Unable to Apply configuration on OMV 5.3.9-1

marin · Jul 3rd 2020

Hello all,

I am trying to switch from a Qnap NAS system to OpenMediaVault.

I have recycled an Intel NUC to do this (even if the CPU is a bit weak on these units).

My first impression is that OMV is not really stable, both issues I met just after installation was:
- unable to identify the IP address given by DHCP of the unit (the /etc/issue shown at startup list 5 differents interfaces but none of them exists in the system, and it looks that no discovery protocol is enabled by default such as UPnP or WSDiscovery) ;

- once you find the ip by console, the web interface seems not working (unable to change a parameter without an error).

For the unkown IP, workaround is either to look in the DHCP router logs or to login locally on OMV and type command

Code

ip address

For the web interface issue, it looks a bit more tricky. The parameters I tried to change was IP configuration (IP address, mask, gateway, and DNS) but when I click to apply it comes with this error:

Code

On the console via SSH, I tried to retype the same command

Code

omv-salt deploy run halt

But the same error comes back.

If anyone knows where I could retireve where the data from where the "0xff" byte is loaded, or give me some hints I would be very appreciated.

Thanks,

Marin

The first bug looks located here in the file /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/salt/grains/core.py:

The second bug is resolved by modifying this line:

I am trying to look where is the next bug

marin · Jul 3rd 2020

Ok, I managed to resolve few other bugs but some other continues to popup.

I am afraid this distribution is very unstable and looks not much tested, we are far from the "Debian philosophy" of code quality on which the distribution is based.

I will switch to another distribution mode stable (FreeNas or something more reliable).

You know that all mentioned bugs are in SaltStack? The Salt project would be happy if you file bug reports at https://github.com/saltstack/salt. The OMV project will benefit from this fixes after SaltStack releases a new version.
