In my RAID6 NAS, I need to add/delete some Shared areas.

Currently I can login as Admin and access the Dashboard.

From the main Dashboard panel, I can access all icons/functions, out of the SHARE one.

The main panel correctly indicates the presence of "28 Shares", but when I click on the SHARE icon, a warning msg appears saying "Your device is offline. Please verify your network connection." :shock:

NOTE: from the File Browser window I can access the shared directories

Here is the MESSAGE log file, downloaded from the Dashboard Support panel

Message log file

Thanks for any help

lacie firmware ?

Yes, updated to the last version available

Then I can not give much advice as I don't use it. We have developed our own (fvdw-sl). Seems some services are not running on your device.

from the File Browser window I can access the shared directories

But can you also upload and download files?

Do you have ssh acces to your nas ?

Unfortunately I cannot install your fvdw-sl

I can Browse/upload/download files in the shared directories through the Lacie HCI

I can access the NAS thorugh SFTP

I can access the NAS through SSH

Thanks

Funny, if all that works normally I would guess there is something wrong in the files used for the webinterface or settings of the web interface. The last point is more likely as all functions work except the shares button. I do not know if the lacie 'dashboard" has the possibility to grant access to "normal" users which have then less privileges then "admin" webinterface. Such normal user will not be allowed to create new shares and users I would expect. So how do you login to the dashboard and do you have admin right ?


PS if you can access your nas via ssh then you can use Putty or winScp to connect to your nas and investigate whats going on.
Putty is more for investigation via command line winSCP easier to browse directories and view content of files or correct them

If you connect with winscp you could look for the system log (normal stored under name "messages" in /var/log but lacie may have done it different). Look in the system log for any clues.

I downloaded your message log

Are you using the nfs server ?

There are some problems with that according your lo, maybe the "offline" message is related to that

You could try to disbale nfs server and reboot

Feb 26 08:56:41 LACIE5BIG2 ipcommd: Connection to Unicorn Dbus service failed

This means there is a problem with service unicorn, unicorn controls all action on your nas. Not clear yet what the problem is.

You could connect with putty and give on the command line this command and see if it gives relevant information

Code: Select all

systemctl status unicorn.service

can be that you have to use capital for unicorn

Code: Select all

systemctl status Unicorn.service

Thanks for your kind reply

I have admin right

I made a mistake: I do not have SSH access (only SFTP)

I've already accessed the /var/log DIR, the file I sent was the /var/log/messages.

The unicorn.log can be downloaded here:

Unicorn.log

I can disable NFS from the Lacie Dashboard
Doubt (from a non-expert user): if I disable NFS, share will continue to be active ? NFS is used by the Sharing service or not ?

thanks

I disabled NFS, restarted the NAS, but the sharing problem remains
