  1. for anyone that is having issues with the init-mongo.js file/path (it was giving me issues that I was too lazy to troubleshoot), I opted to instead create the mongodb container and then manually create the two dbs and users within and then it worked for me. Once you're within the console of the mongodb container you can type mongosh and then: test> use unifi switched to db unifi unifi> db.createUser({ user: "unifi", pwd: "enter-your-pw", roles: [ { role: "dbOwner", db: "unifi" } ] }) { ok: 1 } test> use unifi_stat switched to db unifi_stat unifi> db.createUser({ user: "unifi", pwd: "enter-your-pw", roles: [ { role: "dbOwner", db: "unifi_stat" } ] }) { ok: 1 }
  2. Anyone have an example DVDrip.sh ? I'd like to modify some settings for how the mkvs get encoded, but don't know how write this file from scratch. I've used rix1337/docker-ripper:latest & rix1337/docker-ripper:manual-latest I've jumped in the container and searched for the file, and although I can find abcdef.conf in /ripper I can't seem to find DVDRip.sh.
  3. man and manpages would be great. I'm not sure why documentation was ever omitted; perhaps memory? but the days of being worried about a few megs of text files in memory are over, so nerd pack to the rescue. https://pkgs.org/download/man-db https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/man-db/ Thanks for all the work on this project; makes unraid so much better.
  4. I had a similar thing happen to me about 10 years ago and after spending hours on it, someone on this board said "re-seat the card." I unplugged the card from the pci slot, re-inserted it, and the mb detected it again, thus unraid saw the drives, and fixed my problem. Hopefully you got it figured out already though.
  5. Looking for any recommendations on a motherboard that supports intel 10th/11th gen processors, quadro p2000 on a dedicated pci 3.0 (not shared or downgraded when some other slot gets used), 2 m.2 full width drives, and preferably 3 other pci slots that could handle HBA cards that will have 8 drives on each (spinning rust), and up to 128gb of ram. It's that fourth pci slot that I'm having trouble with, otherwise this one would be perfect: Gigabyte Z590 AORUS ULTRA LGA 1200 Another option would be for me to sell my 3 sas9340-8i cards and buy 2 cards that support 12 drives each; or find a board with at least 10 on board sata ports (array is 24 drives + 2 cache + 2 other drives outside array that I want to use as zfs block storage), but before I do that, I thought I'd ask here. Budget is $300ish, but that can go up if needed. Nate
  6. What about taking a new usb thumbdrive, putting the unraid trial version on there, and just seeing if it boots. If it does and you're not getting the errors, then something is probably corrupt with your thumb drive. I'd recommend copying the files off of it now while you can so that hopefully your config is saved. Maybe then you could copy your config files onto the new usb thumbdrive (instructions on how updates used to be done might help here) and if it works, then you would just need to share your new guid on the thumbdrive with unraid to get your license transferred over. Someone else might have better troubleshooting steps though. Nate
  7. Thanks, this resolved it for me as well and is preferred over a reboot. I only had one container running (sabnzb) and now I have none (but docker is active), so I'm curious if it'll happen again under these conditions.
  8. Well shoot. How is the port supposed to get passed if you're using bridged mode? Or is that something that shouldn't be used now (I'm not using wireguard, so I thought it was still okay to use bridged mode)?
  9. For anyone who had port forwarding break after an update, my solution was to delete the Additional_ports variable and re-create it as a port type. Not sure why it switched during the update, but it's an easy fix.
  10. for anyone who wants to turn on the appending of file transfers (you'll get the error "Append/Restart not permitted, try again" you need to add the following to the config file proftpd.confg AllowStoreRestart on http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directives/linked/config_ref_AllowStoreRestart.html
  11. Appears to be looking for the tftp server and it's not seeing it. Did you remap ports? Don't remap port 69. Also, love this project. Having used a variety of things over the years for PXE (wds, fog), this is exactly what I've been looking for. Still trying to figure out how to actually use the local assets after they're pulled, but I'm only 15m in and haven't gone through all the documentation yet, so thanks for this.
  12. Thanks for the detailed reply, I really appreciate it as it seems like you've got some solid best practices for most people. I'm just tracking too much and I need to incorporate your exceptions of ignoring luxury items, perishables with a short lifetime, and if anything gets opened mark it as out of inventory. I've been trying to track all of that stuff and when I realized I was putting more time into inventory tracking than time it would take to run to the store to get another, I stopped using it. Thanks again.
  13. Just curious if you're still using this app and if so, how are you keeping inventory up to date? I love the idea of this, but am spending too much time to keep it up to date, so I'm thinking I might be overdoing it.
  14. In your volume mapping of the container map, try adding this: -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro I also saw someone call out this environmental variable for time (normally it's TZ): PAPERLESS_TIME_ZONE and the value of it for you will be something like: America/Los_Angeles I'm not sure if this environmental variable works though, so give it a shot or the volume mapping.
  15. +1. I've also got a synology NAS and their web UI file browser is way more advanced than I'm looking for with unraid. Currently I use screen sessions and rsync to move things around as MC seems to have a bug where it replicates and nests directories with the same name under that directory rather than merge them. Other than Krusader, anyone have a docker container they use & like?
