Upcoming moOde 9.0.0 (Bookworm)

Regarding the vanishing system config page

I was idly jumping among the various config pages (~pre4 on a Pi 4B) when I suddenly discovered I, too, couldn't access the page generated by sys-config.php. Yes, I had previously disabled the integrated WiFi adapter but I don't recall when in the sequence. The player also has an Ethernet connection.

Sifting through the session variables at /var/local/php/ I find this string (followed by roonbridge...)

Code:

ipaddress|a:1:{i:0;s:8:"10.0.0.4";}

Haven't had time to wander through the relevant new PHP functions, sorry. I wasn't expecting a compound construct. It's obvious to this untrained eye that s:8:"10,0,0,4" is the 8-character string of the DHCP-assigned Ethernet address of the integrated Ethernet adapter on this player. I suppose the zero-length integer is the unassigned WiFi address/adapter/something or other?

ETA - Ah, on the same player with another ~pre4 image and both WiFi and Ethernet adapters enabled and connected to my LAN, I see a more congenial

Code:

ipaddress|s:8:"10.0.0.5";

Hope this helps.

Kent
