This is an old install that worked well until an unexpected crash due to a power outage and the UPS apparently not communicating correctly with the server. Version is 7.0.1. I haven’t updated yet.

I did that following the steps in parentheses, there might be an easier way but this is what I did. (for anyone who doesn't know how to without internet access: 1. boot to safemode with GUI, 2. open Plugins tab; 3. open Install Plugins tab, 4. browse to config/plugins, 5. find plugin, 6. install, 7. in my case, then uninstall). I now started the server and tried to connect. I collected diagnostic data ending in the time stamps listed below for each reboot and after what I did described below: 1314: after safe mode GUI after Realtek plugin uninstall, then reboot 1324: after safe mode GUI: access via local network confirmed, then reboot 1332: after normal reboot: able to connect to server locally and login in remotely from another networked PC, waited, started array, lost connection. On screen connected to server I saw several messages from syslog: nginx....[emerg]...... bind() to ..(some IP that is not local).. failed (98: already in use). 1931: after reboot normal: short time able to login remotely, but after around 20 sec connection lost and nginx error appears locally again.. blipa-diagnostics-20250513-1931.zip blipa-diagnostics-20250513-1314.zip blipa-diagnostics-20250513-1324.zip blipa-diagnostics-20250513-1332.zip

Here you go (one for safemode GUI, the other one normal booting into GUI). Thanks for your help. When booting into safe mode with GUI, I have access to localhost on the server screen and can install apps. I can see the server in my local network and access the flash drive (which I made visible for faster troubleshooting purposes). When booting normally into the GUI, I cannot see localhost on the server screen. Surprisingly, I can see the server in my local network and get access to the flash drive. I appreciate all your help. blipa-diagnostics-20250512-2026-normalGUI.zip blipa-diagnostics-20250512-2019-safemodeGUI.zip

Using ifconfig eth0, I am receiving an error: fetching interface information: Device not found In system drivers under Type net/ethernet/realtek, r8169 is now disabled (on the right it says blacklist r8169). Not sure if I can enable that again. Should I try and enable that and if so, how? In system drivers there is another disabled driver: cdc_ether

Hello, thanks for your help. I installed the RTL8125 driver app, updated the BIOS and disabled c-state in the BIOS. I now lost network connection completely. I could see the Unraid server in my network before, but cannot anymore. I attached a new diagnostics file. In the syslog, I can see that in the sshd line the server listing is now 0.0.0.0 port 22, while it was 192.168.1.79 port 22. Thanks for your help. blipa-diagnostics-20250511-1533.zip

Hi trurl, Thanks for your quick reply. The diagnostics are attached for both cases. I hope this helps. blipa-diagnostics-20250510-1818-normal-boot-no-localhost.zip blipa-diagnostics-20250511-1116-safe-mode-GUI.zip

Hi all, thanks to all who are going to read this and have helpful comments. But a disclaimer first: I am a total amateur with regards to servers and homelabs and are slowly starting to get my feet wet. After a few months of Unraid running fairly okay, we had a power outage and Unraid was not shutdown gracefully as far as I can tell. Upon reboot, I could not reach the server in my network. In order to figure out what was going on, I did the following: 1. I hooked up a screen, keyboard and mouse, rebooted and started the GUI via the slim command. Firefox did not show the usual GUI but an error that localhost could not be loaded. 2. Rebooted into safe mode with GUI, which booted up. I saved a syslog which is attached. 3. I rebooted again, no safe mode, into the terminal, started the GUI via slim and saved a diagnostics file (syslog from that is also attached). From what I can tell, there might be an issue with SSH, but I am not sure. I disabled the use of SSH in access management using the safe mode GUI, rebooted but no success. Has anybody seen this issue, or can tell what is going on based on the description of sys logs? Thank you so much for your help! PS: I have the following plugins installed (not sure how to update them in the terminal in case those are issues) community.applications.plg - 2025.01.28 (Up to date) fix.common.problems.plg - 2025.03.12 (Up to date) gpustat.plg - 2025.03.28 (Update available: 2025.04.27) radeontop.plg - 2023.02.22 (Up to date) tailscale.plg - 2025.04.17 (Update available: 2025.05.08) unraid.patch.plg - 2025.01.31a (Up to date) unRAIDServer.plg - 7.0.1 user.scripts.plg - 2024.12.19 (Up to date) syslog-20250510-2134-safe-mode-GUI.zip logs-20250510-1818-normal-boot-no-localhost.zip

Hi all, I am a total newbie and just setup an Unraid server for storage and Plex about a month ago. I have two storage hard drives and a parity hard drive as well as two cache drives. I checked the UI daily and saw that one of the cache drives stopped showing its temperature. Besides that, things ran quite well for a week or two, but when I restarted the server after installing some more fans, I had an error message that the cache drive that didn't show its temp failed. This is when things went south since I probably didn't follow proper protocol to change the cache drive for a new one. I just plugged a new one in, assigned it and started the array. Since then, the docker service cannot be started anymore, and I cannot copy files to the server either. As I mentioned, I am a total newbie, and would really appreciate step by step help if possible. I am okay with setting things up again as long as I can keep my data array somehow intact so that I don't have to recopy the files. Thank you so much for your help! blipa-diagnostics-20240831-1658.zip
