Hello,

 

I am not getting this error. 

 

 

There are two things I recently did that could have caused this.

 

1. A few days ago I tried moving my docker.img to an unassigned device drive.  I never deleted the docker image from its default location and didnt run any commands to move it except Rsync to transfer the file and I changed the docker path under the docker setting.  However, I did not notice a Fix Common Problems Error at the time. 

 

2. I added a 10GBE nic.  When I added the NIC it obviously changed my IP address.  In my router from ATT (bgw210-700) I had a reservation for my IP address.  I removed the reservation and anything associated with that device under NAT/GAMING but when I try to assign the new NIC the same IP address, the IP address is missing from the list.  So to work around this I statically assigned it an IP address.  I pointed the Gateway and DNS to my router.  Still got the error so I switched DNS to google dns 8.8.8.8.

 

I am still getting this error.  How do I fix this?

Nevermind. For some reason Unraid did not like my static IP. When I switched it to DHCP that fixed the issue.

Just to add some info to this post, I had the something similar.

 

For any strange reason DNS addresses were not resolving, so I had to add DNS servers manually to my NIC. Your IP address can remain in auto mode.

 

Cheers!
