Ive just replaced my hardware (cpu,mobo,ram) and cannot access my system via webUI

 

Ive attached a monitor and keyboard to my system and can access bios just fine, 

Unraid boots to the splashscreen where i can make a choice.

Unraid OS - Takes me to the following:

I can login at this cmd line

But i cant access the server via IP on another machine

 

Unraid OS with GUI - Takes me to a blank screen with a white - in the top right hand corner. And still no access via another machine

 

Lost on what to try next?

SOLVED

It could be that it's using a different NIC or the order changed, you can boot with GUI mode and change witch NIC it eth0

If i select boot with GUI, all i get is blank screen with a dash in the top left corner!

 

Can u put the unraid USB in a PC and change any settings manually??

Delete/rename network.cfg and network-rules.cfg both in the config folder, then boot again, you still might need to change the cable to a different NIC depending on witch one gets assigned by default as eth0.

Thanks

Will give this a go!

Ive removed both files

Also removed the 4 port intel card so that its forced to use the onboard NIC

 

When unraid loads, i get to login 

The lines

IPv4 - Not set

IPv6 - Not set

 

Should both network.cfg and network-rules.cfg files get re-created upon boot?

And an IP should be assigned via DHCP?

 

Also, selecting Unraid with WebUI, only loads to blank screen still!

With a single NIC only network.cfg would be re-created, if it isn't it points to a problem with the flash drive, i.e., it's not booting correctly.

Yes.

 

Backup current flash, re-create it using the USB tool then restore the config folder.

 

Thanks

I'll double check, but i dont think a new network.cfg file was created

Ill backup USB anyway, and if all else fails, will recreate usb drive and restore config

Have run the usb creator tool, and copied my existing config folder.

 

Now it doesnt want to boot at all, it just goes straight to bios 

 

Will have another look tomorrow afternoon  

Make sure you enabled UEFI boot when creating the flash, or just rename "EFI-" to "EFI"

Ahhhhhhhh

I remeber renaming that folder previously (on another thread i read)

 

Ill look at tomorrow 

Quick test before work, 

It now boots fine after renaming folder.

 

But now at login screen, IPv4 is not set.

Something is causing it to not get an IP from my DHCP.

 

Possibly an issue with my onboard NIC??

Possibly, is network.cfg being created? If not see if you can get the diags from the console by typing "diagnostics"

Yes, network.cfg is created and I can see its set to dhcp. 

I'll get the diagnostics and post them when I'm home. 

 

Diagnostics attached!

NIC isn't loading a driver, try the latest beta.

I'll give that a go. 

Cheers 

Latest beta worked.

Driver loaded and IP received from DHCP

 

Main page loaded but some disk were not assigned..

So will double check sata cables.

 

Would it be safe to assume other disks remained on correct slot?

You already had a missing disk on the previous diags, check connections.

All good now

Thanks for your help

 

Beta version solved the issues
