Empty /media share while /c/media is filled #16777983
I have been the proud owner of a Ultra 6 for about three weeks now. After I got it I spend a couple of days configuring, installing and transferring all the files. I installed a some add-ons (Sabnzbd,...
Dears,
I installed the add-on transmission yesterday and the same issue happened to me: the folder c/media was normally full while the share media became empty with just a folder "transmission" in it.
I copied the data to a new created share because I was afraid to loose everything. Then deleted the media share.... I then uninstalled the add-on.
Even with re-creating (after deleting) the share media and re-copying everything inside it still does not help. The share media is empty, while on c/media I still see the files.
I fear that this add-on corrupted the file system. I believe a warning should be sent to all forum users not to install this add-on.
I am afraid that now the only way will be to reset everything to factory default. That means loosing all the data, it will take some time to archive everything on external disks before to do that...
I have this NAS for 3 weeks and I must say I am very disappointed: it is now as usefull as a brick. :(
Lets hope there will be a solution in the coming week.
