Do you have a functioning AoE target operating somewhere? Coraid, vblade or other?

There may be another possibility. I understand that ZFS now has native encryption but I have not tried it myself.

Maybe this could help a bit: https://openmediavault.readthe…ervices/ftp.html#overview

Please open a bugreport on the omv-extras git repository.

I'm also having problems with ZFS pool exports. Did anyone file a bug report? I would like to do so but I would also like to avoid filing duplicate reports if someone already submitted a report.

Thanks.

I'm seeing a similar error message on OMV4 (4.1.0-1) - "An error has occured" with no further details. At the moment, I can reproduce the error message by changing General Settings --> Auto logout to 5 minutes or Disabled and clicking on Save and Apply.

Thanks @votdev and @ryecoaaron. If the process change is as easy as that then it's certainly worth exploring.

I have a related question but perhaps a little more specific. I know about this pinned thread: Install OMV3 on Debian Jessie

Is there another version of that thread specifically designed and written for installing OMV4 on Debian Stretch?

Thanks again.

OMV 3.0.81

Earlier today, I used the GUI to remove a folder that I was sharing via Samba. Then, through the command line I destroyed the zpool and created a new one. This worked and I proceed to create a new folder which I shared through Samba.

I looked at the System Logs. Every few seconds there is an alert from monit about the old zpool tank0 (which was destroyed) and the old filesystem - vol0 which was also destroyed.

monit[2729]: Device /tank0/vol0 not found in /etc/mtab
monit[2729]: 'fs_tank0_vol0' unable to read filesystem '/tank0/vol0' state

How do I correct this so that the alerts stop and also to update the system to remove these old, no-longer-applicable references?
Thanks.

Greetings.
What is the recommended technique to upgrade Samba on OMV 3.x? Certain applications may require Samba 4.6 or higher. Final Cut
Pro X 10.3 requires Samba 4.3.4 or later and so an upgrade method would be helpful.

With OMV 2.x, we used wheezy backports to upgrade Samba as seen in post #13 of this thread:
OMV Machine hangs randomly on large file transfers to OMV

Should we attempt something similar with OMV 3.x?

Thanks again.

Does anyone have any personal experience using FAI to deploy OMV3 to multiple systems? Any tips or pointers that you are willing to share?

Thanks.

Thanks @ryecoaaron for your help. Just sent email message to @votdev

Updating this thread...

We have a commercial interest in using OMV for a variety of projects. We are at the point where some coordination between the groups would be helpful. Understandably, Volker Theile is a busy guy but we believe that it would be important to make contact and present introductions at this stage so that he will be aware of our basic plans and activities.

What's the best way to reach out to Volker?

Thanks.

subzero79. Good call.

Yes, you are correct. The drive was filled at 100%. A quick removal of some huge files and web GUI admin work again....got into the system.

But I had another system a couple days ago, OMV running in a KVM based VM where I had a similar situation. It was a fresh install of OMV, no patches applied....so the disk was practically empty. Could not get into the web GUI. Don't have this VM any longer but I'll monitor the situation and see if it occurs again.

Thanks much for the help.

Ok, failure is happening right now. Even while Authorized logins are showed in the auth.log...we still cannot get to the web gui. The system appears to accept the admin and password combo but then the system kicks the user out back to the login screen.

Ok, I have a failing system here:

Here is a slightly modified version of the tailed auth.log:

Feb 25 12:04:16 host openmediavault-webgui[15215]: Authorized login from ::ffff:192.168.9.151 [username=admin, user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/48.0.2564.116 Chrome/48.0.2564.116 Safari/537.36]

So it would appear that Authorized logins are working. But perhaps there is a problem with "unsupported timezone"?

Ah, good. Standard Linux user accounts are good. If this happens again then we will certainly give passwd a try. Thanks.

We seeing a similar problem here. Between myself and another associate, we have seen this happen multiple times on multiple installs of OMV. For some odd reason the web-GUI admin password gets lost or erased so we are forced to use omv-firstaid to reset the admin password. However, it would appear that the omv-firstaid admin password reset is not completely reliable and very often the reset never happens. So, we are effectively locked out of the web-GUI. The quickest solution for us is to re-install OMV and apply patches right way. But as we approach production deadlines, re-installing is not an ideal solution. The passwords that we use for our testing are simple and don't contain any special characters.

Hope that someone has some ideas to fix this issue. Thanks.

No, you are not way off. In fact, you are on the right path. Almost 100% accurate with your assumptions.

Pretty good article about Open Media Vault here: http://www.linuxvoice.com/openmediavault-nas-for-everyone/

But the author seems to be a bit confused about the 1.0 vs 2.1 launch date.

Do we have our own version or response to this item posted on the FreeNAS site?

http://www.freenas.org/freenas-versus-openmediavault/

Thanks.

I can't give any specifics at this time however I'll try to be optimistic with this response - if we a few successes under our belt then contributing back to the community is a possibility and in some ways could be the desired outcome.
