Apparently your USB connection dropped (cable, controller, hard drive or driver) and the preclear failed. Since these are no media errors, I would recommend you to change the USB port you're using and verify all power and data connections of the hard disk prior to a new test.

Please share your diagnostics file.

I've located the source of this bug, will release a fix soon.

My /tmp folder, for example is: drwxrwxrwt 13 root root 400 Feb 13 14:54 ./ drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 440 Feb 13 00:25 ../ drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 40 Feb 12 14:32 .ICE-unix/ drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 40 Feb 12 14:32 .X11-unix/ drwxrwxrwx 8 root root 280 Feb 13 14:54 .preclear/ drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 60 Feb 12 14:32 ca.turbo/ drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 60 Feb 13 06:42 community.applications/ drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 80 Feb 12 14:33 emhttp/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 820 Feb 13 14:26 plugins/ drwxrwx--- 2 root root 120 Feb 12 14:34 recycle.bin/ drwx------ 2 root root 60 Feb 12 15:18 tmux-0/ drwxrwx--- 4 root root 160 Feb 12 14:34 unassigned.devices/ drwxrwxrwx 5 root root 140 Feb 12 14:33 user.scripts/

Something changed the ownership of your /tmp folder. Try rebooting your server to see if it fixes it.

It's a permission error. Something changed your /tmp permissions, and that broke the terminal emulator the plugin uses to run scripts in the background. Send me the result of this command: ls -la /tmp

Please open the web terminal and run this command: tmux new-session -d -x 140 -y 200 -s "install_test_session" &>/dev/null; echo "Open: $?"; sleep 1; tmux kill-session -t "install_test_session"; echo "Close: $?" Post here the result, please.

If you can, remove it and install it again and send me the output of the installation process.

Send me your diagnostics file.

Thanks, this will help a lot.

You can send me the diagnostics file, you can PM me with it to keep you info more private.

Nothing to do, just send me the logs if it happens.

I tried on 8 different drives, and none of them gave me any errors, but somewhat it happens now and then for some people, and I can't debug if I can't reproduce it. It's frustrating.

I can't replicate this behavior, but will increase some time lapses to try to avoid this.

I'm on a trip, will take some time until I can debug this. Enviado de meu SM-G973F usando o Tapatalk

You could try to reboot your server. Enviado de meu SM-G973F usando o Tapatalk

Thanks for reporting, just issued an update. Please confirm if the bug is fixed.

Nicely pointed, this is the workaround available at this time.

This is not possible at this time. Like it said, unlimited attached storage, not unlimited devices in your array.

Are you using the Preclear queue to manage your preclear sessions?

Thanks. You have another plugin using utempter (probably for screen) and the plugin saw that as a problem. Just issued an upgrade, please tell me if it fix your problem.

Please remove the plugin, install it again and send me all the content from the installation process.

The plugin is fully functional; there were problems during Unraid 6.8.1 update because the plugin wasn't updated for it, but it's working right now.

You added a preclearing drive to your array. Jan 11 15:25:12 - the existing plugin is installed. Jan 11 15:47:33 - start a preclear session to disk 2EG35HVJ Jan 11 15:47:47 - start a preclear session to disk 2EG3E52J Jan 11 15:47:55 - stopped the preclear session of disk 2EG35HVJ Jan 11 15:48:02 - stopped the preclear session of disk 2EG3E52J Jan 11 15:48:44 - installed plugin version 2020.01.11a Jan 11 15:49:11 - start a new preclear session to disk 2EG35HVJ Jan 11 15:49:20 - start a new preclear session to disk 2EG3E52J Jan 12 05:30:42 - you added a disk to the array, apparently 2EG35HVJ. At that moment the disk was between zero writing and MBR writing, and after that it began to post-read at 05:32:39. I see no more activity after that. You can see what's happening in the background by typing preclear at the web terminal.

To proper handle unsupported status, I'm thinking in display a message in the webui and disable the plugin functionality until proper support. What do you guys think?
