  • OMV been running happily for a few weeks now, but decided I want ftp access. Since it is now a plugin and not automatically installed, I tried to install the 'openmediavault-ftp 6.0-3' plugin, but got a big red error dialog complaining about dependencies.


    System was then left with ftp showing as an available 'Service', but trying to do anything with it and web interface just complained about page not being there. So the installation was incomplete and unusable.


    Nothing obvious in the logs and ended up removing the plugin.


    Not having ftp is not the biggest deal in the world, but it is handy to allow file editing direct on my Mac, so would appreciate it if anyone can help sort this.

  • I also restarted the server and immediately after writing the above, I thought I'd try to install the plugin again.


    It is wonderful the effect that opening a thread to ask for help has on a problem. The install ran straight through without error and I can now configure the ftp service. :)


    All's well that end's well.

  • In my case, in plugins there is not even the option to install ftp. I've restarted hundreds of times. I've already updated everything I needed to update and nothing. There is no ftp plugin to install. Now I don't know what I do. What's worse is that I have another installation from scratch on another PC at work. I did all the updates, installed the extras and installed ftp without any problems, but on my PC at home the ftp plugin doesn't appear. And both PCs have the same version of ovm.
