Bumping this. Can anyone do a quick writeup of the install process?

Can anyone give instructions on how to upgrade an existing install to version 6? Thanks

Thanks. While we're at it, is there a way to force an unmount of a disk when it seemingly hangs? Every once in a while, one of the python servers doesn't allow a disk to unmount. Is there a way to do this manually without a hard reset? Thanks. EDIT: it seems that the powerdown script in unmenu will do what I need

Hey, is there a command I can run at the prompt which allows me to kill a python server, such as sabnzbd, manually? I'm a linux novice.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811997011 Very useful. I've used similar products to hide things from my parents (few years ago, I'm 20 now, lol). Now I use it to store various paperwork, small wires, screws etc.

Yeah, it's always a good idea. I usually get everything in one day from newegg (New Jersey > NYC), but the problem happened on a Saturday and UPS doesn't ship on the weekend

Back up and running. Now, time to RMA that drive...

I built a computer for my cousin last week. Needless to say, my mind was blown when I first went into what I thought was the BIOs. It isn't so basic anymore

So yesterday, after about two months of uptime, my UNRAID server suddenly froze and everything was unaccessible. I did a reset via IPMI, and upon boot, the BIOs stated that my parity drive failed the smart test (the first drive). I allowed it to continue into UNRAID and the parity check ran, giving no errors and everything is back as per usual. I ran a SMART test and got this: for the parity drive. So I'm thinking about buying another 2tb disk, replacing the parity drive and after the RMA, adding the other drive to the array. What should I do? When the new drive arrives should I just replace the parity disk and allow it to rebuild? Is it that simple, or am I missing something? Thanks to all responses. I have 6.5tb of data, so as anyone else, I'm very nervous/cautious. Also, should I shut down the server until I get the new drive to be on the safe side?

Promo code: EMCKGJK24 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152245 I have two of these in my UnRaid build. Works great. You most likely will need to update the firmware, which is an easy process.

Can you link to the listing so I can see exactly what I need to get? Thanks.

I will never shout at my unRAID server again!! WHY WON'T YOU UNMOUNT STUPID DISK1!!!!!!!!

BUMP mrmachine, have you installed the vm to test the install or replicate the problem? I'm running unraid 4.7 with unmenu, openssl and transmission as the only other addons I've installed.

Venting your frustrations at those who create and maintain add-ons is probably not the best way to get them to help you. It's a shame we can't decipher voice tone over the internet. I'm not venting frustrations at the creator. It's just annoying that it isn't working on my setup. I appreciate the work that went into this package and am in no rush. I'm not demanding that mrmachine help me, although it is nice. This is the equivalent of a stripped screw. I can't blame the creator of the screw. Other people have used the same brand of screws and it has worked for them. Its frustrating that this had to happen to me, thats all. Now I have to find an alternate way of getting this screw out, which is more work than I intended to do, but in the end must be done to continue as normal.

Yeah, I know (I was reading a topic where people weren't even sure if unmenu worked correctly). Just was venting my frustrations.

I've tried by both methods (server name and IP). Neither work. Here's the command: root@Tower:/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd# ps ax|grep 'SABnzbd' 26934 pts/1 S+ 0:00 grep SABnzbd btw, if I do python SABnzbd.py I am able to access the wizard to set everything up. Also, the button changes to 'stop sabnzbd' (as it is now running). I cannot complete setup however, because I get an error: "error importing ssl module". One step at a time though, lol. I'm on the verge of just upgrading my install to a beta, lol. Of course, it's beta software, and I rather get it running on a stable build.

