;tldr if you hit a wall, try doing what the instructions say and call Apple. Wanted to share my experience here in getting iMessage finally working on this macOS Mojave VM. I went through @SpaceInvaderOne 's (Ed) awesome video (thread). I'm only trying to get iMessage working, so I could relay that using wemessage server, and corresponding android app on my phone. I did end up having to use a friends mac laptop to get both Mojave and High Sierra images. Something about the process Ed talked about only downloaded a 22MB file for Mojave, I knew that wasn't right. I was able to download the larger 6GB dmg of Mojave using Ed's posted "Download macOS tools" link, posted in the description of his video. I also had a trip-up that hung on the Clover install, where the "Install macOS" icon didn't appear (this part of the thread). I believe what happened there was I didn't let the Disk Creator finish it's job creating the bootable dmg/img. There wasn't much in the way of a working status bar, but I just left it alone, and eventually a "completed" dialog popped up where I had to hit OK and continue. Those images worked swimmingly and the "Install macOS" icon popped up fine. Finally, iMessage. I was able to sign into iCloud using a created Apple ID. But when I went to sign into iMessage and send a test message, I got stuck. Here are the two error messages I recall seeing, I scoured these from internets This is getting long, added a tldr above. So, if iCloud is working, and you're still getting these pop-ups, try actually doing what they tell you and calling Apple. I got that from this reddit. Another good guide to fixing imessage also here at tonymax86. Marked is solved.

@bluntcascade @MasterMark ***SOLVED*** Was having the same issue, trying to get Mojave, following step by step video, unRaid server has an AMD RYZEN 3 1200 4-Core YD1200BBAEBOX processor with SVM turned on in BIOS. There was no "install macOS" big picture button above the Clover buttons. I believe I found the issue: I didn't let the Disk Creator step entirely finish (there was no blue progress bar, and I quit out before I got the "Creation Completed. Click <OK> to continue" pop-up, so my install media was bunk. Once I redid that install media in Install Disc Creator, waited for the completion dialog window to pop-up, bing, all working. I verified with High Sierra install, and am going to just go with that one. This also reminds me, I had a bit of a stumbling block at the download Mojave from the app store steps. For some reason, when I did that, I only got a 22.5MB file, who's icon and name was the exact same thing. I ended up using the "macOS Mojave Patcher.dmg" to download the full 6GB "Install macOS Mojave" file. Also short PSA: great everyone is posting css details, but how about using pastebin, or hastebin, to keep the goods more succinct on these long threads? 😉

Is it possible to make the boot/install media on a Windows machine, for people who don't have easy access to a computer already running Mac?

Found this thread because of my slow read speeds, about 9-12 MB/s. I had a parity check going. Canceled that, boom, right up to 100MB/s sustained (to external USB 3 hard drive). Thanks @nuhll

@CyberMew I'm pretty sure one of them is for the https and the other is for regular http access. You should be able to uncheck one of them, and free up the port.

(deleted from Unraid > General and moved here) I see that Sonarr (docker linux|server.io 2.0.0.5163) sends a download to Sabnzbd (docker linux|server.io 2.3.3 [1f04343]) successfully. But the download just sits there, and no mkv is extracted from the rar files. sabnzbd reports Repair [630d80d5bde8430a9bc59eb7932c8288] Quick Check OK Unpack [630d80d5bde8430a9bc59eb7932c8288] Unpacked 0 files/folders in 0 seconds [630d80d5bde8430a9bc59eb7932c8288] Unpacked 0 files/folders in 0 seconds While Sonarr just thinks the episode is downloading 100%, and sitting there. As soon as I manually unrar e "blah blah.rar.part001.rar" the mkv comes out, and Sonarr immediately files it away.  I know Sabnzbd is sitting in a container, and doesn't have access to the normal /user/bin/unrar. I do have some odd settings in there to keep Sabnzbd from thrashing the server if it's working on a dozen or more episodes at once. Settings > Switches > Post processing > Nice Parameters -n10 IONice Parameters -c2 -n4 Extra PAR2 Parameters -t0 I don't recall where I got those things. I'll try pulling them out and seeing if that makes a difference. Anything jump out at anyone? Any other specific logs to include? attached. Not sure where the "docker run command" was, so I'll include a couple of screen shots of the config screen for both dockers. rubble-diagnostics-20180512-2139.zip sabnzbd 20180513.zip

I would like to request a small re-write for the subsonic setup page. In the directions, you refer to both HTTPS_PORT and SSL_PORT. I believe these are equivalent - so when talking about each of them, you should stick with the same words. This leads people to create a new VAR called SSL_PORT, which I don't think is what you intend. I wrote an additional post that has this info, and some other custom domain setup stuff here Some of the defaults in the Setup page won't work, like the /subsonic is mapped to a cache drive, but not everyone has a cache drive. It's part of the required setup. I would add all four of these entries in the default setup, leaving the values blank: /subsonic, /music, /podcasts, and /playlists I'm not sure if this is possible, but on the setup page, I'd really put some sort of horizontal line across from Title and the Value. For instance, "Host Port 1:" is set to 4040, with a subtext of "n/a." It's almost a little tough to tell where the value goes for Host Port 1, as there's a bunch of white-space, and even a little offset between the left and right side of the page. Here is what I'd put in that Setup page: Thank you very much @hurricanehrndz

@lux_en_veritasI have the same question, although I already have a library. I noticed that I download books directly from lazy librarian interface, so maybe I/we don't need the calibre server...? I'll monkey around with it more, and see what I come up with.

What about dust management? Huge factor for a headless server IMO.

I'd like to request a preclear plugin with status page. One that continues to preclear when I close the browser. thanks!

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently Is what I'm going from. I'm on ubuntu server LTS 12.04.4, and unRaid 5.0.5, Plex 2.0.20 The ubuntu server is connecting to the unRaid server via cifs. On the ubuntu box, you need to install cifs-utils either through package manager or apt-get at command line on the ubuntu box. make a backup of the /etc/fstab file somewhere, then I made the following modifications: //dumbo/Movies /media/Movies cifs file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,_netdev,user=<username>,password=<password>,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 //dumbo/Audio /media/Audio cifs file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,_netdev,user=<username>,password=<password>,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 //dumbo/Tv /media/Tv cifs file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,_netdev,user=<username>,password=<password>,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 //dumbo/Othervideo /media/Othervideo cifs file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,_netdev,user=<username>,password=<password>,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 where dumbo is unRaid box, /media/Movies etc are empty real folders on the ubuntu box. <username> is a unRaid user name, <password> is the corresponding password. Each share is mounted with 777 full read/write/execute for owner/group/ and others permissions. I wanted to get the shares mounted like this because I'm using the ubuntu server as a Plex streaming box. Plex Server runs under the user 'plex' and that user needed to have read/write permissions for the shares, or the metadata it gathers wouldn't work - and other fails. [sOLVED]
