I have probably killed my Server, Please help!!! 😢😩

[toasti]

Hello,

 

accidentally I did this in the console

 

Quote

find / \( -type d -exec chmod 755 {} + \) -o \( -type f -exec chmod 644 {} + \)

 

Instead of this

 

Quote

find \( -type d -exec chmod 755 {} + \) -o \( -type f -exec chmod 644 {} + \)

 

😩😩😩

 

Just wanted to change permissions in one folder and subfolders in the current directory (nginx www) but overseen the / I have typed by mistake.

 

I don't know what was really changed, it also says permission denied for a lot of folders. Is there any possibility to check this easily?

 

Unraid says now "blacklisted" where I normally See "Unraid Plus".

 

Web Terminal not working, No Log by web gui, every time I enter the URL I get a Login mask with "Set your password".

 

I think I killed it... any Idea to fix this?! 😢

 

Please help!

Reboot. Since each Unraid boot is essentially a fresh install all the root fs permissions will be restored.

You can sort out your user data (anything in /mnt) later if that was affected.

You have saved me from a sleepless night - many thanks!! It seems that all is ok, also no changes to my data. But will check tomorrow in detail.

 

I was afraid to reboot and maybe no possibility anymore to get access to the system.

 

Puh....

 

Thanks again!!!

The good ole / slash.  Sometimes you don't want it and sometimes you do.  I once moved hundreds of files and forgot the trailing slash/ in the destination.  Essentially that deleted everything.

Oha! And I bet this will no more happen in future 😏

Yep.  I try to copy then delete now as move can have grim results even when you're careful.
