Unable to set static addresses, gui or omv-firstaid

Hi all,

I've been running OMV since 0.5 on my N54L and all has been well until I had to power off the NAS. On power on I had no gui/ssh so hooked KVM up and saw OMV was running ok but I had no interfaces in ifconfig, no IP address so no external access. Since my last reboot I have applied all updates pushed out to the box. I am running 1.14.

I have the onboard eth0 and an intel 2x gig-e pci card.eth0 was for wifi access, eth1 for direct to mac and eth2 direct to Mint box.

I am able to get an ip via dhcp using the dhclient eth0 command but even though I get an address I can't use any services such as CIFS to this DHCP address.

After the networking 'died' on boot I did try to re-create the /etc/network/interfaces cfg to manually assign the interfaces but this didnt work. I also haven't had any luck with omv-firstaid on each i/f. I'm also seeing a monit error asking if it was setup for http. I've apt-get install --resintall omvmediavault but no change.

Configuring network interface. Please wait ...

Really appreciate any advice/time someone has to point me towards the resolution

Kind regards,

Thanks votdev,

I tried the restart but got an error:
monit restart omv-engined
monit: Cannot connect to the monit daemon. Did you start it with http support?

I get a similar error when logging into the gui on the dhcp address and it has changes to commit :

Failed to execute command 'export LANG=C; monit restart collectd 2>&1': monit: Cannot connect to the monit daemon. Did you start it with http support?

Error #4000:

I'm prepared to rebuild if this isn't an easy fix but I do appreciate you troubleshooting!

Hi,

I tried the last 2 commands - they went ok and omv-firstaid ran ok taking the addresses for each interface. I see the IP is there in config.xml but it didnt apply to the 'real' interface. I then rebooted to see if it would apply and now I have no interfaces up. /etc/network/interfaces has the correct cfg for eth0 but this hasn't applied...I have brought eth0 up but it hasnt assigned the IP in /etc/network/interfaces

I ran firstaid again but this now fails with the #4000 error with failed to execute RPC.

Hi all,

well I'm working a bit better but something still isn't right. On boot no interfaces actually come up although all are visible with ipconfig -a - /etc/network/interfaces have all the correct addresses but just arent 'loaded'. I manually configure eth0 with ifconfig and I can get onto OMV - resolv.conf also has to be manually updated too. If I make a change to a network interface in OMV gui it updates /etc/network/interfaces but doesnt apply the changes to the live interface...same for deleting in the gui. If the loopback interface hasn't been brought up I get the error #4000 when making changes in gui.

Is OMV overriding something in networking to stop the interfaces cfg being loaded? I dont know Linux well enough to troubleshoot further...I have tried!

Cheers,

Kev
