February 10, 201511 yr Hi, I got home yesterday and I could not longer access any of the shares on my unraid box. I can access the web gui fine and all the files are on the drives still. SAB etc still work fine. If I type in the IP of the unraid box into either windows explorer or linux file manager I just get back a prompt that its not available. Any one have any idea what to try? thanks in advance.
February 10, 201511 yr have you tried doing a reboot of the unRAID system? it only takes a few minutes and often has a way - at least for me - of clearing up some strange behavior.
February 10, 201511 yr Or you might just try stopping and restarting the array to see if SMB will get restarted.
February 10, 201511 yr Author The first thing I did was a full shutdown of unraid. It came back on line and Web guide etc work fine and I can browse the drives in the website. Even plex media server still works. That led me to think permission had become corrupt so I filled the steps in the fax to reset the permissions then after a reboot no improvement. Thanks for the help so far
February 12, 201511 yr Author ok, unmenu is showing samba not started. I tried to start it in unmenu I got the following in the logs Feb 12 18:33:51 N40L logger: /usr/sbin/exportfs -r Feb 12 18:33:51 N40L logger: /usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd 8 Feb 12 18:33:51 N40L logger: /usr/sbin/rpc.mountd Feb 12 18:33:51 N40L mountd[27483]: Kernel does not have pseudo root support. Feb 12 18:33:51 N40L mountd[27483]: NFS v4 mounts will be disabled unless fsid=0 Feb 12 18:33:51 N40L mountd[27483]: is specfied in /etc/exports file.
February 13, 201511 yr Syslog is now attached. thanks for the help so far! It looks as though there is some corruption on the flash drive Feb 10 22:25:21 N40L kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck. Feb 10 22:25:21 N40L kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): error, fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 1378201) Feb 10 22:25:21 N40L kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): Filesystem has been set read-only Feb 10 22:25:21 N40L kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): error, fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 1378201) The normal way to fix this is to plug the flash drive into a PC/Mac and let a checkdsk correct the problem.
February 16, 201511 yr Author thanks everyone, it is solved. it was a corrupt flash drive! plugged it into my windows machine and it "automagicly" scanned and fixed it!
