@haf Welcome to the Rockstor community and thanks for transferring this conversation to the forum from support email.
As per the error message:
i.e.:
systemctl status smb.service
and
journalctl -xe
Could you post the output of those 2 commands, run as root, on the Rockstor instance.
Also
yum info rockstor
to pin down the revision of 3.9.2 (you are likely on the last in that run though which was 3.9.2-57):
But we need that output to confirm the exact version installed.
@Flox Sorry to tag you on this as I know you are super busy but you’ve also successfully narrowed down a number of these samba start issues in the past. In a prior support email thread with @haf I’ve sighted the following threads here on the forum:
Forum posts to check out are for example:
As a start. Each thread in turn links to others that may help.
So with the output of those 3 commands we should be able to get you up and running as there are only really a couple of known issues and many folks are otherwise using the samba feature on both our older 3 and newer 4 varaints.
Hope that helps and thanks again for the report here.
