The posible safety checks that could be implemented depends of what he did, he needs to explain it
But maybe he is doing something that is plain wrong and cant be prevented, dunno

You should explain in detail the modifications you are doing in the config, at this point it looks like either:
-You are doing some mistake
-The combination of settings you are using causes some kind of problem

Maybe is posible to add some "safety check" in webman to prevent that kind of problems (in other words, making it a bit more monkey-proof, no offense intended)
But for that you need to explain to aldo what you are doing exactly, or upload your config files to take a look at them

no offense taken

how i usually set up webman is as the following screenshots show
Captura de pantalla (67).png

thats literally how i used to setup webman up to 1.47.26

english isnt my native language but am going to try and explaind as best as i can

-when am running webman mod 1.47.26 or previous versions if the console freezes regardless if i have to hold the button down until the console turns off or pushing once is enough or i can turn it off from webman. webman mod will load just fine after hen is enabled

-when 1.47.27 and newer IF the console has frozen before in the maner i described in the previous point even if it was upgraded from a working 1.47.26 install IT WILL FREEZE after hen is enabled and it tries to load webman

example of this: after it was suggested to me to delete wmm temp files and config files 1.47.30 loaded just fine even after doing 2 or 3 full reboots from the HFW menu webman loaded correctly 3 times.
next i tried playing a game it froze loading (i think i opened webman on the browser 2 times unknowingly) i had to hold the power button down to shut down the console. next time i enabled hen console froze as webman was supposed to load tried that a couple of times same result.

used the empty boot plugins failsafe used multiman and decided to just delete wm_config.bin and sure enough next time hen was enabled webman loaded correctly but with the default settings as expected.

sometime later that evening or next day it blackscreened loading pkgi had to shut it off holding the power button, next time hen was enabled webam loaded correcly only difference from every other time with 1.47.27+ going a few months back was that I DIDNT CHANGE A SINGLE SETTI NG in webman whereas every other time i had changed most if not all that you can see on the screnshots

sorry for the caps i dont know how else to accentuate those points

You could try using a debug build of the HEN payload & capture the UDP output on PC.
It might be helpful to find out which thread crashes, when & there may even be some clues as to why a crash happens.

if you think that would be useful i could try that
 
Just to clarify a detail @Cosmic-R you are not modifying any config file in PC, right ? (with notepad, text editors, hex editors, or other means). All the configuration is made by using the standard webman dialogs ?
And you are not "recycling" any configuration file from previous webman instalaltions, right ?

no, nothing. no editing whatsoever of anything. all the settings changed were done through the webserver either from a pc or the ps3 itself
only thing that might be different in my ps3 than usual is that i set the np enviroment to null but i dont think that has anything to do with webman

and about recycling. i dont think if its recycling per se but i always either upgrade webamn installing it on top from the old one wich is when the config file stays or delete everything manually and do a fresh install like i had to do

also i went trough some of my older comments and and one point i had 1.47.28 upgrade working but then the console froze and it was back to sqaure one

so how i see it its like this in 1.47.27+
-upgarde works if the config file was generated before the console requiered a hard shut off due to freeze
-if you have changed much settings and the console freezes it will freeze at next hen enable
-if you didnt change any settings and it froze it seems you are safe
-if it freezes loading webman deleting the cofig file fixes it

and now for 1.47.26 and below
-doesnt seems to care about anything regardless of the nature of the freeze it will work just fine next boot

it almost seems as if webman or the ps3 knew it had frozen and or wasnt shut down properly because if it was file corruption i wouldve had the same issues in 1.47.26

sorry i wasnt paying much attention
but that one should be irrelevant since all content scan has to be done manually i honestly dont see how disabling it would work. because right now it is enabled and working because the console hasnt freezed... yet

crazy idea, but the freezes might be originating from this trying to connect to the net server anyway? i wouldn't rule out any possibility until i try it
 
well.

well, you do have a point. i will try to intentionally crash a game so that webman will freeze at next load. give me a few hours i will try some stuff

ok so
1st attempt: default webman settings plus netsrv game froze but was ablemto reset console from web server didnt ask for a filesystem restore, webman loaded just fine

2nd attempt: set up webman as i usually do froze game this time resetting console from webserver didnt work timed out connection. did a hard shut off. and as expected webman froze flashing green and yellow but it took a bit longer than usual it was ableo to load its xmb element usually it doesnt get to do that

3rd attempt: deleted the config file. set the config as it was before but this time have NETSRV#1 unchecked froze game web server was still responding was ablo to reset console from there. enabled hen and apparently was fine loaded its xmb element was able to go up once down once on xmb then it froze hen enabled webman loaded notification was still on. and console flashing green and yellow

oh yeah i forgot to mention when the console freezes and i have to do a hard shut off the syscon crashes ( i think) because the console will only turn on from the button on the console itself. from the controller it does nothing

am honeslty out of ideas @kadorna2 do you have some ?
am thinking photogui but i dont even know what thats for
 
hello @sandungas @aldostools sorry for bothering you two again
heres the config file that caused the console to freeze i copied it as is. changed it from defualt settings it works as it supposed to.
it only becomes a problem when it initally loads webman for some reason. i didnt change anything other than what can be done from the webserver no hex editing or notepad++ or anything

also that config ony seems to become a problem if the console froze and or wasnt shutdown properly

I cant help with this problem, i just wrote in this thread because i thought i could help you organize a bit your error reports, also because im a moderator and you have been writing about this problem in the forum since 2 months ago
I think is about time to solve this mistery :)
 
hello @aldostools sorry to bother you out of the blue but i think i found he reason why webman freezes at load its basically this option

had as it comes by default. set it as the image shows shut down the console, came back to it later and it froze at enable hen. tried again and it froze again some am pretty sure its that option set to lock psn that causes it to freeze
