Tarsier

Bizarrely enough, it seems to be working fine now. No adblockers installed...

I played around with the Scheduler settings page I seem to have gotten it working now # Custom cron scripts: # Runs Docs Backups on Tue and Fri 2am 0 2 0 * 2 logger Started DocsBackupTue && rsync -av /mnt/disk1/ /mnt/disks/WDMyBook/DocsTue/ 2>&1 1>/dev/null 0 2 0 * 5 logger Started DocsBackupFri && rsync -av /mnt/disk1/ /mnt/disks/WDMyBook/DocsFri/ 2>&1 1>/dev/null# Generated system monitoring schedule: */1 * * * * /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix/scripts/monitor &> /dev/null # Generated parity check schedule: 0 0 1 * * /usr/local/sbin/mdcmd check &> /dev/null # Generated plugins version check schedule: 10 0 1 * * /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.plugin.manager/scripts/plugincheck &> /dev/null I would guess that it's related to the way the Scheduler settings page refreshes when you select Scheduled parity check setting i.e. when you select Monthly, the page refreshes to give the monthly settings, but you need to actually change the settings, for them to be updated. Selecting Apply immediately after selecting Monthly, doesn't change the cron settings correctly. Hope that makes sense?

I get the output below # Custom cron scripts: # Runs Docs Backups on Tue and Fri 2am 0 2 0 * 2 logger Started DocsBackupTue && rsync -av /mnt/disk1/ /mnt/disks/WDMyBook/DocsTue/ 2>&1 1>/dev/null 0 2 0 * 5 logger Started DocsBackupFri && rsync -av /mnt/disk1/ /mnt/disks/WDMyBook/DocsFri/ 2>&1 1>/dev/null# Generated system monitoring schedule: */1 * * * * /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix/scripts/monitor &> /dev/null # Generated parity check schedule: 0 0 * * 0 /usr/local/sbin/mdcmd check &> /dev/null # Generated plugins version check schedule: 10 0 1 * * /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.plugin.manager/scripts/plugincheck &> /dev/null

The settings stick on the Scheduler settings page, yes However, when i run cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root the parity check does not appear # If you don't want the output of a cron job mailed to you, you have to direct # any output to /dev/null.

I upgraded from 5.05 to 6.2 and also noticed that my monthly parity check didn't run on the 1st of the month. I tried to upgrade using the automated plugin but it wouldn't boot after so I copied the syslinux folder over from the latest zip and ran make_bootable.bat I've tried disabling and re-enabling both notifications and the monthly parity check in Scheduler but the cron job doesn't appear. I noticed that when I disable the scheduled monthly parity check and re-enable the following message appears briefly at the bottom of the Scheduler page Warning: unlink(/tmp/memory.tmp): No such file or redirectory in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix/include/update.parity.php on line 55 EDIT: Thought that a scheduled cron job for backup to external hdd not working may have been related, but it is now working

I'm also looking for a smarthistory successor for Unraid v6 On Unraid v5 smarthistory showed some of the SMART values for my parity drive had been slowly deteriorating over the past few months. I've since upgraded to Unraid v6 and can't find the graphs anymore to send to the drive manufacturer.

Hi there I'm not running a cache drive but have a non-array drive. Can I install pyload to that?

Thanks prostuff1 It's installed on a different array drive currently. I'm going to change my array and install it to a SNAP drive outside my array to allow my parity drive to spin down. Installing transmission to a SNAP drive would work right?

Hi there If I set the watch directory to a folder on an array drive, do you know if it will prevent that drive from spinning down? I'm trying to set the watch dir to my dropbox folder on an array drive so I can start torrents remotely. The dropbox plugin, according to the relevant thread, won't prevent spindown unless files are added/changed. I've searched around regarding transmission watchdir feature and drive spindowns but I can't find a definitive answer.

Thanks for looking into this prostuff1. I would be hoping for a Transmission version of at least 2.33. The reason being, many of my trackers don't allow older versions to be used and currently there are no other bittorrent clients supported for Unraid Thanks EDIT: Untorrent was mysteriously withdrawn a few months ago citing incompatibilities. Could it be due to the same issue?

