Cannot install ANY apps or delete ReadyNAS 102
Hi brains trust,
I'm at a loss. I started having trouble with Plex were the server would automatically turn off after 5 minutes.
I've been trying to trouble shoot and get it back to running,...

I thought I better close this thread out for anyone reading in the future.
I backed up as much as I could and factory reset the NAS and started again, all problems resolved and back to running how it should be.
Thanks to the tips and help provided here, but in the end, it was a factory reboot that resolved the issue.

I really don't want to have to factory reset as I don't have the room to back up my data.
That is a dangerous strategy, since RAID simply isn't enough to protect your data. Something to consider...

Have reverted my firmware back to 6.9.4 Hotfix 1, still the same problem. I cannot install anything, upload new apps for install, or delete apps.
Was plex the only app you'd installed? If not, then what others?
Also, do you have the Antivirus service or the DLNA service enabled on the NAS?
Perhaps PM JohnCM_S or Marc_V and ask them if they are willing to analyze your logs.

I don't really want to factory reset, and RAID won't even save my data as I'm currently running RAID0 (the one where the drives are added together, not mirrored, I can't remember which denomination that is). But I'm really getting to the end of my rope with it.
Not running antivirus, however ReadyDLNA is enabled in Autoscan.
Have send my logs to Marc_V after he send a PM, hopefully a way forward can be found.
Thanks

Any luck on reviewing my logs at all?
If anyone else is interested, they're here:

I redacted the log link, they shouldn't be posted publicly here.
apt_history.log suggests the problem began here:

dpkg.log shows half-installed and half-configured statuses after that.
