Error when trying to load the Networks page under System

I get notifications of failed diagnostics in Plinth. There are 2 errors. One concerns Name Services not upgrading has just been reported on Salsa. The other is about Networks, and says Client not yet ready.

If one goes to System page and clicks on Networks, one gets the following “Error loading page” message:

which expands to the following message when one clicks on Details:

Error loading page. [Details](https://thisis.fbx.one/plinth/sys/#)
