Forcing election The diagnostics confirmed that your server does have an IP address of 10.0.0.15 and you should be able to ping that address. Can you get to the server from Windows Explorer (the Windows file manager) in the Network folder? Quote Link to comment
ThirstyPenguin Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 opened up windows explorer win10 , clicked on network, only computer I see is the ASUS-PC(win10) under the computer line. Quote Link to comment
ThirstyPenguin Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 I dont know if this is messing things up, but the only way i have found to get the zipfile off is to save it to the flash drive that i use for booting up. then shut down the server, plug it into the win10 machine and upload it to here.

ThirstyPenguin Posted March 6, 2021 Author Share Posted March 6, 2021 so i left the server up all night, and the ip address is back to 169. Quote Link to comment

No. not a problem. Be sure that you are getting a clean shutdown. Either use the command poweroff (as I recall) or push the power button on the case fro about one second. 47 minutes ago, ThirstyPenguin said: so i left the server up all night, and the ip address is back to 169. I would suspect that you have a hardware problem at this point. I hope you haven't rebooted the server. IF not, get another Diagnostics file to upload before doing so. NOTE: A 169.xxx.xxx.xxx address means that the DHCP query for an IP address from your Unraid server has failed. Am I correct in assuming that you have had periods where you can access the server? You can also conduct a test by trying to 'ping' your computer from the server when things look like theyare working Do you have another Ethernet card? Do you know what caused the power outage? Any possibility there was a big power surge that accompanied it? Quote Link to comment
ThirstyPenguin Posted March 6, 2021 Author Share Posted March 6, 2021 Nope I didnt reboot it this time here is the zip I didn't actually access it when it was uip and running, but when i first loaded it up it connected fine, i got the trial ky and everything. I haven't had it it working since the power outage, i dont know if there was a power surge afterwards, i wasnt home at the time. i don't have another Ethernet card, the Ethernet port its connected to it on the motherboard tower-diagnostics-20210306-1056.zip Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 OK, try the Safe Mode. It is a boot menu option. I am going to ping @Squid and @bonienl to see if they have some insight as to what is going on. Quote Link to comment

ThirstyPenguin Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 i unplugged my unraid machine from my network and hooked up my ubuntu machine with the same cables and it connects fine, i can get to the internet. Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 At this point, I would be suspicious of the NIC in the server. Do you have a NIC card that you could try? Could you borrow one from a friend (or vendor with a liberal return policy)? If the current NIC is an onboard one, be sure to disable it in the BIOS. Quote Link to comment
ThirstyPenguin Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 yeah, im going to pick one up tomorrow from a buddy and give it a try. Quote Link to comment
ThirstyPenguin Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 Thanks everyone for the help on this. I did pick up the nic, and now everything seems to be working! thanks again for helping me figure this out! Quote Link to comment