  16. Ah, I think I figured it out. For some reason I can't seem to get any SMART data off of that drive. Even though the drive is spun up I can't run a short/extended test since it says it needs to be spun up. Refreshing, waiting, etc., don't seem to make a bit of difference and this works on other drives. My guess is the drive is 2tb and it's plugged into an old pci-x card (other drives plugged into the card are 1tb or less) and maybe that's causing issues (or maybe there is an issue with the drive). Anyways, this is probably due to my setup and not an issue with the plugin (unless someone has had this happen before). Thanks.
  17. Love this plugin, thank for making it as it replaces my hand written scribble/excel spreadsheet, however, I was having an issue where a drive was showing as historical even though it's currently installed, live, active, and working in the array. When I go to the report tab it's not in there, so I went ahead and deleted it from the historical section thinking that may refresh something, but now it's just completely gone. Any ideas? Not a big priority, just curious if I'm missing something obvious. I'm running unraid 6.6.6 and am thinking I may have juggled this drive around into another slot at some point and maybe that's why it's confused. Thanks, Nate
  18. That would be awesome as the quantity of information is wonderful, but it does feel like drinking from a fire hose.
  19. Thanks for the help on this one, for me the problem wasn't a VM or container or anything like that, but rather I had a terminal session I forgot I had open that was idling in location /mnt/disk6 and as soon as I moved out of /mnt it was unmount the shares successfully.
  20. start a vpn server on the same network as your unraid server and after you VPN into your network you are now on the network and can do whatever you want the same as you would if you were actually on that network: remote to other computers, bring up an http server, view local file shares, print to local printers, whatever. This is the "right" technical answer since you're using a secure protocol to solve the problem, however, there will be some bumps and googling needed along the way, so if you're not interested in that and just want it to work right now, just use an application solution that was already mentioned: teamviewer. Just make sure to enable multi factor authentication since if someone gets your password that means they get to control all the machines your login has permissions over.
  21. I'm converting the disk from reiserfs to xfs, and the drive has had the data moved off of it, but it's not a new drive or anything. The read errors may be because of something else; that drive was listed as not connected a week ago, although after a reboot it was detected. It passed short and long smart tests, but I took the opportunity to move all the data off of it in case it failed, although before I did that, I did rebuild the data and did a parity check and it had 0 errors on the disk and everything succeeded. After moving the data off and converting the disk to XFS I ran a parity check and it had 63 errors. Thinking these errors were due to alignment issues, I wrote 0s to the entire drive, formatted it again, the MBR is now aligned 4K, and after a parity check it has 0 errors and still passes a short and long smart test and I do not recall seeing any numbers increasing (e.g. pending sectors to be moved has been at 2 for awhile), so I was hoping the 63 errors were actually related to the alignment because that means it's resolved. As for the drive disappearing, I'm hoping I just need to re-seat the plug as I was inside the server case a month ago, but since the server is physically far away, I can't re-seat it right now to address that. I'm not too worried about it at the moment, but am sorry to hear that the errors probably weren't due partition table alignment.
  22. My jumper on the drive apparently wasn't set and I got 63 read errors on the drive after converting it to XFS while the aligned status showed unknown (hoping that was what the read errors were about), so now I'm going to write 0s to the partition table like you recommended with the following steps (please correct me if I'm wrong/missing something): fdisk-l /dev/sdX -- view the partition table before wiping it out: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX count=1 bs=512 -- write zeros to the current 512k partition table (or bs=4096 if you already had 4k and wanted that gone) fdisk -l /dev/sdX -- view the partition table after wiping it out (it should say doesn't contain a valid partition table) Partition tables are written into memory upon booting the machine, so a reboot is required for this change to take effect, that is, for your computer to realize that there is no partition table on that hard disk. After rebooting, start the array, format the drive, and then when you view the drive properties you should see 4K aligned rather than unknown.
  23. Yeah it is! The last time I did a major move years ago I think I was also lazy about copying so I just unassigned the parity drive until I had everything where I wanted it then re-built it. This time though, I'm opting to maintain parity during the process. Certainly not the best way, but I know myself and that I will get busy with other things and not look at the server for a few days/week and then I'll forget what step I was on or what I was even doing, so that's why I personal prefer moving in my specific scenario.
  24. upthetoon: If you can, I would try putting in a new cable and re-seating the card (if it's plugged into one) that it's in. Unlikely that's the cause in my opinion, but never hurts to cross "bad cable" off the list early on.
  25. Completely agree, but I'm not going thru a 29 page thread and I skim the procedures and am grateful they exist, but my data isn't that important and the procedures generally treat data like it's more important than mine, so knowing that mine isn't, I intentionally skip some steps (e.g. I move rather than copy data). I also prefer learning and while following a guided step tour is great for completing the task, it doesn't help me (personally) with learning. Using a tiny bit of guidance and then tripping and stumbling is the best way that I learn, so for my hobbies like (UnRaid), that's what I do. Not saying it's the best method, but that's just the way I'm wired. I do appreciate all the efforts everyone puts into this thing, and I completely get RTFM, but I also am aware of the risks I'm taking by cowboy'ing it a little bit and not following all the prescribed steps.
