Cannot delete files from Share
I have a ReadyNas Duo v2 running 5.3.11 I have a folder I use to backup documents. I am now unable to remove any of the files and folders in this directory. I have gone into shares and reset perm...
Short Answer: I had to go out for a few hours and now it's working. I don't know why it broke, and now I don't know why it started working. I did the reset permissions on the share and rebooted the NAS. Maybe it had to make a pass to reset each file(?).
But you're right StephenB, good catch. Http was enabled as a service, but not for the share.
It is now happily deleting 11,693 files. Thanks for all your help.
Did you enable http access to the share first?

A few questions if possible.
1. Would it be a good idea to update the NAS to this: RAIDiator-arm-5.3.12-T3
2. After enabling http for the share, I still get a forbidden message with https://192.168.0.7/shares. What is the correct url?
3. Just an FYI. There are no users defined in security for the NAS. There is one group called users, but it has no members.
try https://192.168.0.7/webshare
I would install the beta - all it has is security updates. There's a similar "beta" for the v1 NAS, and I have installed it on my systems.
As far as users go, that's something optional for you to set up. Alternatively you can continue to use admin credentials and/or anonymous access.
Thanks for the help, and the info. I just did the beta update and I'm getting Device is Offline. I'm hoping it just needs some time.
Hello cwiebe,
How's the admin page? Is it still showing device offline? If so, please see if you can still access shares/files. Also, try another web browser and computer. A reboot on the NAS might help too if it is done with the FW update.
