I've installed File Browser using the OMV-Extras and setup the the share to be my main share. However, when launching file browser it says 'It feels lonely here'.. and doesn't show my files, however I can see It's able to access my share as it shows I've used 2.67TB of 5.41TB.
File Browser can see share but not show files.

It could be a permissions problem. Make sure that the permissions of that folder allow access to the users group.

I didn't have the permissions set before, but I have now setup a group which includes 'filebrowser' to have full access to the share. Still no success however.

What is the output of
ls -al [path_to_your_sharedfolder]
Replace [path_to_your_sharedfolder] with the actual path to the folder you have set in the filebrowser plugin

Don't be afraid to show the full output. No hacker can take advantage of that information and you facilitate the help
I "guess" your shared folder is the second one. The owner is root and the group is root. In addition, it only has read permissions for the group. You must solve that.
Give it 775 permissions and the group should be users, then the Filbrowser user (belonging to the user group) will be able to see and write to that folder.

Added 775 and Users group but no luck.
Used the following commands:
chown :users /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-ab8d7a61-e6ec-4952-a9b1-a96da80bea62/MojoFiles
chmod 775 /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-ab8d7a61-e6ec-4952-a9b1-a96da80bea62/MojoFiles -
What is the output now of
ls -al /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-ab8d7a61-e6ec-4952-a9b1-a96da80bea62/

I've just done some troubleshooting, and my bad. Actually file browser is working fine. I've added a file to my share using FTP and it appeared in filebrowser file.
What has actually happened is now the files on my share have gone missing. They're obviously still there as the drive has a couple TB used up still.. but now I'm usure what happened. I used to be able to see all the files in the SMB share, and now I can't see any of the previous files...
-
Update: I changed my shared folder relative path from 'Mojo Files' to 'MojoFiles' as NFS did not like the spacing, however by doing this, it messed up the relationship of my files.
Putting this back to the original has fixed my issues.

I guess your configuration of shared folders and samba is not done correctly. take a look here https://wiki.omv-extras.org/do…#creating_a_network_share maybe it will solve your doubts.
Don't worry about deleting files in GUI. Settings in GUI will never delete any files. This security measure was taken a long time ago. You can only delete files from CLI.
Maybe this will also help you if you need to restore permissions of entire folders. [How-to] Use the openmediavault-resetperms plugin

My config worked well, however it was when I tired to create a NFS share and got the message '500 - Internal Server Error The relative path of the shared folder 'MojoFiles' contains blanks, I decided to recify this by removing the space in the relative path, however I didn't know this would have a knock-on effect to actually create a new directory completely.
Looking now to create a new share without a space in the relative path and move all the files over.
Thanks for all your help.
