    would be good in the Unraid boot menu where you have an option titled like “location, time zone, langrage and keyboard settings” option and then Unraid can detect your time zone, and therefore your language and then your keyboard layout. However, the settings could be changed manually from the location settings using the arrow keys and enter button.

     

    5 years later and I can't believe that Unraid is still ignorant to the world beyond the American shores. A GUI that needs me to edit scripts just to work with "proper" English keyboards is utterly insane.

  2. Has anyone actually managed to get Cloudberry to restore files from Backblaze? Whenever I run the "restore" function - it never actually does any restoring. It identifies that there are files to restore, but fails saying "error on process some files" - but doesn't restore a single file.

     

    Having been using the docker for several months - it's a bit of an annoyance that now I need to use it for it's intended purpose, it doesn't work...

  3. I'm currently trying to deal with the fact my server died mid-rebuild and completely borked Disk1 (now showing "Unmountable File System Present") and the Web UI is currently driving me to frustration.

     

    80% of the time, I'm getting "Hmmm… can't reach this page. It looks like 192.168.XX.XX closed the connection" and then 20% of the time it works fine for a few minutes before crashing and burning again.

     

    I've tried 3 different laptops, a tablet, 2 phones and a PC and the behaviour is consistent. Also, my 2nd UnRaid server is behaving exactly as expected.

     

    I've attached the diagnostics, in case anyone has any suggestions?!

    Its been a while, and I haven't found the time to work out the one really annoying bug(?) with dropbox when inside a docker container.

    Whatever dropbox client uses to ID the host, it changes and invalidates when unRAID is rebooted.

     

    that said, @jowi I can force the image to update, and it should pull the latest dropbox binaries in. 

     

    Think you've just answered a question I came here to ask - I wondered why there were loads of files missing from my synced folders - checked the log to see:

     

    "This computer isn't linked to any Dropbox account...
    Please visit https://www.dropbox.com/cli_link_nonce?nonce=BLAHBLAHBLAH to link this device."

     

    But I guess I need to add "re-link Dropbox" to my Reboot process!

  5. Firstly - love this plugin! Absolute god send.

     

    Quick question - I've got a few custom tabs set up and working (Krusader, Sonarr, Radarr & Plex) - but for some reason, the SabNZBd WebUI simply does not appear using http://192.168.1.1:8080/ - I just get a blank iframe. Am I missing something obvious?

  6. Hi -
     
    These older boxes can work, but they can also be a pain.  It will have enough horsepower to run unRAID and 4GB of RAM is sufficient.  You could definitely stand up a basic NAS with it.  But, these old boxes tend to be heavy, loud, power inefficient and run hot.  And if it only takes SAS hard drives then that further limits your options.  You can give it a try (it's free with an unRAID trial license) and I'm sure you'll have some degree of success - but it may also inspire you to try something newer, more efficient, quieter, etc.
    The choice of disks is not an issue as (from my understanding) the SAS backplane will accept SATA drives - plus we've got a box full of SAS drives in the office that are free for scavenging.

    My boss is almost positive that there's a box here somewhere I can scavenge not RAM from - which could bump it a fair bit.

    I don't expect it to be very quiet or energy efficient. Noise isn't an issue as it'll live in my server cab in my home office.

    I think I'm probably going to give it a go with the free license and use it to cut my teeth on. By the time I grow out of it, our swathe of HP Proliant microservers should be ready for decommissioning [emoji41]

  7. We've recently decommissioned one of these in the office and it's destined for the scrapheap - so I wondered if it would be any good as an unRaid box?

     

    Specs

    Processors: 2 x Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® 5300

    Memory: 2 x 2GB (Supports up to 48GB of DDR2 667MHz)

    Hard Drives: None (But I have 2 x 2TB Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm disks in my drawer, with plans to purchase/acquire several more for this project)

    Drive Bays: Currently has 8 X Hot Swap SAS/SATA bays (with SAS backplanes) and 3 x 5.25" drive bays

    Power Supply: 2 x 930W PSU (with hot-swap redundancy)

    Networking: 2 x Broadcom NetXtreme II 5708 Gigabit2 Ethernet NIC with fail-over and load balancing

     

    Use Case

    I'm not looking for anything to set the world alight - I'm simply looking for something that will serve as a NAS / Media Tank for my ever-growing library of ripped discs and lossless audio collection.

     

    If it's able to act as an NVR for a few as-of-yet-unpurchased IP CCTV cameras - then great!

     

    Cheers,

    Nate
