Re: [SOLVED] [Old] WD Green Power drives may kill themselves

Just received a b3. I had to apply the patch manually. After that a powerdown and restart was necessary to stop the LCC to increase. The LCC is now on 177 (the tool did not reset it). My b2 (2008) has a LCC of 50, but that was after a manual patch (see my previous post of 2009-03-21 15:58 http://for...

Re: Users can reach other users home folders

This is an 'old' problem, see my post below
http://forum.excito.net/viewtopic.php?t=1280

I asked excito to change this.
Now I manually change some files after every update.
Since the updates are very small this is not a big job but it is very inconvenient.

Re: Reinstalling mysql - how?

Just executed the following command:

Code: Select all

dpkg-reconfigure bubba-album
Everything works fine (creating albums, adding images, adding users, viewing albums).

Re: Reinstalling mysql - how?

I've got the same problem. I did not upgrade via the web-gui, but used apt-get update apg-get dist-upgrade I also did not know how to answer the questions about the passwords. So choose to ignore the install errors and continue. Pressing 'Photo-Album' results in a blank page with the text: A Databas...

Today I took out my harddisk out of the Bubba and attached it to a PC. Started the PC in DOS mode and flashed my harddisk with the WD firmware update (RE2IdleModeUpd.zip). After that I used the spinup tool of WD (wdspinup.zip) and set the drive to "super low current spinup mode". After tha...

Hello Johannes, Robv I have exactly the same disk as RobV. The proposed script does not work for me either. I managed to stop the Load Cycle Count increase with the script below. Just run it as 'normal' user (su is not needed). #!/bin/sh while [ 1 ]; do ls -l $HOME/. > $HOME/wd.prevent.unload.txt sl...

To solve the problem, I changed a few files of the web interface on the system.

You have to make the script (you called Alive) executable by the following command:

Code: Select all

chmod 755 Alive
After that you can start it by typing:

Code: Select all

nohup Alive &

or execute the following command:

Code: Select all

nohup /bin/sh Alive &
If everything is correct, you still get an empty nohup.out

Running in bash is correct,
but I think you have to give the following command (where SCRIPT must be replaced by the name you gave to the script):

Code: Select all

nohup SCRIPT &
This makes sure the script is not attached to the terminal so it does not receive any signals which cause it to terminate.

Kees, can you check your model number? Mine is a WDC WD1000FYPS-01ZKB0 (output of smartctl: grep "Device Model") I just found some extra info of WDC. The models ending with B1 have the updated firmware which should fix this problem. See info of WDC below: Product Change Notice WD Green Pow...
