Just wanted to chime and say thank you to all who have been discussing the recently issues with PIA VPN and Deluge. I noticed today that my Sonarr+Deluge setup had not been working for a couple weeks (I ran out of new content to watch in Plex). After reading around 15 pages of posts on this matter here, I was able to try a dozen different variables within Deluge and my PIA OpenVPN files until one combo finally worked. I reused my old ca-toronto OVPN file with new versions of the PEM/Cert files and disabled port forwarding in the Deluge config. That was the magic solution that worked for me. I also learned about Jackett today and got that implemented within minutes. Thank you again to everyone who posted info about this issue. It was much appreciated!

Similar experience for me as well. It’s been running fine for well over a year now and all of a sudden in the last several weeks it’s been failing all around. Sonarr complains that it can’t reach any indexer, Deluge or even ping test to sonarr.tv. I can’t seem to determine what caused this. Nothing has changed on my network for some time now. Did you ever resolve it?

Yeah, I unplugged it and plugged it back in, power and SATA. It didn't do anything. I'll have to start the RMA process. Thank you very much.

Took me a while to get this done but I finally did it. While rebooting it was showing some error about one of the disks. I've attached the new diag bundle. I think I heard one of the disks making a clicking sound while rebooting. I'm thinking the disk has failed. ata1: link is slow to respond ata1: COMRESET failed (errno=-16) ata1:.00 failed to IDENTIFY Can you or anyone please help me confirm? Thank you very much. watchtower-diagnostics-20180618-2247.zip watchtower-diagnostics-20180618-2303.zip

Hi All, I received an alert that one of my data disks was disabled. I see a red X next to it and a few errors in the log that I can't make sense of. Was hoping someone could lend some assistance. I've attached the diagnostics log and the system log. Is this enough? I'm running UnRaid 6.4.1. The SMART dashboard shows a red X under "FAULTY" for this disk. Thank you so much for any assistance that you can provide. watchtower-diagnostics-20180528-1921.zip watchtower-syslog-20180528-1921.zip

Fingers crossed that it is indeed the RAM module.

I really hope it's not the motherboard. That would be the most pain in the ass part to replace. But knowing my luck.... I'm going to start testing RAM now. I have to research a new power supply in the meantime as well. Not sure if my current PSU is overkill or just right at 450W ~87% efficiency. The Question is: How many Disks are in your Server and have you already measured the Power-Input (with a Power-Meter)? As orientation, my Sys needs a peek power of 200W during Boot - measured over a Power-Meter on the 220V-Input. Take care about the SATA-Connectors on the PSU - thats the most important point. It is the +12V buss that is the worry. You want a single rail supply for unRAID because the only use for 12V in a server is the disk drives. When looking at your old supply, you have to be very careful about the ampere ratings on the various voltage busses. I have seen 450W supplies that when you total up the wattage for the various busses comes out well over 500W! Plus, if you do exceed the wattage any of the busses, often the entire supply will shutdown. When (and if) you start to look at PS, look for quality and reliability (negative user reviews are a good source of information here) rather than price. A PS is usually the only piece of hardware that you can use in your next major upgrade! I'm eyeing the SeaSonic G Series SSR-550RM PSU as replacement unit. It's one of the more economical solutions available to me here in Canada with a single rail 12V while being a good quality unit from what I can ascertain. As it stands, I pulled one of my DIMM units (4GB of 8GB total) and my server has been online all day so far. The UI is faster, my APC UPS metrics within Unraid shows the server using less power than it did last night which is odd based on the UPS load rating. My parity check is about 1.5hrs away from completing. Once that is done, I'll mount the disks and attempt normal operations again and see how it behaves. I'll start spec'ing out replacement RAM modules as well since now that I can run VMs within Unraid, I'll want to take advantage of that.

I have 3x Seagate 1TB 7200RPM disks, 2x Western Digital Red 3TB disks and 1x Western Digital Blue for the Cache Disk. I've never measured the input before.

That's my guess as well. Any tips for trying to narrow it down? Start replacing parts, RAM should be the easiest if you have more than one DIMM, try one at a time. I'll definitely start with that. Thank you.

After searching this forum to see if anyone else was experiencing a similar issue, I did happen to check if the CPU fan was working. It is working fine and the CPU temp is around 40-42 Celsius during the time I was monitoring it.

Hi All, I've been running Unraid 5.0.3 for a very long time now. Today I went to connect to one of my SMB shares and notice it wouldn't connect. The Unraid box was not pingable either. I turned on the monitor at the console and saw it was sitting at my BIOS' "You're settings have been reset" screen. I went into the BIOS, set the time, ensured the boot sequence was correct, saved and restarted. Each time the server boots into Unraid, it randomly freezes up or the whole system restarts. I've tried the following: 1. Performed a Checkdisk on my USB key in another PC. Windows found errors and corrected them. - NO CHANGE, ISSUES STILL PERSIST 2. Upgraded from 5.0.3 to 6.2.4. - NO CHANGES, ISSUES STILL PERSIST 3. Tried running MemTest, it froze after running for 24 minutes - NO CHANGES, ISSUES STILL PERSIST I've run out of options to try. I keep trying to run a Parity Check upon getting back into the WebUI but the system keeps failing before it can even reach 10%. I have 4 data disks, 1 parity and 1 cache disk. I can't capture a System Log because the system freezes up and becomes completely non-responsive. I did keep refreshing the log and eventually just copied the info to a text file (see attached). When the system freezes, sometimes it locks up at the login prompt, other times it starts rapidly cycling strings of text that I can't make out on the display. The only thing I was able to read was something along the lines of "i2c_core ahci libahci r8168". Sometimes the display showed horizontal lines in rainbow colours. I have my Unraid server attached to an APC UPS at all times. I did not experience any power outages recently. My specs are as follows: -MSI H77MA-G43 Motherboard (w/onboard NIC and Graphics) -Intel i3-2120 CPU -8GB GSkill Sniper 1.25v RAM -Antec Neo-ECO 450w PSU I'm hoping someone can help shed some light on what's wrong with it. I've had it running for years without issue. I appreciate any and all responses. Thank you. unraid_log_nov13.txt

Thanks again everyone! That simple oversight was causing all the headaches. I woke up this morning and tested XBMC and all the data was still in tact! I appreciate all of your help.

Awesome, I'll give this a try tonight and report back! I really hope it is something as simple as this. Thank you all so much! I appreciate your time.