I got no errors from entering those commands. It didn't seem to do anything; sabnzbd didn't start (I cannot access it and I still see a Start Sabnzbd button). root@Tower:~# cd "/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd" root@Tower:/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd# LOG_DIR=$(awk -F ' = ' '$1 == "log_dir" {print $2}' sabnzbd.ini) root@Tower:/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd# echo $LOG_DIR logs root@Tower:/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd# mkdir -p "$LOG_DIR" root@Tower:/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd# chown -R nobody:users . "$LOG_DIR" root@Tower:/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd# usermod -s /bin/bash nobody root@Tower:/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd# su nobody -c "python SABnzbd.py --daemon

I just checked, and the error is gone. But, clicking start does nothing (other than say 'SABnzbd started'). After I click, and head back over to the user scripts page, it has the 'start sabnzbd' button. root@Tower:~# ls -la /etc/rc.d total 128 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 26 12:39 ./ drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 0 Feb 27 11:28 ../ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 12 05:16 rc.0 -> rc.6* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1282 Mar 27 2007 rc.4* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7358 Jun 13 2007 rc.6* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2322 May 2 2007 rc.K* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 11325 Jan 12 05:17 rc.M* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 13710 Jan 12 05:17 rc.S* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 466 Nov 5 2004 rc.acpid* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1893 Sep 25 2009 rc.fuse* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3060 Jan 12 05:17 rc.ifplugd* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9258 Jan 12 05:17 rc.inet1* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4376 Jan 12 05:17 rc.inet1.conf -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4847 Sep 17 2007 rc.inet2* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 497 Sep 12 2003 rc.inetd* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 541 Jan 12 05:17 rc.local* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2482 Jan 12 05:17 rc.nfsd* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1510 Jan 12 05:17 rc.ntpd* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1402 May 17 2007 rc.rpc* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4817 Jan 12 05:17 rc.samba* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 989 Jan 12 05:17 rc.syslog* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1740 Sep 11 1999 rc.sysvinit* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4808 Jan 12 05:17 rc.udev* drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Feb 26 13:02 unraid.d/ root@Tower:~# ls -la /etc/rc.d/unraid.d total 16 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Feb 26 13:02 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 26 12:39 ../ -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1282 Feb 26 13:02 rc.unraid_couchpotato* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1290 Feb 26 12:39 rc.unraid_sabnzbd* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1306 Feb 26 13:00 rc.unraid_sickbeard* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 156 Feb 26 12:39 rc.unraid_transmission* root@Tower:~# cat /etc/rc.d/unraid.d/rc.unraid_sabnzbd case $1 in start) if test -e /etc/rc.d/unraid.d/rc.unraid_sabnzbd -a $(ps auxwww|grep 'python SABnzbd'|grep -v grep|wc -l) -lt 1; then if [ -d "/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd" ]; then cd "/mnt/disk1/.sabnzbd" LOG_DIR=$(awk -F ' = ' '$1 == "log_dir" {print $2}' sabnzbd.ini) mkdir -p "$LOG_DIR" chown -R nobody:users .

Done, but I got no output (nothing happened, lol). I'm very new to linux.

Sure http://www.mediafire.com/?ugrfwg32u1753s2

Noted, thanks. Yes, UnMenu says it's installed. I have a button that says Start SABnzbd. Upon clicking, I get an error at the bottom of the page. "mkdir: cannot create directory `': No such file or directory chown: invalid argument: `' SABnzbd started" I'll wait until we get that error fixed before continuing. I did not notice it before.

Damn. The problem is that I don't have a cache drive, and did not have plans on adding one. I'll go read the wiki now. EDIT: I read through the wiki, but the point of this is to have unmenu complete the installation. There isn't much in the wiki that helps my problem. Everything is installed, but I can't access it. I have a feeling it's user error. Starting via user scripts makes no difference.

I tried installing Sick Beard and Couch Potato but get the following errors for both "download not necessary, file already exists with correct MD5 checksum." Where do I proceed from here? I'm very inexperienced. I installed SABnzbd to disk1, because I don't have a cache drive. Is this okay? I assume we access the gui via http://tower:8082/ for sabnzbd? I'm going to read through the topic now.

I highly recommend an XBMC setup with at least an ION system. I haven't used the new Apple TV, but have had my Acer Revo for over a year now and use (abuse) it daily. XBMC plays every file without problems.
