STATUS=daemon 'smbd' finished starting up and ready to serve connectionscreate_connection_session_in

[taekwonjudo]

Hey guys

I've just recently upgraded my NAS to FreeNAS 9.3 stable. Everything appears to be working just fine, but with a monitor attached to the box, I see an error continually being noted (literally once every less than a second) as:

STATUS+daemon'smbd' finished starting up and ready to serve connectionscreate_connection_session_info failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

I'll admit that I'm not very linux savvy let alone FreeBSD. Any help on this error would be greatly appreciated.

UPDATE:

Strange. This morning I logged in & the messages have stopped scrolling. Does that mean the log is full or that the problem solved itself?

(sorry, I'm new to all of this... including Linux :/ Learning as I go).

UPDATE:

Ok... so this IS still an issue.. but not continuous.

New error message reads as follows:

STATUS=daemon 'smbd' finished starting up and ready to serve connectionsget_ea_dos_attribute: Cannot get attribute from EA on file ./..: Error = Operation not supported.


Does anyone know what this means or where I should start looking to figure it out?

 

[dlavigne]

It depends. How did you create your Windows share and did you change any of the default settings for it?

 

[taekwonjudo]

Set them up the usual way - GUI -> Shares -> set preferences

Only change I made was unchecking the hostnames lookups as suggested by a friend of mine. I'll attach a screen of the CIFS settings...

 

[taekwonjudo]

And the CIFS Settings...

 

[dlavigne]

Are the Windows systems in a WORKGROUP or in a domain? If a WORKGROUP, has the default name of WORKGROUP been changed?

 

[taekwonjudo]

They are in a workgroup. No the default name WORKGROUP is still the name of the workgroup.

 

[dlavigne]

Were you able to figure this out?

 

[taekwonjudo]

I haven't found the cause of the issue no.

<edit> The error IS still reporting. Just popped up now again.

Everything seems to be working as it should. As much as I just want to walk away & say it's a non issue, I don't know enough about servers to even know what it's request is about. Nor do I think that'll help anyone else that comes across this. :/

Is there anything you can suggest that I check into dlavigne that might shed some more light? Some log or report that I can post that you might be able to see something I've missed?

Thanks for your help on this issue by the way. It is appreciated :)

 

[taekwonjudo]

Actually... the error is a bit different now...

"STATUS=daemon 'smbd' finished starting up and ready to serve connectionsget_ea_dos_attribute: Cannot get attribute from EA on file ./..: Error = Operation not supported"

I'll be honest... I don't understand even the first little bit of what this is saying lol :/

Is your zpool "updated"?

Please help us....
I have same problem....
with
all old files can read only status on MS office powerpoint program and anyother programs same.
And when I copy or save as.... then, I can edit.
These problems are started after 9.3 upgrade on GUI upgrade method.

Pease teach me the way to solve

@cyberjock When you ask if I've upgraded my zpools, are you referring to the updates that are now available after upgrading to 9.3?

If so, I have been nervous to do so yet simply because I don't understand the effect the updates will have and am worried about losing data. Are the updates safe to do without worry of corruption or loss of data? What are the risks?

I'm quite happy to trust you if you say it's safe... I just don't know enough of the risks...

 

[taekwonjudo]

Is there a way to narrow this down? ie: find out when the call that is getting the error happens? Where can I look for this?.. It's been a few hours now and I haven't seen the error pop up again... I can't think of anything I was doing at the time that would have triggered it....

 

[cyberjock]

I was referring to the pool version, not the FreeNAS version.

You also haven't mentioned your hardware.

 

[taekwonjudo]

I got that cyberjock. Thanks. As mentioned in my previous comment, I have been nervous to do so yet for fear of data loss or corruption.

I will trust your expertise if you tell me that my data is safe to do the upgrade I will.... again I ask.... what are the risks?

I'm attaching a screen cap of my system info (Yes, I am aware that AMDs are not recommended... we've been down that conversation before) but that isn't affecting what's going on here. The system has been running for over a year without any issue whatsoever, until the upgrade to 9.3... and even now, the system runs fine... but I don't know what this message is telling me...

 

[cyberjock]

Honestly, I don't know *why* you are getting the error. The short answer (if I understand the error) is that Samba is not able to access the extended attributes. Samba uses extended attributes to store certain things that have fields that don't really exist for ZFS (one example is the old DOS Read-only/System/Hidden/Archive bits). I can easily tell you how to hide the error (or disable EA) but that wouldn't actually fix the problem. I'm also not sure if masking the problem vice fixing it is the best way to go as there may be more serious problems.

I have no tips, tricks, or any recommendations, but I will say this:

• AMD's have been known to do weird things. Yes, you can argue until you are blue in the face that its worked, etc etc. But we've seen things so nutty with AMD stuff that should have no bearing on the CPU that you really cannot ever argue that it's not the CPU unless you're about to break out the code and show me line-by-line that the AMD is working properly.

• You are running Plex (and Owncloud) in a jail. Both are known to be somewhat of a piggy with RAM (especially Plex). The 8GB of RAM recommendation is minimum requirements, and you are definitely asking for more than a minimum system with Plex. So I'd recommend you upgrade to at least 12GB of RAM. Normally I'd throw out the "add more RAM" and let the person stew, but when you don't have enough RAM very bizarre, unexplained, and often unseen errors occur that nobody has ever seen before. Well, I'd call your error bizarre, unexplained, and very much unseen, so more RAM is probably much more recommended in this case.

If you've been running 9.3 for a while you should run the command "zpool upgrade -a". That will ensure you are on the latest version of ZFS. If you do that and it says something like "everything is up to date" then attach a debug file from the WebGUI and give me the output of the command "zfs get all <poolname>"

 

[taekwonjudo]

Thanks Cyberjock.

I won't ever argue that the CPU is not the culprit ;p I certainly have no expertise in that area. Unfortunately I just didn't have the $ to upgrade as of yet.. Soon hopefully.

12 Gigs or RAM? Really? Wow.. ok. guess I'll be saving my pennies for a bit & try that as soon as I can.

I'll try the zpool upgrade as you recommend & let you know how I make out.

Thanks again for the input.

Cheers!

Finally.....
I have to re-install 8.3 version of Freenas.
9.3 's CIFS service show me the all readonly problem.
And I can't import already ported zfs pools on 9.3.
Finally....
I have to copy all data to external HDD.
And I have to install fresh 8.3 version.
And I have to re-copy all data.....
