Thanks for the update today. Appreciate also, all of the work on this project. Thanks Thanks Thanks, G3

Hello, I have been using my urbackup for a few years now, works great overall. BUT every now and then I want to use the "cleanup" command and the "remove-unknown" command from the docker terminal.... and I get a lot of ERROR messages like "ERROR: Error deleting file '[the filename and path]"... and ERROR: No permission to access "[filename and path]".... thousands of them... These are either files I am trying to clean up (like files for a computer that we are no longer backing up anymore that has been removed from urbackup) or when trying to remove "unknown" files that are orphan files. I am using urbackup in an unraid docker.. pretty normal setup. I have it running with the highest priveledge and also "read and write" access to the unraid share... Why am I getting these errors and how to I correct the permissions so that unraid can clean itself? Thanks in advance, George

Does anyone know of any updates on this project and/or on the company that purchased this software.. do they have any updates or plans to share?

Thank you very much for the help. I need to schedule some after hours maintenance and replace things. I am thinking of replacing the sata cable first... then maybe the sata pcie card that has 4 ports on it if the problem persists. maybe both at the same time... since its a production server.... oh the joy.... George

Thank you. I have a question. I do not know how to tie atat10.00 to which Sata port or piece of hardware. I do have a multiple port sata card.. and a total of 7 disks in this thing including two cache drives.. How can I figure this out? Thank you for finding this. SIncerely, George Miller

NEW ERRORS Everything was clean for a few days after the fix, but now I am seeing these (below) error starting to creep in. Maybe there are better clues in this screen shot. We have had no power failures (unraid system is on a huge UPS), no force stoppings, no updates, HD's are reporting good within unraid, no improper shutdowns either ( always shutdown this email system from the SSH terminal). Thanks (in advance too) to everyone looking at this with me. I appreciate your help. any more ideas?

To sum it up, we are up and running again which is good, HOWEVER these errors, shown at the beginning of the post that were showing up on the VM VNC session of this ubuntu server need to be researched, so I can prevent it from happening again. If anyone has any insight as to what could cause them, PLEASE let me know and thanks in advance for your help. Sincerely, GTM

Then I followed the article and performed the FSCK as described, it did the repair of the /dev/mapper/zimbramail--vg-root partition, I pressed yes through the prompts, it did the repairs, then I typed in "reboot" when it was complete and it came back up. After reading this similar problem on the web: On boot up, I logged in and did a df -h command.. to see if any partititions on the disk were full.... I don't see a sector called "boot".. but I may not know what I am looking at.. do you think disk space has anything to do with this? It doesn't look like it to me, but I could be wrong. Please let me know what you think and thank you in advance for your help.

To update the situation, I found this article: https://ostechnix.com/how-to-fix-busybox-initramfs-error-on-ubuntu/ I then at the last prompt of the last screenshot (above) typed in "exit" and pressed enter.. and got this:

Thanks, Here is the diagnostics I just now downloaded. server-vm-diagnostics-20220329-1911.zip

Need help asap. production unit. willing to pay for support. attaching screen shots of vnc ssh session. Ubuntu server has been running fine for months as a VM, now wont boot up - production unit. need help fixing.

OK, this may have something to do with it, OR NOT..... but I have no idea how to fix it... Fix Common Problems says that my /var/log is getting full (currently 100 % used) I am attaching the diagnostics file, was able to download it today (thanks for the reboot suggestion) any and all help is appreciated. Thanks prevnas2-diagnostics-20210101-1928.zip

The diagnostic download will not work. I tried a couple of times and gave it over an hour.

Plugins Page not loading when I click on the tab. All the other pages seem to load fine, but occasionally the "docker" page takes along time to load too. sometimes Plugins Page loads if I leave it alone for a few hours, sometimes not. Any thoughts on how I can fix it without messing anything up? I have one VM on the box, and a bunch of shares, all working fine. Thanks in advance for your help. I also tried to download diagnostics.. its been about 12 minutes.. and it hasn't downloaded as of yet. If it finishes, I will attach it below. Thank you 🙂

Hey Johnnie, Thanks for the fix. I know it would have worked worked because it booted up fine using your suggestion.. after I found the cause of the failure. I did a MEMTEST on the ram and wow.. nothing but red scrolling by. Turned out the bios forgot the memory speed setting and caused things to go bazerk and that is why I was getting this error in this situation. I had 3200 speed ddr4 ram in stalled, and the bios was set to 2400. After the correction memtest passed and it booted right up. Thanks for the quick reply as well. Had it been the drive and not the memory, I'm confident that what you suggested would have worked and I am going to file it away in my tool box too. Sincerely, George
