Hm, then the option would be to stay on OMV4

Looks like I will just do that for my RPi installations for the foreseeable future. I recently tried to migrate an OMV4 installation to OMV5 (using #38) and that didn't work as expected. Luckily it was a working clone of a VM. And just for experimenting, I already have two OMV5 VMs (one more or less standard, the other with Proxmox). I can find my way around in Portainer, but just kicking off an image in the old Docker GUI is still a lot easier, all settings for a container are on one page instead of switching between tabs with the tab buttons somewhere half way down the page instead of near the top where they can stick in a fixed position.

And, the last two commands, unistalled docker. How can i install it again?

Just from the drop down menu?

EDIT: Yes installed. Also containerd was deleted with those commands. Strange. Hope those commands have not deleted something very important

For important things you should have backups.

That requires a cert with greatly complicates things. I wanted it to be a simple install. If you need more, you can deploy your own container. As for the button to open the web interface, a bookmark solves that issue.

I just mentioned it for those who find it important, as the two RPis I have are in my own house (and well shielded from the internet), it doesn't really bother me. But thanks for your reply.

If I understand the situation and error message correctly, the solution consists of setting up a Macvlan and using that in the network settings.

OMV 5 there will be no docker menu, as the docker plugin was discontinued. Click on OMV-extras, click the docker tab. Click Install Docker, then when that's done, click Install Portainer. Then go to serverip:9000 and that will be the GUI management tool for docker containers.

You don't even have to type that, pushing the "Open web" button in the Docker tab will already take you there (unfortunately just http, not https).

Not sure either, if Stretch will run on RPI. For sure buster is recommended for RPi.

Pretty sure Stretch will run on RPi, as the RPi predates Stretch by a good part. Besides that, I have an RPi 3B+ and an RPi 4B both running Stretch. The 3B+ because Buster wasn't available yet when I installed it, the 4B because I am familiar with it and didn't wish to experiment. And that image I offered in #2 is also Stretch (it is the base image I used for the RPi 4B, downloaded it already when the RPi 4 was announced).

So, you look at uptime for all containers now because of that problem?

When that information is readily available at a glance, sure.

Quote from ryecoaaron

And how often do you have containers restarting constantly? I rarely look at container uptime.

Under certain circumstances (now fixed), my pi-hole restarted every three minutes, making the GUI inaccessible.

You should have done a straight file copy, not a disk copy. Your best bet now is a partition manager, probably gparted.

As far as I know, you can't as a raid always needs a driver to be accessible. You will need to put it on a separate boot drive.

Quote from BigSteve

I have a Raspberry Pi 4 with damaged mini HDMI ports so I can't use the video.

I previously used it as a NAS and it worked perfectly but I wanted to try using something else and deleted the image.

Now I can't reinstall the new version without installing Raspberry Pi and the whole command line copy and paste procedure.

It would be great if I can simply reinstall the whole system on an image again.

Does anyone have a copy of the old image from before the Dec 2019 change (OMV 4.1.7 Arrakis) or know where i can get it, please?

I do happen to have one (OMV_4_Raspberry_Pi_2_3_3Plus_4.img.xz), how would you like to receive it.

Quote from gderf

Click on a Container's name to see how long it has been running (Status).

That is one and requires an extra action besides seeing only one at a time.

Quote from tekkb

Not sure about the navigation on this new forum.... Hmmm....

Not every change is an improvement.

Quote from ryecoaaron

Unfortunately, we don't have a enough help to maintain that plugin and it makes little sense anyway since Portainer is actively maintained by a much larger group and has many more features.

There are however two features from that GUI I sorely miss in Portainer: The time a container is active (to spot continuously restarting ones) and the the size of the log (for manually clearing if it grows too large).

I have the solution:

(you cant finde OPenvpn Plugin , because you need to install omv-extras , and then u need to activate omv-extras to update List of Plugins)

1º- install OMV-extras plugins

how?

thats easy , you can access with root with ssh with a console , do it and install omv-extras on OMV5.x --> omv-extras.org

this command resolve install of extra plugins -->

wget -O - https://github.com/OpenMediaVa…ckages/raw/master/install | bash

then

2º - activate extra repositories

when u do all this , u can go to Plugins and update list of Plugins ,

FInally u can install openvpn plugin , on the new section Remote

im testing all this because last night I saw the topic of this thread on the forum , and I need to prove this plugin with fail2ban because Im doing a revision of "how can we do a Home Nas with raspberrypi" . Basically Im testing raspbian doing all with CLI and searching how works the cooked s.o. as openmediavault or others.

Thanks for the answer too , ryecoaaron , I could see the list of plugins to know that is not deprecated openvpn , I thought i need to use Docker too , it is a option , but plugins openvpn works fine , im testing

I strongly suggest you check again, it isn't in the extras but in the testing repo.

Quote from omvomvomvomv

I'm finding nothing but dead links, old or obsolete guides on installing the openvpn plugin into OMV.

There doesn't seem to be a well documented way to install it onto OMV5, as omv-extras does not display it anywhere in the interface and the omv-extras website seems to be largely down.

Is there a terminal command that can wget the latest openvpn to OMV 5 and install it? Or has it been moved to Docker? Just looking for a modern how-to on getting it loaded into OMV 5. Thanks.

You might wish to take a look at PiVPN.

The update itself was without any problems, but since the update I can't access the attached USB drives and whenever I attempt to, the load sky rockets and comes down again very slowly.

Quote from wookash

hi,

Reclaiming back my thread

I'm using OMV v4.1.34-1 - applied latest updates yesterday and my pihole stopeed working. I cannot access the web UI. I configured it from scratch, set up mcvlan etc. but it still does not let me connect. Anyone has any idea what to do?

I flashed the backup image (created daily) to the SD-card and rebooted, skipping some specific updates since that time (after a couple of tries).

Quote from crashtest

First, tell me you're not using WatchTower.

I am sorry, but WatchTower isn't the problem here, the problems also occur without (and I also have a system running with both Pi-Hole and WatchTower).

Quote from jfromeo

PD: Never mind, I got it working.

Others might be interested in how.

Quote from macom

You can put the SD card in a Linux laptop/desktop and enable root ssh login. You can use startpage, yahoo or google to find how to to this.
After that you can reboot the odroid and login as root.

And if you don't have a Linux installation, create one on a virtual machine (VirtualBox will do nicely and is free).
