RN102: No Frontview access after Uninstall of Owncloud
Evening All,
I just bought the RN102, and everything was going well with it, I decided to install a few of the applications which included OwnCloud.
After a bit of a play I decided it was not what I wanted so i uninstalled it, during the uninstall process I lost HTTP access to the ReadyNAS, and it has not recovered.
I am still able to see and browse all the shares that my user account has access to via a windows machine, and there is still an OwnCloud share (which I cannot access).
I have tried a graceful reboot and I still cannot access the device, but I can discover it using RAIDar.
I would appreciate any help you could provide in this, I am not really keen on doing a reset unless necessary as I have just spent a couple of days organising the drive just the way I want it for my backups.
Regards,
CJ.

There is a way if you have a scratch disk, but it is a bit tedious.m.frank wrote: ...By the way, how do I install a update there solves the problem when I can't access the front view?
You can
(a) power down the NAS. Remove all drives (labeling by slot). Install the scratch disk, and power up.
(b) The NAS will install a clean copy of 6.2.2 with a working web UI. When it completes, download 6.2.3 from this forum and install it.
(c) Then power down the NAS again and reboot.
(d) The NAS will update the OS from 6.2.2 to 6.2.3 on the original disks. That will restore the UI and prevent the problem from happening again.- I solved the problem. Dit like NETGEAR ReadyNAS Technical Expert mdgm suggested in another thread. SSH the NAS, an then removed owncloud and restarted apache2. It worked! Then I removed the owncloud share from the front view.
# cd /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
# ls
# rm *owncloud*
# ls
# systemctl restart apache2
By the way, good idea StephenB. I will remember it for a nother time.

Though if you have ssh working with the NAS you shouldn't need this trick.
