[Wireguard: I can open shares and see all content, but I can't copy files to them.]

I can open shares and see all content, but I can't copy files to them. Since I reinstalled my Windows 10 laptop I keep having problems with Wireguard. Last week I googled for a solution changed a part of the client config and it worked. A day later it doesn't work, I reconnect it works... now it doesn't work again and reconnecting doesn't solve the problem. Anybody had this problem and knows a solution. I start traveling soon and then I really need my VPN to work.

 

Thanks in advance!

[Update from Unraid 5.0.6 doesn't work]

Thanks Frank! I was doing some brainstorming and came up with this. 

 

I can copy all of the (emulated) data of Disk 1 to Disk 3 just to be safe. Then I can try the procedure to see if Disk 1 really is bad. If it is bad I can reconfigure the whole array but without the bad disk. Or isn't that going to work? 

[Update from Unraid 5.0.6 doesn't work]

Thank you all for your help! First of all my own server is running on 6.9.2 so using version 5 is the learning curve... not upgrading

 

I think I have all the information I need to do the upgrade so I feel a lot more confident. 

 

But I do have another question. The server has an array of 5 4TB drives, 4 data drives and 1 parity. Disk 1 is disabled and needs to be replaced, I was going to do that after the upgrade but since it's quite a big upgrade I'm going to play it safe and replace drive 1 first. Disk 1 and 2 are used, 3 and 4 are empty. I was thinking of removing Disk 4 and use it to replace disk 1, however I read that after removing Disk 4 the parity needs to be rebuild which in my mind is tricky or impossible with a broken Disk 1. 

 

Can I use 1 of the empty disks of the array to replace number 1? Or do I need to tell them to buy a new one?

I don't know quite where to tell you to start.  It has been seven years now since version 6 first appeared.  You can read this thread:

 

      https://forums.unraid.net/topic/37354-upgrading-unraid-from-version-5-to-version-6/

 

Unfortunately, I don't even remember the details in the first post and I wrote it! 

 

First thing to do is to make a complete backup of the contents of the present boot drive.  (You may never need it--- unless you don't do this first!   😈  )

 

Basically, I would recommend that you need to get a printout of the disk assignments for the present setup, Make note of the server name and the IP address of the server if you are using a static IP address.  Make sure that you have a copy of your .key license file.  (It may be in the root of the boot drive or in the /config folder as I can't remember which was used for version 5.)

 

Begin by formatting your Unraid boot drive and installing the latest version of Unraid onto it.  Copy the .key file to the /config folder/directory.  Boot the system and assign the drives using that printout.  Setup the reminder of the settings. 

 

Use Dockers rather than Plugins when possible!

 

Then ask if you have issues...

 

Thanks for the reply! I'm going to do it like you described. Can i copy the contents (without the plugins) of the Config folder back? The people that use this server are total noobs so if anything changes it's going be a disaster

[Update from Unraid 5.0.6 doesn't work]

I'm trying to update an Unraid server which hasn't had maintenance in a very long time, still running Unraid 5.0.6. I've followed the instructions on the website and forum, installed the unRAIDServer.plg plugin but it gives an error when I try to run it.

 

First it gives 2 403 errors and then it tries to download version 6.5.3 which results in a download error 0.

 

I attached a screenshot, what can I do to resolve this?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

 

[Plex container missing after extra parameters]

You made a mistake in the extra parameters.  Apps Tab, Previous Apps, select your plex, hit the install icon, and adjust the template accordingly.

Thanks a lot! It's running again!

[Plex container missing after extra parameters]

< I think this belongs in the Docker Container part of the forum but i can't create a new topic there >

 

Recently i replaced my old Plex Unraid plugin with a Docker version (Linuxserver iirc). Today i was on the config page of this container and saw the instructions for GPU transcoding. Seemed easy so i edited the GO file, restarted the server, added the extra parameters and clicked Apply. After this, my Plex container is gone. When i choose the advanced view in the Unraid GUI i see an orphan image that could be the container i'm missing. I'm a Docker noob... please help! 

 

If extra info is needed please let me know
