reboot visual confusion

Open limetech opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

When Reboot is clicked, nothing seems to happen for a couple seconds and then we see a "REBOOT" page which is actually /reboot.htm with a count-up timer. Then eventually server does reboot and the Main page is displayed again. But in this case there are no device lines populated unless a manual refresh is done. Maybe would be better to confine the reboot progress in the same notification window for one thing?

I actually tried that before, but can't get the update messages to display when emhttp is called from rc.local_shutdown.

How to make the messages visible?

rc.local_shutdown executes a wget with the array stop command, but no output is shown.

Any ideas how to get around this?

@bergware, perhaps modify the wget call to output state arguments and parse those for a more responsive GUI.
