can I downgrade from 6.9.10 beta to 6.9.3
I am having smb issues where copy or moving files between shares are causing hang. Would like to downgrade from 6.9.10 beta to 6.9.3. Can some one please confirm if this can be done without issu...
Want to update.. downgrading to 6.9.5 beta frp, 6.10 beta did not work as intended. Even tough SMB related issue is sorted..and I am abl eto copy files properly.. Main front end admin page failed to start. After checking it seems Apache is failing to start.
I need to check on this.
Front end is not working if you downgrade from 6.10 beta... probably Apache upgrade to 2.4 might be causing this. So back to 6.10 beta..and with it smb file copy issue is back..:(
Netgear..why are you releasing buggy products and causing issues to us.
Netgear..why are you releasing buggy products and causing issues to us.
well, the whole purpose of a beta is to release to wider audience to identify issues.
If you want most stable, you should have stayed on release :(
in an effort to consolidate and identify the root issue, and put in the proper forum, I posted a new thread @ https://community.netgear.com/t5/ReadyNAS-Beta-Release/6-10-t185-beta-2-smb-issues-copying-between-shares/td-p/1665134
please follow up there and add any additional information or experience that you have regarding the copy issue so hopefully netgear team can get it fixed for next build.
- Thanks
- Well issue started with 6.9.4 hotfix1 stable. I bought Nas 1 year before I never updated to beta. I came to beta since it's higher version than stable...assumed I should not go backwards...maybe should have read readme carefully. File copy is a very basic requirement of NAS how did they miss this.
I'm hoping we can get everyone back to this thread when 6.9.5 final and 6.10.0 final are released to see if this issue has actually been corrected...we upgraded to 6.9.4 two weeks ago and in the time since have had two what I would call hard SMB client hangs on random files accompanied by spiraling system load on copying files from and to shares. Each time required a reboot during business hours to resolve. This thread seems to describe the same sort of problem. Have since downgraded to 6.9.3 to hopefully resolve. Disks and file system have tested fine after each event. Why is a LTS release with such a severe issue still in the wild? Yikes.
