wreck Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I recently moved, so my unraid server has been off for a few weeks. After getting it in the new location and turning it on, I noticed that it wasn't picking up an IP address. Moving it upstairs to a monitor and booting showed an IP on the screen and I was able to connect. I moved it back to the basement and hooked up a monitor to see the screen shot attached. I tried the usb stick in several different ports (including the one that worked when everything was upstairs) and got errors at the same point each time. Any ideas on what is causing this? Anything else I can try? Thanks in advance for any help. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 If everything is fine upstairs, but pooched downstairs, its not the stick. It's the cabling / switch Quote Link to comment
wreck Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 In both locations the only things connected to the box were a monitor (same each time) and the power and network cables. I didn't boot it more than once upstairs, after it worked. My guess was the usb since it worked once, but wasn't consistent. Is there something I can do to test the usb? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Looking at that screenshot it appears you have not managed to get a network connection. Since you seem to have something running at startup that is trying to use the network this is hanging. I would think the most likely culprits are the network cabling and/or the network port on your router. Quote Link to comment
wreck Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 Oh. I assumed that transfer information was for something coming from the flash drive, not something that was coming through the network. I'll double check that side of things and report back. Thank you very much. Quote Link to comment
wreck Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 Update: I think the download that was trying to happen was around updating a plugin. I moved the box back to the working network location, it booted fine. Shut it down, moved it back downstairs and it booted fine there too and gave me an IP. I am having trouble connecting to the box from anything other than the router it is plugged into, but I think that's a network issue and not related to the initial problem. Thanks everybody for the help. Quote Link to comment
