Okay... so I figured it out... I think I had the docker installed for so long that some things just hadn't cleaned up over the years... I uninstalled again AND removed all of the folder structure as well, reinstalled, and then finally villages started appearing again!

I am having a weird issue where villages aren't spawning... I even reinstalled the docker, and spun up a new world again... no mods. I go to where a seedmap says one is... nothing. I even used the console command to locate the closest village... there wasn't one there! Is there some option loading in the background that I don't see that is preventing villages from spawning? Can someone PLEASE create a new world and confirm they can find a village? I created a new world for the first time in a LONG time right after the update a few days ago.

Thanks guys! I'll do my homework on it... That is huge!

Thanks Veah... It wouldn't be an entirely new config... I have my existing array, and want to add a disk from another array while preserving the data on that disk.

So I'm having to just move his drives into my array. I found an interesting comment in another thread: Does that mean there is a way to add one of his disks into my array as a new drive (since he was using unRAID already) and maintain the contents?? That would be a HUGE impact to all of the juggling and math I'm having to do to try and keep all of his data while rolling drive much larger than mine into my existing array.

Whole thing... I pulled the drives and carried them on the plane. The case went in luggage. I'm still not at the point where I know exactly what all he was running yet. Plex with most of the normal "arr"s behind it for sure... if I can't recover his flash then I'll just be digging around his appdata guessing. I can get access to his main email account. I'm unsure as to if he had an Unraid Connect account. Thanks Jonathan!

I will try to keep the background brief to get to the heart of my issue/s. I got my best friend (Brad) into Unraid a few years ago, and he had a pretty awesome server going. He passed away two months ago, and until last weekend when I flew from home (Dallas) to Seattle to help his sister pack up his office it has been up and running and no one has touched it. My intent was to bring it home and set it back up next to mine so his family could still connect to him just like they had before. SO... I didn't know his server password but no problem I can get around that. I power down the server, pull the USB drive (it is super hot), and then proceed to plug it into every computer I have with me. Nothing even recognizes it's plugged in at all. After hours of troubleshooting there I realize I'm going to have to do it at home because it's 6am and my flight leaves soon. I don't have all the stuff I would normally capture like drive assignments by serial number, flash backup, etc so I number all the drives and sata cables 1-6 as I pull them out for transport and just pray. I get home and after trying a few other things I pull the flash drive apart and break out the multimeter. Bad capacitor. I'm PRETTY sure if I just take it off the board it will work long/well enough to copy the data. He also MIGHT have backed up his stuff on the array itself (I checked his laptops and there's no backup of his flash drive anywhere else). So... I'm just overwhelmed and discouraged and unsure of what to do next. Here are all the things in my head: 1.) Can I create/restore a backup with the backup tool if I only have the files on the flashdrive and not the drive itself? 2.) I haven't really used unassigned devices much before, and only for stuff like flash drives. Will it let me plug in and see data on Brad's unraid drives? 3.) If it will, is there any risk of messing up the parity drive doing that? 4.) What are the unseen things I'm going to bang my head on if I get far enough to recover his thumb drive and boot it back up? 4.) What are the million things I'm missing that if this were my machine I would have thought of already? I realize that is a lot and kind of all over the place, but Brad is literally the one I would have brainstormed something like this with normally... so y'all get the word vomit. Thank in advance for the ideas/input/understanding.

Guys, I have had this issue for a minute now where it's failing to create folders. It just started out of nowhere... I didn't change any permissions, or anything. Has anyone else experienced this?

Holy crap... I've only looked at that page a few times trying to find other things. Thanks! I have about 1400 audiobooks, lol

How do I delete my database and start fresh? I did the force rescan, but it's saying it missing all of the stuff I moved around.

After reading that discussion, I feel everyone's pain (because I just did the work), but I believe the way you have it now just makes sense... It will also make grabbing future things and automating the organization WAY simpler... Everything has an author/s, but not everything has a series. The kind of fuzzy logic needed just to organize that way doesn't make sense if you're trying to automate... Only now am I realizing how much mental work deciding how to organize and name files in the past was.

I might just cry with joy... That is freaking amazing. I'll go check that discussion out. Now I'm going to go reorganize all of my ebooks in the hopeful expectation you continue to be awesome. Thanks!!

So here's a question... Let's say I use the recommended file structure (which I have spent the last 8 hours reorganizing to😆), but have a series that is composed by different authors (the first 11 Wheel of Time books for example were written by Robert Jordan, but Brandon Sanderson wrote the final 3 books after Jordan's death.) If I have that series under different authors, but the Series name is identical between the two, will they show up in the same series in the app? If so, that would be an awesome solution to the conundrums I typically have with naming conventions anyway! That would solve some other issues I run into with other media types (thinking comic story-arcs) as well.

Well... I've been lurking and watching and simply not wanting to go through changing file structure and the hassle of figuring out what else is watching my books and should be turned off... But this is just looking too sweet! 😆 I'm about to load this bad-boy up and get started!
