Hello everyone.
I had installed osmc on my RPi2. I also had installed samba and transmission
1TB disk was connected via usb.So I was able to see shares from any device(android,osx,ios,windows) in my network.
Everything worked fine until I did last update.
Since that moment I don’t have access to shares.
I did clean re-install osmc using images 2016.04.1 and 2016.02.3. Installation is ok.
But I can’t install samba.
After command: osmc@osmc:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
I receive below output:
[…] Restarting nmbd (via systemctl): nmbd.serviceJob for nmbd.service failed. See ‘systemctl status nmbd.service’ and ‘journalctl -xn’ for details.
[FAIL failed!

Can you help me?Never had that kind of issue.
Before you ask , I tried installing samba from app-store , situation was same.
Thank you for your future help

Did you install Samba manually before installing the App Store version? Did you purge the old version fully?
no Sam , I did full wipe of sd card and fresh install
@sam_nazarko , please see below some update:
(fresh wipe microsd , fresh image download 2016.04-1) after that, install sudo samba etc , the result is same:
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo journalctl -xn
