The NAS4Free Team is pleased to announce the first release of version 10.3.0.3.2853 series.

Many work and efforts has been put in to make this a great release.
An new ZFS Tools page could not be included on time as it's still under rewrite, but this will be added within 3 weeks we think.
10.3.0.3 is really a huge step above the 10.2 series, we hope you like it like we do!


http://sourceforge.net/projects/nas4fre ... .0.3.2853/

Everyone can upgrade from NAS4Free version 9.3.0.2.1310 or Higher.

README & CHANGELOG

NAS4Free Upgrade from below 9.3.0.2.1310 is NOT possible!!!
=====================================================
Upgrading NAS4Free "Embedded" or "Full" from any version below 9.3.0.2.1310 by webgui or from
LiveCD/USB is problematic, due a new size of boot partition & partition layout.
Please download and save your NAS4Free config and backup all files from second
partition if you do use the boot disk as your data disk too.
INSTALL FROM SCRATCH IS THAN THE ONLY WAY!
After installation you can restore your config and continue using your server.
Sorry for this inconvenience.

Install from scratch notes:
======================
Download NAS4Free livecd or liveusb and boot from it.
The compressed LiveUSB.img.gz needs to be extracted before you can write it to usb media,
you can use it with Win32DiskImager or any other tool.
Press 9 for the install menu and perform an embedded installation.

** Embedded.img.xz is only for upgrades by WEBGUI, do not extract and write to any media for fast installs! **
It will be problematic as it doesn't make the required partitions you do need!

Upgrade note:
============
You must associate CARP with physical interface explicitly after upgrading to 10.X fom 9.3 series.
You may need modifying your NFS and AFP share settings.
You may need modifying your ftp settings, no longer SSL is supported (only TLS).
You may need modifying your ups settings.
You may need to disable virtualbox-ose on 32-bits install first as this is an 64-bits version feature.
After upgrading, you might need to re-sync ZFS configuration from Disks|ZFS|Configuration|Synchronize.
Send Buffer Size/Receive Buffer Size in CIFS/SMB is changed to 128480 since 9.3.0.2.1375.

** After the upgrade please do make a new backup of your configuration! see: System|Backup/Restore on menu **

Syncthing note:
===============
Syncthing 0.13.x versions are included but is incompatible with 0.12.x versions from 10.2!
Every user that uses Syncthing service should be aware they will have to upgrade all their syncthing clients too.

[EXTENSION] Extended GUI note:
==============================
ExtendedGUI extension is not compatible yet with 10.3.0.3 series.
Disable this before you do upgrade!

Requirements:
============
Embedded: 2GB CF/USB/SSD (NAS4free "Embedded" is Recommended Install)
Full: 4GB HDD/SSD (For developers and some advanced users, Not Recommended!)
Swap less: physical memory 2GB or higher needed.
With swap: physical memory 512MB + swap 512MB (swap 1024MB recommended).

*Note: LiveCD is not supported on swap mode except installation and upgrading.

Thanks for the release.
I have nas4free ARM version (namely Odroid C1) installed at other city, at my close relative's home. Syncthing 0.12 is used for private transfer large amount of family data, like children's photo.

Do you have any plans for ARM version with Syncthing 0.13.x?

Arm versions are build by daisuke, I don't have that hardware around so I can't, sorry.
Soon when he is back i'm sure he will start make those versions again.

I have been waiting for this wonderful NAS4Free release, based on FreeBSD 10.3 and new PHP version, I'm very impressed on responsiveness and the usability this version actually brings, outstanding work.

Special thanks to the NAS4Free Team and contributors.

Regards.

Hmm.. it sure seems pretty snappy. x64 embedded. The new login screen is .. new. And I don't see any error as of yet. I'll be hitting it hard shortly for testing.

OK, so testing on UFS SMB/CIFS, I'm seeing 30-50MB/s on tiny small files and some crazy fast speeds on very large files. This is for writes to the server. This is via a Linux/Ubuntu 16(kernel 4.6.3) client. Gig-E CAT 6 cabling. DD-WRT router. I likey.

removed big pictures

This is for reads from the server. Not as awesome, but I may need to fsck a bit.
75mb/s

My bad. Read test not accurate. My raid controller just kicked off a damn verify(I'm not using ZFS).

