Hi folks,

 

Sorry I've googled this first and tried following a guide by spaceinvaderone to make sure I'm not doing anything dumb.

 

I've already got krusader installed and copying data across from USB to onboard drives so I've been able to install an app before.

 

When I try to install Sab for example I get the message:

  --sysctl="net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1" 'binhex/arch-sabnzbdvpn'

ff61a529d63b87647504eadb5c87c44b1b642d3ff66744a396971a8975b2f183
docker: Error response from daemon: error while creating mount source path '/mnt/user/appdata/binhex-sabnzbdvpn': mkdir /mnt/user/appdata/binhex-sabnzbdvpn: read-only file system.

The command failed.

 

the guide I was following doesn't say changing the install path from appdata so I've left it there.

 

appdata share exists, can't see anything in it telling me it is read only.

 

Any idea how to proceed please?

 

Thank you

Looks like your cache drive has disconnected. Possibly related, your system share has some files on disk2.

Thanks trurl, you can probably pre empt my next question then...

 

Do you (or anyone else) have any suggestions on what to do next please?

 

cache drive is showing as active with barely any space used.

Disk2 has a few folders/files within. It shows 106gb used but when I browse the folders I can only see 26gb worth so maybe some are hidden.

 

Attached a screenshot of that too.

Thank you for any advice, am ashamedly out of my depth with unraid at this moment in time.

 

 

Your cache drive isn't giving a SMART report. Try reseating cables, power and SATA, both ends, including splitters. Then post new diagnostics

 

Why do you have so many Unassigned attached?

Ooh that’s weird! Will give that a go once my data copy completes then. 

 

as a thought, I’m not actually using the cache drive right now for anything. It’s more for when everything is setup. If I temporarily removed the pool drive, reckon it would cause problems if I tried it later on once everything else is working and all apps (hopefully) installed?
 

the unassigned devices are temporary. I’m moving to unraid from a windows server that had a 4 drive usb bay connected. I’ve connected it up so I can copy all the media over, once it completed they’ll come out of the caddy and get put into the unraid box correctly but need to get the data off first.

You already have this one you will need to work on anyway.

Is that a problem?

 

Sorry not purposely being obtuse but as I said, I don't know much about it all atm. I installed unraid to USB, put it in my machine, formatted drives, built array, created data share to use across all drives in array then installed:

 

community plugins

krusader

 

so not sure how system stuff has ended up where it shouldn't have.

 

Thanks for your help thus far.

Thank you @trurl, woke up today and my krusader copying had stopped at some point overnight and become inaccessible. Took the opportunity to shut down server and test cables, all connections seemed OK but re-seated anyways and cache drive now able to do smart test and sab has just successfully installed.

 

If you get chance would you mind giving me a pointer as to what log you looked at in the diagnostic to realise the issue so I can start there in the future? was it the btrfs errors in syslog.txt?

 

Thank you again! really appreciate your help.

Hopefully diagnostics attached. I've also had 2 new errors today with radarr and plex not starting, I found their errors and did some searching on the forum and found another post you replied to from a few years ago where you suggested the person do a "compute all" in shares which I've done and shows the system on multiple disks as you mention:

Yes and you still have them along with I/O errors on cache and no SMART report for that device. Check connections, SATA and power, both ends, including splitters.

The reason I said this was possibly related is because if you enable Docker without a cache drive, it will get put on the array.

 

Nothing can move open files, so after you get cache working reliably, you have to disable Docker in Settings then run Mover.

 

You might consider just replacing with something less troublesome.

 

oh flipping heck - yeah I'll just move that drive to my windows machine and get an alternative cache drive from somewhere.

 

What a PITA! thank you very much.
