Any ideea why i cant create a specific file? Its about minidlna.conf in /opt/etc.

Long story: i accidentally updated minidlna and the latest version it is bugged on my Wdr3600. I unnistalled minidlna. Installed version that worked. Right at the install procces i get error message of conf file i/o error.
The config file from /opt/etc is missing and i cant create minidlna.conf. Any other file i can create or copy. (using winscp btw). I cannot rename any other file to minidlna.conf. It says error renaming code 1..

Smth is preventing me to create that config file.
Help pls.

Try the following commands in SSH/telnet:
Code:

cd /opt/etc
ls -l


Is there a file called minidlna.conf already there?
You can remove it with:
Code:
rm [filename inc extension]


A new one can easily be created by installing "nano" via entware, or by creating it via WinSCP. Nano is a command line text editor. There is a bit of a learning curve to it, ^ means ctrl, etc. If you create a blank file with nano and then paste stuff into it from the WinSCP text editor that may work.

Ty for fast response.

There is no file with that name. That was the first thing i looked for.

I also tried creating a file with vi but same i/o error..

The /opt/etc directory exists, right?

Are you using vi as root user?
Logged into telnet/SSH as root?

What is the output of the following via telnet/SSH?
Code:
mount

What is in your Start-up Commands window in the DD-WRT GUI? Admin - Commands tab. What is the sleep value currently?

#! /bin/sh

/opt/bin/minidlna
sleep20
/opt/bin/rsync --daemon start
sleep 60
/opt/bin/transmission-daemon -g /opt/etc


I cant copy/make the conf file even with minidlna removed/uninstalled

It sounds like a mount issue. What about adding the following to the start-up commands, first line after the first sleep 30:
Code:

/opt/etc/init.d/rc.unslung start


Is your Optware drive called Optware and mounted to /opt?
I called mine Optware and it automounts to /opt then. All of the mount points then show up correctly.

not worked.

Entware is working fine. The rest of apps are good.

Could your USB filesystem have become corrupted? You could look into repairing it with fsck but this could potentially mess things up even worse.

Code:
umount /opt
fsck /dev/sda1
reboot

If you can't create that file with vi, you can create a different file but can't rename it to the filename you want, get i/o errors... that certainly looks like an unhealthy filesystem.

On my build those tools are in the path but you can specify it manually.

/sbin/fsck
/bin/umount

You could boot a live USB distribution and try repairing the USB filesystem with fsck from a PC instead of of from dd-wrt.

Reformatting and reinstalling/reconfiguring all entware apps is good too but lots of work.

I found bin/mount, but sbin/fsck is missing

Edit:
/Usr/sbin/ fischecksum /dev/sda1 says segmentation fault

A Wdr3600 has only 8MB flash so probably very few utilities included. Try repairing from a live USB on a PC or reformat/reinstall the USB drive.
