I just setup a new XOA instance, using the instructions by Tom over at Lawrence Systems. This is my second XOA instance that I've built, so I'm not an absolute newbie on it, but I am still learning a lot along the way.

Anyhow, I have now added 8 hosts to my pool, and I'd like to begin adding VM's and providing storage for backup / file share for them. In the past, I'd go to New --> Storage --> Select one of my hosts from the list --> Fill out the name and description --> Select Storage Type --> SMB ISO from the ISO SR subgroup. That then allows me to fill out the Server address, username and password. But after that, it usually takes me to the next pane for storage usage info and then summary so I can click Create. That's not happening anymore, those fields are not populating. I've attached a screen cap of what I'm seeing on my end.

Has anyone seen this before? I'm wondering if its a bug on my end? I've tired logging in to XOA from a couple of different systems and setting this up, and I get the same result each time, so I don't think it's a browser issue per say.

Thanks in advance for any help!

@MathieuRA Thank you for your efforts to get this fixed in such a timely manor! Would you mind pointing me in the direction of any sort of help document that explains how to update my XOA to the branch for fix-iso-smb? This would be my first time doing so. Thank you in advance!

@Danp thank you! Hopefully there is a quick resolution to the issue. I'd love to get this up and going. In the mean time, I'll try loading the ISO's locally to one of my machines for an install. Just a bit more tedious this way.

@olivierlambert @Melissa-FR

Hi Melissa, hoping you may have solution to this one? I'm a bit of a sitting duck until I can get these shares working so I can spin up some VM's.

@olivierlambert I'd be happy to, but I never have the opportunity to click on the create button, it never shows up. If you can take a second look at my screen cap above, that is as far as I get. The lower fields never do anything. I can't tab to them or click in them to fill anything else out to get to the "Create" button that is usually there. The last field that I have any editing power over is putting in my password for the SMB share, then I'm stuck.

@olivierlambert Ha, gotha! Here's the output of the last 50 lines of the log for the XOA I have installed on a Ubuntu VM:

@olivierlambert correct, from sources. I just went to check the logs, and the page is completely empty. I can see the menu structure at the top of the page

Servers
Users
Groups
ACLs
Remotes
Plugins
Logs
Audit
IPs
Cloud configs
XO config

But there's nothing but white space bellow it. Odd huh?

@olivierlambert thank you for your quick response, according to my about page, I'm currently on the latest stable version commit eedac on both XOA and the Master.

I just setup a new XOA instance, using the instructions by Tom over at Lawrence Systems. This is my second XOA instance that I've built, so I'm not an absolute newbie on it, but I am still learning a lot along the way.

Anyhow, I have now added 8 hosts to my pool, and I'd like to begin adding VM's and providing storage for backup / file share for them. In the past, I'd go to New --> Storage --> Select one of my hosts from the list --> Fill out the name and description --> Select Storage Type --> SMB ISO from the ISO SR subgroup. That then allows me to fill out the Server address, username and password. But after that, it usually takes me to the next pane for storage usage info and then summary so I can click Create. That's not happening anymore, those fields are not populating. I've attached a screen cap of what I'm seeing on my end.

Has anyone seen this before? I'm wondering if its a bug on my end? I've tired logging in to XOA from a couple of different systems and setting this up, and I get the same result each time, so I don't think it's a browser issue per say.

Thanks in advance for any help!

@TheiLLeniumStudios I'm trying to do something similar with Talos, were you able to find a workflow that worked for you since this post?

@olivierlambert Would also love an update on this, most of my use with XCP-NG is spinning up light weight linux disros to run k0s... would be awesome to skip this step and have a similar tool built into XOA/XCP-NG
