I have been using my UnRaid Server to host TimeMachine (TM) backups for a number of years now. However around the time of updating to 6.11.x I seem to be plagued with issues around TimeMachine. I have tried troubleshooting this to the best of my ability but I seem to be stuck at the moment. I keep getting errors; most recently on my Mac an error (112) that seems to indicate that the disk either disconnected or that for whatever reason TM doesn't have the access/permissions to the disk that it needs. And therefore don't complete any further backups past the first one. I seem to be able to set up an initial TM backup but I can't seem to get it to do the incremental backups. Of the things I have tried over the past year or so to fix this are the following: 1. Completely deleting the share and creating a new backup share and starting completely from scratch. Both Public and Private permissions on the share, and making sure TM is selected in the SMB options. 2. Tried re-writing permissions to the time machine share (but may have failed at doing it), from both Unraid console and MacOS Terminal 3. Tried verifying backup on MacOS 4. Tried following SpaceInvaders guide on migrating TM backup to 6.11.x All of this has been unsuccessful. I am still having persistent issues backing-up my Mac to my server. So I am hoping I can find some help here. Thanks in advance for your assistance it is greatly appreciated. treadstone51-diagnostics-20230616-0722.zip

Hey skios, thanks for your help. Sadly the changes to the config file didn't change the errors I'm getting. And there don't appear to be any errors in the log of nextcloud that would indicate why noting is uploading over a certain size. The changes I made to the config file were: <?php $CONFIG = array ( 'memcache.local' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\APCu', 'datadirectory' => '/data', 'instanceid' => 'random characters', 'passwordsalt' => 'different randoom characters', 'secret' => 'longer string of random characters', 'trusted_domains' => array ( 0 => 'LAN IP: And nexcloud port', 1 => 'mycloudURL', ), 'trusted_proxies' => array ( 0 => 'swag', ), 'dbtype' => 'mysql', 'version' => '19.0.6.2', 'overwrite.cli.url' => 'https://LANIP:different nextcloud port', 'overwriteprotocol' => 'https', 'overwritehost' => 'mycloudURL', 'dbname' => 'MyServerName+cloud', 'dbhost' => 'LANIP:DPPort', 'dbport' => '', 'dbtableprefix' => 'oc_', 'mysql.utf8mb4' => true, 'dbuser' => 'its_me!', 'dbpassword' => 'myPassword', 'installed' => true, 'maintenance' => false, 'theme' => '', 'loglevel' => 2, ); Any further ideas?

Oops I completely missed your request to post the config.php. Now your Hide sensitive info makes sense! Ok here it goes: <?php $CONFIG = array ( 'memcache.local' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\APCu', 'datadirectory' => '/data', 'instanceid' => 'random_string_of_characters', 'passwordsalt' => 'a_different_random_string_of_characters', 'secret' => 'not_your_string_of_random_characters_;)', 'trusted_domains' => array ( 0 => 'LAN-IP:NexcloudPort', 1 => 'URL-for-nextcloud', ), 'dbtype' => 'mysql', 'version' => '19.0.6.2', 'overwrite.cli.url' => 'https://LAN-IP:DifferentNextcloudPort', 'dbname' => 'NameOfHost', 'dbhost' => 'LAN-IP:dbHostPort', 'dbport' => '', 'dbtableprefix' => 'oc_', 'mysql.utf8mb4' => true, 'dbuser' => 'MyUserName', 'dbpassword' => 'MyPassword', 'installed' => true, 'maintenance' => false, 'theme' => '', 'loglevel' => 2, ); Also, how do you post code or other things so they show up in that box you can scroll through?

No it doesn't. I do get a different error though than the upload and edit side gets. For the upload and editing I get the error: "An unknown error has occurred". And nothing happens after that. With the upload only I get the error: "Could not upload "[FILE NAME]" ". I this case it was a mov file. Finally you left a note to "Please hide sensitive info!" did I post sensitive info? I thought I hadn't.

Hey Skois, so I edited my php-local.ini file and changed my upload_max_filesize=100G as well as the other changes you made in the first block of text but I am still having the same issue for uploads when not logged in. My php file now reads: ``` ; Edit this file to override php.ini directives and restart the container date.timezone = America/Los_Angeles upload_max_filesize=100G memory_limit=8G max_execution_time=7200 max_input_time=7200 post_max_size=100G max_file_uploads = 200 default_socket_timeout = 7200 ``` Any other suggestions?

So I wanted to update my issue if anyone is following along. I was able to get a bit of help from the Nextcloud support community and have discovered that it is actually a file size limitation somewhere. I have tried increasing my PHP file and NGIX max file seizes with no luck yet. But I suspect that I didn't increase the rights files as the file locations are different in the docker version than in the linux distros people are posting about on the Nextcloud forums. So I can upload files, I just can't upload file that are "large" (i.e. in excess of at least 50MB in size and I suspect smaller but I don't have an efficient way to test). The files that have been successfully uploaded are in the 10s of KBs range. So.... does anyone have a suggestion where I might look for what/why this is being limited? And why its only happening on upload/file drops where it's an 'unknown'/'guest' user? If I have someone log in there isn't an issue uploading big files which makes me think it nextcloud causing the issue and not something outside of Nextcloud (i.e. php setup or NGIX limitations).

Hello all, I have been trying to have other people upload files to a folder I have created on Nextcloud and created a share link to allow for uploading to the folder. However it was reported to me that they were having trouble and I was able to "recreate" the issue on my side. The issue: when uploading files to the shared folder all files no matter how I upload them (via drag and drop or the dialogue to upload files) immediately shows the error "An unknown error has occurred." On occasion I'll get an error along the lines of - Server connection lost - but that one has been far more inconsistent and I think it is related to whatever the problem is preventing any files from being uploaded. Now with all of that being said I can upload files if I am logged in as a user and that is the workaround I have created for the other person in this case but I would like to be able to simply share a link in the future and have other people be able to upload files to me. The other part in this case has been able to download files from the link without issue however uploading seems to be a problem. Which is strange. Why would downloading work but not uploading, any bight ideas here? Thanks for your help!

Who's the newb?! I am! Thanks Jonathanm!

Solved: It was the optical drive. More particularly the optical disk in the drive. So strange. I pulled the disk out from the drive and the array immediately started. Same when I unplugged the optical drive. But the array also starts with the optical drive plugged in, with no disk in it. Also my install of 6.8.0 was not the issue even with the ungraceful shutdown. I was able to recopy everything back onto the boot flash and now have everything precisely the way it was before this weirdness. Please mark as SOLVED I can't seem to change the post header.

I cannot get the array to start under normal circumstances. So far only in maintenance mode. I’ll have to give that hardware troubleshooting a try tomorrow when I have more time, I’ll be sure to update this post with what I find out.

Hey Benson, so both of those prompts aren't returning immediately like they seem to in your screenshot. I think the next step for me to try is to move slots, however I can't see a reason why that would change anything because unRAID is detecting the disks, it just doesn't seem to be able to start the array. And it went from a working array to a non-functioning array without me physically touching the machine.

Benson, do you have an idea where to start with looking into this further?

Thanks Benson, it seems like this might be an issue for me to contact unRAID directly at this point. Unless any other forum members can chime in.

Ya the Parity-Check speed seems normal from past runs when the array was working properly. estimated time to completion as of this post is 5 hours. The disks are all 6TB disks. So if it is a file-system issue does that mean unRAID is corrupted? Or that the file system of the disks is the issue? If so will a parity check fix the issue or will there likely be something else that needs to be done? Thanks Benson et. al!
