New setup - Missing/broken default shares

Featured Replies

Hi.  I'm new to UNRAID and just setup my server but I think there are default shares either missing or broken. 

 

Docker & VM tabs report 'failed to start' and when I look at the settings they report 'Path does not exist' for Docker vDisk location / appdata storage & VM libvert / VM storage / ISO storage.

 

Reading documentation I think these shares should be created by default? (https://wiki.unraid.net/UnRAID_6/VM_Management#User_Shares_for_Virtualization)

By default, unRAID will create two user shares for use with virtualization on unRAID. One share to store your installation media files (ISOs) and another to store your virtual machines themselves (domains)

 

I thought I would try and create the directories myself, but it looks like there is a user directory there:

Quote

root@Tower:/mnt# ls -l /mnt/
/bin/ls: /mnt/user: No such file or directory
total 0
d--------- 1 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 user/

 

However, I cant CD into that directory:

Quote

root@Tower:/mnt# cd /mnt/user/
-bash: cd: /mnt/user/: No such file or directory


Am I doing something silly or missing something?  Thanks!

 

Jim.

Have you formatted the 2 disks you have attached to the system yet?  Neither one is mounting

I was having the same issue even after the drives were formatted.  I thought it was something I did during installation so I have reinstalled Unraid from scratch, but it didn't work.  So then I thought I had too many disks attached so no I am reinstalling unraid with one parity, one data drive and one cache drive.  I will make sure that the drives are reformatted again and see if that works.  If not, I will be looking for some help!
