[[Plugin] CA Fix Common Problems]

I tried to run a diagnostic report and it seems to have filled my /var/log directory.  

I'm not linux smart but it appears to be enumerating every file on my server.  The report/download has been running all day so far.

is this how it should be working?  Is there anything I can do to get the report to kick out instead of filling up the directory and then bombing?

 

(I was running the report for troubleshooting a different problem where my array seems to just go offline and require a restart).

If the log is the only problem this might help:

btrfs rescue zero-log /dev/sde1

 

That's all it took!  I ran that command and then restarted my unraid tower and all is working again 🙂 

Thanks!!!!

 

[Cache Drive - Power Outage/Surge]

I did have some data stored as "cache drive only" so I'm guessing that data would be lost if I just formatted the drive, right?

OK, that is attached as is the SMART report 🙂

[Cache Drive - Power Outage/Surge]

A week or so ago, we lost power.  I'm not sure of the details as I have not been home.

Anyway, I'm getting an error for the [btrfs] cache drive... "Unmountable: Wrong or no file system"

 

I started the array in diagnostic mode and ran the check on the cache drive.  I haven't changed anything or tried to do anything since I am pretty much a novice and hope to keep the data that might be recoverable...

At this point what should I do next?

[webgui not starting 6.11.5]

This is probably something I'm just not seeing...

 

BLUF: the webui isn't running on my server.  I can't even get to it from the local tower when I try to log in using GUI mode.  

I recently was trying to upgrade my license from basic so I could have more drives attached.  In doing so, I found the  "My Servers" piece and enabled it.  This allowed me to upgrade and have the license pushed to my USB device.  That part worked.  But then I started having problems with the webui.  First, I had done something to get an unraid cert and that turned on SSL for the web ui.  I was able to log in at the console and reboot then start it in GUI mode.  From there I was able to see that it was looking for an SSL connection and it gave me the option to turn that off (seemingly).  After a couple of reboots things were working fine again, for a bit...

I've been scouring the web trying to find how to manually start the webui and I found a thread on here about someone else's struggle and things that worked for them (

 

I tried to perform the command /etc/rc.d/rc.nginx restart but my results were "Nginx is not running".  So I tried Nginx start which told me  'invalid number of options in "server_name" directive in /etc/nginx/conf.d/server.conf:65".

So I took a look at the file but I find there is nothing in the server_name.  It is just a [tab] followed by a semicolon? 

What should I edit this line to be?  Is that my only problem?  How did it get messed up to begin with?

Thanks for any help,

[Timemachine Application Support Thread]

My Unraid box updated to 6.10.3.  Now I am unable to connect to the "time machine" that was working yesterday...  I have kept all of the basic settings I even reissued the chown command on the directory that i am using (/mnt/user/timemachine) but I am not able to find the time machine on my mac now.  
Like others have stated I didn't get it to work in the beginning either. I had to keep messing with it for my mac to discover it.  Unfortunately, I didn't keep track of the changes I made that finally got it to show up.  
I can't mount the smb path to it either.  I think it was done by IP in the past (based on the time machine backup app saying it couldn't find it).  but I've also tried timemachine.local, timemachine, ip/timemachine.local, ip/timemachine, etc.  nothing seems to be working for me.

Any thoughts?

Do you know if one could manually update the container without using unraid updater?

My question too! 

 

I can't get the manual "update" to happen under the maintenance section like I can on my windows VM.  I just started using unRaid and was hoping to use the unRaid docker to handle this piece so I can decommission the windows stuff.  But my version that I'm currently running is 6.4.54 and I can't restore that backup to the older version.  So, though I like the idea, this is currently useless to me without being able to update the unifi controller version in the docker.
