Web GUI hangs

Not entirely sure what caused this unfortunately, however when killing a few unrelated processes it seemed to stop the GUI from working. I thought restarting the machine would help but it didn't, and now all my VMs are not working :( The browser just hangs, it loads endlessly. I have cleared cache, tried different browser and tried different computer with no luck.

Restarting services such as pveproxy, pvecluster doesn't do anything. I really don't want to resort to reinstalling yet. Running version 3.4 (I do plan to upgrade soon - but now I can't with the GUI not working so I really urgently need it fixed). I tried running 'pveproxy start --debug' and this doesn't show any messages at all, it just hangs there. Not sure which log files to open or look at, but I really am desperate for help now after trying everything I could possibly think of!

Is there a way for me to start the VMs from SSH in the meantime whilst this issue is being fixed?
EDIT: Found out it was 'qm start <ID>'. This isn't so worrying now that I can start the VMs from the SSH - but I still really need to fix this web GUI issue!

Thanks everyone for any help!

looks ok.

maybe you just have to clean your browser cache?
 
I have cleared cache, tried different browser and tried different computer with no luck.

Perhaps I could PM the link to you if you would like to test it?

If it helps, sometimes the site will go to 'ERR_CONNECTION_RESET' on Chrome even though it still hangs, but just says 'This page cannot be displayed' on Internet Explorer.

Bump, any help really would be grateful, even if I have to pay for it. I really don't want to have to resort to re-installing
 
One last bump in hope I can get some help. WILL PAY!

Otherwise I will have to re-install
