  1. hmm that looks like a big fat no then, unless you want to go paying extra money for a NAT firewall :-(

     

    https://support.purevpn.com/how-to-get-ports-opened

     

    my advise, dump purevpn and go airvpn or pia.

     

    Thanks, this fixed the issue! Torrents are also uploading, does this mean the incoming port works? Speeds are 300-600 kbps (on popular torrents) which is nothing compared to the 14 MB/s I get using newsgroups. Maybe I'll try PIA for a month and see if speeds improve.

     

    Thank you very much!

     

    [edit]

    I'm getting about 7 MB/s with PIA :). Too bad about the remaining 4 months @ PureVPN though ;)

  2. It sounds like the route (I assume in iptables) that the script is trying to add is failing to add and as binhex mentioned if the VPN connection fails this docker will not download anything as a protection measure for the user so you aren't downloading anything without the protection of the VPN.

    Yes, this is what I gathered from the error in the log. Is it possible to somehow get some more debugging info? I enabled debug in the settings hoping I would get a more verbose log, but nothing changed. I also tried attaching to the Docker container, but I cannot get a terminal.

  3. Hi!

     

    Thanks for this great docker container! It installed correctly and after tweaking the config (and finding the correct credentials for my PureVPN provider) the container starts and I can access the Deluge webui.

     

    However, I cannot get Deluge to download torrents. They are stuck at 0% and 0.0 kbps. When I look at the log I find these lines suspect, but don't know how to fix it.

    Any suggestions?

  4. I read that Unassigned Devices thread. Some good stuff in there. The Docker community is amazing.

     

    So I have bought:

     

    2 * StarTech USB3S2SAT3CB USB 3.0 to 2.5" SATA III Hard Drive Adapter Cable w/ UASP (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812400542)

    1 * Lian Li UC-01 USB 3.0 to 20-pin Adapter (http://www.lian-li.com/en/dt_portfolio/uc-01/)

     

    I will post back how I get on.

     

    Have you got anything working since then? I'm interested in using a similar setup just for a cache disk, so I can have all my 6 SATA ports for array disks.

  5. Could it be that these plugins are somehow incompatible with unRAID 6.2 (beta21)? Whatever I try, I keep getting 'Install failed: install file missing' for the CouchPotato plugin, and 'MediaInfo Version:NOT WORKING' for Sonarr. I've removed the '/mnt/cache/.PhAzE-Common/', rebooted, uninstalled the plugin, all multiple times. NZBGet is working though...

    It's possible, I have only tested these on versions up to 6.1.9.

    Alright, thanks! I found that I had to manually install all the packages from your dependencies archive. After this Couchpotato would install nicely, but Sonarr also required two files for Mediainfo to be copied and symlinked into /usr/lib64

  7. I just want to add that with the direct rsync method and a unRAID v6.2 (b20) setup without a parity disk I get write speeds of up to 95 MB/s from another unRAID server. So this is really sweet if you're migrating or backing up a unRAID server to another one. Adding parity will probably have an impact on the write speeds, but with the new Turbo Write option this maybe minimal.

  8. Guys,

     

    I can get a Nexus Edge pretty cheap. It has 9 5.25" bays, but they are tool-less, meaning I will have to attach those sliders to the harddisk bays. Does any one know if that will work? In general, or specific to this case.

     

    I got those ridiculously cheap Norco 5-in-3 non-hotswapping bays, which where a pita to mount in my Lian Li PC-A17 case.

  9. I'm not sure if Limetech is sticking to the definitions of beta and release candidates. When in beta, you can add/remove/change functionality in software, that's what beta's are for. But once RC-status has been reached, you should only fix bugs, and leave new and/or updated functionality to a new release.

     

    I really think it's better if 5.0 would go final, and push all other things to 5.1+. It's been a long time coming....

  10. but I have done some testing on a new hackintosh I built.  The new hack doesn't have my credentials saved for the AFP share so it connects as guest.  When connecting as "Guest", clicking on my unRAID server on the Finder sidebar gives me an instantaneous view of my shares.  It's exactly what it should be like!

     

    However, when I login with my account ('redfive') on my MacBook Pro, it takes at least a minute to list those same shares.  I can only assume it's because it's checking file permissions against my account and when I connect as guest it doesn't?  

     

    What happens when you select the share in the Finder sidebar is that all the hard disks will spin up (maybe to check permissions, dunno..). As long as the drives are all spun up, access to the share will be instantaneous.

     

    I'm not sure if Tom will be able to fix this, as the Netatalk daemon performs this check, not unRAID.

