Please post the URL for:

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl status smb | fpaste
Need to determine why Samba is not running.

Also have you done OS updates:

Code: Select all

sudo dnf update
ßîgƒσστ65
Applications Manager

My HDA: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz on MSI board, 16GB RAM, 1TBx1+2TBx2+4TBx2

The status command returned:
https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/O ... 79cjcreOPw


I had done the update prior, just tried it again, and it said that there was nothing to do.

I appreciate the help, sorry I can't be of easier help...

Thanks for the info. Wasn’t helpful unfortunately.

Try:

Code: Select all

journalctl -xe
Look for errors related to Samba.

This may point to your issue.

2 things:
First, this all came about as I was considering updating to the newest release of Amahi, and I wanted to back up my files first. Given that I can't easily access my files, should I just try to update and hope things work ok?

Second: the Journal command didn't seem to be much info to me, but perhaps it means something to you?

Otherwise, is there a way to somehow repair Samba through the command line?
