stab

Just want to personally thank everyone - and especially Jens - for their posts here. I just followed his pdf, downloaded the latest "TheBay" Bios, flashed it, followed some other guides on installing a drive in the optical drive bay - and boom, went off without a hitch! 9% pre-cleared already. Thankyou SO much!

Turns out it was a faulty Ram module. Pulled it out and she hasn't skipped a beat. Thanks for the assistance.

Just replaced the network switch with another I have - same problem. Copy gets half way across and then I lose connection. Here's most recent log after needing restart. syslog-2013-06-18.txt

Terminal says "unable to connect to remote host" so I can't. I've reset the network switch and still can't connect.

I've deleted some temporary DS_store and .apdisk files which were duplicated. It still happens - I can copy over small files, but as soon as I try something like a 3GB file it starts copying and then freezes. My server is ethernetted to my Mac via a TPlink Network switch. I'll try connecting it directly and see if the switch is the problem.

Yeah I thought so. Any clues what else might be going on?

ok. Here it is. syslog.txt

OK. I've logged in via telnet to monitor the session. Tried to copy a 3GB video file via iTunes to Disk1 Jun 17 13:07:35 Tower login[1873]: ROOT LOGIN on `pts/0' from `192.168.1.9' Jun 17 13:08:07 Tower kernel: NTFS driver 2.1.29 [Flags: R/O MODULE]. Jun 17 13:08:07 Tower kernel: mdcmd (13): spinup 1 Jun 17 13:08:07 Tower kernel: Connection closed by foreign host.

Now I have duplicate files it looks like. I'm trying to copy movies over - a few work and then the system freezes requiring a restart What do I do please? syslog-2013-06-14.txt

Bump.

Version 4.7 Running on HP microserver n40l Seems to run for a few hours and then itunes says disk missing, I check ip addresses and the server is missing. Can't access via firefox either so I just do a hard restart. Advice? Logs.txt

all done! Can't believe how simple it was to restore from Parity. SO glad I went with UnRaid. Thanks again

Man I am stupid ... I didn't even SEE that. Thanks so SO much for helping out an old fool. Now to read up on replacing the drive... before I ask more blatantly obvious questions!

Here's what I got. Can you help with interpretation please!? smart_test.txt

The drive is still showing 'Green'. What does 'ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen (Errors)' mean? Is it possible to run smart tests from within the Unraid system or would I have to take the drive out of the bay and run it on a computer?

OK I've reset each of the drives in their caddies and restarted it. Disk 1 is working at this stage. Here's the most recent logs

OK will do. I just had the drive working for the last half hour (my son was watching Modern Family on itunes which is on disk 1 so I know it was working. Now itunes has frozen and in myMain I'm getting Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: handle_stripe read error: 3000780136/1, count: 1 (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: md: disk1 read error (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: handle_stripe read error: 3000780144/1, count: 1 (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: md: disk1 read error (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: handle_stripe read error: 3000780152/1, count: 1 (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: md: disk1 read error (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: handle_stripe read error: 3000780160/1, count: 1 (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: md: disk1 read error (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: handle_stripe read error: 3000780168/1, count: 1 (Errors) Apr 27 17:42:34 Tower kernel: md: disk1 read error (Errors) etc. I've worked out Firefox too..

Thanks for that. ok - here it is... syslog.txt

Here we go. Firstly unmenu isn't working in Firefox all of a sudden. I get the Main page, but as soon as I go to another topic (ie syslog) im send to openDNS's "no results" page. So without a syslog I can't trouble shoot my next problem... I think I accidently upgraded to version 11 a while back. Any advice?

yes, I just tried it again and no joy. I can't think why its not working.

perhaps I should be specific. I've tried adding a share using smb://tower smb:// ip address smb:// ip address /tower smb://tower/sharename Is there some I'm doing wrong here?

I wanted to access my Unraid Server on my ipad using Buzz Player. No matter what I try I can't get it to open the share. Is there anything special I need to do to get this to work?

OK i'm back up and running. Thanks heaps for this. Had to make sure TextEdit made it a Unix Exe file not plain text. Now to reconfig the hosts file if I can remember what to do!

OK I'll give it a go and report back. Might need some advice on what to do next. I assume I open it with Text Edit or Word and go from there.

Really in a mess here. (using 4.7 networked to Mac running Lion) It was all going fine until I pressed 'renew DHCP lease' on network settings on my Mac. I lost unmenu and Main server management utility - the ip address automatically assigned to Unraid had changed to 192.168.1.12 It had been 192.168.2.4 and id put this in the hosts file so I could access unmenu via firefox. Rather than go through that set up again, I thought "I'll just change the 'Obtain IP Address Automatically' setting in the server management page to 192.168.2.4" I did this and bang - lost access. If i scan the network the Server is no-where to be seen. I can't log in to change the setting. What do I do now?
