6.2.3 Update: Shares, user account gone, unregistered, can't connect to GUI

Featured Replies

Not sure if it's a bug but thought I'd report it.

 

I just updated from 6.2.2 to 6.2.3. I only have one user created for user shares and that's gone.

 

Not a biggie, I only have that one user to set up again.

 

After creating the user, checking the user shares show the user attached with the right permissions so I didn't have to set up permissions again.

This is probably an issue with your USB flash device.  Suggest you plug into a PC, make a backup, and run file system check.

I shut it down, plugged the USB (Sandisk Ultra Fit 16GB) into my Mac, run Disk Utility.

 

It fixed an error, I turned on the NAS with the flash drive. And I lost all my array device assignment. Consequently I'm not seeing any dockers. My user is also gone.

I see files in the USB drive but nothing that looks like a log file from booting up.

 

What can I do next to troubleshoot and fix this?

On your flash drive, what do you see in your /config folder?  There should be stuff in cfg files that you can look into to see the info.

Just tried to SSH into the NAS and got this:

I had the nginx-letsencrypt docker running before, could that be why this is happening?

  • Author

Updating to 6.2.4 didn't fix anything.

Likely, some of the ssh host key files in your /boot/config/ssh folder got corrupted/erased and thus unraid regenerated those files, hence the error about the changed host key. Just clean up the file (line 4, and maintain the line endings)

/Users/Vurtopia/.ssh/known_hosts on you Mac.

/Users/Vurtopia/.ssh/known_hosts on you Mac.

 

This is what I'm seeing with lines 4 and 5:

How do I clean it up? Make it like:

? Assuming = is the line ending you're referring to?

Just delete the whole lines.

Sorry, there are no issues with line endings as you are using a Mac. (that's a corss Windows/Linux issue)

Thank you, that worked!

 

Now to figure out the rest which is more perplexing.

  • Author

I'm getting these random errors at different times:

 

I would reboot and cannot access the web gui at tower.local.

I see input/output error when I connect the NAS to a monitor.

The OS appears are unregistered.

There was an Disabling IRQ #6 or 16 (Don't remember right now).

 

What am I suppose to do? Would a flash drive problem be causing all this? How have I had it running for 2 weeks until this update/reboot??

The fixed error on your USB flash drive might have caused a bunch of config files to become lost, which would explain the ssh and drive assignment issues. You might need to set it up from scratch and copy in the missing key file from your email.

  • Author

I'm seeing the .cfg files for my shares in the /shares folder on the USB.

  • Author

This might be too late because I've rebooted several times, but I'm attaching a zip of the logs.

Bump!

  • Author

This is extremely frustrating.

 

I thought maybe it's a flash drive problem and would try a different drive except of course the key is locked to the first flash drive.

 

So how am I suppose to troubleshoot?

 

I don't understand how people are using unRAID for business if troubleshooting a flash drive or getting support is so difficult.  >:(

Actually, your current diagnostics show that its in Trial mode. Hence my initial reply:

Since the cfg file for the shares are present, your shares should be available right away, once the OS is registered (either as a Trial or with your original key) and array is started. So locate your original key (Plus.key or Pro.key file) and copy it into the config directory of the flash drive.

  • Author

It's in trial mode because I've had it for 2 weeks.

 

When I first had unRAID running I had issues installing the trial key, error-1.

 

I remember going into my BIOS and changing the boot option for the SANDISK to "Forced FDD" and disabled "UEFI".

 

I also manually copied the trial key onto the flash drive.

 

That seemed to work. I set up my shares, installed the dockers had unRAID running for 2 weeks until I updated to 6.2.3.

 

The reboot after the update is when all these problems began.

 

But the situation is the same when the system appears registered and unregistered: My shares are gone, user is gone, dockers are gone. But my Community Application plug-in exists. So something is persisting from before all this happened.

Backup your config folder, do a fresh install, and restore your config folder.

  • Author

Fresh install meaning:

 

Download the 6.2.4 files, go through the prep for the USB flash drive, and then do I

 

1) boot up with that first, shut down, copy the old config to the flash drive and boot up again, or

 

2) copy the old config to the newly prepared USB flash drive and boot up with it?

2) copy the old config to the newly prepared USB flash drive and boot up with it?

Your diagnostic looks like it is missing some config files, so I am trying to get them back.
  • Author

I did what you said.

 

Can't log into the web gui, tower.local does not resolve. Can't access with the IP too.

 

From the Mac terminal, pinging tower.local returns nothing. But pinging the IP address works.

 

I can also SSH using the IP, logging in as "root@Tower".

 

I ran the "diagnostics" command and got this:

 

root@Tower:~# diagnostics
Starting diagnostics collection... mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/boot/logs’: Input/output error
done.
ZIP file '/boot/logs/tower-diagnostics-20161107-2232.zip' created.

 

No ZIP file on the flash drive.

 

Does this mean the flash drive is no good?

 

Or I can try the remaining USB ports, I've been using the same USB port since the first install.

looks like your flash drive is either full or still has some issues. Try using a different flash drive.

If tower.local does not resolve. access the web ui using IP address.