Jack, is samba cifs/smb topic an idea for your speed testing and pictures?
sorry, but i had to remove those big pictures to keep topic more readable.


btw cifs/smb require a fast cpu too, its single threaded operation that goes best on +3.0Ghz core speed.
My server with such mkv files does 111MB/s both directions. That's the max gigalan can do.

Are my pictures too big for you? I'm slightly turned on right now.

My cpu isn't terribly fast(3 Ghz).. but I guess from your description, that's perfect? If I can get 111 up and down, I will be very happy.
I've been seeing dogsht transfer rates on 10.2. And it was of course throwing random DNS errors, and other oddities. Kernel/OS level suckiness.
But it looks pretty error free now- EXCEPT!

Can you check under Diagnostics/Log/Download and see if you can download. I'm running off a ram drive(tmpfs) on my workstation, and I don't know if it's me or the build. But I can't download it without it erroring out. Thanks Zoon.

Confirmed FF and IE , seems retry does complete download the log. It's funny behave
We will look into this, thanks for report.

Thank you for the 10.3 release!
It works on two machines here without issues for now.

So thumbs up!

P.S.: Log-download seems to work using Chrome.

I have some GUI errors:


and
http://hosting.morawiec.info/images/201 ... idgeom.jpg

and
http://hosting.morawiec.info/images/201 ... raid01.jpg
But only on IBM, HP works fine.
Browswer problems, works fine.

Cramin:

What browser version do you use, I suspect you use Opera?
I tested Opera v38.0.2220.41 and see no problems.
I suggest also you do update your browser.

Note for users:
Below IE9 will be problematic for sure and suspected to be!

After upgrading to 10.3.0.3.2853 from 10.2.0.2.2433 my virtual interfaces don't get an IP address anymore.

Before the upgrade: After the upgrade em0 to lagg0 are the same but: Already deleted and recreated the interfaces and IP addresses using the GUI, but the result stays the same.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Mathieu

Swap not work
File system_swap.php is one big error
In first, line 91 mwexec("swapon $swapdevice");
I think must be some as In second - where defined variable $swapdevice ?

I test full version

OK
It repairable
Line 88:
$retval |= rc_update_service("swap");
Must be
$retval |= rc_update_service("swaplate");

In firefox File system_swap.php is works
Тhere are no errors.

Firefox ?? Browser ?
I see in general.
When I check enable swap and choice device, after restart I must have swap usage at index.
Also from console swapinfo, I must receive good answer
But not working because rc.conf value keep "NO"

When I change variable to swaplate - I have all work

in log
Jul 12 21:12:58 nas4free nmbd[1875]: [2016/07/12 21:12:58.646684, 2] ../source3/nmbd/nmbd_lmhosts.c:43(load_lmhosts_file)

I am sorry not quite figured out

Hi,
I upgraded to 10.3 from 10.2

Upgrade went through, server restarted and I was able to log in, all services are running (samba + syncthing), but then after a while the web GUI of nas4free is no longer avaiable, I only get 503 http error. I have https activated from previous (10.2) version.

I tried restarting the web gui according this advice
http://www.nas4free.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1884
by this command over ssh: but it doesnt work, I get this error: What can I do?
Thanks

urza,

I face same issue yesterday. I restart web GUI from console by using "11" function.

what nics do you guys use? you all run static ip's right. could you test a time without https to see if gets reproduced?

What have we done so far today:
Fixes:
- Temperatures not correctly displayed from new HGST drives.
- Fix broken log files downloads.
- Fix some code errors on System|Advanced|Swap. (Full Rewrite coming soon)
- Fix test emails could not send as in French WebGUI.

Will be included next release in short time.

my webgui (but seems to be the whole server) stopped working, too - No erros via IPMI on the console, but inresponsive, seems to be frozen.
i think i have to do a reset...

zoon01:

My nic is Realtek® 8111G, 1 x Gigabit and run at static ip. Since there is one time hang in https within 30 min after update to 10.3.0.3 from 10.2, I cannot reproduce such hang again.

What do you mean by "11" function?

he means entering "11" = "Restart GUI" in the nas4free console menu.

I see, but my nas4free is running on headless remote server, so I would prefer something over ssh..
