New install, Web GUI there but non responsive

Hi, I’ve got a new install that is giving me problems.
Hardware:
HP HomeMediaServer EX470 upgraded CPU to AMD LE1640 which is an Athlon64 processor
Boot disk is an 80gig Intel SATA SSD 2.5"
4 Gig of RAM
and (3) 2 Gig HDD data drives

it installed, was working, no data is on the system that I care about. I was able to access things fine via my home network. Attempted to copy a file to the SAMBA share and things locked up.

I am looking to use this as a second hardware backup to another NAS that I own to provide some backup redundancy as we all know shix happens.

Presently at RockStor 3.8.15-) on Linux 4.6.elrepo.x86_64
I just paid for a one year subscription to the updates

I can access the PC directly using the shell interface via a monitor on the PC and a keyboard plugged into it. It seems to be fully responsive. I can log in to root, and issue commands etc… although I don’t know much about what I’m doing.

I have logged in many times via the Web UI and it opens to the main dashboard screen. Once there it asks if I’d like to activate stable updates. I choose yes and it just sits with a spinning logo for many minutes until it ultimately gives me this error

Houston we have a problem.
Unknown internal error doing POST to /api/commands/update-check

Also If I attempt to make a change that I assume is committing a change (i.e. turn on a service or something like that) to a configuration database, the system becomes unresponsive from the GUI perspective and I can no longer get it to respond.
When this occurs, I am able to log in to root on the machine itself and execute a reboot. This enables the Web UI again but same occurs if I try to make a configuration change.

open to ideas, cant get anything to work. SAMBA service is off, It boots fine but then becomes unresponsive if I try to update or if I try to edit a service or setting.

Thanks, Dan
