Please use environment variables to customize OMV settings. See https://openmediavault.readthe…n/5.x/various/advset.html and https://github.com/openmediava…c-clamav-clamd_conf.j2#L5

You need to uninstall the libpam-modules 1.4.0-7 package and reinstall the 1.3.1-5 from Debian 10 (Buster).

If this does not help you should consider to reinstall your system from scratch.

8. I dug in to understand what it will take to do that and if it will break everything, and found this: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bi…port.cgi?att=1;bug=982530 - it seemed pretty serious and potentially installation-breaking, so I did not touch any of the files in /etc/pam.d/ (grep-ing showed 4 configs containing the modules)

You are surely using backports (libpam-modules 1.4.0-7 was introduced in Debian 11 and is maybe available via the backports repo) which is strictly forbidden in OMV because of exactly this problem you are now running into. Backports may break existing implementations/workflows through incompatibilities, because of that OMV is only based on the stable branch.

To install OMV6 on an already installed Debian 11 (Bullseye), simply execute the following steps:

cat <<EOF >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openmediavault.list
deb http://packages.openmediavault.org/public shaitan main
# deb http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/openmediavault/packages shaitan main
## Uncomment the following line to add software from the proposed repository.
# deb http://packages.openmediavault.org/public shaitan-proposed main

IMO you should consider to reinstall from scratch. The system seems to be in a non-functional state. The access rights seem to be so confused that not even sudo really work.

You can use omv-firstaid from the CLI to reset the network configuration.

Is there a way to set temperatures for each drive individually?

No, that's not possible.

Some updates that include fixes require to rebuild configurations for various fixes. These are not applied silently anymore, instead the admin has to decide when to apply them. What has been changed is not visible due technical reasons, but this does not matter because the concept of OMV is to be simple and keep everything away from the user.

If the update comes from the Debian repositories you can install it, does it come from somewhere else, i wouldn't do it.

It is no good idea to install OMV in parallel with a desktop or something else because OMV take over the control of your system which might break other things. E.g. a desktop normally wants to configure the network itself (using network-manager), but OMV itself also takes over the control of this by using netplan.io. You see, this does not harmonize. OMV was never designed nor will it be in future to support parallel installation.

You need to update openmediavault-omvextrasorg to version >= 5.5.2.

Hello Volker,

thank you for your reply. Would it be possible to automatically show graphs for the HDD temps, taken from the SMART data?

No, getting the temps is somewhat complicated because there are thousands of different scenarious out there that might break a generic implementation.

Seems a package is corrupt. Is the root filesystem defective? Try to reinstall the package with sudo apt-get install --reinstall php-yaml

It's not possible to add additional graphs without having deeper knowledge of OMV in v5. To say it short, you need to implement them yourself. I assume this is a too complex thing for normal users. But with OMV6 things getting easier; you still need to implement the RPC code that delivers the information you want to show, but the UI dashboard widgets are coded in declarative style (no Typescript/Javascript/CSS, only pure JSON/YAML), e.g. https://github.com/openmediava…c063a01c3dfca38d913cf3eR1.

Try running the following commands to check why the connection fails.

$ monit stop omv-engined
$ omv-engined -d -f

Are there any error messages in the output?

After thesting run monit restart omv-engined

Fixed in openmediavault 5.6.2, see https://github.com/openmediava…ecb3331f47e37dd130b67cffa.

You hit a bug, but good that it is identified now. As a workaround use the group name instead of the GID in the import statement. Then it should work.

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get() on null in /usr/share/php/openmediavault/system/filesystem/backend/mergerfs.inc:79

ryecoaaron Seems to be a problem with the mergerfs plugin.

Please check /var/log/syslog and /var/log/nginx/openmediavault-webgui_error.log for errors that appear when accessing the UI page. At best run tail -f /var/log/nginx/openmediavault-webgui_error.log to view them in realtime.

Alternatively run monit stop omv-engined, omv-engined -d -f and go to the UI page. Are there any errors in the CLI output? Afterwards run monit restart omv-engined.
