Hi all, I've recently started getting martian reports in the Unifi USG logs, such as: Sep 29 04:54:35 UniFiUSG kernel: IPv4: martian source 107.201.130.93 from 172.17.0.4, on dev eth1 Sep 29 04:54:35 UniFiUSG kernel: ll header: 00000000: 78 8a 20 40 b8 ed 70 10 6f 3e 03 08 08 00 x. @..p.o>.... 172.17.0.4 is the bridge IP address of the Unifi Controller docker. In trying to track this down (and understand what it is telling me) I thought it possibly a good idea to change the docker from host mode to custom (eth0) with a fixed IP and all ports left as the are. Is this a sensible configuration? I have Pihole configured like this and it works well. All other dockers are in bridge mode. Clearly i'd also need to change the controller IP etc from within the Unifi controller settings. I have asked on the UniFi forum, but this is more docker/unraid specific as a first step in helping identify the issue.

My Raspberry Pi install of Pihole failed last night due to a corrupted SD card, but I was able to get Pihole back up and running within 5 minutes using this docker. Thank you! The instructions on page 1 of this thread (and also the cron post further down) are a bit confusing in light of version 2. Apart from installing and configuring the docker, is there any other set-up/maintenance necessary? Is the cron still necessary? Are updates done via the docker update mechanism or from within the docker with PiHole -up?

Ah, thanks!

Essential plugin that's given me years of hassle-free use... I have an external (USB) Segate drive that I use with Duplicati for backups. It is mounted via Unassigned Devices and spins up when a backup is executed and down again after. All is well. I have a new WD MyBook (8tb USB) drive I want to use in the same way. However, it is being temperamental in spinning down when not required. By default the WD has its own power management and APM is set to off. If I use hdparm to set the timeout and enable APM it works for a bit, then resets itself (seemingly randomly after an hour or so, I know it would on server reboot). If I use the built in WD power management it spins down as instructed, but up again at random times. The drive is not being accessed as I only use it for backups at 4am. If I go to the web UI "main" page at any time I always get a pause on the Unassigned Devices section while the drive spins up. The Segate drive behaves perfectly and doesn't do this. Anyway, I'm not expecting a magical solution to this, but with a bit of help I think I have a workaround. If I unmount the device it seems to stay spun-down. I've searched but cannot find a way to mount (and unmount) via the command line. I'm sure it must be possible. I could then add a pre (and post) Duplicati script to mount before a backup and unmount after, which should sort things. Any help with the command I could use to mount (a previously configured drive in Unassigned Devices) would be really helpful. Thanks.

Excellent. Thank you. One more question if I may. I have automatic backups ON. The backup goes to a backup location within the docker (see below). The docker currently maps: /var/lib/unifi -> /mnt/cache/appdata/unifi/ I thought I could simply add a new route for the backup to expose an external location to the docker, eg: /usr/lib/unifi/data/backup/autobackup -> /mnt/cache/appdata/unifi/autobackup (note the /usr rather than /var) The /var/lib/unifi seem to contain the server.log only. The /usr/lib/unifi seems to contain everything else! When starting the docker with the new path added, the UniFi controller had lost all my settings. Removing this mapping fixed things, but obviously auto backups are back to being within the docker image. I believe the question was asked back in April (by lchichiarelli) but I can't find what the resolution was. ps. Happy Christmas!

A question about the UniFi Controller docker if I may. I've just purchased a USG and Pro access point. Totally new to Unify stuff so took it slowly. Installed Docker. Ran through set-up of Controller software. Followed UniFi instructions to SSH on to the USG and change the IP address to be on the same subnet as my Unraid server. Adopted the USG. Disconnected old router. Adopted access point. All great and working brilliantly. Then I was an idiot. Saw in Unraid there was a docker upgrade. Hit Upgrade. Upon returning to the controller software it appeared to be a fresh install? Wanted me to run set-up again or restore from backup. Backup? I am an idiot - no backup yet. Ok, can "transfer" to new controller using admin login/password. Idiot 2™. Safari auto-fill has screwed up my admin password so it wasn't accepted. Ok. Factory reset of both USG and Access Point. Re-install of docker. Would it adopt? Course not. After two hours SSHing in to USG, changing IP and trying to adopt I eventually restored my old router and followed the instruction AGAIN right from the beginning. Adoption fine. Hurrah. Absolutely no idea why my old router was needed, assume routing wasn't correct without it. Made a backup. Quite a few actually. So my question (see, there is one eventually) is What is the recommended update process for the UniFi controller docker? Is it backup -> update -> restore or should the controller remember its settings? I'd just like not to go through this again! Ps. Thanks for the docker. It's excellent. It's just this user who was an idiot.

This looks excellent - Thank You. I am currently using Borg Backup, but this has a very nice looking UI.

I've tried adding two new users and giving them appropriate access rights. Unfortunately it hasn't helped. Neither of these work from the browser, VLC or TVHClient on the iPad. Nor does the Play or download link from the UI. http://user:[email protected]:9981/play/dvrfile/285e44ecf0ea44432f7e996cce82fd91 http://user:[email protected]:9981/dvrfile/285e44ecf0ea44432f7e996cce82fd91 I've spent hours and hours on this and am beginning to give up to be honest.

