Detailed step by step instructions to reproduce the problem
I installed Rockstor yesterday. I created a pool, then several shares. NFS is working as expected, but trying to either open the Samba screen or start the service produces this error. After rebooting, the error was replicated/persisted.
Traceback (most recent call last):

@dwnomad Welcome to the Rockstor community. And your timing on trying out Rockstor is rather unfortunate I must say. Thanks for reporting this. You were rather unlucky on this one as the update that broke this has only just been release yesterday:
and we have an in progress issue on GitHub on the same:
And another forum thread with other reports of the same issue:
And finally there is a pending fix that should soon receive review / testing:
So hopefully this should be fixed in the next testing channel update, or at least soon there after.
Thanks. That explains it. Fortunately neither my wife nor I use Windows very often (I use Arch Linux and she’s on Ubuntu Studio 16.04) so it’s not a big deal for us.