    Have you tried Cache_Dirs on your unraid and see if this still holds true?

    I'd hate to spin up 20 disks to find one file.

     

    Yep, cache_dirs is running and works perfectly for Samba shares.

  12.  

    I would be extremely surprised if anyone would be running them 24/7 given even my lowest power attempts draws at least 40W with my drives shut down, and I don't have additional cards!

     

    S3 Sleep working perfectly here.

     

    My server is on 24/7 along with my desktop since the torrent client is on my PC. If the torrent client isn't running everything is sleeping.

     

    You do know that you can install a Torrent client on unRAID, right?

  13. How about vibration from the hard drives? Do the Scythe stabilizers do their work properly?

     

    The case seems really flimsy, so every vibration from the hard drives will likely result in resonance.

     

    Like any structure, it looks flimsy if you pull it apart, as I did. So does a building...  ;D

     

    The structural stability comes from the....structure! No, no vibration. The thing is rock solid. Bolt 4 hard drives to the steel Scythe stabilisers, bolt the steel to the steel chassis with huge rubber grommets in between = solid and no vibration.

     

    Thanks! It pains me to replace my Lian Li PC-A17 case with this one, but dammit! I have storage needs too...  ;D

  14. All I did was replace the bzroot and bzimage files. If only I shoulda...  ::)

     

    I don't mind rebuilding parity, but this is a good reminder to not be so quick and stupid with upgrading. I'll try and downgrade first to b4, see if the config is valid again

     

    POST SYSLOG FIRST!  Let me know if you need directions.

     

    There you go!

     

    If you've lost your disk configuration, safest way to proceed is as follows:

     

    1. Go to Utils and click 'New config'.  Check the 'Yes I want to do this' box, then click Apply.

    2. Go to Main and start assigning your drives.  Do not assign Parity.  Whichever drive you think is Parity, just don't assign.

    3. Now you have all your data disks and cache disk assigned, and they all have a blue dot - that's ok (and Parity is set to "unassigned"). Click Start and array will start and attempt to mount all the data drives.

    4. If any disk did not mount (that is, appears 'unformatted'), well you have a problem: perhaps that is the actual parity disk?

    5. You can spot check the files on the disks to assure yourself everything looks good.

    6. Now Stop array and assign your Parity disk.

    7. Click Start and you should see a parity sync start up.

     

    Variations on the theme:

    a) Suppose you don't know which physical disk is Parity?  In this case assign all your hard drives to data disk slots (do NOT assign a Parity disk).  Click Start and the one that comes up 'unformatted' is your parity disk (now you know which one it is).  Repeat steps above except at step 3 now you know which is Parity so go ahead and assign it.

     

    b) Suppose you lost the config, but you know that Parity is valid, so you want to skip the lengthy re-sync. In this case, once you know which disk is Parity, and you have it and all other disks assigned, just prior to clicking the 'Start' button you can type this command in a telnet window:

     

    mdcmd set invalidslot 99

     

    Now click Start (don't do a refresh between typing this command clicking Start or else command will have no effect).

     

    What this does is tell the driver that none of the array drives are invalid, and hence won't start a sync (normally Parity is marked invalid when there's been a "New Config").

     

    Make sense?

     

    Thanks, Tom! Although I tried the command to prevent the parity sync, it's currently doing just that. Too bad, but at least all my drives and shares now show up again.

     

    Strange thing, though, is that permissions where all messed up, so some folders showed up empty. Even files and folders I deleted last week suddenly re-appeared. Isn't that something....

     

    Edit: even files deleted months ago! WOW! It's like frikkin' time machine! :P

    POST SYSLOG FIRST!  Let me know if you need directions.

     

    There you go!

  16. You should definitely capture and post a syslog.  That is first step.

     

    Describe any steps you took doing the upgrade (did you delete any files on the config directory?)

     

    Did you make a backup of your flash config directory before updating?  If so, you might want to restore it and downgrade to your prior version and see if the array is "whole" there.

     

    If you can, don't start the array and wait for Tom to respond.  He may have some commands or information he needs from you.

     

    If you add your other disks to the array as new disks and start the array, unRAID will go into a long "zero them out" process and array will be offline.  You definitely don't want to do that.

     

    You could try the "trust" procedure to put the array back together.  Look it up in the Wiki.  It is supposedly fixed in this version, but not 100% sure.  It is not showing in the release notes.

     

    The other option, if you can't wait, it to run initconfig and redefine the array.  You will be without parity protection until parity is rebuilt.
