Cannot log in to Dashboard

WD Legacy Products My Book Live Duo

Since a couple of weeks ago I cannot log in to dashboard, I get to the log on page but when entering the password it returns me to the log on page, it is not returning an incorrect password message which it does if I do use a wrong password,

I’ve tried doing a reset with the button on the back but it reboots to the same condition with the password retained, I have done a backup of the drive & have SSH access.

I tried to run the script /usr/local/sbin/factoryRestore.sh noreformat & 

I’m getting  the following error:

MyBookLiveDuo:~# /usr/local/sbin/factoryRestore.sh: line 34: echo: write error: No space left on device

I have no idea why I’m getting this, do I need to free up some space & if so, what & where?

This seems odd to me as well

have you tried using different browsers?

Well it seems to have reset itself overnight, I tried again & the login page appeared for initial setup (ie: with no password)   I then clicked to continue & only got a blank page,  it has also lost SSH access.

 I waited a couple of hours & then managed to shut it down with the quickview status bar. I restarted it & now 192.168.0.8 resolves to 192.168.0.8/UI/ with just a blank page.

Same on Chrome, IE9 & Firefox. 

Seems to have a life of it’s own, sick to death of the thing I only got a replacement A Drive RMA last month, worst piece of hardware I’ve ever bought.

Well THAT ain’t good at all.

Something filled up your root mountpoint!

ALL MANNER of weirdness will happen when a file system gets full.

Mine, on the other hand, is only 59% full.

BIGNAS3:~# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md1 1.9G 980M 846M 54% /

Things that are in the root partition:

/bin
/boot
/debootstrap
/etc
/home
/lib
/lost+found
/opt
/root
/sbin
/selinux
/srv
/usr
/var

 If you can manage to get back into the SSH, you need to find out what’s filled it up and clear it out.

… but beware, that’s where all the internal OS is…

So that you can compare, here’s where the space “should” be allocated:

BIGNAS3:/# du -xsh *
5.0M bin
7.2M boot
4.0K debootstrap
5.1M etc
12K home
19M lib
16K lost+found
4.0K opt
48K root
8.2M sbin
4.0K selinux
4.0K srv
364M usr
538M var
