unRAID Server Release 5.0-beta5b Available

Download

More fixes...

Please read the Release Notes located on the unRAID wiki.

In particular, uninstall or disable any 3rd party add-ons until the add-on author has verified correct operation with this release.

But I wasn't even done downloading beta5a yet! 

Confirming that modifying security settings / export now works.

Another weird issue:

Adding a 500GB disk for Time Machine, assigning it to slot 20 (I actually only have 7 disks, but chose 20 for the TM drive).

1) Pre-clear the disk using Joe's pre_clear.sh script (v1.7 latest) with the parameter -A (for sector 64)

2) Disk preclears fine, no errors

3) Assign to slot 20

4) Start the array, asks to format disk

5) Format disk

6) Turns green, able to copy data on it

7) Stop array

Once array is stopped, disk20 turns blue

9) I have to select 'I am sure I want to do this" to restart the array

10) It proceeds to go through a FULL preclear and wipes the drive of any data.

11) Once it's done, rinse and repeat from step #4

I rebooted my server a bit too quickly so I will redo the steps above and post the full syslog. But it's a curious problem and I wouldn't want this to happen to anyone else. Thankfully my drive was empty.

This release looks good.

How many releases after this till final?

Hoping we'll get 3T drive support in there!

Here's my syslog for the disk issue above.

To note that it's disk20 in the log.

I have the exact same issue.  I have 9 data disks + 1 in slot 20.  Right now I am on step 10 of the procedure you outlined.

Yes there's a problem in -beta5b, about to release -beta6.

Is anyone else having difficulty adding users?

I was able to create a password for the root user, but when I try to add another user nothing happens.  Here is what I see in my syslog when I try:

Mar  1 08:12:53 UNRAID login[7057]: ROOT LOGIN  on '/dev/pts/0' from '192.168.1.108'
Mar  1 08:14:17 UNRAID emhttp: shcmd (71): useradd -g users -d / -s /bin/false -c '' Jarod 2>&1 |logger
Mar  1 08:14:17 UNRAID logger: useradd: invalid user name 'Jarod'
Mar  1 08:14:17 UNRAID emhttp: shcmd (72): chpasswd <<< Jarod:"*****"

User names can not contain capital letters.  Here are the rules:

- First character of a username must be a lower-case letter, or the underscore '_' character.

- Subsequent characters of a username may be lower-case letters, underscore, or dash '-' character.

- The very last character of a username is permitted to be a dollar sign '$'

- Maximum total length is 32 characters

Put another way (straight from the code of 'useradd' linux utility):

User/group names must match [a-z_][a-z0-9_-]*[$]

I keep meaning to write a javascript verification script but it somehow doesn't get onto my todo list
