Sorry about being so persistent but this is a very important plugin I use
I have been using the preclear package from the beginning with all versions of Unraid 6.
My current Unraid version is v6.1.2
The only problem I ever experienced was it would take 10 or 20 clicks of the Start button to start the plugin and just as many to the X button to stop the plugin.
I just did two consecutive updates 2015.09.18 and then 2015.09.19a and now get this error message
tput: unknown terminal "stream"
And
/boot/config/plugins/preclear.disk/preclear_disk.sh -t -J /dev/sdg

Are the files on the main page still working or is there a update to them?
Read through and add the Faster preclear script and add the plugin
Works great
-
Voted. I never realized there were options available from the Settings page. Thanks
Looks like the Container volume is already filled in so I have to figure out what to place in the Host Path settings
?
-
Ok. I got CA to start working. There is no Add button.Clicking on the icon starts the process.
Thanks

You either need to add the repository URL to the section in the docker repositories tab and then go to Docker Containers and add a container (it will be in the list), or install the Community Applications plugin (http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=40262.0) which makes the whole system a lot easier to useI know this sound stupid and sometime I cannot believe how I miss the obvious.
I want to run Krusader. Where do I get the Docker Repository ?
When I click on the Krusader icon I get another page with a larger icon.
http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=37209.0
Clicking on the large icon just gets me to a random spot on Sparkly's page.
http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=37209.0
Makes no sense
I understand what you have explained. I do have the Community applications. There is nothing allowing me to add the repository. I assume I could go to the GitHub page and get it but i thought that was the idea of the Community Applications or this page.
So when I click on the Community Application for Krusader I get the entry area to add the container information but since I do not have the repository none of that info is transferred. What am I missing ? The OP's list on this web page definitely does not have the repository. Or maybe my Community Applications is not working correct.

I just ran and completed running PreClear with this plugin and it is great.
My only question is where do I find the Smart History that is associated with each disk that I ran the Preclear on ?
I do find a Smart Hstory (Printed in Red) in the System Log.
If I go to the Smart History Button I get the following message.
"Sorry: cannot run smarthistory. "
"The /boot/smarthistory/smarthistory.php file does not exist."

Is there anywhere we can purchase a nice unRAID badge for our server cases?

[glow=red,2,300]UPDATE[/glow]
###2015.06.13
Fix: remove ^n markup from preclear status
Fix: show a wait message while preclear is starting
Fix: add MD5 verification to downloaded files
Fix: remove the Start Preclear link if an tmux session is already open
OK, just updated successfully and all 4 files in the preclear.disk folder now have respectable sizes. I started a preclear. Now on the Settings->Preclear Disk screen I have one line for disk sdo and at the far right side, only a Starting.... followed by a big red X
Is this expected status behavior for a running preclear?
On the preclear page, right side, above the start button it should state if the script is available

If you did not get a text screen sounds like it did not start.
You should have 3 tgz files and the script in your preclear. disk folder. Did you turn off all pop up and adware blockers?
-
If using the fast preclear script rename it preclear_disk.shI had the corruption (0 byte files) issue as well. Now it runs, but I'm not sure how to use bjp999's version with the fast post read. Do I just rename the script file, or am I missing something?
-
Did you add the preclear_disk.sh script to the config/plugins/preclear.disk folder ?
If you have a popup or any Ad Blockers you have to turn them off for this page
Sometimes I have to multiple click the Start Preclear button
Your preclear.disk folder should be like the one above in reply #60 from morbidpete
And make sure the file sizes match the ones in reply #60 as I could not download them via the plug in an had to manually download them.
-
my plugin setup that is working just fine for reference
Morbidpete
Thank you for the setup info.
I got it working.
Your setup info resolved what to do with the 3 txz files needed.
I was never able to resolve why when I ran the plugin 2 of the 3 txz files were empty. But I was able to get the correct files by going directly to the Slackware site and add them after installing the plugin.
The final thing I found and this is really stupid on my part.
I am using Adblockplus and it stopped me from receiving the preclear messages from within the Chrome browser.
Turning it off for the Tower pages solved the last problem.
Thanks again for all who stepped in to help.

