Folder Creation Failure Oct 5, 2007 17:14:19 GMT 7

Just a quick question.

I know we are waiting for a new FW 2.00.03 due to module installation probs, but now I have another issue.

just tried to create some new folders but only two of them have appeared!! All attempts to create other folders result in a "Folder creation successfull, please enable ACL settings" message, but when I click the "OK" button I am returned to the Folder screen which shows me that the newly created folder has vanished!!

Any ideas please? Should I be flashing back to 2.00.00.11, or is the NFS service broken in that version?

P.S. I have since tried re-booting the 5200 and a complete shutdown and startup without change. In fact things are now worse. I deleted 1 of the 2 folders that I managed to create and now it won't let me re-create even that folder.

Cheers, Jet.

Just as an update.

In an attempt to fix this I used the Thecus Wiki reset script to flash the firmware back to 2.00.00.11 (the iSCSI version). Followed the instructions to the letter with an cheapy "Easy Disk" USB2 stick - no luck, firmware would not update.

Tried a different USB stick (Freecom Databar) AND formatted it to plain old FAT (not FAT32) and tried again - worked perfectly!! I think there may be an issue here with non suitable USB sticks.
Certainly the cheapy USB stick does not work that brilliantly in my Vista machines.

Cheers. Jet.

Hi

Another update.

Flash successful but no difference to Folder situation - still cannot create any folders.

Any ideas anyone? Anyone else with this problem? Where can I clear the logs page and messages?

BTW, where can I get FW 1.00.08 or 1.00.10 to try flashing with that?

Many thanks, Jet.

Hi again.

Just another quick update.

Performed factory reset and Reboot - No difference.

Delete the first folder that I created (which had about 20Gig of data in it) and start again - Success!! Now able to create folders. ;D ;D ;D

Don't ask me, but this Thecus box obviously has a number of issues still.

BTW. does anybody know if there are any probs with FW 2.00.00.11 please?? for example, does NFS work?

Cheers, Jet.
