    I've been using crashplan for years... Tony
  2. Hi seanant sent money via paypal on 15th for two to ship to the uk. You said "I'll ship today if you get payment to me by 1500 PST. SEnd payment with shipping details to [email protected]" but I have not heard whether you have sent them or indeed received the money (...have pm'd but I guess that you have had a lot of interest). Please can you confirm that they have dispatched and any tracking details?. I have got my drives and cables ready to go! Cheers Tony
  3. Are you using eset antivirus? Had a similar issue and solved it and put the solution on the forum
  4. Just received mine- he apologized saying that during the move the systems were down longer than expected
  5. This seems to be some great mystery of the universe. Seems like a dozen of us suddenly started having this problem, but no answers exist. rdevName.22 not found, but I don't know what that means and why it didn't happen for months and suddenly it starts happening. I've disabled everything extra and still have the problem. No one has ideas on how to fix this? Test with a clean install. Short of purchasing a new license to put on a new USB flash drive, what files can I delete (after making a copy of course) to bring me back to a stock install? I disabled all plugins, auto installs, scripts, etc. already. I just solved the same error on my system. Are you using ESET antivirus suite? The web scanner crashes emhttp on unraid. see http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=18333.0
  6. I had the same problem and solved it (for me!). Are you using ESET? If so, see http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=18333.0
  7. Guys Just solved a problem on my unraid system that has wasted hours of my life. If I go to tower in my browser, I get an obscure error and the gui crashes. When I tried to restart service in telnet, I get seg fault errors. After rebuilding, trying different versions, disabling addons I accidentally discovered the culprit/cause. When I rebuilt from scratch it worked fine until I changed the root password for unmenu - it then crashed again. If I restart the server and disable/uninstall eset, it works fine!. The problem is caused by the ESET web access protection - it crashes emhttp. To resolve, right click on the eset icon, advanced setup, web access protection/httpchecking UNTICK. You can probably add rules to do this. Hope that helps! Tony
  8. Thanks for the info. I have been running memtest and it seems ok. Reformatted several test with the same error - no gui except unmenu wiped out all the extra modules - still the same. Then disabled my ESET 5.0 antivirus web scan and it all starts working!!!! I think that eset is crashing the gui. What a waste of 5 hours of my life! see http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=18333.0
  9. same problem on b14, switching back to b13 doesnt fix it.. restarting emhttp: Feb 6 12:55:39 Tower emhttp: unRAID System Management Utility version 5.0-beta14 Feb 6 12:55:39 Tower emhttp: Copyright © 2005-2011, Lime Technology, LLC Feb 6 12:55:39 Tower emhttp: Pro key detected, GUID: 090C-1000-AA09-xxxxxxx Feb 6 12:55:39 Tower emhttp: rdevName.22 not found Feb 6 12:55:39 Tower emhttp: diskFsStatus.1 not found Feb 6 12:55:39 Tower kernel: emhttp[15555]: segfault at 0 ip b74ed760 sp bf8df720 error 4 in libc-2.11.1.so[b7474000+15c000] I saw on here http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=13864.0 that same problem was caused by usb stick going out. Have emailed Tom for new guid.
  10. on a similar vein, I use a program called "TST10.exe" to do a clean power down of my unraid server which is initiated by my belkin UPS: shutdowntower.bat ============== C:\unraid-powerdown\TST10.exe /r:C:\unraid-powerdown\PowerdownScript.txt PowerdownScript.txt =============== tower WAIT "login:" SEND "root\m" WAIT "Password:" SEND "secret\m" WAIT ":~#" SEND "/sbin/powerdown\m" WAIT "Broadcast message from root" ---- ****(i think this last wait msg is changed now, need to double check but not important)**** This uses the Powerdown script from unmenu TST10.exe sends commands by a telnet session
  11. What is your equipment setup? Unraid server: System: Gigabyte - GA-K8NXP-SLI CPU: AMD AthlonTM 64 X2 Dual Core 4400+ - 2.2 GHz Memory: 4 GB - 166 MHz Network: 1000Mb/s - Full Duplex I have an Acer Revo with openelec and wdtv live both using NFS and XBMC on win7 using SMB across HomePlug av200s - only one at a time if running HD!
  12. (I'm using 5b13 with a mix of NFS (media streaming music, avi and bluray rips on openelec linux xbmc) from user mnts and smb with no transfer issues)
  13. If you have installed the clean power down script in unraid, you can use a program called "TST10.exe" <- google it contents of shutdowntower.bat ======================= C:\unraid-powerdown\TST10.exe /r:C:\unraid-powerdown\PowerdownScript.txt contents of PowerdownScript.txt ======================== tower WAIT "login:" SEND "root\m" WAIT "Password:" SEND "secretpassword\m" WAIT ":~#" SEND "/sbin/powerdown\m" WAIT "Broadcast message from root" HTH Tony
  14. an app called Snap allows you to plug in and share a usb drive. I'm running sickbeard/sabnzbd/couchpotato/headphones on my server which used to be a whs server. The clients are mac/win 7/ and xbmc (openelec via NFS, win7 via smb). Tony
  15. My provider throttles newsgroups during peak hours on secure port 563 but not on 443.... Might be worth a check. I just queue my stuff for out of hours now.
  16. I had this too. If I then just rebooted, it said that parity was ok but I rebuilt just in case....
  17. I understand that a special packet needs to be crafted to wake a machine. My idea is to use my router to determine the state of the server - alive,dead/sleeping - and when it sees traffic for the server it will send the magic packet from the router. I use DDWRT on my routers and you can run scripts that could send this packet for you. There are a number of addon scripts to check for ip access etc. If it is too complicated looking for access on the main router, I guess that you could use 2 routers - one is dedicated to the server. By adding a route on the main, any access for the server will be redirected to the second router rather than the wan. Is the idea feasible? Tony
  18. couple of queries, have installed on 5b12a, seems to run 1) iphone/ipad do not appear in the usb devices list..... is this correct?. Would like to just plug in the iphones and it will backup to photos directory... 2) When mounting a flash usb drive for testing, I cant see the files on the drive - it disconnects when I click on the share (I'm using a mac with Lion osx). Looking at the permissions, the disk directory is 755 with owner "root root". The mounted drive is 760 and "root users". The other disk1-6 dirs are 770 and "nobody users" and subsequent directories (shares) are 770 and "nobody users". Remember, I'm using the 5b12a and I believe that ownerships have changed. cheers Tony
  19. Yes, but why would you want to do that. Not closing the apps properly could lead to corruption of there databases, config files, and settings. was a thought, I had to rebuild a disk to get it 4k aligned but couldnt find which app was stopping cache from unmounting (I'm a noob in Linux). I guess that its not often I need to do that Was running sabnzb and couchpotato on cache...
  20. I have apps running on my cache drive and sometimes I have difficulty stopping the array because the cache cannot stop. If I move apps to a snap drive, could I stop the array without closing the apps?
  21. which version of unRaid are you on?. I had exactly the same problem on 4.7 and solved it as detailed here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=12494.0 The problem was the mapping of the x in rwx in CIFS (samba) to hidden and system Tony
