TechnoBabble28 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Hey all, I am low-key panicking at the moment. I just finished removing a qbittorrent docker container from UnRaid since it was giving me problems (downloads weren't starting). I replaced it with the binhex delugevpn container and was in the middle of testing out my configuration. I had added a movie and a tv show to download and was just waiting for them to be done so I could make sure the post-processing was working. About halfway through though, I got a warning from UnRaid saying that my docker img was at 75% capacity, and then 76%, and then 77%. I stopped both downloads and then stopped the deluge container so i could double check my downloads path. However, when I attempted to go into the deulge container to edit the settings, i was instead redirected to the docker settings page. There was a warning displayed and an orange triangle next to one of the settings but I did not get a chance to comprehend any of it because my entire server subsequently shut off for some, as of yet, unknown reason. After confirming the power shut off wasn't some sort of weird power issue, I powered the server back on. This is when I started to panic. As of right now, I am unable to get to the web UI of the server. I let the server run for about 30 minutes just to make sure it was fully booted but there was no difference. In a bit of a heightened panic, I did a hard reboot of the server. No change. I then logged in to my Unifi controller and verified that the link to the server is up so it is not a connectivity issue. This is where I have just about lost my s***. I am not able to SSH in to the server at all BUT I am able to connect via sftp (Filezilla). The server runs headless but does have a cheapo graphics card in it for emergencies, however, I can't plug a monitor in right now because the server is conveniently located in the closet of my 1yr old sons room and my wife would probably castrate me if I woke him up. Anyway, using Filezilla, I attempted to navigate to my cache drive and, well.....it doesn't exist. As a matter of fact, NONE of my shares exist. What the hell happened?! Who knows?! Someone please tell me everything is going to be alright so I don't have to rock myself to sleep tonight whilst sucking on my wife's thumb... Also, no, I do not have a back up of my flash drive, because I am a dumb dumb. The last log that I could pull off of the flash drive just shows this repeating continuously... "Feb 9 21:42:33 MediaServer emhttpd: error: put_config_idx, 619: No such file or directory (2): fopen: /boot/config/shares/Downloads.cfg Feb 9 21:42:33 MediaServer emhttpd: error: put_config_idx, 619: No such file or directory (2): fopen: /boot/config/shares/Movies.cfg Feb 9 21:42:33 MediaServer emhttpd: error: put_config_idx, 619: No such file or directory (2): fopen: /boot/config/shares/Pictures.cfg Feb 9 21:42:33 MediaServer emhttpd: error: put_config_idx, 619: No such file or directory (2): fopen: /boot/config/shares/TV Shows.cfg Feb 9 21:42:33 MediaServer emhttpd: error: put_config_idx, 619: No such file or directory (2): fopen: /boot/config/shares/appdata.cfg Feb 9 21:42:33 MediaServer emhttpd: Starting services...

Anyone have any idea of where I can even start? OR If the config is totally jacked up, am I still able to read from the drives if I plug them into a windows machine? TIA Edited February 10, 2020 by TechnoBabble28 Updated title Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Looks like a flash drive problem, see if running chkdsk helps. Quote Link to comment
TechnoBabble28 Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 Ive run chkdsk but it did not return any errors or indicate that any corrections needed to be made. I am in the process of pulling the server out of the closet now so i can get a monitor hooked up. Is there anything that can be done from the CL that may help to shed some light on this? Am I able to reformat the USB and reinstall unraid while still preserving the data? It appears the issue is OS related and not data drive related so is there any chance of fixing this issue without losing my data? Quote Link to comment
Rhysee Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Get in front of the server , and see what the console says first , send some screen photos etc, as required. Quote Link to comment
TechnoBabble28 Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 (edited) After trying several things to get some sort of output from the server I decided to just nuke the flash drive. It was not giving me any output past the post screen nor was I given the normal blue unraid boot options screen to pick how i'd like to boot. Somehow, when I uninstalled the qbittorrent docker last night it must have just completely corrupted the files on my drive. Don't know how or why but I don't have any other explanation at this point. I have spent the last little while thoroughly testing the flash drive and that seems to be just fine so I am confident I can reuse it. My config folder, however, is completely missing from the flash drive and several other files/folders appear to be seriously corrupted. I just reformatted the flash drive and did a fresh install of unraid. It booted right up no problem. Now I just need to figure out how to get a replacement key since I was unable to copy over the key file. I can't register for a trial key because the GUID is already attached to my original key, but there is no option for me to request a replacement anywhere that I can find. Anyone know the proper way to go about this? EDIT: Found my registration email and was successfully able to reapply the key file. Edited February 11, 2020 by TechnoBabble28 Quote Link to comment

If you don't have a backup or the email with the original key file attached you will need to email support to get a replacement. Make sure you use the email you originally registered.
