Strange files in my flash/usb drive

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I try to put a .pkg file in my /flash/config/plugins but I am not allowed. I tried ftp-upload and windows.

FTP gives me error: Access denied.

Looking into my USB drive, I find a few files I think is a bit strange. See picture. Looks like my Plex Media server is storing something there?

I tried to reboot my server, but same error. Is it normal that the flash/boot is write protected?

I tried again before starting the array, just after a reboot. Same thing..

 

Any idea?

Here is some error in terminal windows.

Definitely some files there that don't belong. I suspect you have some of your plugins installed or configured incorrectly.

 

Also, you said .pkg. Did you mean .plg? unRAID will not automatically install .pkg files from the plugin folders.

 

Post a syslog for starts.

Hi,

 

Yes, plg :)

I tried to install the utorrent server from https://github.com/luksak/utserver

I think this is what startet the problems..

I removed the info from go and from /boot/config/plugins

Rebooted, but still some error and the strange files is still there... :(

 

Edit: Forgot to include: unRAID 5.0.5 (plus)

Do the "new permissions" include the flash/boot?

 

I tried a lot of commands, searching for linux commands, but nothing work. I just get "read-only system file"

chmod do not fix this :(

The strange files will not go away but they are not hurting anything. If you want you can delete

_6NU1I~G
_server_.TMP
AX_OPEN_.fil
EQ3FUX~T
OCS=$PLE.X_M

Your syslog indicates a problem installing webGui-latest. Are Crashplan and Plex your only addons?

 

New permissions does not affect the flash drive but it shouldn't be necessary on the flash. Where are you seeing "read-only system file"?

 

Post the results of

ls -al /boot/plugins

and

ls -al /boot/config/plugins

 

Also, the contents of your go file

I can not delete any of the 5 "strange files"..

Yes, the webGui-latest would not install... don't know why

 

Yes, I only use Crashplan and Plex, but they needed openssl etc.

I also have unmenu and screen. Also installed proftp from pkg-manager.

Other than that I can't remember any other addons :)

Frustrated that everything is write-protected. I have to stop the server, put the usb in my computer, do changes, and back again.... :)

webGui-latest is empty. Probably because your flash cannot be written to anymore.

 

Run checkdisk on the flash drive.

Perhaps the easiest approach is to copy over the relevant files and reformat the flash drive...

Reformat the usb-stick, and loaded my backup.

Server starts fine again :) So giving it a new go to install a few scripts to my need.

Need to backup my plex library according to this thread: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=31246.0

 

Thank you all for help and hint. If it haven't been for my plus reg, I put in a new stick.. Maybe the smartest thing afterall, since this one had some issues.. :)