Interesting but unfortunately it's not allowed on a few of my private trackers. It seems it doesn't identify its version correctly.

I couldn't get it to work prostuff1 suggested he might look at it but I understand it's towards the end of his to-do list and he might never get to it.

I just restarted and transmission starts up. Package Manager shows Currently Installed. Will NOT be automatically Re-Installed upon Re-Boot. EDIT: tried enabling and disabling Re-install on re-boot and then restarting Same outcome EDIT2: OK fixed. Manually deleted an autoinstall file in packages.. I think it was left over from a previous version of the package. Perhaps that was what was causing the multiple instances being run?

Hey prostuff1 Not sure if this is a bug as I'm still pretty new to unraid but transmission seems to remain installed when I restart even when I don't select Enable Re-Install on Re-Boot. Thanks for all your hard work.

I'll PM it to you prostuff1 for security reasons EDIT: Just noting I have no issues with shutting down transmission

My server just had a crash (first ever) so it's possible that something is up with the transmission install. Will run that tail command and get back to you.

Awesome stuff prostuff1! Just want to confirm that for the supplementary packages reinstall on reboot isn't required. Also I've been running the old packages for about 2 days straight with no freezing issues.

Transmission's working fine for me on Unraid 4.7 but will leave it running and see how I go. I've got a powerful RT-N56U router so I shouldn't have any issues with routing power. Will let you know how it goes.

Alright! Thanks prostuff1! I appreciate it too!

It depends on your individual trackers This is also on my list to look at, but it is towards the bottom... I might not ever get to it. Can you link to your thread where you were trying to get it to work? http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=14179.0

If I'm not mistaken Transmission is the only package that's currently supported. UnTorrent has been officially taken down. Unfortunately for me my trackers don't allow the version of Transmission, 2.01, that's installed by the package. I had no luck trying to get Deluge to work.

I'm new to unRAID but I would participate as a student and also help out where possible with pointing people to the right place. I was also thinking a dedicated IRC would be an easier way to manage it. It would take care of issues with scheduling and time zones by just having people around in there when they're available to help

Hi all, I'm new to unRAID and new to Linux so apologies for any obvious oversights on my part. I'm trying to get Deluge to run on unRAID. I'm using the deluge 1.3.2 package from http://slackware.org.uk I'm installing the following dependencies, mostly from slackbuilds and slackware.osuosl.org/ python-2.6.6 setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6 pygobject-2.26 GeoIP-Python-1.2.5 Mako-0.4.1 Twisted-11.0.0 Zope2.13.8 notify-python-0.1.1 pygame-1.9.1 pyOpenSSL-0.11 pygtk-2.22.0 python2-chardet-2.0.1 pyxdg-0.19 When I try to run deluge I get the following error: ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/glib/_glib.so: undefined symbol: g_malloc0_n [ERROR ] 03:32:17 ui:147 There was an error whilst launching the request UI: gtk [ERROR ] 03:32:17 ui:148 Look at the traceback above for more information. Does anyone have any idea? I did some googleing which suggested that pygtk may have to match the python version. Deluge 1.3.2 requires pygtk >2.22.0 I can't find a a slackware package for pygtk 2.24.0 I've tried packages of python versions 2.6.4 and 2.6.2 from slackware.osuosl.org/ but they don't seem to install properly I also tried python 2.5.2 matched with setuptools-0.6c11-py2.5 with no luck. I appreciate any help possible.

unRAID 5 is a moving target. Maybe unMenu changed, you may have to install unRAID manually. The two files are the install buttons I'm assuming. I've got to get a shipment out but I'll take a look later if I get a chance. I came to post that I'm having the same issue but I'm on 4.7. My unmenu didn't seem to be the newest version so I just now updated it and restarted it and I'm still seeing the same issue. I click the check for update button, the page refreshes, but nothing ever changes. There is nothing at the bottom of the page as expected. I have no problem installing it manually but I'm free for testing if you need. Nothing is output to the syslog when I click the check for update button but if you want one anyways then let me know. I too have the same issue with 4.7
