Hi All

Just rebooted my OMV box and noticed the webgui hasnt come back, so i went to omv-firstaid to check the nic config was good, when i try to reset the NIC I get the following error:

I can still ping the box etc and FTP is up fine .... but no webgui

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Nik

I assume you can ssh into the box or use it locally? If so, what version of OMV are you at? dpkg -l | grep openmediavault will tell you.

Yup SSH also still up:

ii openmediavault 0.5.12 Open network attached storage solution
ii openmediavault-clamav 0.5.6 OpenMediaVault ClamAV plugin
ii openmediavault-keyring 0.2 GnuPG archive keys of the OpenMediaVault archive
ii openmediavault-omvextrasorg 0.5.5 OMV-Extras.org Package Repositories for OpenMediaVault

What type of drive is OMV installed on?

nikcoultas · 3. Oktober 2013

/dev/sda:

ATA device, with non-removable media
Model Number: Hitachi HDS721050DLE630
Serial Number: MSE421RP29GGZJ
Firmware Revision: MS1OA650
Transport: Serial, ATA8-AST, SATA 1.0a, SATA II Extensions, SATA Rev 2.5, SATA Rev 2.6, SATA Rev 3.0; Revision: ATA8-AST T13 Project D1697 Revision 0b

HDPArm can provide much more but i think this is enough ?

He just wanted to know if its installed on a flash drive. This can cause issues.

You may try to reinstall your omv (You keep your configuration files)

Code

apt-get --reinstall install openmediavault

Sadly the same, did a reinstall no joy, then tried:

root@server:~# omv-firstaid
Updating web administration settings. Please wait ...
Failed to execute RPC (service=WebGui, method=setSettings).

My next suggestion would be the hard way, however this removes all config files. You may want to wait for other suggestions.

Code

dpkg --purge openmediavault
apt-get clean
apt-get install openmediavault

Beware: This deletes your configuration!

Thanks David

I might just hold off as I really don't want to have to start again from scratch !

is there a way to remove plugins one by one to see if that helps ?

Thanks

ryecoaaron · 3. Oktober 2013

Yes.

Code

apt-get remove openmediavault-packagename

If you want to remove the config as well, then:

Code

apt-get remove --purge openmediavault-packagename

If you want to see the list of plugins installed:

Code

dpkg -l | grep openmediavault-

Thanks

I think it might be webdav thats causing the problems:

Removing openmediavault-webdav ...
ERROR: No site found matching !
dpkg: error processing openmediavault-webdav (--purge):
subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 1

Cant even get rid of it

davidh2k · 3. Oktober 2013

Code

rm /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/omv-webdav
rm /etc/apache2/sites-available/omv-webdav
service apache2 restart
