Server had been incident free for about 10 days...  lol  

 

After updating GPUstats pluggin, and chaning a couple dockers/apps to use my onboard intel rather than nvidia, everything was working fine.  

A couple days later, I can't get into the GUI anymore, but as the title says, everything continues to run, including Windows SMB access.  

But I noticed that in my mnt/users/ folder  (which normaly only has my share folders in it)  I now see a slew of new folders, as if the pluggin did not install correctly.   I have the following additional folders:
agents     api     assets     cron     css     data     event     extra     icons     images     include     javascript     lib     license     nchan     novnc     pages     post-hooks     pre-hooks     scripts     sheets     skins     spice     styles     templates     unraid-components    


I suspect that this has caused my problem.  I have no idea how the plugin got into the incorrect folder, especially with just an update, since I access my shares daily and would have noticed all these additional folders.

Sooooo....     Can I uninstall this from terminal shell?      

I'm leery to force a reboot since the server is otherwise running fine and it might not come back up.  

Also, I don't know how to get diagnostic files from terminal or I would provide these.

THANK YOU to anyone who can advise.

Do you have the mover tuning plugin installed? IIRC that's what has been causing this.

Yes, I do have it installed.  Oh bummer. 

I love that pluggin, but I guess I will have to remove it.

Do you think it's safe to reboot?   If I don't get a GUI I don't know if I can remove pluggins.

It should be.

A manual way of doing this without the GUI is to rename the .plg files in the config/plugins folder on the flash drive to have a different file extension and then reboot.

It rebooted just fine.  Thank you.


(Afterward, I removed the two plugins in question, and manually cleaned up)

Thank you, itimpi.  That is good to know going forward.
