Upgrade to 6.4 - Webui keeps cycling Array Started - Array Undefined

[neurocis]

rootfs is reporting full???, webui does not load array info, flips from array undefined to array started ... diag attached. Totally useless release.

 

Nevermind, can't even attach to get the diag file ... Can't produce diag from the webui ...

So looks like all drives are mounted except cache.

 

No shares available.

 

Some Log:

 

Nevermind, can't cut and paste log out of the window ... OK this is very frustrating and not what I have come to expect from unRAID over my 7 years using it.

Diagnostic: (multiple failures while generating from CLI):

The diagnostics is all empty files.

Regarding your cache device. Did you use UD and formatted the disk with it before turning it to cache device?

 

Ps. Try starting in safemode

I cannot recall if I used UD or not, this is my primary unRAID and been around for years. Will try safemode if some other avenues fail (as this is a headless machine).

 

Can one set the next reboot to be safe mode via a flag somewhere?

 

Thanks!

You need to take out the flash device and put it in your PC.

Edit the file /syslinux/syslinux.cfg and move the line menu default under the section safemode.

default menu.c32
menu title Lime Technology, Inc.
prompt 0
timeout 50
label unRAID OS
  kernel /bzimage
  append initrd=/bzroot
label unRAID OS GUI Mode
  kernel /bzimage
  append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui
label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins, no GUI)
  menu default
  kernel /bzimage
  append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode
label unRAID OS GUI Safe Mode (no plugins)
  kernel /bzimage
  append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui unraidsafemode
label Memtest86+
  kernel /memtest

The above will let unRAID start in safemode without plugins and GUI.

[neurocis]

OK, safe mode likes me so it's got to be a plugin (FYI I nano'd the syslinux.cfg via the webgui terminal, that new feature I DO LIKE VERY MUCH).

 

Just reformatted my cache drive & copying its data back to it now.

 

Once cache copies I will reboot and then tomorrow pick this up again and determine which plugin ... I have a diag from before that may have the plugins listed ...

Known plugins which may cause problems are:

 

- Preclear

- S3 sleep

 

Best to uninstall these plugins for the time being.

On the path to recovery, thank's for your help!
