Amahi Forums

Hi Everyone -

I (finally!) reinstalled Amahi to the latest clean platform this past weekend on F23.

Everything seemed to be working great at first, but I've run into issues where Samba would slowly stop working. It would almost seem to degrade. Looking at systemctl status it appeared to create more and more processes until finally (typically overnight) it grinds to a halt affecting Plex Media server etc etc.

So I've been rebooting it pretty much daily (not a solution).

I've also noticed that the mount_shares_locally script doesn't function all the time, and now it won't stop.

System paste info is here: https://da.gd/bLp0

I took a look at the smbd.log file and notice the following error that keeps occuring:

[2017/03/08 16:28:46.766557, 0] ../lib/util/become_daemon.c:124(daemon_ready) STATUS=daemon 'smbd' finished starting up and ready to serve connections
DBI connect('database=hda_production;host=localhost','amahihda',...) failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2 "No such file or directory") at /usr/share/hda-platform/hda-usermap line 68.

Can someone point me in the right direction to correct this MySQL issue w.r.t. Samba?

Thanks!

Have you do an OS update? If not, recommend you do: Sometimes application package versions get out of sync and cause issues.

Also verify that MariaDB is running: If not, you can do: Then check it's status again.

The server is up to date, I had run dnf update when I first finished the install, but did double check it and confirmed all dependencies were resolved and "nothing to do".

MariaDB is also running.

A physical reboot of the server has solved the problem again temporarily. I'll continue to investigate.

Sounds good.

Let us know how it goes.


BTW, I noticed something in the system info you provided:

Those errors could be part of your issue.

Do the following to ensure you have the latest Greyhole installed: Also check the /var/log/greyhole.log file for errors.

Also with the mount_shares_locally, verify that you installed it correctly and didn't miss any steps.
