January 15Jan 15 Hi All,I've been struggling with my user shares disappearing lately. My first install they didn't show up at all. After trying to trouble shoot it I managed to break my install so I made a clean install.After the new install the shares were working well however in the last week they have disappeared again. I've tried rebooting the server, enabling/disabling docker, running smart checks and memtest but everything is coming up clear.Any help would be greatly appreciated!tower-diagnostics-20260115-1444.tar.gz
January 15Jan 15 Community Expert When you say they they "they have disappeared again", what exactly are you referring to? You can't see them in the UnraidUI or in SMB? A screenshot would help.
January 15Jan 15 Community Expert Solution There's a problem with the cache filesystem:Jan 14 22:42:48 Tower emhttpd: error: get_filesystem_status, 8784: Stale file handle (116): scandir Stale file handleJan 14 22:42:48 Tower kernel: ntfs3(sdc4): Inode r=43 is not in use!Jan 14 22:42:48 Tower kernel: ntfs3(sdc4): Mark volume as dirty due to NTFS errorsJan 14 22:42:48 Tower kernel: ntfs3(sdc4): Inode r=43 is not in use!Jan 14 22:42:48 Tower emhttpd: error: get_filesystem_status, 8784: Stale file handle (116): scandir Stale file handleJan 14 22:42:48 Tower kernel: ntfs3(sdc4): Inode r=43 is not in use!Any specific reason you are using NTFS? Linux support is limited; I recommend running chkdsk on a Windows PC.P.S: diags are generated as a zip file, next time, post that, please.

I'll try reformating the disks to XFS/BTRFS and report back!Apologies, my mac auto unzipped it after downloading and tar is the only zipping tool I currently have.

January 15Jan 15 Author I think that may have been it! I reformatted my cache drive to XFS and they showed up instantly. 10 minutes ago, itimpi said:If a drive was already formatted, then UNraid uses the existing format.Ahh that makes sense, that would be why I'm still having the issue after a fresh setup using the same drive
