Linux_Dash Stopped Working - v6.7.4

Question

Linux-dash on my RN214 has stopped working - browsing to the GUI, it comes up but shows zero CPU cores, zero RAM and empty Disk Usage etc. Apart from that, the NAS appears to be working OK.

I installed linux-dash under an earlier OS verion - I can't remember which one, and it was still working until a couple of days ago under v6.7.4 when I had to do a full factory reset and re-install everything, (another app was crashing regularly). I also reloaded 6.7.4 from flash. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing linux-dash and many reboots, but to no avail.

I would normally use linux-dash regularly since the recent problems with /md0 filling up. Is anyone else experiencing this and is there a solution?

TIA

Paul

Well that didn't last very long did it?&nbsp; :manwink:&nbsp;I did a USB Recovery back to OS v6.5.0, (the earlest version that I can recall running on my RN214), and a Factory Defaults reset. After re-installing linux-dash it was working again. I then upgraded the OS straight to 6.7.4 through the GUI main page and linux-dash is still working.&nbsp;There definitely seems to be something about having remnants of the old OS still on the system that is keeping linux-dash working I think?&nbsp;Paul

I successfully upgraded my rn104 and rn204 from 6.6.1 to 6.7.4 on wednesday without issues so far. linux dash is running fine on both machines.

If not tried, you might want to deinstall and reinstall the app.

Hi,I have tried uninstalling and re-installing linux-dash a few times, without success. Also a number of reboots!&nbsp;IIRC I originally installed linux-dash OK under v6.6.1 or even earlier. I then upgraded via 6.7.3 to 6.7.4 last weekend. Linux-dash was still working fine on 6.7.4 until I found a problem with one of the other apps regularly crashing due to something taking all the RAM, (was using linux-dash to diagnose this), and I ended up doing a full wipe, factory reset and re-install from flash of 6.7.4&nbsp;It seems to be that if linux-dash is already installed during a previous OS version then it continues to work OK under 6.7.4, but if you try to install it directly on to 6.7.4 then there is a problem?&nbsp;Maybe I need to downgrade my OS back to 6.6.1, install lixux-dash and then upgrade to 6.7.4 again?&nbsp;Paul

Well, I cannot confirm, whether that might solve the issue. However, before conducting this imho major effort to get this tiny app to work, you might want to wait for more comments from other community members on this.

I do not have much knowledge about php, but it seems, that there is a more general issue with this. linux dash is php-based to my understanding.See herehttps://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/php-related-apps-got-issue-on-6-7-4/m-p/1295287#M131320
