Title: where are my files in ajaxexplorer ?
Post by: threepwood on July 27, 2011, 05:12:01 AM

Hi,
When I log into ajaxexplorer, I cannot find the files that are stored on the dns-320 (configured with RAID-1).
All I see is a root ("/") folder and Recycle Bin.
Anyone knows what I should do ?
Thanks

Do you actually have any files in the ajaxpf folder to see?

I wanted so see all the files on the volume.

I loaded funplug on the NAS and changed the symbolink link
/mnt/HD_a4/ajaxplorer/files to point to the right location (root of the volume), it works for a minute then the system overwrites the link.

I'll post more if I find a solution.

Just create a new symlink to point to the actual location of your files, for eg: ln -s /mnt/HD/HD_a2 vol1, refresh AjaXplorer and folder vol1 will appeared.

I did not think of that, thanks :)

It's a brower-based file explorer that's available on the 'Applications' tab of the DNS-320 web interface.
Most of the time, the 'Web file server' does the job quickier, though.

Hi, to make the change permanent :

- access your dlink throw telnet or ssh session (see ffp tuto)
- go to the Ajaxplorer dir :
#cd /mnt/HD/HD_a2/Nas_Prog/ajaxplorer/
- see the current symbolic link to files folder:
#ls -l ./ajaxplorer
 lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   46 May 31 17:15 files -> /mnt/HD/HD_a2/Nas_Prog/ajaxplorer/../../Ajaxpf
- edit the 'init.sh' script to change this link:
#vi ./init.sh
- go to line 37  ( 'Esc :37' )
- edit the line ('x' to supress, 'i' to insert caracters, 'Esc :q!' to quit without saving) :
before: ln -s $path/../../Ajaxpf $path/ajaxplorer/files
after: ln -s $path/../../ $path/ajaxplorer/files
- save (Esc :wq)
- delete the old symbolic link (it won't delete your files, only the sym link):
#rm ./ajaxplorer/files
- run the init script (add the current path '.' in argument. Don't worry about errors):
#./init.sh .
- launch Ajaxplorer via Add-on Management web page

Your whole Volume appears now in Ajaxplorer.

Note that your Ajaxplorer main dir may vary. Also note that, on the add-on Ajaxplorer launch page, the install dir shows your Volume's RAID nick instead of the true linux path.

Good luck !
