[6.10] Stale Configuration

• For all intents and purposes, the system is "working".
• All my containers are working in this configuration when accessing their web page addresses.
• Dashboard tab shows everything is working.
• I made sure to update Firefox and clear cache. Still shows stale configuration in Main tab.
• Container page still shows array must be started banner over running containers.
• Shares tab has array must be started banner but shares appear and are accessible on my windows network.

As a test, please boot in 'safe mode' and see if issue still occurs.  If so, there is a misbehaving plugin.

Safe mode results. Same as other RCs.

 

Thank you.

Update:

Tried again...since RC4, this popup in my browser occurs when the array starts.

 

If I hit resend, it borks the main page. If I hit cancel, everything is normal.

 

No idea what the reason for the popup is.

 

Changed Status to Open

Changed Priority to Minor

Updated to 6.10.1 and I didn't get the browser popup...everything seems to be working for now.

Just upgraded to 6.10.1 and had the same thing happen. Reverted to 6.9.2 and all is well.

 

All plugins and dockers are fully up to date. No VMs running. Array is set to not autostart, and the exact behaviour detailed by the OP is replicated. Will be staying on 6.9.2 for now.

Popup returned so issue still happening. Anytime the popup occurs, I hit cancel. Seems to keep everything normal.

I am seeing the same behavior it seems to occur if I use Firefox to do the initial access of the unRAID dashboard after a server restart.  I was able to avoid the popup by using Microsoft Edge Version 101.0.1210.53 (Official build) (64-bit) to initially access the dashboard after a reboot.  Now no popup on Firefox or Edge and all appears to be normal.

No popup all is normal

Agreed - same here. Upgraded and accessed via Edge and it's working as advertised. Seems to be a Firefox bug that slipped through? Presumably (and not unreasonably) everyone used Chromium-based browsers to test :)

I'm also using Firefox and occasionally seeing the Resend requestor in the browser when starting the array on both of my servers. Both are updated to 6.10.3 stable. It starts fine but when the page reloads at the end of the startup procedure, I get the requestor in the attached pic. If I click Resend, it tries to start the array again. Sometimes it locks up the webgui, some times it continues normally. If I click Cancel it's always started fine. I've cleared browser cache and cookies and tried a private tab in Firefox, but it doesn't always happen so it's been hard to validate. Any thoughts on other ways to diagnose the cause and apply a fix? I've been reminded to take a look at the browser console next time it occurs.

I just updated from 6.9.2 to 6.10.3 directly, and using Firefox, I noticed the same issue mentioned by others above. I get that popup to resend every time, and not knowing about this issue (I just found this thread), I would simply press Resend, which would result in the stale config issue. As others mentioned, everything seems to work (dockers start, etc.), except that my main page shows unmounted disks. 🤔

I got the same problem using Firefox after updating to 6.10.3. Everything is working fine, but all browser show "stale configuration" and a messed up "main" tab.

 

I would like to shut down the array and restart it via Chrome. However the messed up "main" tab doesnt give me the option to shut down the array. Any tips on how to proceed? Google search on "how to stop the array via CLI" gave me outdated results and Im hesitant using them.

'restart' at a cli.

Still have this issue with 6.11

For now, what I do on my side is whenever getting the popup, I press Cancel instead of Ok, and I do not get any stale configuration. It can be a bit annoying though, because if I do it quick without thinking, I will end up with the stale config.

I only clicked ok to see if 6.11 fixed it. But yes, I will continue to cancel the popup. I'll have to try the 'restart' at cli method to see if it fixes the stale configuration.

Last time the stale config happened to me (it's been a while so my memory might play tricks on me), I remember just rebooting with from command line using this command:

 

powerdown -r

 

and as far as I remember, it came back normally. Don't hesitate to correct me in the event I'm saying nonsense. 🙂

 

Best of luck. 🤞

Is this still an issue? I am in 6.11.1 and I got this stale issue twice, with Safari and Firefox. What's going one here?  Reboot fixed the problem.  I got it when I stopped the array to make some changes and had to restart the array.

I just had this issue too. Upgraded from 6.9.2 to 6.11.1 (long overdue, i know). I rebooted the NAS and used a clean browser (in my case freshly installed Brave) and that worked. Thanks to this thread, i got a bit stressed for a bit

Still an issue for me, ever since 6.9.4. I think I was at 6.9.2 before .4 and it was fine.

I've never seen this before until 6.11.4 and now 6.11.5 and have the same plugins for a bit now. The newest plugin I installed was the "CA Mover Tuning" one, which per my logs I've had installed since 6.11.0-rc3 (August).

 

I do not have array auto start. When array comes up after upgrade, says config is good. I go to start array, and in firefox 107 it shows the resend prompt.

If you hit cancel, it works fine. If you hit resend, it puts the array in a 'stale configuration' state. Where you can only reboot/shutdown server.

Interestingly enough, I updated to .5 and didn't get the resend prompt...

Didn't get it when updated to .4 and was hopeful ; then updated to .5 and had it again. 🤷‍♂️

Running on FireFox with 6.11.5 and I have this issue....
