user exists

[wd9895]

Hi,

I just converted my HDD from ext3 to ext4 filesystem. The data content was backup before this.
After NAS reboot I had to re-define shares and users which worked fine with only one exeption:

A creation of user "gast" wasn't possible. Error message : can not add user, username already exists
A check of the existing user base via SSL does not show the user "gast".

What is wrong ?

P.S. User "guest" is possible but I want it in german ;)

There are several issues

After NAS reboot I had to re-define shares

This should not happen need to deepen it

sers which worked fine with only one exeption:

This is amazing

Can you read the nas data base file (/etc/nas_conf_db.xml) check if there is a node user for gast in the parent nodes <access><users>.

I assume it is not here but it may exist in

Code: Select all

cat /etc/passwd

In this case remove the related line.

And you should be able to recreate it

About convert issue:

There is a file /etc/install-firmware.log

So post it and also boot.log (if you did not yet reboot the nas since the nas rebooting after converting data partition)

[Jocko]

Other idea,

This may happen, if the firmware failed to mount the data partition.

So post

Code: Select all

mount

Hi Jocko,

issue 1: No problem to me as data will be erased in any case. On more complex systems this could be complicated.

Issue 2: user "gast" is not in xml database, user "gast" is not in /etc/passwd (that was a surprise to me, but it was there before fs convert. I made a screenshot before doing it)

Another remark in the process ext3 => ext4
Twonky server is disabled (not installed). NFS server is disabled but IÄm not shure if it was enabled. I only use SMB access by Windows PCs
The cronjobs were erased.

So it feld a bit like a fresh installation.

userdel gast =>

root@Lacie-NS2:/ # userdel gast
-sh: userdel: not found

....strange ...

[Jocko]

Ouups I made a mistake:
the log file is /etc/.setup.fs/setupjob.log

So about gast account, enable the debug mode

Code: Select all

debugon

try to create the user account
stop debug mode

Code: Select all

debugoff

And post the content of /var/log/messages

About twonky and nfs is logical at you have lost some share settings (technical shares)

So I need to find why you have this behaviour

ote: think to post also the output of the mount command
