haze Posted August 10, 2018 Share #1 Posted August 10, 2018 ASRock Q1900-ITX DS3617xs DSM 6.2-23739 I upgraded from 5.2 to 6.2 using Jun's loader 1.03b. I logged in and all looked good until .... I noticed an alert on Control Panel. It checked for an update, but said "Connection failed. Please check your Internet connection." I Googled the error and it said to check network settings under Control Panel. It shows that I have no network connection. Yet ... I am able to connect from my MacBook Pro. I was even able to update/install packages. I had to manually run File Station after update, but now I see my files. However, I have to click on run File Station all of the time for it to actually run. Same with other packages like Plex, Transmission, etc. They don't just run automatically and if I logout and log back in they are no longer running. I can't get download station to run. It says "Failed to run the package service." Also, I can't turn on AFP/SMB to actually access them on the network and the DSM thinks there is no network connection. Long story short I upgraded, I can login, System Health says good, I can install packages, etc. But ... I can't actually access my files, use some services like download station, and services won't stay running after I update/download/run the package.

pacemaker Posted August 11, 2018 Share #2 Posted August 11, 2018 Hi haze, I have the same issue after upgrading my N54L. We did something wrong. Anyone have a hint where we can look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacemaker Posted August 12, 2018 Share #3 Posted August 12, 2018 Hi haze, just delete the .xpenoboot folder located in the root folder. Reboot. Enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi haze, try these steps: Activate the SSH service in DSM Connect to your Synology with an SSH client (e.g. putty) Enter your credentials (user: admin) Change folder to root (cd /) Delete the folder (sudo rm -r .xpenoboot) If the SSH service keeps stopping, you have to be quick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacemaker Posted August 16, 2018 Share #9 Posted August 16, 2018 Afaik this is a remnant from an old bootloader. Not the one from jun but an earlier version. I have my Syno running for a long time (years) now without wiping it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dh22r Posted August 18, 2018 Share #10 Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) Just want to add my two cents ... I just updated my Q1900 (DS3617xs) -- baremetal, Jun 1.03b loader -- from 6.1 to 6.2. The upgrade was smooth EXCEPT, on reboot, my network "Lan 1" disappeared. I know there's nothing wrong with the onboard NIC as I can access the DSM web GUI. Not having the "network interface" enabled, I couldn't download "Update 2" nor could I run my packages (ie. Plex, Download Station). Following the advise on this this thread, I deleted the ".xenpoboot" and on reboot, the "Lan 1" returned and everything is working OK now.

ideasman69 Posted November 12, 2018 Share #17 Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) you guys should be using this command sudo rm -rf /.xpenoboot or if you want to just see it, run this: ls -la / drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 Oct 29 08:19 volume1 drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Oct 4 2016 .xpenoboot Edited November 12, 2018 by ideasman69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainfred Posted April 8, 2020 Share #18 Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) Amazing that this fixes it, I've also had mine for years and years, can these other very old folders be removed? . Edited April 8, 2020 by captainfred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
