Automatic Shares Not Created

[skleezert]

Hi. I have had a problem where the automatic shares that should have been created with my unraid installation have not been created. I cannot create shares myself either. Could this be because I do not have a cache drive yet?

Just to check the obvious - are the drives formatted and are User Shares enabled (under Settings->Global Share Settings).

 

the automatic shares do not get created until you enable the docker and VM services.

And I recommend NOT enabling them until you do have cache so they will get created there. 

 

My guess why you can't create any shares yourself is because you have no mounted storage yet.

I formatted my drives and they showed up. Thanks for letting me know thats what it was and sorry for the newbie question.

So do you mean you enabled Docker and VM Manager without a cache drive?
