Appreciate the reply but as per my post i have rebooted.

Sorry to bump, anyone got any ideas?

Hi, Hoping someone can help me here. As the topic reads i can't access the web interface to my unraid server, the SMB shares are still accessible and programs running in docker still work but i just get error: It has been like this for some time now but it's only now i have time to fix, i thought a reboot would of fixed it but i've since had power cuts etc and it comes back up in the same state. Sever is running 6.8.0 and I can login as root at console. EDIT: can't seem to remove a screenshot lol.......this is from Firefox anyway. syslog

Yeah sure, link following - you'll see the drive failing at the start and then the shutdown being issued. The SMART outputs are there so maybe it was a something done on v5. https://pastebin.com/Cxv4FZcH Two drives aren't perfect but they'll certainly last for my means......and either way it doesn't really matter now anyway since i have my critical data and i'm just copying across any non-critical now. EDIT: The SMART reports haven't changed either since that last log at power down - and note that date is last years in the log not this years.

New server powered up.........old server powered up, with just the missing failed drive red balled, everything else was green so i started the array and have copied critical data across Currently chewing through the rest of it now, to say i'm happy is an understatement. Thanks for your time jonathanm it's much appreciated.

Thanks for confirming. Yes, it hasn't been booted since and it looks to have a complete log from when the drive started going bandy - they're on my PC at home which I'll attach when i get home. Just going to purchase a couple of drives for the new server and i'll update asap.

Thanks for replying jonathanm. Since posting I have had a look at the SMART output of the drives from the last log file and they seem to be OK but obviously I am still not confident since the amount of time has passed. It does look to be a drive failure from the log files but this is only from my understanding. I think you're right though, i should prepare to copy critical data and then fire up the old one - I have pulled the failed drive though, do you think i should replace or would you need to see log files to determine if it was a failed drive or coms failure yourself?

Just over a year ago a 2TB data drive failed in my 4.7 6 disk array - one parity dive and no cache. I powered the server off at the time until i had the time to investigate and recover, this is where i am at the moment. My question is not exactly straight forward but i'm more after other peoples opinions on what is the best way of turning things back on so to speak? What are other peoples opinions on whether I should first remove each drive and copy the data off first or just stick in a new 2TB drive and allow it to rebuild? I'm also worried that the 2TB drive i have purchased might be bigger than parity, i've posted earlier about this and was advised that if it is bigger even by a byte then it won't work as it is bigger than parity drive - is it possible to confirm that before i power anything on? I've noticed on some drives manufacturers put how many sectors etc are on the drive but these drives don't have that info and not sure if that is usable info anyway? There is some data on there that i care about which i did have a backup of but have since lost most of it - i'm in limbo at the moment as i don't know what i could potentially lose, Schrodingers Cat springs to mind here, i'm almost happy to leave it powered off and for my data to both exist and not-exist hehe. My other thought is about whether i should upgrade before rebuilding as new unraid is obviously much better from what i have read - from what i have learnt in my IT career though i'm reluctant to upgrade while in a failed state.........really want others opinions though on this. I have a new server pretty much stood up and ready to go if i need somewhere to copy data etc so i think i'm as ready as i'm ever going to be but i am still super nervous about it as i have been for a little while lol Any input from anyone i will be very grateful for. Cheers

Dunno what your smirking at unAdvanced Member 🤭 Damn these custom titles 😂 Newbie signing out.

Understood.....Thanks for your time the lioness.

Ahhh yes I forgot about that limitation too. How exact is it when it checks the size? If the new drive is just a few bytes larger than the current parity drive does that matter?

Hi, Really quick (hopefully easy) question for someone, I've googled and found scenarios close to mine but not exact - I have a failed 2TB drive in my array and my parity drive is only 2TB, can i replace the failed drive with a 3TB drive? I'm not expecting all 3TB to be usable but will it rebuild my data or complain one of my data drives is larger than parity? The server has been offline for over a year so I'm hoping other drives are OK and yes I know it's super old, I'm currently building a replacement unRaid 6 box. I don't think spec or any further details are needed but if they are please just let me know and i will provide. Cheers Gil

I would suggest trying this http://tower:22111/subsonic I'm having the same issue as christuf but i am using the correct url - http://myserver:22111/subsonic I just get the "Unable to connect - Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at myserver:22111." error message, I'm trying this inside my LAN at this point. Are there any logs I can check? I can't seem to find one. Thanks. EDIT: NVM, i found the log at /boot/subsonic/data/subsonic.log which pointed to a problem at line 108 of /boot/subsonic/standalone/subsonic.sh which pointed to java related - hmmm do i have java installed? no it seems. Installed Java runtime from Pkg Manager and problem sorted.

Might go for the following if it still seems the best option when i build my rig. Make: Coolermaster Wattage: 850W Model: RS-850-AMBA Silent Pro M Other: 135mm Fan, 85+% Efficiency, Single +12V Rail.
