Description

Many times on a large system a status output cannot be taken because displaying things like a large state table can exhaust the php memory.

It has been suggested to add a flag such as ?archiveonly=true to status.php to suppress the display of the contents and only create the tarball for download.

Thanks!

Status changed from New to Feedback
Target version set to 48
% Done changed from 0 to 100

Implemented this and some other changes.

Rewrites the command output so it is first written to files, then read through line-by-line to PHP. Should be much more efficient and consume less memory, making the previously "too large" commands viable.
Increase verboseness of ifconfig output, add supported media
Add "Listen Queues" output
Wording fixes
Script can now be run from the console to create and save an archive only: php /usr/local/www/status.php
New parameter: archiveonly
When present, output is suppressed. Creates tgz which can be downloaded. (This is always the behavior when run at the console)
New parameter: nocleanup
When present, the individual status output .txt files are not removed from
/tmp/status_output/ before exiting.

Parameters can also be used from the console, for example: php /usr/local/www/status.php 'nocleanup=true'

When I issue this command I get html code in std out and archive as output.

[2.4.5-DEVELOPMENT][root@pfSense.localdomain]/tmp: php /usr/local/www/status.php

That snapshot was before this commit. The newest snapshot should have it, if you update and try it again, it should work. It works for me here on this snapshot:
