Union Filesystems Plugin Problems

  • I am trying to use the union file systems plugin to create a pool but it does not work at all. I tried aufs, mhddfs and mergerfs and they all had the same result:


    when creating the pool It says "saving...." followed by an error saying: gateway timeout..


    If I go back into the plugin to see if it was created it says "loading..." for a while and then "communication failure" and then no pools are displayed. The same things happens if I click on the filesystems page as well. No filesystems are listed anymore.


    When I try to recreate the pool and use the same name it says "pool name exists" even though I cannot see the pool at all.


    I have reinstalled Openmediavault 3 times and only installed omv-extras and the union file systems plugin as well as update all packages. The very first time I was able to successfully create a mhddfs pool but then I deleted it and tried to make a mergerfs pool instead. This is when everything started to go wrong... Are there any logs I can check to see whats going wrong here?

    The unionfilesystems plugin is not ported to the changes in 3.0.25. You will have to wait for HK-47 to port it.
