NV+ Rescan of media will not complete
Readynas nv+ purchased on Nov 18 2010 serial number <REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
The problem with the nas is the rescan of the media will not complete.
No media files show up on the network media player, I only see the main folder and one sub folder with no media content in it.
I know that there is nothing wrong with the media player because my 3 other Readynas drives work correctly and all their content is displayed and played on the media player.
The files on the nas drive in question are shown on any computer on the network and can be view, copied, moved, deleted or added to.
The old firmware version was 4.1.6. All hard drives are Seagate ST32000542AS, and all drives are in the green with the correct temps.
The file protocols enabled are cifs and http, the discovery services enabled are bonjour and upnp.
I updated the firmware to version 4.1.10, this did not correct the original problem with the rescan failure. I tried un checking the automatically update database the rescan started and never completed.
I have backed up all the data on the nas and before I do a system reset to default factory settings I would like to know if there are any suggestions anyone else has. Also does anyone know where the database information is stored. I was going to swap out the memory chip and see if it made the problem change.
This is the upnp av log file from when the the problem first happened

Thanks for any information anyone can provide.
The problem with the nas is the rescan of the media will not complete.
No media files show up on the network media player, I only see the main folder and one sub folder with no media content in it.
I know that there is nothing wrong with the media player because my 3 other Readynas drives work correctly and all their content is displayed and played on the media player.
The files on the nas drive in question are shown on any computer on the network and can be view, copied, moved, deleted or added to.
The old firmware version was 4.1.6. All hard drives are Seagate ST32000542AS, and all drives are in the green with the correct temps.
The file protocols enabled are cifs and http, the discovery services enabled are bonjour and upnp.
I updated the firmware to version 4.1.10, this did not correct the original problem with the rescan failure. I tried un checking the automatically update database the rescan started and never completed.
I have backed up all the data on the nas and before I do a system reset to default factory settings I would like to know if there are any suggestions anyone else has. Also does anyone know where the database information is stored. I was going to swap out the memory chip and see if it made the problem change.

- after installing ssh u must login with username: root, after that navigate with cd /var/cache/minidlna and delete the database. restart the server from the frontview and the readydlna should create the file as new
to make it short:
stop readydlna server from the front view
start putty (you just have to put the ip address of the nas with port 22 and select SSH and login to the nas with the username "root" (the password is the same you have for the frontview but the username is root and not admin))
cd /var/cache/minidlna
rm *
logout
go to the frontview and restart del readydlna server
i hope it's clear - Thank you for the quick reply will try what you suggest and let you know what happens. If this will not solve the problem will doing a factory default reset clear everything and will I have to reinstall the 4.1.10 firmware.

???
there is a newer version available, i suggest you to update that readydlna to 1.0.25 before a factory reset
you can find it here http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=27946 - I have already updated to 1.0.25 it was done when I updated to firmware 4.1.10
- ah ok the log start with the 1.0.15 version and only later there is

have you tried the suggestion? - Sorry it took so long to get back to this. I found that a movie I uploaded was causing the problem, I still dont know why this caused the rescan not to complete. Hopefully someone with more knowledge of the Nas operating system will find a way to check the uploaded content for this problem. Thanks for all your assistance in helping me.
- I am on the latest firmware and the latest RaedyDLNA build. I deleted the db and still the same result. HTTP Closed Unexpectently.
