What do you mean lost your login? The webui or.ssh? Or both?

Ah I see. Sorry not a Windows user.
I remember in the past when I inserted a disk that windows didn't recognize, it just gave me the option to format it.
-
Uh, just format it? Windows should be able to format it

Agreed. This is the way. It’s a good idea to create a new user account in omv for smb access at least while you are testing stuff.
My limited understanding of the situation for the op is the shared folders are not visible in windows explorer. This can be the the case depending on how network discovery is configured. You should still me able to created a mapped drive. I do this fine using my work pc when at home.
I guess I didn't pick up on that.
So, let's go w/ brain dead simple something to check. Since they aren't showing up in Explorer... You did enable SMB right? You can add shares to SMB all day long, but if the service is not enabled, you won't be able to access them.

I'm not a Windows user.. but everytime I help one there is always an issue with guest shares.
Have you tried creating a user and using a user to log in to those shares? If you go this method, when you create your shares and add them to SMB.. everything just needs to be default and it "just works"

No, use a DNS server. You appeared to put in your router IP.

I would not partition it. That is more or less pointless as next time you do a clean install, you're going to nuke that partition setup (unless you do an alternative install). Not to mention if you accidentally make the partition to small, you'll be resizing, etc. if you must use this drive for the OS, just use the share root plugin so you can use the root drive for shared folders and nix the partitioning idea.
If it were me, I'd get a 32gig flash drive, install OMV on to it (make sure it's at least USB 3.0, 2.0 is unbearable)... Then use your large drive for docker Jellyfin, etc as you intended.
Generally speaking a properly configured OS, should really only take about 4-5 gigs of space.

not totally true,that is the latest OMV related:

No need to install drives under media. OMV has the drives installed under /srv. so thats where you can find your movies and other files.
He hasn't done an OMV video in years... I'd venture to guess nearly everything he has is out of date
-
You don't really say what exactly you want it to do so it's hard to help you much. I assume you are wanting it to run at 3am.. as that is what you have?
-
What message?
-
Most of the ones I fixed required me to bash into the NC database container.
Have you checked the log in your database container? For me, it had right there the command i needed to bash in and I run.

I will not change the ip to static again, I thought it would be easy, nope. I was interested in getting files outside my network if I did, again thanks:)
changing to static is fine (and even recommended)... doing it properly is the issue.

Appreciate the advice! I tried this, but ran into issues. I am thinking I might be missing a step, there might be one or more config files that need editing before/after the move, or perhaps there were permissions issues with the new Docker storage location:
- Stopped Docker
- Copied /var/lib/docker to the new location (/nvme/docker), using rsync command described above
- Changed the Docker path to the new (nvme) path in the GUI, hitting Save.
- Clicked on Reinstall Docker
- "docker info | grep Root" showed my new nvme drive
Docker indicated it was running, but all my containers were Down and failed/errored whenever I tried to bring them back up manually. As I don't have enough experience with docker to interpret the error messages that popped up, I "panicked" and decided to revert.
I attempted to restore my old config (/var/lib/docker). It would not come back up at first, but then I remembered I had to edit the /etc/docker/daemon.json file, which was still referencing my nvme location.
So now I am back to where I started, but everything is at least working well. FYI I have no named volumes. Redownloading images is not a problem either!
from the sounds of it you did not copy the folder correctly. Not sure why you used rsync when it is a simple command line to execute the copy.
If you cd to /nvme
What is the output of
ls

You've lost me there, it's my thread
I run headless, do not have a wired keyboard. I play with a lot of hardware which means a lot of installs from scratch. Knowing what IP I'm using before I get into OMV has a ton of utility for me but further to that, it's unlikely everyone who's posted in this thread is setting static IP in their router ergo this is likely a problem unrelated to router settings
I've ran headless for .. about 8yrs. That has no connection to this.
-
what's your diagnosis for all the other folks in this thread?
My router does DHCP, what's the problem allocating a static IP there?
Nothing at all, thats why you didn't start this thread.
This has been discussed ad nauseam here on why you should set your IP in the software vs your router
-
On my system?
IP is set to static in my modem prefs so yeh always the same ip (the pi was not getting an IP at all)
and that's why you had this problem. Set your IP in the OMV webUI, not in your router/modem.

5.5 years ago was the first commit on github. For VMs, I usually use the OMV iso. But a lot of my installs are sbc, I use the install script a lot too.
Man it seems like a lot longer than that... Hard to believe it's been 2011 this whole journey started. I remember finding out about this project and was hesitant because I had Ubuntu server set up how I wanted it. Volker running this project appealed to me as did it being based on Debian. Freenas went to to the pits when he left and the transition to iX started. I imagine it's better over there now, but their forums, the standard response was "File a bug report", over and over and over.. after they pulled all the .7 install images and basically forced an upgrade to 8 alpha on everyone. It was crazy.
I finally installed OMV (after testing it for 2mo in VM's..lol) in December '11. The rest is shall we say, history.

Because the netinstall is making you select the drive you want to install grub on I assume?
That is my assumption yes. When I say "I" run into this issue... That usually means I'm helping someone having this issue
Like I've said before .. no knock on the OMV installer. I just always have a netinst iso as I use Debian in several VM's... So I find it easier to just install with it then choose whatever I need for that VM. Since I always have the iso and it's fairly painless to install omv on top of it... It's just the route I always go.
I haven't used the OMV iso in years. I can't even remember how long you've had the script up, but I know it's been a while...
