  1. Everytime I try to add a user I get this error: [WARN] Config file owner does not match the user you are currently running The Lounge as. [WARN] To avoid issues, you should execute The Lounge commands under the same user. How do I fix this? I click on the Docker select Console, type "thelounge add username" and I get that error.
  2. Thanks, I missed that part of his description. I'm preclearing both cache SSDs now, hopefully that'll work. Edit: I didn't know you click on the Cache to change the format type BEFORE you start the array. All fixed now.
  3. I'm having the same issue as OP. I had 1 Cache formatted as XFS and wanted to add another drive for Cache Pool. I moved everything off the Cache. I select Pool of 2, assigned the second cache disk and it says Unmountable: No Pool uuid. Starting/stopping with unassigned/reassigned cache, swapped the cache disks around, same thing. So now I have Cache 1 and 2 assigned (with the error still), unassigned Parity 1, started, stopped, assigned it to Parity 2. Now it's rebuilding parity. So after parity is finished I can successfully click Format for the cache and it'll work correctly?
  4. Hello, I just recently moved and now can display my server cabinet in a room with a permanently on monitor/keyboard. Is there a dashboard type program that can run LOCALLY on the server and display system stats/etc on the monitor attached?
  5. It's sort of pointless to have it in RAID0 and use unRAID. What are you planning on using unRAID for?
  6. If you want to back up your unRAID server into an external hard drive, doesn't sound like your unRAID server is big at all..... Just plug it in and copy/paste the files or use SyncToy or some other copying program. Why have unRAID at all if all your stuff fits on an external drive? Just buy multiple externals and keep them in sync. Cheaper. An unRAID is already backed up. If a drive crashes, pop in a new drive and it will rebuild the lost data. (As long as you have your unRAID setup properly with a parity drive)
  7. Since you want to connect the two current units you want to the new one via USB 3.0, and you said you're more comfortable with Windows and software raid. Take a look at Windows 8 and its Drive Pool feature. Pretty much it's just Windows with a bunch of HDDs attached and using Drive Pool to combine all the HDDs. Then it can truly be a real HTPC and do whatever you want easily then hook up the USB 3.0 and copy backup your files. Play games, browse web, etc. No need to mess with Linux, virtualization, etc. I think people here are going overboard with their suggestions, using server motherboards and ecc memory.

  8. I'm trying to setup VSFTPD and whenever I reboot my unRAID server to have the changes apply, the vsftpd.conf file inside /etc/ reverts back to original. I'm a unix n00b. Any ideas? Or know of a command to restart the vsftpd service to apply the new settings I changed? I've googled commands but none work on unRAID.
  9. I'm using SimpleFeatures 1.0.11 with latest 5.04 unRAID, I've noticed a long time ago that "Display array totals" option of SimpleFeatures no longer work. Is everyone having the same issue?
  10. Also I noticed something. I have Plex on my unRAID to read /mnt/user/TV Shows/ I have a cache drive that runs at 2am. If I put a new episode of a show in there, it does NOT get auto scanned, even if I click refresh. I have to run the mover, then I have to use a DEEP SCAN REFRESH on the Plex for it to detect the new episode. Anyone else? Any ideas?
  11. I decided to finally install PMS onto my unRAID yesterday. Everything is successful! I do have a question though. After my PMS finished scanning everything, it's taking up 5GB of my Cache drive. Now, since the "Applications" share on the Cache drive is set to Cache Only, it's not protected. Is there a way to have it protected and not screw up when the mover starts or server rebooted? How is everyone else dealing with this? Takes a lot of time to fix the library when it had to rescan everything you know?
  12. Hello everyone, I did this and the regular unRAID web GUI is sorta messed up, anyone know how to fix (without losing all my normal unRAID settings?) Picture attached of the Settings menu, but now there's no headers, no page formatting, etc is on all pages. Thanks
  13. How to configure the FTP? I put my username on there, forwarded the port to my unraid box, i'm getting error 530 permission denied when trying to ftp in. Ok it worked with putting 1 user as ftp user, how to put more than 1 user/username? seperating names with comma doesn't work.
  14. I'm a total linux noob, i have the latest unraid 5.0RC5 installed and also unmenu installed. I just installed simplefeatures with the command installplg /boot/config/plugins/simplefeatures_webserver.plg and even rebooted. Now, how do I access and run SimpleFeatures? Thank You. EDIT: ah crap, i installed the webserver and not simplefeatures itself. So now, how do I uninstall this?
  15. Yeah I'm a total *nix noob and a GUI for the FTP function would be wonderful. Please.
  16. Well looks like data restore didn't work. after it doing a data rebuild over night, when I checked afterwards the drive has 1.5TB free. Even it said has a crazy write amount on it and all the other drives read amounts. looking on the drive it's empty. bleh. sucks.
  17. Just some help. Running 5.0-beta14, I've got Pro license. I shut down my unRAID the other night, today I added a couple fans, turned the unRAID back on. I have 8 data drives, 1 parity, 1 cache. When I go to the web interface, only 1 of the data drive is mounted and everything else says it's "mounting". And only Refresh is available to click. I go to unMENU and it says it's running a parity check with 42,000 minutes left to go! Here's my syslog. looking at the syslog in unmenu I only see a couple RED (errors) items: Jan 24 17:59:09 Server kernel: atiixp 0000:00:14.1: simplex device: DMA disabled (Errors) Jan 24 17:59:09 Server kernel: ide1: DMA disabled (Errors) Jan 24 17:59:31 Server kernel: ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen (Errors) Jan 24 17:59:31 Server kernel: res 40/00:ff:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/40 Emask 0x4 (timeout) (Errors) I'm a total linux/unix/*nix noob. I've checked my cables and made sure they're attached ok, but I'm gonna try again and unplug/replug all the cables. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You. EDIT: gah, no go still. Sometimes when I boot up, the webgui won't start and i don't see any drives mounted in /mnt/ EDIT: Man I'm so confused. So I plugged in all my drives one at a time and figured out that if one of the drives is plugged in, the webgui won't start. So I leave that unplugged. webgui starts and of course tells me i'm missing a disk. So that's ok I start the array anyways.... and it's still stuck now trying to mount the drives. It can mount 1 drive and not the other 6 data drives. Help Please. EDIT: Ok I guess the disk got corrupted or something. I popped it into my sata dock I have, booted up gparted and wiped the drive's partition/etc. Stuck it back in the unRAID, things came back up, it detected it as unformatted, it formatted it, then I was able to data rebuild on it. syslog-2012-01-24.txt
  18. Anyway to upgrade/change USB Flash Drives without buying a new license? Can I mail Tom my old USB Flash Drive with the key, he can keep it and verify that I no longer have it, then give me an updated new key for a new USB Flash Drive I bought?
  19. Went from 5.0beta6 to 5.0beta6a. Started the Array and it tells me my CACHE drive is unformatted. (it's empty, so I wasn't worried). The thing is, before when I did click on the disk, it said the Partition Type was unknown or some weird thing, so guess this will solve that. Format on the Cache finished (500gig WD), it now says 4K-Aligned.
  20. Ever since 5.0Beta 5/5a/6 my cache no longer spins down automatically.
  21. I i had 5.0Beta5 and had to change my spindowndelay to "0" to boot my unraid back up. I did that. Now I've installed 5.0Beta5a, booted back up great, changed the hard drive spin down delay in the web config back to 1 hour. It's been 3-4 hours now and it has not spun down automatically. (Have not accessed any files off the unraid).
