February 22, 20179 yr Hello guys, I'm trying to update my system, from 6.1.9 (to 6.3.2 now, but I tried with previous updates before that), and I've been trying for 2-3 months already and my system just can't get through the download .zip file process. I tried by clicking the "check for update" button and then "update", but as it won't work I also tried in the "Install plugin" by pasting the .plg file url in the text filed. the download process get stuck at 0% of the download.. sometime the percentage doesn't even show up. How can I update my system ? Thanks. Edit: Precision on my situation (don't know if relevant or not), I'm currently living in China, so behind the great f**ing firewall, so I'm using a VPN on my main computer but others computer on my LAN aren't benefiting from this VPN. I'm not sure how the unRaid system works, if it's the server itself managing the download (then its without VPN) or if it's my main computer downloading it and rerouting it to unRaid (in this case it's with VPN)... and my outside IP isn't static. here is the "log" of the process: plugin: installing: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/limetech/unRAIDServer/master/unRAIDServer.plg plugin: downloading https://raw.githubusercontent.com/limetech/unRAIDServer/master/unRAIDServer.plg plugin: downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/limetech/unRAIDServer/master/unRAIDServer.plg ... done plugin: downloading: https://s3.amazonaws.com/dnld.lime-technology.com/stable/unRAIDServer-6.3.2-x86_64.zip ... 0% Edited February 22, 20179 yr by Corius internet situation precision

Now, your problem is most likely that you haven't setup your server so that it can find a DNS server. Post up a screenshot of your "Settings" >> 'Network Settings" and someone will be able to help you. Probably best to do this in a separate thread in the 'Support' forum.

Probably best to do this in a separate thread in the 'Support' forum. I'll try this manual install in a minute, thanks. Regarding DNS, I'm using OpenDNS. I tried several settings but no success. The suprising thing is it worked for a while, as I have this unRaid NAS for about a year already. Here is the screenshot Edited February 22, 20179 yr by Corius Attachment
February 22, 20179 yr ok, so, I did the manual update, by replacing the bz* files on the flash drive, and after the reboot I just can't open my unRaid in firefox. I can access my shares in windows explorer though. How do I get back my NAS in firefox ? here is my diagnostics if needed: tower-diagnostics-20170222-2223.zip

And can you reach your router using http://192.168.1.42 ? If not, you have the wrong entry for the Default Gateway.

And can you reach your router using http://192.168.1.42 ? If not, you have the wrong entry for the Default Gateway. I'm using the IP already, and yes I can reach the router with this IP. The only thing that change from before is I did the manual update and reboot
February 22, 20179 yr Strange thing is I can access my PLEX server installed by a plugin at this adress : http://192.168.1.109:32400/web/index.html#!/... so, with the IP of my unRaid

Go through the first two posts in this thread as you were coming from 6.1.9 and, in some cases, there was a lot of 'housekeeping' required.
February 22, 20179 yr Upgrade happened from 6.3.1, but having issues. Server will not boot into "UNRAID", or "UNRAID Safe Mode", but will boot into "Unraid w/GUI". Choosing either of the others puts the server into a "boot-loop", and it just keeps restarting from the splash screen/boot loader menu. Didn't have the issue with the 6.3.1 upgrade. syslog.txt Edited February 22, 20179 yr by displacedhillbilly
February 23, 20179 yr It's cristal clear, my setup have no love for 6.3.0/1/2 I tested every Windows VM combination, great performance under 6.2.4, but when I update it get hit hard! If I just replace the bzimage file from 6.2.4, all great again.

I don't believe anyone else has reported this issue either. So are you stating that on 6.1.9, everything works, then if you upgrade the server to any newer version (6.2.x or 6.3.x), SMB access stops working, and if you drop back down to 6.1.9 everything comes back again? Exactly. And i can't revert back to 6.1.9 by just replacing the bzroot & bzimage files. When unraid is booted, the array is not set at all. It have lost all my array config. Since that i've done a backup of my usb drive before the update, i did restore everyting to the key. So yes, i can access the webGuy with either the hostname of the ipaddress. With the 6.2.x version, i remember that my share was accessible for a few seconds and then the bug appeared. This is like if the SMB service wasn't responding after a few seconds. Maybe what i can do is to update to the version just after 6.1.9, one by one, and see on which version the problem appear. Where can i download all versions after 6.1.9?

Look back four posts to one that I made regarding a similar issue. There were a lot things that were required in some cases for a successful upgrade from 6.1.9.

Mine is an SuperMicro X11SSH-F LN4, but may effect some earlier models too.

Strange indeed, just glad I was able to boot into GUI mode. I'll have to do some research to see what these two boards have in common if anything. At least with a second manufacture having similar issues, the cause has a better chance of being found.

Don't know if it will help, I'm using an X11SSM-F without issues and some users with the exact same board have that problem.

At least with a second manufacture having similar issues, the cause has a better chance of being found. This has to be (still) one of the strangest issues I've heard. Maybe try this: 1) Make a backup copy of /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg --> /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg_bak 2) Download latest unRAID zip file from our Downloads section 3) Extract the syslinux/syslinux.cfg from within the zip and overwrite /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg 4) Reboot unRAID and try booting non-GUI mode

It have lost all my array config. Don't know about your problem, but this suggests some issue with your flash drive if indeed you have done what you say here. Your array configuration is stored in super.dat and should be unaffected by reverting.
February 23, 20179 yr Do you have a SuperMicro MB? If so several including myself can only boot into GUI mode. Mine is an SuperMicro X11SSH-F LN4, but may effect some earlier models too.No, Asus Z-170E MB. But I have a SUPERMICRO AOC-SAS2LP-MV8 drive controller....Hrmm...I know another user that has the same config, but with different memory. I'll ask him to get me a copy of his syslinux.cfg file and see if there are any differences between mine and his. I messaged him last night, and his upgrade went smoothly.

My Asus MB required that I enable(disable) that 'slow' setting or it would not detect one of my HD's. I realize that is grasping at straws but this problem is one that simply defiles all logic...

Going back to 6.2.x is just copying the bzimage file back?
