Re: ReadyNAS Duo V1, unable to access Frontview following upgrade to 4.1.15

I have just upgraded to 4.1.15 (having been promted from the NAS box) and now Frontview is not available.
I have tried an OS intall from the boot menu but no change, I assume it just reinstalls 4.1.15.
I think I have a backup but I am not sure, is there a way to ssh onto the Duo to see if there is a backup? If there is a backup can I offload this to an external drive using the backup button on the front of the unit?
I have ssh enabled but I am a bit of a novice when it comes to command line stuff.
Assuming I can get a backup off, is a factory reset my only option?
I can still navigate to my data via finder and explorer and all other vital signs look ok in Raidar, it just seems to be Frontview that is corrupt.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have port forwarding setup? If so, someone might be trying to hack into your NAS.
You could do e.g.
# mkdir /tmp/tmp1235
# cd /tmp/tmp1235
Copy the PHP add-on to that directory and extract the contents of it e.g. if it is called PHP.bin you could do
# dd if=PHP.bin skip=1 | tar -xv
# sh install.sh
Hopefully you are then able to access Frontview again. If not check what error you get. You may need to install other add-ons over the top of themselves or perhaps install a newer version of the PHP Sparc add-on if there is a newer version available.

Re: ReadyNAS Duo V1, unable to access Frontview following upgrade to 4.1.15
If ssh is enabled, then it does makes sense to try it. You'd use putty from a windows PC (or terminal on a mac). Username is "root", the password is the NAS admin password. If the OS reinstall was successful, the NAS admin password has been reset to netgear1
If you do get in, then please enter
df . -h
df . -i
and post the results here. One cause of this problem is a filling OS partition, and this information would help us diagnose if that is your issue (or not).
If you'd rather not mess around with this: Assuming you are the original purchaser, you can use my.netgear.com to get paid support. Ask about "per-incident" support.

Re: ReadyNAS Duo V1, unable to access Frontview following upgrade to 4.1.15
Hi,
i have the same problem. I cannot get into Frontview after the 4.1.15 update.
My machine is a RND4000 with 4 1.5TB drives in a RAID array. I do have SSH and all shares appear to be working
This is what i get. (retyped as I dont know how to copy from SSH to here )
ReadyNAS:~# df . -h
FileSystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdc1 1.9G 620M 1.3G 32% /
ReadyNAS:~# df . -i
FileSystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/hdc1 128000 16782 111218 14% /
I wondering if the firewall has been reset?
Any help appreciated

Re: ReadyNAS Duo V1, unable to access Frontview following upgrade to 4.1.15
Neither of your systems seem dangerously full to me, but you are using more OS partition space then my Duo
Duo:~# df . -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0 1.9G 428M 1.5G 22% /
Duo:~# df . -i
Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/md0 128000 8087 119913 7% /
Do you have add-ons installed? Perhaps ReadyDLNA or the iTunes server is enabled?
@IceniTribe, if you have a USB disk formated as NTFS is it possible to copy the data on the data volume to the USB disk with ssh. You'd need to be careful on the copy commands though. Copying that way will be slow, the duo's not very fast when writing to USB drives. Whether pressing backup will work depends in part on how that button was configured, but also the action is taken by the ReadyNAS firmware that isn't starting up. It's fastest to connect the drive to a PC, and copy over a wired network connection.
On option is to contact Netgear support (ask about "per incident" support). They would charge, but likely you would avoid a factory reset.

Re: ReadyNAS Duo V1, unable to access Frontview following upgrade to 4.1.15
You could try e.g.
# tail -n 20 /var/log/frontview/error.log
If the http/s service is not running this may explain why. If you had e.g. the PHP add-on installed then you may have to install that over the top of itself via SSH to get Frontview back.

I managed to get access with Putty. Does this mean SSH is enabled?
I tried: tail -n 20 /var/log/frontview/error.log

Re: ReadyNAS Duo V1, unable to access Frontview following upgrade to 4.1.15
Great advice - that has resolved my problem.
I assume that many of us have installed that PHP addon and will run into the same problem.
I did exactly what you've described - and it worked!
Many thanks - you've saved my day/night.

Re: ReadyNAS Duo V1, unable to access Frontview following upgrade to 4.1.15
Well this is a 3rd party add-on. We don't tend to mention issues with those in the Release Notes for our firmware but I will pass your suggestion on. Ideally add-ons should be written so that if the firmware is updated access is not lost to the web admin page but with this one that would be difficult/impossible.
This is a problem that comes up with each firmware update. It just hasn't come up much on the community for a while as not many with PHP installed had been updating the firmware recently until 4.1.15 came out or if they did they already recalled this fix from previous relases.

Re: ReadyNAS Duo V1, unable to access Frontview following upgrade to 4.1.15
Well, that Addon (PHP) is really common - and the foundation for other Addons.
With previous firmware updates I've never had any issues (also using that Addon).
This was the very first time I've experiencing problems.
But with the kind help of the community (this forum) I was able to resolve it in short time.
Fortunately I've installed the SSH Addon...

Another lesson here is to keep copies of the extras that you've installed on the NAS.
Of course - that's what I always do.
But downloading the Addon a second time is not an issue - that you can still do if you do not have a copy at hand.
However, if you've failed to install the SSH Addon than you are in trouble - since you cannot install it when Frontview is not working anymore.
