Trouble with Samba shares on old Blu-Ray player since December update

Help and Support

Perhaps we get a clue if we collect more detailed nmbd + smbd debug logs:

  1. Starting on OSMC device:
    sudo systemctl stop samba
  2. sudo rm /var/log/samba/log.*
  3. sudo chmod 777 /etc/default
  4. sudo echo 'SMBDOPTIONS=-d 3' > /etc/default/samba
  5. sudo echo 'NMBDOPTIONS=-d 3' >> /etc/default/samba
  6. sudo systemctl start samba

Now, reproduce your issue trying to access your OSMC samba server with the BD player

  1. Continue on the OSMC device:
    sudo systemctl stop samba
  2. sudo paste-log /var/log/samba/log.nmbd (and provide the returned URL here in the forum)
  3. sudo paste-log /var/log/samba/log.smbd (and provide the returned URL here in the forum)
  4. sudo rm /etc/default/samba
  5. sudo chmod 755 /etc/default
  6. sudo systemctl start samba

“-d 3” is the log level; if you want you can make a second collection and try highest log level 10 and provide these URLs as well.
