Another webui is dead post. I tried searching the forums but nothing I found works.  This is a brand new install.  I'm currently trying to evaluate UNRAID. It comes up, gets a DHCP address but all web browsers (chrome, firefox, IE) cannot load the page. Chrome says ERR_CONNECTION_RESET I can ping, and ssh into it.  Attached is my syslog.  I've rebooted the server too many times to count, let it sit overnight, nothing works. Anyone have any ideas?

syslog.txt

another interesting thing here is I changed the network.cfg to statically assign the ip address according to the instructions here but it continues to grab a dhcp address every time.

Once the server was back up, I looked in /boot/config/ ad noticed the config file wasn't there.  I created it, rebooted the system with

shutdown -r now

and when it came back up the config file was gone again.  Its almost like its not writing anything to the usb drive.

take the USB out and run chkdsk on a Windows machine.

Are you sure you prepared the flash correctly?

Dec 29 10:43:52 Tower kernel: FAT-fs (sdb1): bogus number of reserved sectors
Dec 29 10:43:52 Tower kernel: FAT-fs (sdb1): Can't find a valid FAT filesystem

Must be FAT or FAT32, volume name UNRAID (all caps), files and folder structure same as in the downloaded zip file.

 

If so, then flash is corrupt or something. Maybe try to fix it with checkdisk, or try a USB2 port, or another flash drive.

Yes I've tried formatting FAT, FAT32, and ntfs just for shits.  I've tried a Sandisk Cruzer Glide 16GB and some cheap Centon 2GB.  I think I'm going to try the HP Formatter utility after chkdsk and see if that works.

Woo Hoo!  I believe it was the HP Format Utility that saved me here.  Thanks for the suggestions all!