My apologies, I was writing from memory. You're correct, path is: http://192.168.0.50:9981/play/dvrfile/608a2e04cd8e247011db29e9f90044ef (with or without a title parameter). Any firewalls/anti-virus software that might interfere? No, afraid not. Playing locally. Mac (so no antivirus). Playback fails on Mac, iPad and AppleTV. Live TV works fine from all three. Playback works fine if I network browse to the .ts file directly on all of the devices. BTW, just tried http://192.168.0.50:9981/playlist/channels from VLC and that works fine. It works correctly here. When I click the play button it downloads a m3u file with the link. If I open that one in VLC it starts playing. If I copy the link address on the play button it also works, but then asks for a username/password. Does your users have the right permissions? Did you add a new user and delete the default one? Didn't see your edit about it working in VLC. So then it's a matter of using the correct address/way to play the recordings. Glad to hear it works. At least it means I must be doing something wrong. It's strange that I can play live tv fine via the web interface and vlc, but just not any recordings. If I click on the play icon within the interface, or use the URL within vlc (on any device) I get nothing except not found. I'm using the default user, which I believe has correct permissions. This gives me something new to try though - good idea. Regards.

Has anyone playback (of recorded material) issues? I'm clutching at straws here, as it's probably a configuration issue, but I've spent hours on this so far, googled, checked documentation, experimented and still cannot find a resolution. Thought I'd ask here in case it is docker specific. DVR source is a HDHomeRun (connect). Recording profile set to passthrough so records in .ts format. LIVE TV playback works fine from the web UI, VLC, iPad, AppleTV etc. With recordings, if I browse directly (via the network) I can playback fine in VLC/Plex or other software fine. In the Web UI or via VLC (stream from Network) or other software that requires the Web UI link, playback fails. The link appears to be: http://serverip:9981/dvrfile/filenamehash This address is not resolved. As I say, live TV is working great, just not playback of recorded material. Any pointers most gratefully received!

I've updated to the latest version, which according to your docker page includes picons (in a picons folder) but I cannot find them. Am I being an idiot? * I've now installed them manually and all is working fine. Just wondering if they should have been included or not?

Sorry been away a bit. Thank you from me too for getting it working with Safari. Really appreciate it.

I was hoping some of the changes I made would help. In the lastest update I moved the click from the table row to the cell. See if that fixes it. If not I might need some help until I get my hands on something with safari 9.1 on it. It's different. I now get the rows, just cannot see the content. (see screenshot). If I inspect the HTML the data is there, just not visible. I appreciate what you're doing. If anyone else is using Safari, if might be useful to get some more reports, to see if it is an issue with El Captain Beta/Safari 9.1. (ps. God my internet is depressingly slow. I'm told we now have Fibre available, but speed estimates are for such a big range from SLOWER to 1x5 quicker, with a 12 month tie-in even if slower, it probably isn't worth the risk )

Nice update. Any chance of taking a look at the Safari issue, which I still get with the latest version?

Chrome and Safari screen shots attached. OSX El Capitan 10.11.4 (Beta) Safari Version 9.1 (11601.5.13) Changing the quote on Name didn't help, but removing the "shareRow" class did - although with the side effect on the click event having nothing to bind to.

Hi Anyone else using Safari? There appears to be a bug, as the table of results is always empty although the navigation correctly reports "1 to X of X results". Works fine on Firefox and Chrome. ... Having a poke around - in query.speedtest.js I believe line 24 should read: "<tr id='"+Name+"' class='shareRow' title='click to show image'>"+ And that the missing ' around the Name is causing Safari to fail. This may have nothing to do with it though (I'm not familiar with Unraid plugins) or 'table sorter' JQuery. Update 2: Nope. Found /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/speedtest/js directory so tried playing around. If I remove the class 'shareRow' it works great. Update 3: Ok, the on click event doen't work to change the image, but at least I can see the data.

Thank you for fixing this and for the examples in the first post. Much appreciated.

noob questions I'm afraid, but I'm going round in circles. I'm trying to set up a facility to backup various directories in my array to an external HDD. I've been recommended crashplan. Installed the community crashplan docker and crashplan desktop docker and configured as per page one of this thread. crashplan log: *** Running /etc/my_init.d/config.sh... Current default time zone: 'Europe/London' Local time is now: Mon Jul 20 17:28:07 BST 2015.

Universal Time is now: Mon Jul 20 16:40:06 UTC 2015. cp: cannot stat ‘/root/wallpapers/*’: No such file or directory Err, what do I do now? I don't seem to have any GUI. I was expecting a web-based GUI but reading between the lines I need to remote desktop to port 4243 on my server. Tried VLC on my Mac, but no go. I don't have a Windows box. Am I on the right track? Documentation for crash plan is unfortunately all over the place and quite obscure unless you know exactly what to ask! Help appreciated TO UPDATE: Installed Microsoft Remote Desktop on my Mac and seem to be able to log in. Now to give it a go. Leaving this post here because it just might help other noobs!

Wow. Thanks for the detailed reply.

Keep an eye on the high-fly-writes. The normalized value has dropped quite a bit and is getting closer to its affiliated failure threshold. It has not failed SMART, but it will be something for you to watch on that drive. Thanks. I've just read up on "high-fly-writes" and it does seem opinion is divided on if this actually means anything or not. If given the option, would you advise putting data on the drive and simply monitoring it, or perhaps running another couple of preclears?

Hi All, New Seagate NAS 2Tb drive. Preclear looks 'ok' to me, but I'd appreciate confirmation from someone more knowledgeable. Thanks. preclear_results.txt
