My spouse and I would like to be able to securely access our self-hosted apps such as Home Assistant and Jellyfin locally, while online or offline, and remotely using the same hostnames URLs (without specifying IPs or ports). Also, I'm interested in SSO and ad-blocking. Could someone please help me understand the best option(s) to achieve this? I've been reading about and experimenting with various technologies such as Wireguard, Tailscale, SWAG, Authelia, Cloudflare, and NextDNS, but I haven't been able to figure out the right combination and want to avoid spending too much time or money on something that won't ultimately work. For example, it seems that Tailscale could support most of these requirements, but it won't work offline. Would Wireguard + SWAG + Authelia + NextDNS work, or am I missing another gap? I haven't purchased my domain yet, and I see that Cloudflare has features such as tunnels that may be another option, but I'm not sure how everything else fits in, and it seems that using streaming apps such as Jellyfin violate their TOS. I would appreciate any guidance. Thanks!

I appreciate you taking a look. After re-enabling bridging and the br0 network didn't seem to help, I reverted to my original network configuration, so that's why you don't see it now. I could try enabling it again with the plugin is removed. I'm mostly confused by what could prevent a settings page from being displayed. What could it be trying and failing to do, and where would that be logged? It's not critical since I'm not using any VMs at the moment, but it makes me wonder what else might be wrong. I searched quite a bit and couldn't find anyone else having this exact issue. I had a Home Assistant VM running before, but I can't recall whether I ever used the VM Manager settings page. I might put a clean trial of Unraid on another USB drive to see if it's displayed then. If it's not, then I could rule out anything in my configuration such as other settings, plugins, etc.

Sure, please see attached. closet-diagnostics-20240318-0833.zip

I previously tried booting into safe mode, which I believe should disable all plugins, and that didn't work. I just tried uninstalling the FolderView plugin specifically and rebooting, same result.

Attached are my diagnostics. closet-diagnostics-20240317-1908.zip

Nothing that I can think of. I tried different browsers and devices. I also tried booting Unraid in safe mode with the same result. I noticed that domain.cfg references br0, and I had bridging disabled, so I tried re-enabling that and rebooting, but no luck. If I re-enable the service, I am able to create a VM, but I still can't seem to get VM Manager settings to display.

That option wasn't available to me. My original post has a screenshot of my VM Manager settings, which were empty. It remained that way regardless whether the array was stopped or started and through reboots. Actually, the settings are still empty. Do I have some other issue?

Was there a way to disable the service from the UI?

And it's gone... thanks! I compared the contents of /boot/domain.cfg before deleting and after rebooting. It looks like the only difference is that SERVICE changed from "enable" to "disable", as you can see below. I did use one VM temporarily until I could replace it with Docker containers, so I'm guessing that things got stuck when I deleted it. Maybe I needed to disable VM Manager beforehand to avoid this? Before: SERVICE="enable" IMAGE_FILE="/mnt/user/system/libvirt/libvirt.img" IMAGE_SIZE="1" DEBUG="no" DOMAINDIR="/mnt/user/domains/" MEDIADIR="/mnt/user/isos/" VIRTIOISO="" BRNAME="br0" VMSTORAGEMODE="auto" After: SERVICE="disable" IMAGE_FILE="/mnt/user/system/libvirt/libvirt.img" IMAGE_SIZE="1" DEBUG="no" DOMAINDIR="/mnt/user/domains/" MEDIADIR="/mnt/user/isos/" VIRTIOISO="" BRNAME="br0" VMSTORAGEMODE="auto"

VM Manager settings are empty for me regardless whether the array is stopped or started. I just tried it again to confirm.

I am using Unraid 6.12.8 and don't plan to use VMs. Is it possible to hide the VMS tab from the horizontal header menu? It adds clutter, and it's right between the DOCKER and APPS tabs, so sometimes I click it accidentally. When no VMs are present, it seems that the VM Manager settings are empty, so I don't see a way to disable them. Thanks!
