holoX Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Hey guys, I've been the proud owner of an unRAID Basic Key for the last couple of weeks. I've ran into the same issue a couple of times now, so I'm hoping that one of you might be able to help me. When I need to restart my server, it sometimes doesn't want to come back online, the WebUI can't be accessed (ssh works fine tho). I've tried restarting nginx threw ssh, which sadly ends up spitting out a weird error (I forgot what it was). When I updates to unRAID 6.5.0 last nigh, it asked me to restart the server and of course it didn't want to come back online. The only fix that seems to work is reinstalling unraid on the USB Drive. I checked the log before I set up the array again, and I found this weird Error: Quote Mar 18 08:02:31 unRAID emhttpd: error: get_key_info, 584: Invalid argument (22): get_message: /boot/config/._Basic.key (-3) Could that be the reason for my problems?

holoX Posted March 18, 2018 Author Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) Hi, thanks for the quick reply. I only have one .key file on the flash drive (at least I think I do). The key was manually created by limetech. Yes, the '._' files are a feature of mac os, I don't think they interfere tho. Edited March 18, 2018 by holoX Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Delete: config/._Basic.key It might be hidden if seen on the console/ssh You key file is: config/Basic.key 2 Quote Link to comment

Are you sure it isn't interfering in this case? 5 minutes ago, holoX said: I only have one .key file on the flash drive (at least I think I do). How do you know? unRAID is seeing a file named ._Basic.key Quote Link to comment
limetech Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 You can google "osx dot underscore files" and learn all about those pesky buggers. There's not much to do about it now except to delete those files, but we can add some code to ignore them when looking for a key file. Quote Link to comment
holoX Posted March 18, 2018 Author Share Posted March 18, 2018 Omg, I just rebooted the server 3 times because I couldn't believe that it would start without any problems, but it did. Thank you guys so much for all the help and the quick replies. @trurl Sorry if I sounded rude, I didn't know that there was a difference between . and ._ files (I didn't even know that these existed), as it says under my Nickname, I'm a Newbie.

Pjrezai Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Hey guys! I am having the same problem but I can't find a way to delete the ._Pro.key file. It won't show up when I plug in the USB into my mac (I have turned on show hidden files), but it does show up in the unraid GUI when the USB is connected back to the server. Any way else to delete it?? I don't seem to be able to use the unraid terminal Quote Link to comment

As long as you have a real .key file everything should work. Why can't you use the Unraid terminal? What happens when you try? Quote Link to comment
