? Thanks! PS: Tried in Firefox and Chrome - both same results. Quote
Mr-Protocol Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 You can screenshot and put the pictures on a usb drive or send them up later so we can visually see what is happening. Even better would be to screen cap and upload the video later after testing. Quote
velkrosmaak Posted February 8, 2012 Author Posted February 8, 2012 Here's a screenshot of what the page looked like: http://imgur.com/QYcDN It's basically this repeated all the way down, with the usual options at the top of the page. Just to clarify - having to reflash after doing a factory reset is normal? I may have just been impatient with it after the factory reset... Quote
velkrosmaak Posted February 9, 2012 Author Posted February 9, 2012 Had another go on a box at home and same results. Sadly the host machine isn't up to recording video, but these screens should hopefully give you the gist of what's going on. I don't know if this is coincidence, but this seems to happen after uncommenting the ngrep password capturing line. Have seen some posts mentioning a bug in ngrep, but not sure if that applies to this version of the pineapple firmware? Quote
Whistle Master Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 I had the same problem just after flashing to v2.1. See my post here. Quote
velkrosmaak Posted February 10, 2012 Author Posted February 10, 2012 Did you find a fix for this Whistle Master? Glad to know I'm not on my own Quote
hfam Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) Did you find a fix for this Whistle Master? Glad to know I'm not on my own Have either of you tried a different flavor browser? I can see OP is using Chrome. I've not had this issue with Firefox (or on the rare occasion I've fired it up, IE) on any version of the firmware. Install Firefox and see if that doesn't clear things up. I'd bet money it's a Chrome issue, but then again, I've been known to lose a few bets. :) Worth a shot. Good luck fellas. ETA: didn't notice the additional shots of FF....I'm out of ideas. :( Sorry. Edited February 10, 2012 by hfam Quote
velkrosmaak Posted February 10, 2012 Author Posted February 10, 2012 Also: Note the PS in the first post :) Thanks for your help though! I may have to resort to trying IE. Though if it's W3c valid HTML I don't know why it doesn't render properly in any of them really... Quote
Whistle Master Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Did you find a fix for this Whistle Master? Glad to know I'm not on my own I flashed to fw v2.1.2 and I didn't have the problem again for the moment. I'm using FF. Quote
