Permission denied during server boot when mounting /export/ folders

Germ1nal · 27. Juni 2017

Hello everyone,

First poster here, and I decided to join the community as, unfortunately, I have a problem.
I am facing an issue with fstab mounting, so here I come, seeking guidance.

Following a bad partitioning, I have broken my previous OMV 2 installation. So be it then, that was a good oppotunity to switch to OMV3.
So I am remaking my system from scratch.
That means I have a basic OMV installation. I have only created a couple users, mounted my different partitions and set them as shared folders for NFS.

This is what my /etc/fstab looks like at the moment:

Code

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=8b6028a4-3ce8-4472-b77e-60ecb54ecf68 /               ext4    errors=remount-ro 0       1
# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=b48f49e0-757a-4ba7-8e00-f09a9b564aa1 none            swap    sw              0       0

At boot, the mounting of the /export/ folders fails because of permission denied.
It works correctly when I manually do a "mount -a" (via SSH).

Here are the current permission for the initial and /export/ folders:

Code

drwxr-sr-x 4 root nas     4096 juin  25 19:53 dev-disk-by-id-ata-Crucial_CT275MX300SSD1_16431465C41E-part3
drwxrwsr-x 6 root nas     4096 juin  25 18:11 dev-disk-by-id-ata-WDC_WD40EFRX-68WT0N0_WD-WCC4EKDH4L8K-part1
drwx------ 2 root root    4096 juin  25 19:52 dev-disk-by-id-ata-WDC_WD60EFRX-68MYMN1_WD-WXL1H840CSYU-part1
drwx------ 2 root root    4096 juin  25 19:52 dev-disk-by-id-ata-WDC_WD60EFRX-68MYMN1_WD-WXL1H840CSYU-part2
drwxr-xr-x 2 ftp  nogroup 4096 juin  25 19:39 ftp

Code

drwx------ 2 root root 4096 juin  25 20:06 Audio
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 juin  25 20:06 Files
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 juin  25 20:06 Movies
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 juin  25 20:06 Series
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 juin  25 21:46 temp

So I am aware that I have a permission to change here, but I don't know which one.
Normally the mounting during boot is executed as root, so normally all the folders have the necessary permissions.

So thanks in advance for your clarifications.

How do you know you get permission denied?
Maybe post in a link the boot log (install curl first)

journalctl | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us

Try this deactivate, all services, comment (#) all fstab lines from in between openmediavault tags and boot again. You might have non empty folders in /export or even in /media

Thanks for your answer.
I forgot to add the boot log, sorry for that. Here is the error:

Code

With the systemctl:

Code

Loaded: error (Reason: Operation not permitted)
   Active: inactive (dead)
    Where: /export/Movies
     What: /srv/dev-disk-by-id-ata-WDC_WD40EFRX-68WT0N0_WD-WCC4EKDH4L8K-part1/.
     Docs: man:fstab(5)
           man:systemd-fstab-generator(8)

journalctl gives me no journal found, I guess I have to activate something ?

After unmounting, all folders are empty in /srv/, /export/ or /media/ (I only have a cdrom folder there).

Sorry is

journalctl -b

Germ1nal · 28. Juni 2017

No, sorry too, I still get "no journal files were found."

boot.txt
I have these messages before the failures, that may be the cause:

Alright, I think I managed to solve my issue here.

I had 2 partitions formatted in NTFS, that seemed to throw the install off. So I reformatted them to ext4.

I had to restart the installation, there was some conflict afterwards, but once everything was set, I didn't have this issue anymore.

So solved, I guess.
Conclusion: Avoid NTFS partitions. Doesn't seem to work that great.