Please go to Tools - System Log and click the Download button and post.
Here is the syslog
I don't see anything wrong, but the download must be failing for some reason...
Are you able to SSH/telnet in or try these commands from the console to see if any errors come back:
wget -O /boot/config/plugins/preclear.disk/tmux-1.8-x86_64-1.txz http://mirrors.slackware.com/slackware/slackware64-14.1/slackware64/ap/tmux-1.8-x86_64-1.txz wget -O /boot/config/plugins/preclear.disk/libevent-2.0.21-x86_64-1.txz http://mirrors.slackware.com/slackware/slackware64-14.1/slackware64/l/libevent-2.0.21-x86_64-1.txz
This basically manually (re)downloads those 0-sized packages you're seeing
I tried using your recommendation and the 2 files I downloaded and received were only 1kb in size.
I don't understand why I am having a problem downloading only those 2 files or why the plugin does not install correctly.
I was hoping the OP could enlighten me on the problem.
I went directly to the Slackware site and downloaded the 3 correct txz files.
Can you or someone advise me what directory or folder names to use and where to place the files after unpacking them.
Currently I have them in separate folders.
libevent
tmux
usr
All in the preclear.disk folder which also includes the file for preclear_disk.sh
The plugin will go to Starting but does not run.
And eventually I stop it within the plugin

Still sounds like a corrupt flash to me but I guess it could be an incomplete download again. Post a syslog.
Here is the syslog
-
Could flash be full?
No. 16gb flash with 844mb used

Your first post to this thread said
Just to clarify, do you mean you pasted the URL into the Install Plugins page, or did you try to save it to the plugins folder yourself?Installed as per the URL above and the installation went without any errors.
I pasted this into the Plugin area https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gfjardim/unRAID-plugins/master/plugins/preclear.disk.plg
Your previous download was incomplete. Delete the folder /boot/config/plugins/preclear.disk (/boot = your flash drive) and re-install using the plugin manager.
I do not have /boot/config/plugins folder ??
I do have config/plugins folder
I deleted the preclear.disk folder,rebooted the server
And reinstalled the plugin

Zero-length files on flash are often a sign of corruption. Put in your PC and let it checkdisk.I am having difficulty with the plugin. It could be I do not know enough and I am not properly installing it.
When I install the plugin I get 3 uzipped files placed into Flash/Config/Plugins (see Attachment)
Two of the files are empty
tmux-1.8-x86_64-1.txz
libevent-2.0.21-x86_64-1.txz
I can unzip the remaining file and get the following Install message

When I attempt to run the plugin I get :
PreClear Script not Present
There is conflicting instructions on where to place the Preclear_disk.sh file
The writer says:
Download it to your PC, un-zip it there, then copy preclear_disk.sh to your flash drive to the same folder that currently has bzroot and bzimage.
On linux, that folder would be
/boot
From windows file-explorer,the folder would be at
\\tower\flash
if you just plug the flash drive into your windows PC, it will be the top level folder on the drive.
And the OP says:
Please put a copy of the script to /boot/config/plugins/preclear.disk/ directory.
I do not have a /boot/config/plugins/preclear.disk/ directory
Only config/plugins/preclear.disk/ directory
So I am totally confused.
Thanks
Did a DSKCHK from the command line on my PC
No Problems were found
I tried again to install Preclear and it did the same thing.
tmux-1.8-x86_64-1.txz File size 0
libevent-2.0.21-x86_64-1.txz File size 0
And it places the third file.... preclear.disk-2015.05.20b.txz into the folder Preclear Disk with out extracting
Is there someway to verify the plugin download is running correctly

Installed as per the URL above and the installation went without any errors.
The plugin was installed and noted on the Plugin page as installed but it was not listed on the Settings/utilities page.
I rebooted the system and still no listing on the Settings/Utilities page.
