Unifi-Controller does not properly start after router reboot

[mkono87]

After rebooting opnsense the unifi controller does not start up. I have tried stopping it and starting it but when I go to 8443 I just get a 404 error. So Im stuck now without the controller not sure what to do at this point. Any ideas?

I have been able to access the controller via an SSH port-forwarding: ssh -p 1022 -L 8443:localhost:8443 -L 8080:localhost:8080 root@<your-opensense>

Beyond that I have not been able to access the Unifi controller. I can cURL https://<LAN IP>:8443 from the OPNsense shell but not from the LAN network. The firewall allows traffic to flow between local networks.

Maybe you manage Networks in controller same as LAN and did a mistake?

I didn't intend to hijack this thread and instead wanted to post a way for people to verify if the controller is indeed not running.

Of course, one has to add a rule to allow traffic to the interface address, one wants to connect to the Unifi controller on :)
