Accessing my cloudbox-slow blinking blue light

Ok

To list the content of that folder "1". You must not use the letter l but the number 1 (one) in the command

Code: Select all

ls -al /data/shares/1

Hello,

oh geeze, I don't know why I keep getting the l's and 1's mixed up. Here is what I see when I try to check the 1 share. I also tried to view the data share that appears in the 1 share, but no such file directory.


root@fvdw-sta-kirkwood:/ # ls -al /data/shares

drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 12 2016 .

:tapfoot you again made an mistake in the command
you used this

root@fvdw-sta-kirkwood:/ # ls -al /data/shares/data

while you should use

Code: Select all

ls -al /data/shares/1/data

(you forgot the "1")

Sorry for my error. Now This is what I see. I have tried accessing the Music, Photos, Recovery, and Movies shares shown below, but nothing is coming up except for under Recovery

I did attempt to do a recovery when I first started having this issue so my guess is my files are moved to a recovery area. I found additional share folders in the Recovery folder, but it seems I cannot access them (Dan and Family). The Dan folder should be my root folder containing all of my files, but I do have a lot of subfolders under that folder(Music, Photos, Video, etc.).

Primarily I have my ripped movies, tv shows, and photos which I am trying to hopefully save.

Nice, that you could not acces the Dan folder is because you forgot a space in the command behind -al.
You used

ls -al/data/....

While you should use

Code: Select all

ls -al /data/...

notice the space between -al and /data

Further you need to use the full path, so for the recovery folder

Code: Select all

ls -al /data/shares/1/Revovery/Dan

in some commands you forgot in the path some names or used wrong names. And last in linux folder names are case sensitive, so "Dan" is not the same as "dan".

About transfering the data, because the cloudbox doesn't has an usb connector we must use the network to transfer the files. I am preparing a package that you can install when running the standalone kernel. It will enable you to start a ftp server. This server you can approach with a ftp client, like Filezilla. So you need to install a ftp client on your PC hope you are able to do that.

In the meantime I released the ftp server package for use with the standalone kernel, this server will enable you to copy you data from the nas to your PC

Thank you for your patience. I have had a busy work week and haven't been able to put time to my drive until now. Here is what I get. I am hitting a dead end when I try to access _Genie Timeline folder. Do I need to keep going? Or can I just proceed with the FTP set up and then direct what folder/files i want to download within the ftp client?

I have some experience with ftp clients but its been a very long time (over a decade). Again, I am not as tech savy as I once was and very much out of practice. Thanks again for all your help!

You can install the ftp server, download and instruction can be found via this post here. viewtopic.php?f=28&p=22906#p22852

Read the remark on using binary transfer mode on your client !
So set the client to use always binary transfer mode.
I tested the server with Filezilla client on my windows pc.
Mount your data raid array before starting the ftp client. You will be able to browse through all folders on the nas included the mounted raid array. so you can copy files or complete directories from the nas to your pc by using drag and drop.

Thank u for ur response. I will be picking up a new network drive this weekend. I have jnstalled filezilla and will check the settings and will review the other post u sent to me. If all goes well, i will be a very happy person.
