I’m getting super frustrated… please help me…
Accidentaly I’ve updated my whole OH 3.1 stable image to 4.0 and it stopped booting.
Only solution was to reinstall openhabian 3.4 from clean image and then copy back all my saved items/things etc.
Now this is where my problem begins…
After a successful reinstall, I’ve set up a super basic config, where I can reach the device on a specific IP.
Can connect to it via SSH, with openhabian user.
I can mount the RPI on my Win10 PC, can access the folders (config,userdata, sys etc), but do not have write permission.
What I’ve already done.
Restarted OH several times. Used the fix permissions improvement menu (did not help at all)
Changed SMB and other passwords for default (openhabian).
Have modified the smb.conf file to be public for all shared folders, so I can see them but can not write them from Win10 PC.
This is really frustrating because I did not have any problems with mounting and accessing the device on 3.1, so something is chnaged since that rlz. Or I’m missing something from the big picture…
Also the mount network drive from windows is not working. It does not accept the openhabian-openhabian user-pw combo.
Connecting to the device via Totalcmd is working (openhabian-openhabian credentials) but have no write permissions…
I’ve SMB 1.0 and all other features installed on the Win10 PC, also in the same workgroup with no VLANs in the network.
What am I missing? Why is this smb share not working properly and why can’t I mount the rpi drive to my windows and copy back my saved files?!
Your statement sounds like you are in panic mode.
Panic mode isn’t any good advisor.
What exactly did you do here:
This sentence itself sounds like an explanation … without knowing what you exactly did it is hard to say.
what the content of your smb.conf file ?
what are the permissions of the directories and files on linux level ls -lR /srv/openhab-conf/ /etc/openhab/
as long as SMB does not work you may have a look at filezilla
filezilla can be used to exchange files via ssh/sftp protocoll; try if that works in the meantime
I’m not in panic mode, I’m just frustrated because the whole smarthome stopped working 1.5 days ago, just before Christmas when I’d have a ton of things to do

#
# Sample configuration file for the Samba suite for Debian GNU/Linux.
#
#
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options most of which
# are not shown in this example
#
# Some options that are often worth tuning have been included as
# commented-out examples in this file.
# - When such options are commented with ";", the proposed setting
# differs from the default Samba behaviour
# - When commented with "#", the proposed setting is the default
# behaviour of Samba but the option is considered important
# enough to be mentioned here
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
# "testparm" to check that you have not made any basic syntactic
# errors.

Did you use smbpasswd to change openhabians password resp. openhabian-config to change the samba users ( openhabian ) password ?
I think you changes - giving public access - do not work because anonymous users are still mapped to bad user. Mapping would have to be done to a user that has enough privileges and exists in the system.
Sorry for late answer…
I was able to get the workaround with the filezilla.
I have tried to change smbpasswd for user openhabian with the command “sudo smbpasswd openhabian”. Still I can connect to the device from Win10, but have no write permission.
Also I have tried to change the passwd within openhabian-config but got the same result.
With filezilla, I have copied back all my files to the rpi so I got my smarthome up and running.
Still I have problems mounting the drive from the Win10 PC. I can not mount the whole device, but I can mount specific directories. Such as \192.168.1.100\openHAB-share.
Although that mounting is working, I can not modify anything on it, I have read only permissions with openhabian user
The openHAB specific folders belong to user/group openhab, not openhabian, therefore I would call it correct not having write permission under that user.
Please check if user openhabian is member of openhab group.
what does that mean ? There are only specific directories exported via samba so only these can be mounted.
As hmerk stated check if openhabian belongs to group openhab. This is the default in openhabian.
To check this you can executed the command
id openhabian
wich amongst other information will show the groups openhabian belongs to.
If you still cannot login with a password then together with the changes you did to the smb.conf file you are able to get the directory mounted but read only as the connection is mounted as guest and a guest is mapped as a bad user. That mapping would have to be changed to user openhabian.
But all this is not a solution but a ( dirty ) workaround for the real problem.
